THE THoRwALDsEN srATUARY.
SKETCH OF THoRwALDsEN's LIFE.

Il.
Foremost among the works Of art on exhibition
stands Thorwaldscns celebrated group of Christ
and his Apostles. 1t deservedy attracts the marked
attention of all vsiters. We have already spoken Of
it, aud 1T Is now only necessary to allude to the
admirable taste with which it has been ar
ranged, and the judgment Mr.. Unawehr, q pupil of
the great master, is entitled TO the credit of this.
The group is the property of Mr.. Beck, the Danish
Consul, who has, at great cost, presented them
for the first time to the American public. Such
generosity as this we hope will be thoroughly APP
precated.
Mr.. Frederick Christensen, countryman and en-
thusiastc admrer of the great Dane and brother to
the architect Of the Palace, has furnished us with
the following interesting sketch Of the life Of Thor
waldsen:-

Gen. Quitman heartily responded and begged him
to testify to the delegation whom he represented and
to his old friends in Rhinebeck, considerations Of

rooms Thus closed one OF the most interesting and
gratifying interviews that has ever been had by the
people Of this vicinity.
