We have received copy of the Transactions of
the Apollo Association Of this city, for the year
1o42. The Committee of Management state that
the abors of the Association for the year have been
far successful than they had reason to expect.
The annual exhibitions of private pictures loaned
for the purpose, have been discontinued, as they
were thinly attended and unprof,able: and the
rooms of the Association now thrown open both
to members Of the Association and to the public.
This less formal display it is thought will be pro-
ductiyp OF moro good to tho Arts than ,hA o,har
plan. One thousand dollars has been appropriated
for line engraving Of Vanderyn's celebrated pic
lure of" Marus on the Ruins of Carthage" which
gained gold medal at one Of tho exhibitions OF
the Louvre when that gallery contained the
choicest works of art known in the world. Ihir-
ty.6ye pictures were purchased for distribution
during the year. The amount received tor sub
scrplions during the year $4,000, and the
total sum expended was SAB. The Association
has petitioned the Legislature for leave to adopt
the name of "American Art-Union, instead OF
that by which they are at present knewn' ana
has also employed gentleman to visit the Princs-
nal cities of the Union to make the Objects OF the
Association more widely known and to solicit sub
scrietions in its behalf.
