Councillors at Cross Purposes.

It if a singular fact that Messrs Reynolds and Buckley have voted against each other in ovcry division in the Legislative Council since they became colleagues. Last night there was an exception to the rule on an unimportant division, and the other mem bers co'.cbratcd the occurrence with a round of applause. Shipping Supplies-A Crisis in the Council. A popular [lyric, refering to attempt to make men sober by act of I'urlioment, says: —" D— their eyes if ever they tries to roba poor man of hi* beer." Ih this democratic community it seems even a " lord " may be robbed of that liquid rofro'hment which some considers a essential lo their comfort, Such, I am told, i-i the secret, of n certain rny.-terious lnlf hour.-! deliberation in the Legislative Council yesterday. The Hon. _\lr Nurse (perhaps an advocate fol nun-imf by the ''bottle') rose to ask a question, but tho proaense of " strangers" was at once remoiked, and the vulgar crowd hail to withdraw while tho noblo assembly discussed the serious question of the power ot ' prohibi tion orders" within the precincts of the Houoe. What result was arrived at I know , not, but 1 hope it was in the direction of giving our M.L.C.'s tho fullest liberty to haunt1 Bellamy's shades.

A number of comic pictures were also exhibited, and received the special favour of the children. Tho entertainment passed off very successfully in every way, . and when the lantern projected Uood nicht" on the screen, the children dispersed well pleased with their evening's amuse ment.

THE ART EXHIBITION.

Wk havo already referred to the principal pictures, but two or three of them demand a more extended notico than has yet been given, J. M. Gaul's two largo canvases (Nos. 5 and 17) wore described as being unnatural in colour, and from that opinion, after a further examination, wo see no reason for differing. The treatment of both is broad, and shows force. In tho former, " Sunset Effect," tho light on tho snowy peaks is well managed, but tho shadows are much too blue; they me, in fact, brighter than the substance ; and how the birds llying near the surface of tho lake could throw such curious shadows is a puzzlo. In the moonlight scene there has been [treat straining after effect, with the result of exaggeration. _ Tho foreground is nearly black, tho objects in it, if any, being uiuiistinguishablo. Surely some lights might havo been introduced to dissipate tho prevalent sombreness. The water on which tho moon is shining co brightly seems unnatural both as to colour and handling. Mr Sharpe's landscape (No. 22), which gained the 2nd prize in tho first competi tion, is marked with clear, accurato, and laborious drawing. Indeed, it is as a draughtsman that Mr Sharpe oxcels. His colouring is usually cold, as is tho cafe in the two pictures hung in close proximity. The sky is warm in No. 22, but fnils to lend its glow to tho foliago and tho hill*. It strikes ono as strange that pictures in oils and in water-colours should compete in tho same class, as has been allowed by tho Art Studonts' Association. Mr Sharpo's water colour contends for the prizo with oil pictures by Mr Keesing, Mr Stuart, etc. Tho ordinary method, that of making two classes with separate awards for each, appears to us to bo tho natural one. Mr Sharpo's view of Sir G. Croy's house at Kawau (No. 20) displays somo admirablo foliago, tho largo tree in tho centre being particularly good. The pictures by Mr S. Stuart all show tho marks of great labour ; it is evident that caro and pains have boon bestowed on com position and execution alike. Somo of his trees are admirablo portraits of tho real thing, especially tho puriri in No. 31, "Scene on the Anawata," where, however, the adjacent ferns are not so successful, being somewhat still' and formal. The effect of the whole might have been heightened by a littlo more light on the water, which seems to bo flowing over a stony bed. Of Mr Stnart's canvases it may bo said generally that they lack warmth in the colouring, and are too sot, though in the latter respect this artist, has improved. Of Mr Watkins's picture (No. 1), " Autuiuwl Evening on tho Vaikato," wo have oiilp to say in addition that it will maintain the reputation he lms won among the New Zealand artists. Ho has been, as usual, highly successful with tho water and tho foliage. The clouds strike us as being hard and solid, and, in deed, scarcely like clouds at all. Mr S. R. Keesing's landecapo (No. 8), " Canoeing on the Mangawhara River," won the gold medal, and, presumably, was regarded on exactly tlio same footing a? Mr Sharpe's picture, without any allow rnco being made on the score of youth or inexperience. If so, wo cannot help doubt ing tho justice of tho award. Mr Sharpe's exhibit is the production of a skilled work man, and both in detail and iv total offect (though tho mediums aro different) is far ahead of tho one to which tho judges awarded tho prize. It i« not at all strange that it should be so when it is considered how many years Mr Sharpe has been engaged in wiolding tho brush. In further justification of this judgment wo point to the woollincss of the background ,of MrKeesing's canvas, and of tho foliage on the banks, and to the general lack of force in the whole composition. We venture also to enquire what kind of tree is that which occupies th.c left of the picturo ? No. 18, a morning scene, is, if anything, inferior to its companion. The colouring ot the flax, grass, and other foliage on the river banks may be like nature, but wo are sure that there are but few who will recognise them as such. The cabbage-trees to the right are curiously fluffy and woolly, like none that grows near Auckland, it may safely bo averred. Not to put too fine a point on it, they resemble inverted mops rather than trees. Mr Keesing's fish picture (No 34) is, in onr judgment, his most successful exhibit. It runs close tp Miss L. White's water-colour (No 05), which secured the first prize. Both show very careful and truthful work, and it is difficult to decido between them. Mr J. Gully sends one picturo, which un fortunately arrived too late to bo hung in a suitable position. It is numbered 77, and will be found close to Mr Martin's ad mirable photographs. There cannot be two opinions as to its merits : it is tho gem of the collection. It is entitled, "The Seaward Kaikora Mountains," whose snow clad heights form a majestic background. Tho treatment is powerful, clear, and harmonious. The meaning of the whole is evident, and strikos tho spectator at first view. If there is one part of the pieturo less carefully finished than another, it is in the loft coiner, where there is an indis tinctness not ovident elsewhere. Our water colour artists would do woll to learn a few lessons of Mr Gully, especially in the matter of colour. We hope to notice the rest of the pictures in another article.

Tho barmio Antarcs left for LyHelton in bal last, to load for London, at it o'clock fhia moan ing.
