The WANDERING JEw.-In the studio at
No. 2, third floor of Fox block, may now be
seen what Mr.. AKERs modestly calls a study
for head of the Wandering Jew. 1t is a
finished head in plaster. Brief considerations
may show how difficult a subject this fine
conception of Christian mythology fur
nishes for an art like sculpture. The Greek
Tithomus represented simply an immortality
cursed by ever growing and intensified mise
ries of old age. A physical representation of
Tithomus would only be hoary, shrunken,
shriveled to the very verge of actual mummy
hood. But the Wandering Jew, doomed to
unenviable immortality for cruel insult to
the Saviour'of the world as He Dor the heavy
cross on His own shoulders to the mound of
crucifxion, is doomed to immortal youth as
WELL His wretchedness is not physical but
thousand times worse-ut.er loneliness and
WEAKNESS in the midst of perfect health and
strength. Here is a deeper and wiser thought
than that which created Tithomus, and it is
fully rendered in the sculptured head. The
forehead is low, almost brutal, as would be ex-
S-PSNpSus sAo hooO POI maps IOO vulgar 10
be Jewish; but the weight of years rests
upon the head, gently bent forward, sorrow
full years, which of themselves lend dignity to
the once undignifed presence. Every fibre of
the thick long hair, pushed straight back from
the forehead, is instinct with vitality, coarse,
strong, luxuriant. The large eyes, which
have seen so much, are weary, and the great
lids dropped over them with an expression of
utter despair. pF ee
1t is plain that Mr. Akers has net mistaken
his vocation. This work conirnes the indica-
tons OF his previous medallions and busts.
Portland owes herself aud him, therefore, a
twofold duty. She owes to him sound, faith
full criticism, kind but inspiring. She owes
it to herself, to keep him here, if not always,
then at least as long as possible. Canadian
freigbts are well, but there are other things
which should be dear to those who have the
good name of the city at heart.

muse fortunate enough to be familiar with
'ns biographical Studies of Ritter, lately
onsred 10 English readers by the present trans
iator' Will be ready to welcome this little volume
with especial favor. 1t is much less abstruse in
thought and style than its predecessor and
therefore better adapted to popular wants, while
it is, at the same time, a ssmasterly application
of the comparative method of Geography. as
philosophical as it is poetical and interesting ;,
1t is only within period comparatively recent
that Geography has come to be treated not as a
mere aggregate Of unorganized facts, but as A
science, dealing with great and complicated re-
lations, and embracing all that we eau know Of
our globe. In producing this desirable change
no one, if we except Humboldt, has done more
than his countryman, friend and fellow aborer,
Ritter. The translator of these works has rem
dered valuable service to popular knowledge,
and they can hardly fail Of a favorable recep-
ton.

the Charleston Mercury of Jan. 18th, issued
while yet that city was under rebel rule. The
leading article is headed, ''MEN RUN MAD

to the Richmond government for Its imbecili-

comes In for its share of censure, is charged
with "playing dry nurse to the President"
