renee, Italy, the hands made there from
Hart's original model to replace those OF
the statue OF Clay which were destroyed or
distigured by bad boys. Mr.. Hart under
took the work OF making these hands only
a few weeks before his last illness, but being
unable to sec it completed provided in his
will that it should he done by Il faithful
workman whose skill and fidelity he knew
we'll. The bands are elegant specimens OF
the caryer's craft. and are cut ont OF mar
BILE OF purcSt white.
The broken hands are to be taken oh at
the wrist. Just under the hem OF the coat
sleeves, and tho new ones put in their place
Il delicate and somewhat dangerous opera
ton. The making Of the hands cost $500 in
gold: the freight about $50 more. To put
them in place will cost from 800 to $50.
The Governor, however, does not propose
to have the hands affixed ut present. lie
will wait until the Legislature meets, in hope
that it will provide for removing the statue
from its present exposed position to one OF
safety.
By some it is proposed to remove the Clay
statue to the portico OF the Capitol-an att
mirablc suggestion, provided the portlco Is
made accessible to the people.
II the portico is kept shut up to the gene
raj public, as at present, the statue might is
we'll be boxed up and stored away in the
