strange story.


The London correspondent of tht
Round Table says.
London is often filed with rumors o.
a nsuppressad princess" here and "a "beg.
gar nobleman" there. How much truth
there raay be in such floating stories
Heaven only knows. That the Princess
fodena lately died in the Marylebone
sorkhouse is certainly true, and it is
true that an Indian princess was the sub
iect of letter in the Times lately calling
attention to her distress But lately a
very strange pamp1 r. was published in
Bristol, giving story of this kind with
more than ordinary veracity. 1t ia the
autobiography of blind man named
James Davis, we'll known in Bristol,
where he goes about playing concertina
In the streets and receives such half

MEAD's MODEL OF THE LINCOLN
MONUMENT

The model for a monument for Abraham
Lincoln, which has been made in Italy by our
distinguished townsmau, Larkin @. Mead, Jr.,
has just arrived in New York, where it will
be placed on exhibition. The Boston DAILY
Advertiser makes the following highly COM
plimentary notice Of it
Mr. Lnkin @. Mead, IT,, the well known
Vermont sculptor, has made the design Of a
monument for Abraham Lincoln, which he
has sent from his studio in Florence to New
York, where 1t will be exhibited. We have
seen photograph OF this design, which is Of
Corin:hian column, supporting a colossal
figure of Lincoln, and resting on pedestal,
with broad octsgonal base. The Presidents
figure is in simple modern costume he
stands, with thoughtful, downward look,
lightly holding pen in one hand, while the
other ia laid upon the national shield at bis
side. -Four groups, representing the du'
ferent branches OF the military service, occu-
py as many corners Of the recedlng and pro-
iecting sides Of the octagon, and around the
base passes a stairway of seven steps, with
the figures Of four boys upon pedestals, look
ing westward from the column. Of course,
the groups on the base are the most striking
| features Of the monument, and they give, IN
vivid action, the spirit Of the war with which
| Lincoln's name will always be associated.--
One group is Of ARTILLERY, another Of sailors
manning gun third is of infantry in bat
! tie the fourth is superb and powerful ex-
preston in sculpture Of the furious onset oi
cavalry. Mr.. Mead had happily the expert
ence, in camp and under FIRE, during some
months service in the engineer corps of the
Army of the Potomac, which could best quail
ify an artist for the faithful execution Of THESE
groups. The graceful figures of the youths
below represent a sailor boy, bugle boy and
hig boy the bas-reIiefs in the base are de-
parture of volunteers, the sanitary hospita
and women nursing the wounded and sick,
man of-w war in action, aud veterans returning
home. On the pedestal Of the column is
tablet for an inscription.
The excellence Of this design will commend
itself No one can look at it without feeling
the force aud originality Of the genius whict
has been tempered, not tanned, by study Q
the best art in the Old World, and which ha
, already given the young Vermont sculptor a
enviabe name.

GEN. LEE ON SUBMISSION TO AUTHORITY.
We have previously noticed the appoint
ment OF Robert 4. Lee to the Presidency
of Washington College, at Lexington, Va.
10 his letter Of acceptance he says: 1T is
the duty Of every citizen in the present con-
dition Of the country to do all in his power to
aid in the restoration of peace and harmony.
and in no way oppose the policy OF the State
or general government directed to that OBJ
ject" And in another place he remarks !:
ut is particularly incumbent to those charged
with the instruction OF the young to set an
example of submission to authority" The
Board of Trustees of the Institution have
called meeting, and in series of resolu-
lions "heartily concur in aud fully indorse
the sentiments so we'll expressed by Gen. Lee /;
sentiments that cannot fail to commend them
selves to the approval OF the President Of the
Un,i,ed States, and to the unqualified assent
of all sensible and virtuoas citzsns."
