The Imposing Mcclellan Statue Soon to BE
Unveiled In Philadelphia
After repeated and disappointing delays
the imposing equestrian statue of General
George b. Mcclellan, the hero OF Ante
tam,'' will be unveiled in Philadelphia
Oct. "a. The pedestal, which was erected
some time ago at large expense by the
state of Pennsylvania, stands at the north
west corner of the city hall plaza, and the
statue, which was cast In a dozen pieces,
weighing altogether about four tons, Is al
ready in place. The statue IS the design
of Henry J. Ellicott OF Washington and
represents Little Mac as he appeared
at Antietam checking the advance of Lee.
Horse and rider are about y times life
size and are of United States statuary
bronze. The horse, which is modelled after
the charger General Mcclellan rode at
Antietam, is represented as pausing upon
the crest of hill with head and ears erect
and mouth and nostrils dilated, as II
sceuting the smoke Of battle. On his back
sits the stern, grim, thoughtful soldier,
with his army cap over his eyes and his
cool, calm pose in striking contrast with
the nervous, excited pose of the noble ami
NAL beneath him
The pedestal, which is of granite, is said
to be one OF the most ornate and beautiful
pedestals in the country. Its broad base

Psychology.

The new science of psychology will
determine the mental laws e~xactly-ths
laws of the individual and of society;
the laws of aesthetics. of education, of
ethics and of every human faculty.
1t will compel men to live by these
laws, because it will make them plain
to all men-as plain as the law of grav-
ity. The world will then 90 forward
because il will see how. We shall then
have a higher manhood, because its
type will be clear to us. We shall
have a new art and a new literature. be-
cause we shall know the secrets of beau
ty. Its standards shall be broader in
proportion a. they shall be truer. We
may then efficiently love our unfortu-
pate brother by knowing how 10 make
him lovable. and how TO make life low
able TO him. Psychology will secure
to man wealth and art, wisdom and
happiness, by making man capable Of
them. Psychology will make education

giving education a scope heretofore I'M
conceived of.-McClure's Magazine.

Mr.. Justin Mccarthy, ~discoursing on
the house of commons, related a capital
story of Disraeli. Ii was during the
Russo-Turkish war, and while relations
we're very strained between England
and the car a member was indiscreet
enough TO put a question TO Disraell,
who was then prime minister, as To the
policy of the government in the event of
the emperor OF Russia doing a certain
act.
Members snuddered as Di-raeli, with
amost funereal face, slowly advanced to
the table. The question, he declared,
In a slow, measured voice, was one Of
such perilous moment that the honor
able member acted most unwisely in
putting 1t on the paper, yet it was a
question Of such Importance that the
only course nov open TO the government
was to accept the inevitable and bold
" answer. If" declared Disraeli,
''the emperor takes this step, all | can
say is-and | am speaking after a pro-
longed consultation with my colleagues
the government will then give the
policy they are to pursue their very best
consideration. Westminster Gazette.
