TOWN SEND 'i weird and fascinating interest. The scenery of Ni w Zealand laki's strongly recalls that o^ Swit/erlarid. Of this there are some excellent examples in IMr. Sinclair's drawings of Laki- Wakalipn and Lake iManipouri.

The Canailian Rockies and British Cohniibian pictures form one of the most attractive features of the collection. Messrs. Wadham's antl Sinclair's last exhibition in Lonilon proved a great success, and secured for them the distinguished patronage of 11 R.I I. tin- I'rince of Wales, M.R.II. the Duke of York, H.R.M. the Princess Louise and the Mari|uis of Lome, the Huke c>i Devonshire, and many other noblemen.

THE HERALD, Novemlier 27, 1895. We have previously called attention to the exhibition of pictures <>{ Mr. W. J. Wailham, I're- sident of the Adelaiik' I'^isel Club, and his iollea_truc. Mi. A.

I'hey do not give us sketches that seem to have been painted tVom the washings ^^i tlu' mustard pot. Their ^'-ies are blue, their trees are green ; they love bright colour and giMiial sunshitu-, ami paint as if t loved nature, and not as if they looked upon the world with dyspeptic eyes.

As a water-colourist, Mr. Wadham possesses tiualifications to ensure snci'ess. lie has a fine sense of colour, and a mastery of methods that tells i^'( yi-ars of palii-nt work.
