The Masonic Statue of Wa hinston.

This exquisite work Of art has received much
less attention than it ought to have done
since 1t has been here People took up an idea
because it was exhibited at so much a head

1t has been exhibited only to make up the
price engaged to be paid for 1t by the Masonic
Lodge OF Fredericksburg. The Lodge is weak
IN numbers, aud the tax upon individual mem
bers would be enormous.
