A correspondent of The Evening Star
writes as follows:
To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
L assume that the writer of the notice of
the equestrian statue of General Washing
ton, III the column of Art and Artists in
last Saturdays paper was unaware of the
fact that the equestrian part of General
Washington's statue referred to was de-
signed and modelled by Mr.. Edward c. Pot
ter of Enfield, Mass, else the writer would
have mentioned the fact without detracting
from the compliments so justly due to Mr.
Daniel c. French, the designer of the figure
of Washington in said statue
f The writer of this feels assured from his
knowledge of the friendly attachment exist
ing between Messrs. French and Potter
that the first named gentleman will be as
pleased to have this matter set right as will
Mr. Potter when he comes to know of The
inadyertent omission of his name in the
article to which this communication refers
The General Grant equestrian statue that
will be unveiled in Philadelphia on the 9th
instant Is also the joint work of Messrs
Potter and French, as will also be the
equestrian statue of General Hooker now
In process of construction, which was or
dered by the state of Massachusetts to be
SCI up in Boston when completed.
Messrs French ard Potters other works
III SoiiuUoidtlOu nave Deen The celebrated
"Quadriga" on the water gate and the
horses and bulls facing the water basin at
the Columbian exposition at Chicago, the
animal work having been modelled by Mr.
Potter and the human figures by Mr.
French.
In addition to Mr. Potters equestrian
work in conjunction with Mr.. French he is
engaged individually at the present time
upon an equestrian statue of General Slo-
cum, to be set up on the battlefield of Get
tysburg, Mr.. Potter having received this
order from the state of New York against
seventeen competitors.
Among other important individual works
of Mr.. Potter are the following: The statue
of Robert Fulton" one of the sixteen fig
ures in the rotunda of the Congressional
Library in this city; THE Sleeping Faun,"
in the Chicago Art Gallery, the first work
ever purchased by that gallery of an Amer
lean artist; heroic figure of 'Zoroaster,"
just completed for the new law court build
ing in New York city, and the equestrian
outriders exhibited in conjunction with the
Quadriga figures on the water gate at the
Columbian, exposition, heretofore refer
red to.

Miss M V. Wolff, the daughter of Simon
Wolff, has on view at VeerhoTs a couple
of flower studies, which are executed with
great artistic feeling and refinement of
color. Much of the charm in these works
lies in the loose free handling, but this is
perhaps carried to excess, and the vague
nepuiouS spots of color in a study sup
posedly of carnations leave one in some
doubt as to whether the blossoms are really
carnations or something else The treat
