Da. HonArro STONE.

Ita4ords us pleasure to extract from the
Washington correspondence OF the New York
Times the following complimentary notice o.
gentleman whose merit as an artist is only
equalled by his modesty as q gentleman. 1t
is as follows:
"Sometime since the members of the bar of
New York determined to procure a marble
bust of Judge Nelson, of the United States
Supreme Court, to be placed in the law library.
The execution of the work was entrusted to
Horatio Stone, esq.,, native OF New York,
whose studio has been in this city for some
years past, and who is destined at no distant
day to fill prominent niche in the column of
his country's artistic fame. The Judge was
not aware of the object for which his bust was
sought, but nevertheless kindly accepted the
invitation of the sculptor to SIT for the piece.
The model has just been finished, and it is but
just to the worthy artist to say, that it is with
out a fault in the estimation of connoisseurs-
fact which the gentlemen of the bar of New
York will doubtless be interested in knowing
"The modesty of the artist is only equalled
by his merit; and, as | know personally, his
entire avoidance of all effort to become known,
except through his works, has operated to keep
him in the background, while men of less ge-
MUS, anu UlOIc otli dSouIauSC abu PiSt'hoibHoJ
have become known to the world. One of his
recent achievements is marble bust of Chief
Justice Taney, executed to gil an order from q
number Of the most distinguished practitioners
at the bar Of the Supreme Court Of the United
States, / hazard nothing in saying that it
cannot be excelled. 1t is the admiration of all
who see it; and, at meeting Of the bar not
long SINCE of which Hon. Reverdy johnson
was chairman, resolutions in the highest degree
complimentary towards the artist and his work
we're adopted"
In addition to the busts spoken of above,
there are others that deserve the highest enco-
miums. Among those others, we will take the
liberty of mentioning two one the bust Of ex-
President Fillmore, the other of Colonel Ben
ton. They are, to our uncultiyated eye, perfect
specimens of art. The bust Of Colonel Benton
is the very image Of the original, and if there
be one fault in it, we cannot discern it. We
regard DR.. Stone ms destined to great distinc-
.tion in his profession. The path of the artist
is full Of difficulties and distractions. His un
RENTING labor, and his constant anxiety, are
hardly repaid by the highest rewards and the
largest fame. We sincerely hope that Dr.
Stone will realize both, for he deserves them.

of March, the date ,ofhis alleged escape. His owl
admissions were also offered in evidence by the
prosecution and admitted by the court, although
objected TO by the defence. Mr.. Force, of Rich
mond was then examined, when the case for the
prosecution closed, and MIR. Dana commenced the
closing argument for the defence.

IL Sick Headache Rcmedy.-A remedy for
the sick headache, which has been recently offered
to the public is attracting great attention. not only
by reason of the very satisfactory testimonials TO
its efficacy which have been volunteered by many
who have been benefited by it, but also because
there are so great number of people who are at-
hicted with the distressing complaint, for which
no medicine has before been made public. DR..
Eastman, who discovered the efficacy of his "rem-
edy,' is physician in this city, in high standing,
with large practice. He is physician in whom
great confidence is placed and we do not wonder
that his remedy for a very common disease, which
has been so ongneeded has attractedthc attention
of all sufferers from headache who have heard oft.
From our own knowledge Of DR.. Eastmans char
actcr and practice we have no doubt that the med
cne deserves the favor it receives and that will
prove to be great benefit to all who may give it
a trial.--Lynm Nc,cs, December 90, 1853.
