INTERESTING RELIc.-At the funeral of
Bishop Neumann, in Philadelphia, a large
ivory crucifx was placed above the head of
the deceased, as the body lay in state The
relic possesses a rare interest. One of the
former U. S. consuls to Genoa, Mr.. Lester,
was at one time engaged in visiting the differ
ent places of note in that city, when he met
with monk who was carving out of a solid
piece of ivory crucifix, upon which he spent
many years of labor, and to the perfection of
which he gave his undivided attention Mr..
Lester became particularly interested in the
sculptor and the work which he was produc-
ing, and he purchased the crucifix at consid-
cradle price. He then sent it for inspection to
the renowned sculptor, Powers, with direc-
tons to him to make such Improvements upon
it as he might think fit. Powers held it in
his possession for six months, at the end of
which returned it, stating at the same time
that the figure was a most perfect work OF
art, and could not be in any way Improved.
When MI. Lester arrived in this country, he
sold the cross to the Cosmopolitan Art Asso-
citation for the sum of ten thousand dollars, and
at the Association distribution it fell into the
hands of a schoolmaster in Lancaster county,
IN this state, from which it was purchased by
the deceased Bishop, who, upon many occa.
slons since, has been heard to say thatn no mon
ey on earth could re-purchase the treasure.
From the size of the crucifx, it must be infer
red that the ivory belonged to the tusk of an
animal which existed ages since, as no ele-
phant in modern times could supply an equal
amount Of tusk. The ivory, when found, was
a black mass, like coal. The second coating
was of a yelowish tinge, and the last pure
milk white. Those who have seen the figure
never fail to mention it as a work fit to secure
the admiration of every lover of the beautiful
in art. The veins i'll the body are distinctly
visible, and every muscle and ligament in its
exact position

The END OF LONG STRIFE.-When Bona
parte seized the Spanish throne, the colonists
of the La Plata provinces threw off their allie
glance to it. But they only exchanged despot-
ism for anarchy. Buenos Ayres, the province
controlling the mouths of the rivers and con-
centrating the most wealth, commerce, and
population, undertook also to arrogate the
most power. The inland provinces refused to
be domincered over. War between city and
country broke out. They have been fighting
each other with occasional intervals for half
century, sometimes RS distinct states, some
times confederation, sometimes as a constit-
utional union, sometimes as subjects of a die
tatorship. Success at first perched alternately
on the banner of each section; but, later
Rosas, as Captain General welded an impe
rious sceptre in behalf of Buenos Ayres over
all the rest The inland provinces at last
asked the help of foreign bayonets. England,
France, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay came
to their aid. Before such a coalition, OF course,
the power of Buenos Ayres, went down.
Rosas was cxed, few years ago, and Ur-
quiza, the leader of the inland provinces, has
gradually gained one advantage after another
until finally his sway has become undisputed
The last arrival announces the formal with
drawal of Buenos Ayres pretensions. Here
after the metropolitan province consents to be
on equality with the rest. The armies are to
be disbanded, constitution adopted, the debts
paid, and peace promises at last to prevail on
what has been nearly fifty years the theatre of
war.-Abdny Evening Journal.
