desert upon Shendy on the It'll of
January The distance from Korti to
Shendy is 200 miles, and General Wolseley cal
culates the march will occupy sixteen days, un-
less he meets with opposition from the enemy
on the route. A simultaneous movement will
be made from Suakim against Osman Dlgma, IN

of the Nile expedition of General Wolse-
ley. General Stephenson will leave Cairo
for Suakm on Wednesday, to assume command
of the expedition from that place Major Cherm-

A GAMBETTA MEMORIAL.

An Extraordinary Monument Which it Is
Proposed to Erecti in Paris.
Paris Letter.
The historian OF the future may perhaps one
day think of comparing Louis XIV and Gam
BETA Which of the two did most for France is
q question soon answered. Louis XIV and his
generals made French territory what it is, and
in a long reign made France the most
glorious famous and magnificent monarchy
which has existed in modern times.
Gambetta was a great orator and
an ardent Republican, but he was cut off pre-
maturely before he had had an opportunity of
showing himself to be statesman. Well, at the
present moments it is proposed to erect monu-
ment to the memory of Gambetta, more
grandiose, more imposing, and more vast than
any monument which has ever been erected to
the memory of Louis XIV. The model of the
monument by MN. Aube and Boileau is now on
exhibition with other models at the Ecole DIES
Beaux Arts, and the government has authorized
the erection of the monument in the Cour du
Carrousel, in the very heart of the Louvre, that
magnificent vestige of the old monarchy.
Without wishing to depreeate the glory of
Gambetta we may safely say that the monu-
ment is altogether out of proportion to his mer
its. Imagine a lofty pyramid rising from a
monumental basement. On one facade of the
pyramid is seen Gambetta; behind him an allie
gorical figure of war holds a flag and around
rim are warriors brandishing their swords.
This central group full of movement is visibly
inspired by Rude's group of the Marseillaise on
the Arc de Triomphe. On two sides of the
basement are colossal groups representing
Truth and Strength, and on the summit Of the
pyramid is an allegorical figure of the Revolu
ton seated on lion. The categorical groups
are 20 be in bronze and the rest of the monu-
1neut in marble. OF course, it will be magnif-
cent and striking, but it is too complicated, too
scattered, to be even fine work of sculpture it
Jacks simplicity, and above all it lacks unity.
Perhaps simple statue of Gambetta would
have suficed, both for the orators own glory
and for the satisfaction of posterity. The fact
been raised to the memory Of any man, and GER
tainly when we examine the life of Gambetta,
we cannot help being struck by the disproportion
of the man and of his eulptural apotheosis,
which will be about eighty feet high

There is considerable discussion among the mem
bers of the police force account of the
efforts of a favored few to get all the credit for
work done and to prevent others from having chance
to do anything in important matters. 1t is openly
charged that there is clique of a half dozen men,
two of whom outrank the patrolmen, who attempt to
attend to everything that up and will not let
older and more experienced mon have anything to do
with cases which are likely be given publicity
in the newspapers. As result of this criminals
sometimes arrested lefore clear has been made
against them and taey acquitted in consequence
for lack of testimony to convict. There was such a
case in the Criminal ourt last week.

The Death of Mrs. Lutes.

The is investigating the death of Mrs.
Emma Lutes, wife of John NJ. Lutes, No. 60 South
California street. which occurred very suddenly on
Friday night. She had been suffering from con-
geston of the lungs and had been prescribed morphine
and given hyperdermc injection of that drug by Dr.
Pettijohn She died shortly afterwards, and the
family, who think the morphine poisoning,
asked for an inquest and post-mortem. Dr. Petit
john thinks that he- death the result of conges
ton and that the medicine which prescribed IN
the regular way had nothing do with it. The post
norton was held last night by Drs. Featherstono
carp and Stratford and established the fact that Il
death was from natural causes purely.
