Philadelphia Museum.


IN THE UPPER APARTMENTS OF THE STATE HOUSE.


This splendid establishment for the display of the works of Nature and Art, is the fruit of individual perseverance, now rendered worthy of the patronage it receives from the state legislature.


No museum in Europe contains a better-collection of quadrupeds and birds, the latter of which is unrivalled in beautiful arrangement and appropriate decorations; nor is there any where to be seen a more extensive gallery of ori- ginal portraits, of characters rendered interesting during the American revolution, or by their talents and genius in auts and sience both in Europe and America. The collec- tion of portraits was Erst begun by Mr. Charles Wilson Peale, and has been continued by his son Rembrandt, especially with many of the most distinguished characters in Europe; besides this, the fishes, insects, minerals, and numerous miscellaneous curiosities, render it the resort of all stran- gers. It is here professor Barton makes his demonstrations in natural history to his pupils.


The museum has lately undergone a general improve- ment, in the arrangement and display of the articles, the extention of the rooms, and particularly the addition of the manunoth and other skeletons, Indian figures, dresses, ca- moes, spears, bows, arrows, tools, Grecian busts, &c.


All the articles that were in the marine room are now hand-omely displayed in an upper apartment, and their piace occupied by the stupendous skeleton of the mam- moth, Indian figures, &c. The long room is consequently disembarrassed of several projecting cases which impeded- the movement of company, and interfered with that neatness of display which now prevails. The quadruped room is much improved and the anatomical curiosities are arranged in an apartment by themselves.


The new series of portraits are better displayed, and the old series put into complete order. The whole establish- ment comprises a magazine of facts and knowledge calcu- lated to interest every class in the community, and to inspire that curiosity by which it has grown and must continue to be supported.


During the winter season, it is elegantly illuminated on the evenings of Tuesday and Thursday, and much resorted to hy strangers as well as citizens, as a place of rational and instructive recreation.
