Sheffield has produced two poets of very different metal, James Montgomery and Ebenezer Elliott, both genuine; and a sculptor, Chantrey, who was apprenticed there to a wheelwright. The railway communications of Sheffield were long imperfect, they are now excellent. The clothing districts of Yorkshire are united by two lines.
Was Mr Hilton's picture offered by the Vicar and Churchwardens? The Secretary to the Royal Academy. Yes, it was offered by them one of the Churchwardens was the late Lord Maghermorne he was then Sir James M'Garrell Hogg he was a great friend of Sir Francis Grant who was the President, and he offered it to him for the Chantrey Collection.
"I am always lecturing them about it, but they go on growing just the same." "And how they make you feel an old fogey before you know where you are! And I thought I was quite a gay young fellow, upon my word!" "You, my dear Chantrey! why you'd be a gay young fellow at ninety!" said Mr. Fullerton. The Professor laughed and shook his head.
"I saw my wife step in here," he said, holding out his hand to her, but attempting to pass her and to open the door before which she still stood. She could not speak for a moment, but she kept her post firmly in opposition to him. "My wife is here?" he asked, in a sharp impetuous tone. "Yes; oh yes!" cried Ann Holland; "but wait a moment, Mr. Chantrey. Oh, wait a little while.
The hired parlor-maid was whistling for a cab in the service of some other departing guest; so Julie herself put Lord Lackington into his coat, much to his discomfort. "I don't think you ought to have come," she said to him, with soft reproach. "Why did you have that fainting fit before dinner?" "I say! Who's been telling tales?" "Sir Wilfrid Bury met your son, Mr. Chantrey, at dinner."
She must have perished without it; but unfortunately I speak to you as her pastor, in confidence she has grown fond of it." "Fond of it?" repeated Mr. Warden. "Yes," she answered, emphatically; "I leave the cellar entirely in Brown's charge; a very trusty servant; and I find that Mrs. Chantrey has lately been in the habit of getting a great deal too much from him.
But notwithstanding the multifarious tastes displayed in these collections, and the artistic chaos they represent, we can, when we examine them closely, detect an influence which abides though it fluctuates, and this influence is that of our discredited Academy. The Manchester and Liverpool collection are merely weak reflections of the Chantrey Fund collection.
He had gone as a drunkard into the presence of his Judge. The death of Richard Holland might have had a salutary effect upon Sophy Chantrey, if it had not been for the shock of learning how deeply she had disgraced herself and her husband in the sight of his people. She felt that she could never again face those who had seen her on that Sunday morning.
He told me a gipsy told him of the success he should have in life, and how it would be endangered by his own heat of temper, alluding, I believe, to a quarrel betwixt him and a brother barrister. May 23. I breakfasted with Chantrey, and met the celebrated Coke of Norfolk, a very pleasing man, who gave me some account of his plantations.
I have known men, ay, and women, who have not dared to pass close by the doors of a tavern for fear lest they should catch but the smell of it, and become brutes again in spite of themselves. Others have not dared even to think of it. If Mrs. Chantrey be falling into this sin, there is no other course for you to pursue than to banish it from your table, and, if possible, from your house.
