The objection is male tothc design Of put
ting up q statue Of Horace GREELEY in Printing
House Square, that it is not usual to cree, statues
Of living men. This objection is of no moment.
Living men Of great emincnce have been honored
by statues in tunes past the most recent Instance
being the statue OF Prof MoRsE in the Central
Park. Besides what intrinsic difference is there
between a statue and q full length portrait
None whatever. Yet such portraits are frequent
in all public institutions. For instance the por-
traits Of all the Governors of this State hang in
the City Hall, and several among them, we arc
happy to say, are still living men. The notion
that the statue Of distinguished citizen may
not b. made during his life as well as his por-
trait in oil, is absurd.
