Frankenstein's Paintings.—If any of our city readers have a taste for landscape painting, we advise them to pay a visit to the room of the Committee on Private Land Claims in the Capitol, where they will find a Cincinnati artist of singular merit, but all unskilled in the art of forcing himself upon public attention.

Mr. Frankenstein is also a portrait painter, but it is in landscape he excels. Nowhere in the city of Washington have we seen more exquisite pictures, truer in perspective, nicer in coloring, more faithful to nature, than his pictures of scenery in Northern Ohio.
