As onu of the party of Americans now making the grand "tour d« luxo” of Europe, it has just boon my privilege to see this work a* it is being developed in the studio of Andrcont hero iif Koine, writes a correspondent of the New York Advertiser. KHONT VtltlV OP HTATUtt AMD PBDK8TAT,. Tho shops into wldoh we wjjre shown by a courteous attendant wore busy and extremely interesting places, whore work could bo seon in every stage of progress, from the rough block of marble to the finished statue. Above all oho towered the colossal figure of Columbus, twenty feet l)igh, surrounded by a largo plat form, where the men, with hammer mid chisel, were busily ut work. A small window in the roof overhead admitted tbe daylight, and a powerful lamp hung from the rafters, ready for use when necessary as did a curtain or screen of rough burlaps, in artistic lines, oord wlthT ‘flw hold tih’ the period, the richly embroidered dou blet or WRlstfioat thrown back, revealing a kilt that falls in easy folds from a bodice drawn tightly over the broa^ chest beneath. Not only the attitude of the figure, but the expression of the face, is commanding, and as you look upon the clearly cut features you seem to feol instinctly the preseoco of tho man of genius nud power, which the ar tist lias forolbly portrayed. Close at hand stood the plaster cost which was usod ns a working model for the reproduction, covorod with tho regu lar, tiny marks necessary in making ineniuraments. Tho copying from tho model, whether tho reproductiou shall be of n corresponding Bine or in to lio en larged or reduced, is all iloue by exact mathematical calculations. As we followed our guido about tho shops wo booh discovered that tho real manual labor was chiefly given ovor to the sklllod workman. These employes not uufrequently spend n lifetime ill one studio, aad become by tlioir faithfulness and dexterity almost indispensable to tbe artist, for his part of the work is practioally douo when the clay model is finished. All tho fluer grades of work ami the larger pieces of statuary must of neces sity be made from the Carrara marble, ns the softer nud mere easily worked qualities arc found in very thin strata but a few feet thick and suitable only for small pieces which may bo quickly and cheaply dono. In another part of tho building wo found a second group of men gathered about the figure of Genius, which will be placed ou the front of the pedostai It is a little nrr seventeen feet high amt is represented as u winged ingel bending over tho globe, which it is intently studying while held beneath the opeu band. On the sides of the base, between tho massive posts which form the comers Mill be found the inscriptions, and, though they may not read the same, their import wilt he very similar to tho old couplet which we used to sing in the school days of long ago, saying that— In fourteen hundred auct umety-two Columeus sailed the ocean blue. On the I rent and back of tbe base the corresponding spaces will be tilled with iwu magnificent allegorical pictures in Dase-renei representing tne departure from Spain and the landing in America by Columbus. The latter one is particu larly impressive, and the story is most graphically told by the strongly drawn group, of which he is the principal figure, standing in uu attitude of prayer up on the soil of the New World he lias just discovered. To tbe left arc his sail, urs drawing tho keel nf a boat upon the rand, aad on tbe right the tudians peep cautiously out from a thicket of maize at the strange creatures whom they mistake for the messengers of the Great Spirit. The beautiful shaft is of great height, tbe severity of outline being broken by alternating lines of figures in relief of the prow or rostra of a ship, and medallions composed of an anchor and a ( coil of rope. When completed the monument will bo 121 feel high, Including tbe four great blocks or steps which form the founda tion, and, aside from the historical inter est It may have as a work of art alone, Its posses-ion might well bo envie I by suy city or nation. This great work was designed by l*ro- lessor Gaetano llusso, who was bora in Cateniu, Sicily, flfty-seven years ago. Craving opportunities for study and im provement, ho made his wuy to Rome when a mere lad but ten years old. In this great art centre his genius developed early, nud his later years have been tilled with success. Wc found him pleasautand courteous, though he is said by friends who know him well to have it variable and exceed ingly nervous temperameot, u character istic which often accompanies the gift of genius. It was also whispered that he entertains mi almost morbid aversiou to personal notoriety. We that as it may, this late grand cunt qition of bis Cannot fail to bring him naw laurels at home, and win a greater fame for his distin guished name across the seas. Governor’s island, in the Ray of New York, wns first proposed as being an eligible site for the statue, but wo have been informed try n most reliable author ity that because of its greater accessibil ity Jlatierv Park will be chosen instesd. A more fitting spot could not bu chosen, for there the daring navigator may over look l he vast commerce of the New World ns it passes daily at bis fcot. We canalitiost fauoy him unbending from .1 fidty to exchange a neighborly i God doss of I.r iioii with the Goddoss of liberty