The EvE"-HirGm Pocers, Sculptor. The
statue OF Eve OF the most exquisite productions
of our gifted countryman, Hiram Powers, has, af-
ter many vicisstudes by and land, been safely
deposited i'll this city. The statue belongs to John
S. Preston, esq, of South Carolina, and shipped
some two years ago on the Westmorcland. The
vessel was wrecked near Cartha gena, and il was
reasonably feared that the beautiful figure was
lost or ruined. few months since it was recov-
cred, and found to be uninjured by water, having
been SO slowed in the ship to be completely pro-
tected. IL is also unbroken and unmarried, after
all the rough usage which it has undergone. This
is attributed to the peculiar manner in which Mr..
Powers boxes his work, leaving the statue perfectly
free except that the pedestal is firmly fastened at
one end of the box, and two very thick pieces of
plank pass over and under the body just below the
arms, hodingit perfectly securcnnd dispensing with
any sort OF packing. The "Evca flor glimpse
Of which we were indebted to the politencss of
the firm to whom it was consigned) is piece of
work that will do honor to the already bpnored
artist. This exquisite representation of the mother
of all living is of fesize standing with the right
foot supporting the body and the left resting light
ly on the ground, holding in her right hand the
apple, and in her left two others still attached to
their stems and leaves, the head is slightly inclined
to the right and the features of that cast which
denotes the interruption of some purpose just re-
solved upon by sudden doubt as to the conse-
quences. The enemy is coiled around the stump,
rising from the pedestal and around the feet Of the
woman, at some little defiance, his head restn e
just far enough around to the face of his victim,
and yet to keep his own visage unseen. The posi-
ton of the statue (still in the box) would not al
low just inspection appreciation of its beau
ties, 80 that we can only say generally that it APP
pears entirely faultess, and in every particular q
great and perfect work. Ii is due 70 Mr.. Powers
that the public should have opportunity of see
ing this exquisite creation, and the disappointment
will be very great if it is taken from the city with
out having been publicly exhibited.

The advice and example herein set forth (says
the Kniekrboeker) are from the pen Of an old and
genial friend, who follows, and is and does, pre-
cisely what he describes
Toll not for fame, nor a sounding name,
Strive not for wealth nor power;
Whose clings to these failhless things
Is cheated every hour.
I'D spend my life away from strife,
With my wife and children dear;
I'D have cot in sheltered spot,
And pleasant ncighbor near.
I'D work each day in quiet way;
would, read, and write, and talk;
And I'D sometimes ride by the rivers side,
Or enjoy an evening walk.
I'D do what good soccer could,
Regardless Of praise or blame;
And when at last my days past
Have my children do the same.

CoLoRED CoLoNlzATIoN.- III Meetings. at Neto York.
A meeting of the Liberia Emigration and Agri-
cultural Associations held at New York on
the 9Th instant. The object, it stated, to
aid ia the promotion OF civilization in Africa by
the introduction OF agriculture on an extended
scale, and thereby open field for the reception of
all who may require its support. The plan pro-
agent to Liberia as soon rs supplies are col
ected. whose duty it should be to clear lands and
build houses
Another meeting, held at one of the colored
churches, was more numerously attended. re-
port, favoring emgation to Liberia, was refused a
reception. Resolutions were adopted "disavowing
sentiments set forth in the reported proceedings of
two meetings, purporting to be held by colored
residents, and expressing continued adherence of
the colonization scheme in all its phases, whether
promulgated by the American Colonization So
ciety, or by renegade colored men, made under
the guise of an emigration society,"
A meeting has also been held at Terrence Hall,
for the purpose of receiving the report of Lewis
I'll. Putnam, who was denounced at the above
meeting, with regard to his agricultural enter
prise in Liberia. In the report il was stated that
farming had been commenced in Liberia In April,
1850, and the progress made from that date to the
9th June last is of the most encouraging nature.
The immense wealth which may be derived from
the culture of coffee, cotton and tobacco, in that
country, induced them to hope that by the force OF
example they may do much to aid in settling the
question in reference to the utility of Liberia
asylum for colored people. Liberia owes her ex-
istence to the Colonization Society; and, although
She prejudice against it is serious drawback TO the
emigration OF those who would otherwise go to
that country, yet our actions must harmonize with
at until we can dispense with its aid. The report
was unanimously adopted.

Probably NOT TRUE.-The morning papers pub

leans, to the effect that the Spanish officers who
arrested Lopez have been assassinatcd." This is
called "Important, if true, from Havana" Its inn
Portance and truth are equally equivocal Lopez
not arrested by Spanish officers, and the tenn

and his band does not justify the superstition that
any one would be assassinated for arrcstipg Lopez.

The Courier and Enquirer publishes the follow
ing synopsis OF the news from the River Plate
brought by the clipper ship Eclipse, which arrived
at the port Of New York Monday:
''The intelligence from La Plata to the eff
feet that the alliances had succeeded in or two
engagements against Rosas, and that Urqulza
Temporarily in command) was pushing on towards
the capital OF the Banda Oriental Oribe, IL Is re-
ported, had also been defeated, and was receding
on 70 the Argentine territory, followed closely by
the Brazilian forces and portion OF the command
under Caxias. This intelligence we have verbally
We lind little in our files received from kio either
OF contradictory or conhrmatory character
'sFrom the Commycio del Plata we learn that
had been occupying the departments of Colonin
and Soriano; but this is no indication that the peo
pie there had entered into participated with him
in his conspiracy. The Commerce. says that Cen
eral Garzon, in compliance with his appointment
general in chief Of the Oriental army, had occu
pied Salto the 23d July. General Oribe had gone
from Cerrito on the Goth July, with 300 men, to
join the main body of his army at San Jose. The
COmmerci0 designates the conduct and movements
of Oribe as characterized by extreme vacillation
and timidity; but no reliance can be placed upon
the extreme partisan aspect which that journal
lends TO the difficulty. Oribe s possessed OF less
perseverance OF character than Rosas; and, sur
rounded he is by difficulties and traitors, il 10 not
strange that he should be guilty OF yacillation, IL
not open hesitation.
''Some correspondence, according TO the same au-
thorites, has taken place between Rosas and the
British minister, Sir Henry Southern, on 'the
unparalleled aggressions of the Brazilian govern
ment.' On the 18th of August, in reply to propo-
sitons for an amicable Intervention on the part of
the British government to put stop to hostlities,
Rosas enters into long history OF the whole diff
culties, and concludes with expressing willing
ness for such Intervention, under certain condi-
tions. The chance for peace. however, from this
mediation, appears extremely slight. Ii does not
appear that MIR. Southern insists on the stipula-
tions of the treaty of 1925 whatever may be his in
structions on the subject from the Home govern
ment hereafter. "S~
