MRS. ELIZA BROWN, widow of Prof. John Brown, of Transylvania University,
who died in 1855, has painted a number of beautiful landscapes, the merit
of which is heightened by the fact that Mrs. Brown commenced with the
pencil at the time of life when arts efforts generally cease.  A Rhineland
scene, the "Yosemite Valley," a Canadian landscape, and an exquisite bit of
Minnesota rock and water, are worthy of special attention.  Mrs. Brown, in
1872, when nearly 70, for the first time attempted portrait painting, and
with extraordinary success, considering her age.
