A MODERN COLOSSUS.

The New Workers seem ambi-
tious of the renown which has dis
tingmshed the ancient Egyptians,
and are to have erected in their
harbor a statue, intended, we pre-
sumo, to rival the COLOSSUS at
Rodes. The Nashville AMERICAN
says
The casting of the colossal statue OF
Liberty to be erected by Frenchmen
in New York, is now going on near
Paris, and we are given an idea of the
great size of the statue by the state
ment that the shoulders are over forty
feet broad, and the head twenty-three
feet high from chin to crown, 1t is
also said that u man can easily con-
ceal himself In some of the folds OF
the drapery. The statue is to be com.
memorative of the good will between
France and the United States, but it is
to be utilized as lighthouse ia New
York harbOr.

HEALTHY DIGESTION.

In regions where Liver complaint and its
consequences, such as Dyspepsia, Loss of APP
petite, COstiveness, Piles, Sour stomach,
Chills and Fever, Foul Breath, Restlessness
at night, ,Flatulency Nervousness, Affections
of the Bladder and Kidney, Sick Headaches,
&C., prevail there has long been felt the need
Of a medicine that would act specifically on
the Liver, restoring its normal functions and
at the same time be safe from after bad
effects and so simple that it might be used
by any one. 1t is claimed that Dir. TUTT's
LIVER PILLS supply this want, They act
directly on the Liver, and their constant
use will not injure the most delicate consti-
tuition. They are not recommended as a
universal cure all, but simply for diseased
Liver, and those maladies which follow it's
arrangement. As purgatiye medicine they
have no equal; their action is uniform, pro-
ducing no gripping or sickness Of the stomach.
In their use no change of diet or occupation
is necessary, Is Murray 81.

shown are remarkable for their origi-
nality and for the ingenuity and pa
thence lavished upon them. There are
numerous indications here of a higher
artistic quality than the japanese are
generally credited with. The most
curious specimens of ingenuity is the
carving of the interior of a diminutive
ivory skull,
The japanese were long ago famed
for their skill in the combination and
alloy of metals. The bronze material
of this display is therefore of the first
quality. 1t is in the modelling and the
preliminaries to the casting of the
brOnzes that the peculiar genius and
perseverance of the people is disclosed.
The models are done in wax. In that
material everything down to the small
lest feather of bird 8 wing or the
hair of o spider is elaborated with
scrupulous care. Afterwards the mould
Is prepared thus A man sits down
and proceeds to paint wax model all
over with coating of finest sand,
held toghter by fire-proof muciIage.
The first coat is laid on with exceeding
care, so as to fill every tiny interstice.
So with the next and the next, and
the next coat. So on with hundreds
of coats of this fine sand, until some-
times half year is consumed in the
work of painting n cumulative mould
three or four inches thick around the
wax model. When the mould is thick
and strong the model inside is melted
away, the bronze is poured in and the
whole vase, or statue or whatever it
may be, is wrought in a single casting
The mould now the she'll is subse-
quently removed with care and pains,
only second to those employed in its
construction, leaving the bronze with
out crease or flaw.
From such a process emerged the
magnificent bronze Incense Burner
which stands at the entrance to the
japanese Exhibition, vessel elevated
upon worn sea-rocks inhabited by a
dragon, and surmounted by an eagle
and flanked by flOcks of birds. The
design and the work manship display
ed on these principal features of it are
so characteristic that there was a con
test for its possession. An agent of
the Pennsylvania University was anx-
ious to get it, but the price, 81 800, was
too high for his allowance. Professor
Archer, of the British Commission,
has bought it to take back to the South
Kensington Museum.
The pair Of HiZen vases, priced at
$1,000, which are exposed at the front
of the japanese Pavilion, are little
less admirable than the bronzes 1t is
not the forms and cOlors only, but the
value of these things as calandars of
national art and skill, which makes
them interesting.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT AT CHATTANoo-
GA John, lad about thirteen years
of age, son of Christopher Jones, who
was employed at the Roanoke Iron
COmpany's rail mill was sent yester-
day into the fan to tighten some bolts.
The engineer, not having been inform

The right leg was stripped of flesh be-

broken that amputation had to be
made in the upper third thigh. The
left leg was broken i'm two places, its

Senator j. II. McCullOch's
Speech.

