sTATURs AND MONUMENTS.

The statue OF Washington by Hou-
don, the great French sculptor, was
erected in the :" rotunda" OF the Capt.
tol in 1895, and the bust of Lafayette
was received about the same time. The
cornerstone of the Washington monu-
ment was laid February %, 1850, and
the equestrian statue by Crawford was
unveiled February 90, 1858. 1t was
only in 1867 that the last Of the statues
on the monument were erected, Craw-
ford having in the mean time died, and
the finishing work been transferred to
Rogers.
In 1860 was erected the marble
statue of Clay by Hart--a present to
the State by Clay's admiring country
women. This statue until few years
ago stood under q shelter near the bell
house, but for better security was re-
moved to the Capitol rotunda. The
shelter remains to this day, and looks
like band-siand. The bronze statue
of Stonewall Jackson, by Foley, was
in 1875 presented TO Virginia by an as
sociation Of English gentlemen.
THE HUNDRED WARS.
When the cornerstone Of the Capitol
was laid, less than four years had passed
since the surrender at Yorktown. Veto
rams Of the Revolution were numerous.
The population Of the United States
was about three and q half millions,
and Virginia had nearly twice ss many
inhabitants as any other State. Her
boundaries extended far into the great
West. The Federal Constitution had
not been adopted; steamboats, and rail-
roads were unknown, and the telegraph
not dreamed Of. Washington had not
entered on his first term IS President
Of the United States. Patrick Henry
was Governor Of Virginia for the second
time. George III. was still on the
throne Of England, and the great Napo-
leon was promising youth Of sixteen.
Many and many have been the assem-
blages within the Capitol walls. The

Sample pumpkins weighed 80, rs and GA
pounds. The enthusiastic gardener says
they would have grown twenty-five per
cent. larger had he not plucked them when
green to prevent the possibility of Jack
Frost taking the flavor out of the future
pies that these monstrous growths promised
n such abundance. From the foregoing ex-
bhibit it is plain that Oregon will not be able
to put up corner on pumpkin pies this
year, although the exhibits in the squash

"a golden opportunity for one.
From the Stevens County NV. IT, Miner
it,is learned that rich strike was made
lastsweekin the Rustler claim, Colviile dis
trict. This mine was recently bonded fol
the small sum of $500, on contract to sink
fifty feet on the claim. Good indications
were in sight for several days, but on IL !.
18th blast revealed the black metal at {
depth of only thirteen feet. The widest ex
citement spread through all the camps OF
the hillside. This strike, it is believed, es
tablishes the permanency of the Old Dom
inlon, besides making a mine out of the
Rustler, as the shaft was being sunk in tn,
