UTiH'S SCULPTOR.

| WE have been pleased 10 notice the
progress made by Mr.. {. +. Dallin
Of Springville, Utah County. ever
since he manifested a talent for
sculpture which marked him as pos
sessing uncommon ability. When
he went 10 Boston we kept our
readers posted as - his course and
chrOnicled his series Of successful
eiTort-. II now appears that he has
gained the highest honors in Paris,
the worlds centre Of art. The fol-
lowing is from the New York SdtiI-
day Glo5e:
Among the notable works exhibited
by American artists at the Paris salon
last year was a full Iife-size figure
called The Sioux Chief, f" executed by
Mr.. &. Z. Dallin, now Of Boston, but
formerly % the west, who has for
some time been Studying art in Paris.
Il vas, however, Mr.. nallin's iirst
contribution 10 the salon. Tie study
i a horse and an Indian seated upon
IT, As already stated, il j. full
life-size. The study was made
by Mr. Dall.n in PARIS with
one Of Buffalo BHl's Wild West
Indian scouts A. his model, and the
same Is true Of the pony represented
in the sculpture. Mr.. Dallin has
been awarded by the salon the high
e.. hoaor ever conferred on an
American sculptor. In his case Il was
an unusual honor. because il WAS his
first exhibition. The arts; will soon
return 10 tins country, and there j.
some talk among his friends that this
notable study ought to BE- east in
bronze and purchased by the govern
neni for the city Of Washington.
The American Indian belongs 10 a
ace which lends itself with great
facility to the very highest develop

state Of nature. these people Of the
mountains, and the woods. and the

The Cumberland Valley Railroad.

The articles which have appeared in the
SPECTATOR in reference to the Cumberland
Valley Railroad in the mission it could fill
as great North and South line of railroad,
have enlisted the interest of the people, as
the proceedings at Middlebrook on the 18th
instant testify. The committee Of CORES
pondence to forward the objects in view is
already at work, as will appear By the ap-
pended proceedings to the meeting which
created the same.
The interest in this movement is extend
ing along the proposed line and may create
an enthusiasm which will 60 far towards .
favorable consideration of the suggestion
for extension by the Railroad Company
This movement of enquiry Mr.. McCorkle
and his committee are determined to press
to a conclusion, and such will be the inter-
est manifested by the 17sh Of September
when all the committees shall meet in this
city to arrange for an interview with the
President of the Railroad Company, that
the topic will be one of decidedly leading
character. We feel warranted in saying
this much, because the spirit Of the Middle
brook meeting jussiies it. The same con-
sideration, and even more in some instan-
ces, will move the people all along the
proposed line.

How Much Better 1t Might Be.

General Brinkerhoff, of Ohio, who fought
on the federal side all threngh the war and
is republican to the backbone, recently
wrote letter in which occurred this pas
sage:
1--WE of the north ought to be far enough
away from the passions of the great strug-
gle to BIZ able to appreciate the splendid
virtues of the southern people, and to be
fairly charitable to their failings, which, to
say the least, are not more numerous than
our own. Nowhere else in history has a
master class dealt so generously with its
liberated slaves. Take for comparison
Brazil, or even Russia, where the serfs were
white instead of black, and it must be a
cold heart that does not glow with admira-
ton at the superiority of our southern
brethren
In short, am glad to believe that the
southern white people are as brave, as pa
triotic, as generous. and as Christian, az any
people upon the earth. They are worthy
of our confidence, and in the solution of the
negro problem. which hangs like pail over
the nation, we ought to meet them as breth-
rem. If that question is to be settled salts
ctorly, they must settle it in the main;
for all we can do, after we have done our
best, is simply to assist. We can cooperate,
and we ought to do so to the extent of our
ability, but beyond that we ought not to go,
and cannot go to any advantage"
Now, if the people of the North would be
wise and considerable enough to elect such
men as Gen. Brinkerhoff to represent them
in Congress instead of malignant section
alists and South haters, how much better it
would be for the happiness and prosperity
of both sections, for then there would be
concord and fraternal feelings-the union
would be cemsnted By affection, and "peace
and plenty would shed their blessings DER
o smiling land"