We have been served with Texas
papers containg the speech of DR.
McCulloch urging the nomina-
tion of Gov. Coke for United States
Senator. The DR.. is native OF
this County and we publish his
sublime peroration, of which the
Central TEXAN says:
During the recent Senatorial contest,
DR.. II. j. McCullOch, the distinguish
ed representative of this constituency
in the Senate of Texas, donned his
ethereal robes and moved amid the
political heavens side by side with
Coke toggled to the American eagle.
The Doctor evidently was strong on
Coke, and this was master effort of
its sort. Our people should congratu-
lat themselves on having this gentle
man secured as their Senator for the
long term. He drew it!
The following is the concluding
flight of the Senator;
True it is, that God has showered
his blessings upon the South, and
particularly upon Texas. Every MEM
ber of this Legislature Is aware of the
fact that the emblem of the nation has
been beaten down by the tempest of
corruption into the narrow detiles of
wild and eXtravagant enthusiasm, -
The people of the South would have
been pleased to see "A clear sky, and
the remnant of war clouds sail in
serene and gentle majesty like ewing
ed messengers of Heaven,n along the
azure deep, but our Northern brethern
preferred to see them rush through
the bowling heavens like billows
from the pit of darkness, charged with
angry lightnings and stored with
magazines of thunderbolts of fanati-
cism. For awhile the eagle of our
country dashed to and fro, buffeting
the storm with her strong wings and
waking the echoes of the Western
world with her wild cry vainly en-
deavoring to find some way out Of the
dark and high-walled prison of Fred
Douglasism, Butlerism, Blaineism,
frenzy and oppression.
At length, thank God in the fall OF
1874, she dashed up with scream OF
triumph through the awful storm of
Radicalism, presenting to the eye of
the defender of the Republican and
Democratic principles of l776, grand
and imposing spectacle, as her silvery
wings reflected the vivid flashes of
the enemies artillery, when she
balanced herself on the winds, and
gradually lowering, alighted on the
dome of the Capitol Of the nation to
pick her plumes over Conservative
and Democratic Congress.
Now, Mr.. President, and gentlemen
of the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives, yOu see why we cannot, in
justice to the South and the State of
Texas, support Judge Hancock. All
things considered, L have made up
my mind to vote for Governor Coke,
the champion of the Democratic party
of Texas-a party that is the true de-
fender of the constitutional liberties of
this country.
Here the Senator was again inter
rupted when he took his seat amid
cries of Ego on.n

THE EXHIBITION.
Some Remarkable Features of
the Exhibits by Japan.

INV ~ ONHe's
The New York WORLD, alluding
to the wonderful workmanship Of
the Japanese at the Centennial,
says:
The cabinets, some Of which, scarce
ly larger than modern music-bOX,
range in price from $l25 to 81 900. In
the decoration of these and many 9TH
er articles the grotesquerie of Japa-
nese art is employed without glare or
vulgarity. Gilded carvings enrich
them, and sparks of vivid color occa-
sionally flash forth like jewel-glints.
Overspreading all Is that glossy, trans
parent varnash or enamel which has
never been successfully initiated in all
the "Japanningn done outside of Ja-
pan. Here are cups and saucers of
wood as light as corks, colored with
reds, blues and yellows protected by
this varnish, which will Withstand

And soon they will pass from the portals OF home
The Wilderness ways Of their life-work to roam.

The mantle of shadows is yelling the light
And may be-God knows-on this sweet little face
May fall deeper shadows in life's weary race.
Yes, say it-"God bless my dear children pray l''
II may be the last you will say It for aye
The night may be long ere you see them again
And mOtherless children may call you In vain.--
Drop sweet benedietions on each little head,
And fold them in prayer as they nestle in bed
guard Of bright angels around them invite,
The spirit may slip from the mooring tonight.
