The Great Dome of the Capitol.

Some time ago 1t was announced that
work upon the great historical frieZe
which runs around the wall of the capt.
tai dome was suspended for want of
suitable subjects with which to fill
about seventy-fve feet of space which
must be occupied before the frieze Is
complete. The fact is only one subject
was wanted, and that has been supplied,
the selection being the ceremony of driv-
ing the last spike in the Pacific railroad,
which first bound the Atlantic and Pa
cific seaboards together. At this cere-
mOny many notable persons were pres
ent, who are put in the foreground of
the cartoon. The last subject on which
the artist was engaged, and which Is
not yet finished, is the death of Tecum-
seh." Following this the capitulation
at the City Of Mexico will be illustrated,
Gen. Scott being represented as receiv-
ing the keys Of the city. After this will
come an illustration OF the discovery of
gold in California, and the driving of
the last spike will complete the work
Cartoons for all these subjects, except
the last were drawn by the late Mr.
Brumldi, who painted the allegOrical
fresco on the ceiling of the dome. Since
Mr.. Brumidrs death Mr.. Costigini has
taken up the work, and the drawing oil
he final cartoon Is by him.

POLITICAL NOTES.

Maud s. will make another effort to
lower her record. Thomas Hendricks is
trying to raise his.
The Vermont legislature reelected
Justin s. MOrill United States Senator
for term of six years.
The little speeches made by Blaine in
Ohio were more effectual than the $780,
600 Democratic money.
The great attempt to gull the Ameri-
can people into the belief that the Dem
ocratic tiger has had its claws pared
down is still going on.
New York Commercial Advertiser: No
Democrat as yet has been able to show
that any man lost dollar by Mr..
Blaine's financial operations.
Burlington Hawkeye:
Belva on tricycle.
Blaine on boom immense,
G. Cleveland squirming on rail,
And Eutler on the fence.
Grover Cleveland has pardoned more
than fifty criminals out of prison with
in the past two months. His motto Is:
"Turn the rascals out before election
day."
Milwaukee Sentinel (Rep): It has
been said by the Democrats that Mr..
Blaine injured the Republican cause in
Ohio by his visit there. How great do
they imagine the majority would have
been If he had remained away? Forty
thousand?
