SCULPTURE SHOULD BE BIoGRAPHY.-
1t a commonplace remark that statue
should be something more than a likeness.
If all we required were the precise resem-
blance Of the hero or philanthropist, Madame
Tussaud could give us in wax much
more completely that Thorwaldsen ever pro-
duced anything in marble. II the point be
to show some great act that Lie performed or
trial that he suffered, this could be done by
painting much more distinctly than by sculp-
ture. What We desire Is work which shall
show our hero in relation to his age ard
country generally, and not to some spot OF
ground or moment of time in particular, and
still be pleasing as work of art. 1t should
present the summing up and substance of his
life. 1t should not be an anecdote, but
biography. There is nothing new in these
ideas, but they seem to be strangely forgotten
by those who have charge of these under
takings. OF course, all this is very difficult to
accomplish. 1t was very well for the Greeks
to set up in their temples the images of the
contemporary victors in the games, whose
forms indicated the perfection OF manly
beauty, and whose drapery, if it was necessary
to add that, fell in harmonious lines. An
ugly costume, too, may be rendered so inter-
esting by association, that the mind tempers
It's angulafltIeS 10 CuS eye. Oucu WAS Jne
queue and cooked hat and long-skirted uni
form of the great Frederick and the gray ca
pote of Napoleon. But what can an artist
do with the personal deformities and ugly
dless which may be closely associated with
our ideas of contemporary personages?
What can be do with the gaunt frame of Mr..
Lincoln, or the peculiar clothing of Mr. Gree
ley? Mr.. Peabody, the philanthropist, had
foot which seems to have been modelled upon
the sameigenerous scale as his kind heart:
and story has not forgotten that in the statue
benin the London exchange, where the
enormous shoe is quite obtrusive and thrusts
itself into the face OF the spectator. To an
swer this difficulty, we would cut the Cor
dian knot. 1t is a mistake to erect statna
to man who has not been dead for. at least
halfa century. Indeed. it might be wen to
delay it as lonS as the Roman church nost-
pones the canonization of a saint. We should
wait until we can assign to the departed wor-
thy his true place in history, and forget the
Ugly features o his person and his dress
There may be time, perhaps, when our de-
seendants will fail 10 remember the awkward
trousers and bushy chin-tuft of Abraham
Lincoln, and believe only in the prophetic
pathos Of his homely countenance.-W. H.
H0ppin in atlantic.

KEEPING APPLES AND GRAPES.-AEples
to be kept through the wiuter or til. well in
to spring. should be picked before they are
quite ripe, or just as they reach the point OF
rpening. To gather sooner will deprive
somewhat of the flavor, though the preserv-
ing quality will be improved Ha ndle care
tHlly when picked, and as little as possible. so
as to leave intact the oil-coat that coyers the
fruit, which is an aid to its keeping. Have
tue barrels at the tree, and transt er from the
basket, putting in the best, such as are wish
ed TO be kept Each sorting of ap pies, or al
most any fruit, is hurt. Let it Il len be done
but once, and at the tree, Remov the bar
rels to an out-building, and leave there i'll
the sweating operation has passed and the
fruit is dry Then remove to the fruit -hOnse
or cellar. Sweating commences at once, anil
the barrels should therefore be left open. or
at least partly, so as to give chance for erap-
Grafton. When put into their place for win
ter, head up, leaving a little space half an
inch wide; this to give chance FOR slight
circulation of air. IF the air is rather dry,
let there be less ventilation; more if moist,
and accordi g to the amount of moisture.
Apples will rapidly dry and shrink when ex-
posed to dry air. A cellar will in general not
bear the exposure. much less a iruit-room,
As to grapes. there are some sorts that will
not keep; these are the thin-sklnned. A
thick skin will prevent rotting and retard
evaporation. Happily there is goodly num-
Der of this kind that are well provided with
good envelope. Among these are the Isa-
bella. Diana, Clinton, Rogers No. 4 and 9TH
ers. Select only Iipe fruit, and free from all
unripe or bruised berries. Spread out, where
the air has free access, in some out-room or
open chamber, and exclude artificial heat un-
less in cold weather. Then the air Il tile
rarified will aid in the curing, that is in dry
ing the stems, which is the object in expos
ing to the ar; for the stems, in green state
when the fruit is boxed. will evaporate their
moisture and establish mould. Dry stems
will not. In week or two your grapes will
be fit for boxing up. Two or three layers
may be put in box, with some soft, dry ma
terial between the layers of fruit; also cover
the bottom and top with the material; paper
will do, dried leaves, cotton, &c (; but do n OF
close up tight. Treat in this respect the
the same as with apples, temperature in
cluded. Grapes will thus keep till into spring
aud be the better in flavor for the keeping,
though less plump, having parted with some
of their moisture. But this concentrates and
improves the liquor. Our best eating of
grapes has been in March and April.

SOWING PEAS IN AUTUMN.-The RlraL
Neao Yorker has practiced sowing peas in the
Fall, and obtained earlier peas than by Spring
sowing. We recommend two precautions:
Selecting a soil rather light, cr else sprink-

the row, if the soil is heavy, to prevent crust
ing; aud avoiding proximity to grass or litter
which may invite mice.

THE NEW DREsszs.-The difys,eros in

greater length OF the tunic or polonaise. the
plainness OF its cut, the ABSENCE of that sr-
perabu dant trimming which has tended tn
disfgure choice materials, are, it will be con-
cede1, great improvements on the STYLE which
have preceded them. Moreover, the trained
dresses, it must be distinctly understood. are
for evening or indoor wear. Street suits
should not more than touch tue 5rouud, and
it is is still better if they are allowed to clear
it. The gabrielle style Of dress promises to

arrangement at the Jack. upheld by small
tournure. The sides remail very fiat, and the
fullness is by no means SO exaggerated IS for
