New YORK, October 26th.-The Academy
Of Music was gayly decorated tonight in
honor of the French delegates to the un-
yelling of the Statue of Liberty, who were
rendered a reception by the Circle Fran
caise de L'Harmonie." A very dlstin-
guished audience was present, including a
very large delegation from the French col
ony. Lafou, President of the Circle. pre-
sided, and an address of welcome was made
in French by Frederick r. Conderl Sem
ator Evarts then spoke on behalf of the
American committee, extending hearty
welcome to the city and to the nation,
to all public manifestations, and to the
homes of our people. NJ. Spuller, member
of the French Parliament, then spoke
He said it would be impossible to speak
to the French people with more feeling
than has been done this evening For a
whole century the two nations have gone
hand in hand; and, although America has
advanced farther in liberty, France is not
enyious of her happiness. You have put
in practice what our philosophers have de-
scribed. You have aided us by your ex-
ample, and we are amply repaid for any
services we may have rendered in your
revolution. NJ. De Lesseps rose and en-
braced NJ. Spuller on the conclusion of his
speech, and kissed him on both cheeks.
He said he was profoundly touched with
the sentiment of this great nation, and he
would say, "Vive La AmeriGue Et La
Liberte!" NJ Bartholdi was also called
for, and expressed his thanks for the recep-

New YORK, October 26th-Referring to
the manner in which the great statue has
been erected, Bartholdi said to a reporter :
am more than gratified with the pedes-
tai and setting. We had good view COM
ing up on tie Bretagne, and l am still
enjoying that moment of triumph One
thing ought to be done, and one only, as
far as can see, to improve the effect. The
walls of Fort Wood are a trifie too high
and to- widespreading for the mass of the
statue and pedestal. They need to be
shaved down by cutting off little at the
top and then terracing. We were afraid at
first the Brooklyn bridge might hurt u.s.
The bridge and statue are both colossal
Set near together they might dwarf each
other. They are just far enough apart to
fl in well with the great scope of sea and
sky Nothing on the whole could have
been a greater success. The site and work
are both beyond praise"

President Cleveland Is more sparing
than any Of his predecessors of the ap-
preparation made by congress for the
contingent expenses OF the White House.
The contingent fund covers stationery,
kilograms, books for library, purchase Of
new carpets and furniture, cost of keep
ing carriage and horses, etc. The ap-
preparation for Grants last presidential
year was only $4,000. and Grant spent
every cent. Hayes. at the end of his
first year in the White House, had an
unexpended balance of 10 cents out OF .
contingent fund of $1,000. For his last
year he had q contingent fund Of $10,-
900. out of which he saved S39. Arthur
managed to save only $3.50 out Of $l0,-
900 contingent fund of his first year. and
that was the largest balance he had on
hand at the end of any year while he
was the occupant of the White House.
Mr.. Cleveland saved $3,3+s.Sl during
his first year out of a contingent fund
