JEFFERSoN's STATUE TO DE REMOVED.
The Washington correspondent OF the
New York Herald writes:
Old Commodore Levywas remarkable
for his bravery and his admiration of
Jefferson. BE was, in short, an original
Democrat, and had no love for Cesar.
More than quarter OF century ago,
and while commanding the European
equadron. he employed celebrated
Italian artist to make him full length
statue OF Jefferson, which be had cast
in bronze. This statue he brought
home and presented to the Gcyernme ent,
with request that it be placed in o
conspicuous place in one OF the public
grounds. A Wing Congress made an
attompt to refuse the gift, but Webster,
moro generous than Congress, came to
the rescue. and, being friend of the
Commodore, he had it accepted and

word, and is to-day proceeding to carry
out his com mands, anu the statue OF
Jefferson, the gift Of the brnvc old
Commodore, is bound hands and feet
with ropes. ready to be lifted from the
place where it has stood for more than
quarter Of century and to be placed
in IN obscure part of the grounds. away
from public view. Congress did not
authorize this work Of vandalism, nor
did it make my appropriation for the
work now being done in front of the
White House. Gen. 0. E. Babcocl1
now assumes the entire responsibility.
Tie worst feature of the whole affair is
III the fact that in the place where the
ntatns stood an unsightly iron fountain
is to Oc placed, suggesting very differ
cnt thoughts. So much for Jefferson 8
dislike OF anything like C;csarism. It
will be remembered also that Commo-
dore Levy purchased Monticello, the
house Of Jefferson, and resided there
until the outbreak OF tho war, when,
like Farrngut, he was forced to leave
Virginia on account Of his loyalty.
Levy died few years ago, and in his
will hc bcqueathed Monticello and all
its valuable relics to Virginia, stipulat-
ing tilat she should keep it in good pre-
seryation, which, it is to be regretted,
has not been done.

TIE VIRGINIA CASvAss.-The New
York Times repudiates the idea of Pre-.
sident Grant taking any pnrt, directly
or indirectly, in support Of Col. Hughes,
Radical candidate for Governor OF V,r.
gin;a. 1t gives out the impression that
the President will not interfere under
any circumstances, rs it would rot be
consistent With his idea of the dignity
Of bis Office. The country will rejoice
to know that Gen. Grant has taAon this
step. 1t is certainly commcndabIe il
the President to express SO much consi-
deration Tor the propricties Of the high
oihce to which he has been elevated.
But how comes it that the President is
so solicitous now? We recollect very
distinctly, just before the Presidential
election, that every member Of tho ca.
Dlnes' VINO could make speech, was
pressed INTO service in Virginia and
North Carolina, and even Alderman, the
then Attorney General, put in IN ap-
pearance IN Georgia, but his efforts wero
US feeble as the results which followed
tnem. The statement in the Times NAV
DO correct. II so, Gen. Grant is I'M
proving, and there are hopes that he
may yet learn something of the oblica.
tlors assumed and the dnties imposed
upon the President Of the United States.
In any event, however, whether the Ad-
mlnistrauon supports Hughes with the
power OF the Government or not, it will
not change she final result. The people
OF virginia are aroused and determined
to carry the State in the interests of law
order, peace, prosperity and liberty, and
the Democrats will carry the State by
fully 10000 majority.
