Mr. S.T. Gill, whose reputation in every branch of his art is now so thoroughly established, has cleverly drawn on stone a lithograph, "No, 1, The Meet," representing a bush party preparing to go out kangaroo hunting in the interior of Australia. This picture, which is of a tolerably large size, is carefully printed on good paper, by Messrs. Allan and Wigley, of this city. The rude wooden hut in the wilderness, slim dogs, and strong, swift horses, with the colonial Nimrods and their attendants, form altogether a very pleasing and lively group.
