MANIA OF A SICILIAN PRINCE.
He Filled His House and Grounds
with Grotcsque Statuary.
London Standard.


The Scilian Prince of valguanera at the be-

rare description. He succeeded one of the
largest fortunes in Europe, his habits We're stu

fancy for grotesque statues with which he
adorned the stately mansion of his forefathers.
Many descriptions OF the place are extant, for it
was renowned through Europe in its day Bry-
done visited it. and he has lett pleasant
picture. Approaching by "a noble avenue, one
found the palace encircled by an army" of
monsters The absurdity of the wretched i'm

done. Some were compound of five or six
animals which have resemblance in nature
In instance the head of a lion was set upon

or six heads and a grove OF horns. There is no

fishing on the same skull
OF such horrors there were six hundred in the
avenue and the courtyard alone when Brydone
saw the collection. and the Prince maintained a
