Columbus is represented in the full Spanish

right foot planted upon the earth. An Indian
woman, who is the first to see him, is rep
resented in a startled or surprised attitude,
while near the left foot of Columbus is his
sword, which was drawn from the scabbard and
thrown upon the ground, indicating his peaceful
intentions. The woman, although wearing about
her person the girdle, worn in those times of
innocence and guilelessness by the "natives
of the Forest" has, under the excitement of the
