to behave better in the future. And

A Piece OF Art.

When some months ago Mcssrs Baldwin q
Kuylc opened marble works on Main ST., antci
pating some fine pieces of work, we agreed to
keep our readers posted on the subject. Ycster-
day we made a visit to the Catholic cemetery to
see the new monument which they have just
erected over the grave of Ellen, wife Of james
McGrath, Esq piece OF work we had been
watching for many weeks. 1t is not only the
finest tribute of remembrance in the cemetery,
but has few if any equals in this section OF the
country 1t is of pure italian marble, 10 feet
high and 3ft. Gin. square at the base ana the
die alone weighs , tons, good indication OF the
monuments size. A clear description is diff
cult but we attempt it in our own way. The
shape is quadrangular, the sides of the column
above the die being relieved by sunken panels,
and the whole being surmountcd by lovely Co.
rinthian cap upon which stands cross with dra-
perry. This is all very pretty, but the beauty OF
the piece is the die the sides of which are sunkcn
oval panels Ton which is the inscription sur
rounding which In the upper semicircle is
heavy carved moulding from the cXtremities of
which drop festoons of roses lilies, leaves, &c,
forming the lower sem-crclc. The description
NAV not he clear but the work is nevertheless
most beautiful, The lower section of the base l.
relieved by raised oak leaves, and the upper sec
ton has the name "McGrath' also in raised
work. Taken all in all, the work has not, we be
licye, been equaed either in design or execution,
in the city, and Mr.. McGrath's inspecting archi-
tect from Chicago, said of ten big firms in that
city not two could present piece of art to equal
it, With this as a sample it is not surprising that
the tr;a is noted for their finer work, which is,
indeed, their specially, and one they are able to
maintain, the union of Mr. Baldwin master
workman, and Mr. Kuylc, q graduate Of one of
the h I European art schools, forming Il rare
comb .atiOn.
A., e othcr monuments which We notice in
thc -n0ps of Italian marble are those for the
graz. ur Geo. FULLER, Of Utica Isaac Pool, Sen

vile. ,,r. Bull, mother of f. T. Bull, Esq 1t
will %cil repay the visitor TO call either at the
cemetery or at the shops to look at these fine
pieces of work, which are no less works Of true
art than bust Of Apollo, or statue Of liberty.

The sanctimonious editor of the Republican,
who finds his pious feelings so deeply outraged
by the proposed Sunday picnic of the Hecker
regiment, is in danger of making himself and
the cause he stands up for manfully ridicu-
lous by absurd blunders. For instance, he wants
to know how Mayor Nicholson can make wei.
come speech to the ungodly crowd, when by 80
doing he must violate city ordinance. The cd
itor stupidity forgets that the proposed
reunion takes place both on Saturday and Sun
day, and that OF course the address of welcome
is to be delivered on Saturday. While We are
unable to state whether Mayor Nicholson is dis
tnrbed by any ghostly fears, any morehethan our
citizens generally, of having his religious eXer'
ciscs or usual Sunday quiet disturbed by picnic
out q hearing distance from the nearest churches
residences, he is happily left at perfect liberty
exactly as the editor Of the R1uJhcn is, and all
our people are, to keep far enough away from the
"impiOus" gathering to be in no sort OF danger
of being annoyed or in any way disturbed thereby.

REVOLUTION IN PRICES
Fall Goods Arriving at Hugh 0Iilen'.

Mr.. Gillen requests us to announce thus early
that he is already in the receipt of Il heavy new
stock Of fall goods, embracing all grades of dress
goods from the richest silks down to the plainest
print us well as full lines of shirtings, shectngs,
fannels, cloths, cassimeres, notions, &c., and an
especially rich display in shawls. Mr., Gillen
found full stock to select from, being among the
earliest in the market, and not only had his
choice rs to quality of goods, but every advant-
age in point of price, for he was just in advance
of the western fall rush which threatens soon to
send prices up kiting. He is therefore in posi-
ton to offer prices which few others will be able
to equal. Give him call and see for yourselves.
What he can do in dry goods he can also do in
boots and shoes in which he is able to sell lower
than ever before; while his vast grocery trade
enables him to give his customers all the adyan-
tages of the market in that line.
