T A. S. writes to the Boston sunday
Journal an interesting description OF
some of the points of interest III Klch-
mond. Among other things, +. NJ. =
If YOU. visitor enjoy good art, ana
o,o sunreciate a noble artist, who COM
hines with his high calling Jolly good
fellowship. you will find all YOU wish AT
Edward Y. Valentines i'm east Lelsh
street. and i'm Edward himself you can
meet a man OF high attainment ana
sterling character. Should Mr.. Valentine
chow Won his wonderful work. chiselled
from purest Carrara. of "Andromache
ana Astyanax." you will have the plea
sure of gazing upon a sculptured story
that seemed and, after much thought
sin seems. the finest work of its class
in America. and it would give modern
Italy a severe stint to surpass it, Five
lines from the Had give the text OF the
marble story:
But now returning home, thy works at
tend
The loom and distan, and direct thy
maids
in household duties; while the war shall
be
OF men the care; of all, indeed, but
most
The care of me. Of all i'm Hon born"
Let me quote a few words from a con-
else description of the work written re-
Gently:
"The group is pyramidal in shape and
five feet high. Andromache Is seated
with head slightly bowed, turned 10 IN

fllet. Her right arm hangs listlessly AT

which stands upon low pedestal, ana Is

clasps AstvanaX, who is seated upon =
stool. which is covered with lion :
skin-the head supporting one OF the Zee,
Of the child. Andromache's lelt iool
rests upon "A miniature toOt-st'ol' ana
the right upon the pedestal proper Of inc

the d,staff and thread. symbols of human

\ little long, but worth studying.
II is hard TO transfer feelings. The
work Of Mr.. Valentine, however has
been executed in such spirit OF en-
thusiastic sympathy that he has sue
ceedcd in conveying from cold an'
senseless stone feeling Of pathos too
deep almost for words. The best sat
isfaction TO be derived from his marvel
