We understand that Mr. Earle is under an engagement to take a panoramic view of Sydney, in order to its being exhibited in London. We would strongly recommend this excellent artist to forward the materials for a peristriphic panorama, which, by presenting consecutive views, would afford a more lively and impressive delineation of the rising capital of Australia, than could be accomplished by a mere perspective view.
