Scnlptors' Marble.

''Thc marble used by sculptors for the
better class of work is what is called Car
rara, and costs in New York $l4 per
square foot. But this is so beautifully
fine in its fibre that it will not stand en-
posture i'll the open air, especially if near
the sea. In Il private residence or hall it
is safe, and preserves its contour MS well
as the harder and coarscr grained stone.
which is quarricd from the same place.
but which has Il BLUSH tint and is veincd.
and which costs only IS per square foot.
The difference in the working of the two is
great, the cheaper article is more brittle
and altogether unsutcd to the minute and
delicate traccry which is so frequently
called for in drapcd figures But for
pcdcstals or greatly enlarged figures it is
perhaps more appropriate than the other.

and after the work was finished and fully

Coming across flaw in the stone whicl,
had hitherto remained hidden, the fatcd
finger fell at his feet, and two years labor
was lost. Such accidents are liable to
occur with any sculptor who gets hold OF

These terms have often been used bv
writers on breeding domestic animals. MS
synonymous. but they are really OF quite
a diiTcrcn; Specification. In-brccding
means the mating of animals which are
more OF less closely related; while inter
breeding is the mating of cross-brcd ami
mails, that have no relationship with each
other. For example, suppose Shors-
horn and Hereford are bred together, the
offspring possess half the blood OF each.
Next, suppose the same OF Il Sussex and
Devon, then the offspring of these two
crosses together. This would be inter.
breeding, their parents having no con
sanSuinity of blood between them. It is
Il safe course to pcrsuc, and for the attain
mcnt of special ends may at times prove
quite IN advantage to the catilc-brcc,iei'.
ln-brccding, or breeding inland in, us it
Is more generally termed, is dangerous
unless To person of great experience.
and who isa perfect Judge of the pcrfcc-
lions and impcrfcctions of animals: thea

ly followed by the unskiilful with loss
OF size, thrift and constitution; and fin
ally, by barrcnncss. Fatal diseases are
also to be dreaded, for suppose the par
cnt is touched with disease: in consc-
quencc then of its consanguinity with the
other, this will be likely to be intensified
in the offspring; and if both parents have
the same disease, it will probably be