the bay, or indulge in a bit of ;tioo some lovely summer night as he Itand* revealed in the light of the great torch whioh she holds aloft, Nor could anything be more appropriate than that he should be first to welcome Ids coun trymen lauding upou the shores of America. Costly Statues. The famous Colossus of Rhodes, which has been described so often that the sub ject is hooomlng threadbare, costs 300 talents, or about $.'175,000 in United States currency. Hut the above is a trifle compared to tho price paid for a colossal statue of Mercury, made for the city of Avcrni, in Gaul, by Eenodorut. The artist was engaged on this great work for Ion years, aud the total cost to the city was $1,775,000. What the gold pud Ivory statues of Athena, lit tho Par thenon, or th.' E "Us at Olympia, both of Which were made by Phidias, cost, is not stated by any auoieut or modern author. Athena was arrayed in a mov able drapery of pure, unalloyed gold, whioh weighed forty talents. Tho coin value of the drapery alouc, according to tho above figures, would bo $580.1)00. ino l.ean ot tne Olympian fteus was covered with locks of pure gold, each weighing six mime, or about the value of $25,000 in United States money.— Ornnha Roe. A Remarkable Hide. Six officers ot the Hessiau Dragoon Guards, headed by Captain Winsloe, Siartcd ou a long distance Inst Thursday. Their object wns to ride six hundred kil ometres (about three hundred and sev enty-three miles) on the same horses in (ix days. Their destination is the H» variuu Chateau of Mundizol, beyond the Danube, and the result is looked forward lo with keen interet, as a considerable part qf the way is mountainous, and tho (lent during two or threo days was quite tropical. .Several of Captain Winsloe's brothers tiro oava'ry officers in the Qer- pian army. Another was tho first Ger man officer who fell in 1870, during the famous reconnoitre of Major Zeppelin.— Loudon Standard. Turning nn Oltl Coffee Xlli Into a Work Box. A clever girl has found an ingenioue use for an old codec mill whose grind ing days are over and has converted it into a particularly good work box, which is as ornamental as It is useful. With a Sharp chisel and gauge she carved a simple patteru in flat relief on the four' (ides, the top and the drawer. These she sandpapered perfectly smooth and polished with beeswax. In the inside of the box she put a gathered silk lining, tnd around tho handle made two pin cushions, one oil the lid of the box and the other at the extreme end. The drawer wns neatly mind papered and polished, and served as a receptacle for jpools ol thread.—Now York Tribune. A Talking Hocking Itlril. Mrs. H. 11. Marshall, of tho Millndge- vllle Hotel, has the most remarkable mocking bird in Georgia, or any other jltate, ns to that matter. She lias a par rot of first rate garrulity, and it is duo to this fact that tbe bird has won such dis tinguished accomplishments. The two fire kept in separate cages near each other, and when tho bird had learned to mimic the music of every other kind of bird it caught the speech of tho parrot, and can now talk much plainer and with a wider vocabulary than the parrot it self. It can whistle almost any tune it liears, while a few strains of “Comrades” (eem to he its favorite. Thera is nn old colored preacher in tlie city who usually stops in front of the hotel and offers a prayer for tho host and hostess. Mrs. Marshall generally gives him a lunch for his spiritual inter est, and sometimes raps ids sincerity with an insinuation of unbelief in him. I)n yesterday, when your correspondent was standing in the hotel, John came along and piuning himself to the pave ment, offered up his usual prayer. As soon as he said "Amen," the bird broke out: "Ah, John, you won’t do,” and followed this up with a "ha, ha, ba," that even beats his genial mistress. Tho bird is tho most remarkable one in ex istence, and there is no cud to the inter- est he and Polly furnish during n heated Conversation.—Atlanta Constitution. Our rtnt Lighthouse. The first lighthouse built on this con tinent was at St. Augustine, Florida. Its chief use was as a look-out, whence the Spanish people of the town could see vessels approaching from Spain, or get notice of the coming of foes in time to run away. The tower attracted the at tention of Friucis Drake as he was sail ing aloug the coast with his fleet of high-pooped ships, on iris way home from pillaging the cities of th* Spanish Main. So he stopped long enough to loot the town and destroy what he could not take away. In 1380 the ancient structure of Coquina rock, which the (Jutted States had adopted for a light house, fell down, but before that hap pened another one had been constructed. Fire-towers at theeutrance to ports were established in the earliest historic times, lioufires were built ou top of them at night. The most famous lighthouse of antiquity stood on the island of Pharos, off the city of Alexandria, in Egypt. It was one of the seveu wonders of the world, and was put up during the reign of Ptolemy Phitadelphus. After stand ing for 1600 years it was destroyed by an earthquake. It is understood to nave beau over 500 feet high,—!