LOST HIS LIFE IN WELL.-Uad date
of July 18th, Bridgewater correspondent
of the Rockingham Register says
yesterday afternoon, about 10 O'Clock, a
young man named VIM. Bricker, sen of
Mr.. John W. Bricker of near O;tobine, des-
cended into we'll of Mr.. Sam'l E. Longs,
near this place, and was overcome by choke
damp. He called to those above to draw
him up, but when abou5 halfway out he
fell back to the bottom, and before rescued
he was SO far exhausted that he only lived
a few minutes after reaching terra .1frnta.
The heroic conduct of young man by the
name of Cake is to be highly commended
in riskiug his own life in the attempt to
save his ftiend. Young Bricker was an in
dustrous and worthy you 1g man, and his
sudden taking off is great shock 10 his
family and friends"

CONGRESS-.

In the United States Senate Tuesday,
July 18th, Mr.. Sherman introduced a sub
stitute for his bill to reduce the amount of
bonds to be required of national banks.-
The Senate spent the session on the irri.
cation clause of the civil sundry appropri-
alton bill.
In the House the bill appropriating $685..
lS9 for the employment of 636 additional
clerks in the pension Office led to long de-
bate, in which Mr.. Raum's management of
that office was severely criticised by several
members on the democratic side, but the
bill passed.
In the United States Senate, Wednesday.
Mr. Sawyer introduced bill to establish a
postal telegraph system. The session was
spent on the civil sundry bill, only three
pages of which we're disposed of during the
day.
The House was engaged on the land
grant forfeiture bill, but she point of no
quorum was raised and no progress was
made.
The United States Senate Thursday had
under consideration the civil sundry ap
preparation bill, but failed to make much
progress.
The House passed the land grant for
fixture bill.
The United States Senate Friday was
again occupied on the civil sundry apprc-
priation bill and disposed of the irrigation

lied as "a financial monster, every claw
and tooth of which had been carefully in.
spected in the lobbies and found to be
sound and reliable"
In the House the death of Representa-
tive Walker, of Missouri, was announced,
and adjournment followed.

Of the other parts partially, constructed OF
steel. In addition to the basement, it oc-
cupies corner and fronts on one street $50
feet and on the other 1876 feet, and is 10
stories high above the basement. 1t IS en-
tirely appropriated to the printing business
and is the largest ever erected for that
single purpose. This is what has been done
in the erection of one building in which
steel is the chief material two years before
that city will have the Worlds Exposition,
and there is no telling what will be her de-
mand for steel material as the eventful time
draws near. This is a depression from the
subject in hand, but we are reluctant to-
leave it until some facts are stated re-
specting its construction. 1t will contain
l5 miles of steel railway 65 pounds to the
rail. The beams are IL, Is and 20 inches.
The Is inch beams, if laid at length, would
exterd 10 miles. There are 10 miles of
steam pipe, and 1000 rivets and bolts
The floors are equal to acres of surface
If all the ire-proof materials used in the
building were made into pyramid 40 feet
square at the base and tapering to the apex,
the pyramid would stand as high as the
Eiffel tower-1, 600 feet. The glass in the
building would be sufficient for 100 dwell
ings of 10 rooms each. The estimated
weight of the steel used in the building is
8, 700 tons.
Chicago is now contemplating the con-
struction of steel bridge over the Chicago
river at its mouth, thus uniting at that
point both sides of the city, to cost So, 0OO,-
600. If erected, it is to be memorial
structure of the Columbian Exposition, and
to indicate the gateway to the Mississippi.
For much of the information woven into
this article we are indebted to the Prairie
Farmer, which, after August, will occupy
place in the great building which has
been partly described.
When we were switched off from the
main purpose by the attraction of Chicago's
first great steel building, we were on the
point of endeayoring to excite the interest
of our people in charge Of our resources and
industries and ths splendid ldid opportunities
we present to the world for investment and
development, and to urge them to be up
and doing for grand demonstration of
them at Chicago in 1892. The occasion
should bring together in counsel and asso-
ciated effort the managers of all our in.
dustries for the purpose named, and, if
that is done, there can exist no apprchen.
sion of unsatisfactory results.
