Messrs. L. a. Moore & Co., owners Of
extensive granite quarries in New Eng
land, but having headquarters in this
city for the manufacture and sale Of
monuments and other artistic memorials
for the graves Of The departed, yesterday
contracted to erect in Greenwood q beau.
tiful and imposing monument Of ex.
autsite design, tho drawings for which,
| from the delft hand Of Mr.. L: A. Moore,
designer and draughtsman for the firm Of
which be is the head, may be seen at the
FIRMS office, at 1878 Market street
| (Crangle's block. Mr.. S. @. Hamilton,
the resident member Of the firm, will be
happy to show this design, or any OF the
other handsome drawings to visitors at
any time.
The monument alluded to was ordered
by Mr.. Peter Cassell, and is TO be placed
upon his family lot at Greenwood Gene
terry. The shalt will stand thirty feet in
height, and be surnounted by an emblem
attic figure Of heroic size, representing
Hope pointing heavenward. The whole
was designed by Mr.. Moore, but while the
shat, pedestal and plinth will be made by
the firm from Silver Bey granite from
| their own quarries, the statue will be i'm
ported from Italy, q master sculptor there
being engaged to do this work and much
other similar work Tor the firm.
The selection and design fthe monu-
ment reflect credit alike upon the skill
and ta'ent Of Mr.. Moore and the capable
Workmanship Of his employees, and upon
tho discriminating taste Of Mr.. Cassell.
There are but three monuments now in
Greenwood which can compare in execu-
ton with this monument when erected,
and it may be doubted II there Is another
| as pleasing in design. II will DO truly "a
thing Of beauty" aud "a 10y forever"
not only to Nj. Cassell and his family,
but to all visitors and frequenters OF this
lovely city Of the dead.
The choice Of q granite Is important at
all times in the planning of q work such
as this. Especially Is this SO in the sui.
phurous air breathed out by .Wheeling's
victories. Here it becomes prime neces.
sity that the granite, to be OF permanent

work Of art. II will be we'll worth the

its head out of water and its mouth wide
open. The bow of the boat was at once
turned toward the shark. and the heads
nan drove a lance twelve feet down its
throat Still the monster rushed
on and seized the bow. The other
boat then came up. and by the
vigorous use of lanccs obliged the shark

several of its teeth in the wood. The
fight lasted two hours, and occasioned
