PuwERs' STATUE OF WASHINGTON De-
sroyE Among the most valuable works. of
art desu;oyed by the late FIRE in Richmond
was the. superb Masonicstatue of Washington,
which was made in Italy by Powers, the cefe-
brated sculptor, for Lodge No. 4, of Frede-
rcksburg, where the distinguished hero and
statesman was first. Initiated into the arts and
mysteries of Masonry. The marble from
which the statue was made was oC.the purest
characters and upon which scarcely a'colored
spot was perccptible, while in point of ,artis;-
tic execution it.is believed TO have meyer been
exceled., Since the first occupation Of Fred:
ericksburg by the United States troops, alter
the breaking out OF the war, this statue has
been in Richmond, and when frat received
there it was put upon exhibition at tho mar
Bile saloon of Mr.. j ohn ". Davies, on Ninth
street, where it for some time attracted crowds
of admiriug spectators from all parts, OF the
South.
Subsequently, when Davies was required
to vacate to the Confederate Goyerninent hi.
SALOON in the Mechanic Institute. building,
the statue was, by his order aad under bis
immediate superintendcncr, iaciosed II tie

Of granite, securely bound arounI &ith iFonI,,
in order 10 more secare'y preserve it from
harm. 1t was then transferred to an outhouse

ed Up to the time it WAS destroJ.i by the lire.
The effect of the fire has rendered it entirely
worthless ard fragments arc NOW scattered,
for some distance around. s5gshe features and
limbs are almos; crumbled into powder, but
the body. still remains embeddcd,in the ruiz

GooD NIGnr.-How commonplace is
the expression, and yet what volume it
may speak for ell future timel We ney.
er listen to its passage that this thought
does not force itself upon US, be the tone
in which it Is uttered ever so gay. The
lapse Of few fatal hours or minutes may
surround and hedge It with horrors, that
al the million words which lifetime hAs
recorded, these two little words alone
shall seem to be remembered. Good
night The little child has lisped as Il
passed to = brighter morn than ours;
the lover with hts gay dream Of nuptiai
morrow the wife and mother, ell the
fragile threads of household cares still Ia
her fingers; the father with appealing
eyes Of childhood all unansweE1d. Good
night THAT seal upon days past aud
days to come-what hand so rash as to
rend aside the veil that hides its tO-mOr.

VERY BAD LIQUoR. The business Of the
Court in one Of the frontier territories
was drawing to 4 close, when one morn.
ing rough sort Of customer was ar.
raigned on charge of stealing. After
the clerk had read the indictment 10 him
he put the Question
Guilty or not guilty.
Guilty, but drunk, your honori' an
swered the prisoner.
What's the pleai asked the Judge
half doing on the bench.
He pleads guilty, but says he wal
drunk, replied the Clerk.
Whats the case 2
May it please your honor said the
prosecuting attorney, 'the man is regu-
larly indicted for stealing large sum Of
money from the Columbus Hotel
He Is, heyH and pleads
9. He pleads guilty, but drunk
The Judge was now thoroughly aroused.
Guilty, but drunk k-this is most ex-
trsordinary plea. Young man you are
certain you were drunk?'
Yes, SIR
Where did you get your liquor!'
AT Sterritt's.'
Did you get none anywhere elseH'
Not drop, SIR
'You got drunk on his liquor and Af.
terwards stole the money!
Yes, SIR
Mr.. Prosecutor said the Judge, do
me the favor to enter in that mans case
nolle prosequi. That liquor at Sterritt's
is enough to make a man do anything
dirty; got drunk on it myself, the 9TH
er day, and stole all Of Sterritt's spoons!
Release the prisoner, Mr.. Sheriff; adjourn
the Court
