STATUETTE oE THE PRESIDENT ELEcr.-At
the Falmouth Bazaar may be seen sitting
statuette Of Our President elect, nich was taken
at the special request of the Union League
Club in New York. by the new and wonderful
process know as photosculpture, Gen. Grant
posing for it in person. 1t is one of the best
portrait statuettes we have ever seen, and far
exceeds the finest efforts of photography in
giving us an accurate impression of the indi-
viduality of the General. Not only is there an
excellent likeness of the face, but there is an
almost living presence in the natural and char
acteristic position of the whole figure. 1t is a
faithful representation of this great citizen in
all the unaffected simplicity and quiet strength
and sagacity of his character.

The following facts and figures, obtained by
us from the official records, will set at rest the
falsehoods of Seymour and Others relative to
the cost of the Army and Of Reconstruction :
There were 1883 troops on duty in the five
Military Districts on the list of January, 1858
OF these, 2,725 were serving exclusively against
the Indians, leaving 1928 for Reconstruction
purposes. This last number includes the gari.
sons Of the seaeoast forts, which would be re-
tanned if no necessity for troops existed at the
South, just as is done at the North. The cost

The telegraph in the hands of Rebel Demo-
Gratis pictured the recent disgraceful riots at
Milliken, Texas, as the sanguinary work OF ne
groes. The slower mails bring the Texas news
papers, and they testify that the riots were in
cited by rampant Rebel Democrats who sought
pretext for killing colOred Union men. Gov.
Hamilton concurs in this testimony. Fifty ne
groes were killed, but not one white suffered
serious injury. The Rebels had taken the pre-
caution to disarm the men whom they intended
