Walter Scott, to which Miss Edgeworth refers,—the only painting in the room,—is an original, by Leslie, hanging over the fireplace. Mr. Ticknor wrote to Sir Walter in 1824, asking him to sit for his young American painter, then making himself known in England, and invited him to Abbotsford. Mr. Leslie has recorded the experiences of his delightful visit to the Wizard of the North, in his Autobiographical Recollections. Autobiographical Recollections of C. R. Leslie. Edited by Tom Taylor, 1860.

This benevolence Leslie has made very obvious in his painting, while the intellect and the humor belonging there are notalter wished him to introduce one of his dogs into the picture, but after one or two experiments Leslie wisely decided against it. This portrait is mentioned by Lockhart; and Mrs. Lockhart's opinio

Best of all, she is kind and good-humored, and had invited very pleasant friends to meet us,—Leslie, Babbage, Mackintosh, and her brother, who was extraordinarily agreeable, and made us stay unreasonably late. We then made some visits P. P. C., and on coming home received many, which we were sorry to receive, because they were intimat
