To the Editor of THE REPUBLICAN,:
Walking about the city Of Washington, have
been very much interested in the statues with
which the Nation has, at so much cost, adorned
the public places. In common with other visitors,
should like to know whose efigIes they arc, but
neither oil pedestal or anywhere else can find
any clue for whom they were intended. Only the
other dGy l was taking walk, and came to
beautiful little park, and on a magnificent pcdes-
tai saw a grand equestrian figure. / inquired Of
the first passer.by whose statue II was, and he
replied at once, General Meade. waited few
moments, and caught another citizen, and asked
him whose statue 1t was, He replied that he was
not quite sure, but he thought II was Custer. /
knew il did not look like Custer, 80 waylaid
another traveller "oh," said he, without a mo-
ments hesitation, that's Phil Sheridan, and
mighty good likeness too" and on he passed.
knew It was not Phil, so watched and waited
till tall, sallow, sun-dried looking individual
came along, and / asked him whose statue II
was. THAT" sir said he reverently raising his
hat, ais sionewall Jackson sir, one of the
grandest heroes Of the late war" and he passed
on sat down to reflect how much trouble the
government might have saved me and thou
sands besides, 10 say nothing Of future genera
tons, by Just having the name of the heio
carved in the pedestal The statue, by the way,
was the statue OF General Mcpherson.
