Unfinished Statues.

1t is curious to notice the number OF
statues that are in the sculptors' ate
liers" waiting to be finished, erected
or inaugurated. To give few of them,
let me first mention those of Victor
Hugo and Balzac. The statue Of the
great poet by Barrias will probably not
be raised before the next century; it
Will not be erected even for the great
exhibition. 1t will represent the bard
seated on a rock on the coast of Guern-
sey, surrounded by allegorical figures
Symbolizing poetry and the drama. The
statue Of Balzac, by Rodin, which has
been the cause of much discussion. is
on the point of being terminated. Bal
zac stands erect, with his arms folded
meditating on life which he depicted so
truly. Next comes the statue of Saint
Beuve for which, sad to say, it was diff
ficult to raise funds. He is represented
standing in his dressing gown, with a
frilled shirt and necktie thrown care
lessly around his neck. Jeanne Arc
by Paul Dubois. who has persOnified
her in the act Of rushing. sword in
hand against the enemy has not yet
found a place for herself. The statue
of Gounod, by Mercie Is approaching
completion. The bust of the painter
Corot is hidden somewhere. Pasteur
Will have his statue in Paris as we'll as
in his native country but it will be
some time before they see the light.
Finally, the monument to Victor Du-
ruy, the historian, is still in the hands
of the sculptor.-London Globe.

Lee Wore No Sword.

TT is a. remarkable fact" said a dis
tinguished ex-ConfedeTate. that Cen
eral Lee never wore a sword during
the war, or any weapon, and he never
buckled on a. sword until the day of his
surrender, and then as an act of court
esy to General Grant, and as proper
for the occasion, when terms Of sur
render were being agreed upon
General Lee did not expect to sur
render his sword to General Grant be-
cause, by the terms of surrender, all
officers were to retain their side arms; /;
but he did expect, as / have heard him
state, that Grant would go through the
form of touching the hilt of his sword,
according to the custom of war But
Grant, magnanimous of soldiers, did
not even do that"
General Lee had a sword, which is
preserved, but the fact that he did not
wear it, as thus stated in the Star"
Is rather a shock to those of US who
have enjoyed literally, as we'll as fig
uratively, Father Ryan's poem Of stir
ring sentiment, beginning:
Forth from it's scabbard, pure and bright,
Flashed the sword of Lee!
