We were shewn a Lithographic Sketch of the title page to a 'Native Melody', got up in his Journey to the Australian Alps, by Dr. J. Lhotsky; the execution is as good as could be expected in a rough draft and first attempt, and a little polishing will probably present to the public a very fair specimen of Lithography; we would suggest a Vignette to be composed of a NATIVE CHIEF, and the Doctor and his Horse in the attitude usually given to the 'Three Graces'![The Australian, 7 November 1834, page 2, column 5].