}.».on Cq|y. VHtor. Why Grunt Ordered Corned Deer. After General Grant had returned from ltis trip around the world, be was being banqueted by the City of Chicago. The table was covered with all the delicacies of the season, but General Grant seemed Distraught. Presently he arose and flipped behind a screen to where the carver was at work. "For goodness sake,” said the General, "cannot you bring me a big plate of corned beef and cabbage? I am tired’of all these kickshaws and long for a bite of good old corned beef and cabbage.” Needless to say, the General’s request was complied with.—New York Jour nal. The Csar an« Disciplinarian. A story Illustrating the rigid discip line of the Russian army, in which the emperor playod a loading part, is told by C. Johuston: "One of tho grand dukes told tho czar Hint a sentinel on the level crosslug at Petcrhof had re fused to raise the toll bar for his car riage, although the train was not due for threo or four miuutes. “It is against orders, your imperial highness I I can't do it, your imperial highness I” the soldier replied, the rulo being that, once the toll bar is shut, It must not lie opened until after the train lias passed. Tlie czar said ho was very glad to hoar that the soldiers knew how to obey orders, ns discipline was the very life of the army. Tlie grand duke laughed, but said he was certain that if the czar him self had been presont discipline would havo given way before the imperial pres- cnee. “The emperor did not reply, but s few days attcrwf.rd put the mattor to tho test by drivtug up with the empress to the level crossing just after the toff bar was crossed. "The emperor called the sentinel of the day to let him pass. The sentinel, in dire trepidation, saluted, but did not stir to tho bar. 'Open the bar, 1 tell youi’ cried the emperor; ‘don’t you know who I amf’ ‘Yes, your imperial maj esty I I know your imperial majesty, but I can’t, your imperial majesty! it’s against orders, your imperial majesty I' answered tho sentinel, still saluting, and turniug almost blue with anxiety but not moving au inch from his place. ‘I am the emperor, and I command you to opeu!’ cried the czar again. ‘Can’t do it, your imperial majoety,’ despairingly cried the sentinel, still standing firm, but too disooncerted to note the smite in the emperor's eye. Just then the train passed, the emperor burst into a fit of Homeric laughter, aud warmly com mending tho astonished sentry presenced him with a twenty-five ruble note and drove back to the oalace."—Ohicagi Herald.

N. l\ F. S. A. WISE WORDS. Bogan to Save Souls Early. A rescue seldom equal lei for bravery was accomplished by theological stu dents at the wreck of the steamer Calu met on Lake Michigan, Novombor 23, 1889. They were assisting themselves in a course of study at Evanston, III., by noceptiug employment as surfmeu at tached to tho lifc-iaviug station there. The disaster occurred near Fort Sheridau, flftoou miles away, and thu crow of gal lant youug fellows was summoned to tht socno by telegraph. Five of them reached tbe scene at 5 a. m., in one of the most severe storms of recent years. The thermometer was only ten degrees above zero, and the sleet aud raiu wer« blinding. After dragging their boats and apparatus through woods and over steep hills, they found themselves on a bluff opposite tuo vessel, which lay half a mile from shore, too far to bo reached by a shot-line. Nevertheless, they low ered the boat with ropes into tho sea, lauuchei her against desperate chances, made three trips and saved all ot tho eighteen persons on board. — Washington Star. The largest raisin producer in tuq United States tiros in Yolo Cpuuty, Cal., who has 1200 acres iS bearing. Tho largest raisin vineyard in one field is 9(h) acres m TsiUrp Can a tv- Cat, AU men are alike when U comes to' death and dollars. Forturue has rarely condescended to be the companion ot genius. A man has his clothes nude to fit him. A woman makes herself fit her clothes. A man is a cat, and tho people too often shut him up in tbe same room with tho canary. A girl of sixteen teems to know of no other uso for her nose than to turn it up at people. Pleasure may be had, but it comes fearfully high. Nothing in the world costs so much. When a woman makes up her mind to marry a mao there is no escape for him except to marry some other woman. Don't say you would amount to more if you had the opportunity; if you have the ability you will make the opportu nity. Man never pretends to tell a woman the truth. Men learn to lie to women when they are courting them, and never get over it. We should miss a great deal that is valuable in liumau nature if we confined our attention exclusively to important personages. A woman is good because it comes natural, men are never really good until they have tried being bad and found that it didn't pay. The trouble with getting a boy to bos in a garden is that ha digs up so mauy grub worms that tempt him to run off and go fishing. A gentleman is one who understands and shows every mark of deference to the claims ot self love in others, and exacts it in return from them. When they are engaged they act ashamed to show how mech they think of each other; and after they are mar ried they arc ashamed to show how much they dou’t. Parting with a dear friend at tlie grave is a great deal like parting with one when you start on a journey and leave him behind. You cry the first mile or two, and believe you will cry forever; but soon you become interested in new scenes, new people, and new ex periences, nud forget him.
