VICE PRESIDENT, AND GENTLEMEN OF THE ACADEMY. WE have all of us, Gentlemen, very much to regret that our venerable President has been compelled by domestic calamity to relinquish the performance of the duty he had undertaken at our request. If he could have now addressed you, as was his intention, you might have received from one who unites the character of a distin guished artist to that of a man of letters, such views of the philosophy and the history of his profession, as can be given only b...y him who combines practical skill with extensive and critical observation. In attempting to supply his place upon this occasion, I can only speak as an uninstructed lover of the arts ; and, in speaking of what I have never practised, and have stu died but little, must necessarily confine myself to some general and perhaps vague observations. Our Academy was founded about twenty years ago, in the hope of contributing something towards the cultiva tion of taste in this country, and the diffusion and improve ment of skill in the arts of design.
