THE LUTHER MONUMENT AT WORMS.
The Berlin Correspondent of the London
Times writes as follows of this great nation
al and religious monument.
The city of Worms in which Luther plead
ing before his sovereign and the assembled
estates of the Holy Roman Empire, vindi
cating the Gospel against sacerdotal en
croachment 347 years ago, has just witnes
sed the inauguration of a monument to his
honor. From other statues previously
erected to him the new one is distinguished
in more than one respect. It is a tribute
paid by all Protestant Germany, subscrip
tions having come in from every county in
which the reformed faith has gained a foot
ing. It is a memorial dedicated, not to a
man, but to a period, perpetuating alike the
effigy of Luther and his associates in the
sacred exploit ; and. 'it has been unveiled
at a time when there are symptoms of an
other religious movement, which, whatever
its immediate result, will ultimately exer
cise considerable influence on the destinies
of Luther's country and countrymen.
In size and 'rich variety of design the
monument has no equal. In this respect
it is an improvement even upon Rauch's
Frederick the Great, with its host of Gene
rals ranged round the base. It is not a
a statue, but a combination oteleven statues
grouped around and surdbunted by the
gigantic likeness of the Thuringian Miner's
Son. Ascending a few steps you tread on
a granite base forty feet square, enclosed.on
the three other sideti by a ba4lernefited
ustrade. In its centre LiithOr'.itillnffs
eminent. Seated on the four pillars pro
jecting from the dorribrile of Ilutlie - r's pedes
tal you see dhistbring abbut We master
mind his four precursors, who attempted
what he accomplished. To this noble
array the English, French l Italian and
Slave nations have each furnished a Mem.-
ber—JohnWickliffe, PetrusWaldus,Hieroni
ino Savonarola and .Tan Huss. Then turn
ing to the circumference, you notice seven
more statusw dint r,,ibut_ d a around: OceuYY
ing the four corite;ric tlia Wu — stride, and
separated from the centre group by the
inner space, are the venerable figures of
two regal and two clerical allies of the Re
formatory Hero. I- rederick the wise, Elec
tor of Saxony, and Philip the Generous,
Landgrave of Hesse, impersonating power
and prudence, watch the front; Philip lifelan
thon and John Reuohlin, with their solid
erudition, are at their rear. To these four,
or adding those in the centre , group, -nine
great men—images and real beings—are,
with questionable taste, united the symboli
cal statues of three cities, celebrated in the
history of the time. Augsburg, Magdeburg
and Spires, three majestic women—take up
the centre "of each side of the balustrade.
Seated, and looking up to Luther, they
pleasingly relieve the four corner statues,
which are standing; and have their faces
turned in the same directions the central
figure. To. do justice to the many places
which have likewise deserved well, of the
cause of religious liberty, the battlements
of the enclosure are on the, inner side de
corated with escutcheons of twenty-four
other German cities. These are Brunswick,
Bremen, Eisenach, Eisleben, Emden, Erfurt,
Frankfort, Halle, Hamburg, Heilbrunn,
Jena, Konigsberg, Leipsio, Lindau, Lubeck,
Marburg, Netahngen, ,Nordlingen„ Alga, ,
Schmalkalden, Strasburg, Wittenberg, and
Worms. Thus stands the wonderful struc
ture before us, a petrified piece of history,
silent, yet eloquent to any one who knoWs
what has once, agitated inivnkind, :and h.
presentin'ent akitaite - thane
again.
Let us look more closely, at the principal
group. On a sienite pedeital of subdued
color, surmounted with two bronze squares,
stands Luther. It is the stout, 'sturdy
shape familiar to every eye. It is.the dear
old well-known form, with its honest fea
tures, and calm, imperturbable eye, as paint
ed by Cranach. With face turned upwards,
he rests his clinched fist on the closed Bible,
as if uttering the famous verse of his beau
tiful chorale—Das Wort sie sollenlasSen stehn.
From an artistic point of view it might,
perhaps, have been better to give his head
a more inclined position. In' a statue of
ten and a half feet in height, on a pedestal
of sixteen feet, a face lifted up , to 'heaven:
cannot be well seen from below. A better
view, however, is. obtained from the side.
than from the front. .
Before passing on to the other worthies
we will cast a glance on the pedestal. In
suggessive detail it is in keeping with the
general desigti. A. square of cast bronze
placed on the stone pillar supports a Etimilnr,
slab of less dimensions, decorated .with' in
scriptions and reliefs. On its front, a fitting
motto of the monument, appear the closing
words of Luther's celebrated speech in the
Worms Diet: "Here I stand. I cannot
speak nor act otherwise. So helyrnieLGod.
Amen." Under the legend are the medal
lions of John the Constant and his son John
Frederick of /Saxony, who so steadfastly
stood by Luther in his troubles: On the
opposite side . engraved a passage from?
another speedh of the fiery Reformer :
" The Ghspel Which the Lord put into the
mouth.of the ApostleaoisdiLis zword. With
it he strikes the world as with, a thunder
bolt" Tinderdenth kite the portraits of Ul
rich von 'Hutton Franz von Sickingen
the two noble knight? Who, brOught the chi
valrous spirit of their."ol6Ss to the defence
of Truth and its 10MB warlike' chainpions.
To the right of Luther ive.relid` the follow
ing sentence from his born:modem

the 4pitit of Christ' that : *a date MO, to

THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN,
unshaken faith, are inserted on the same
side. Finally on the left, we read :—" Those
that rightly understand Christ will not be
moved by what man may enjoin. They are
free, not in the flesh, but in the spirit."
John Calvin and Ulrich Zwingli, the found
ers of the Reformed Church in Switzerland,
are aptly placed under this motto, their de
viations from Luther proceeding rom their
partiality to the spirit rather than to the
letter of the Bible.
The lower slab contains scenes from
Luther's life,
in alto relieve. Here we have
him making his speech in the Worms Par
liament, nailing his theses to the door of Wit
tenberg Cathedral, marry ing,.hia Catharine,
and translating the Bible in the sequestered .
castle at Wartburg. For character and
finish these smaller castings are greatly
praised.
The four figures sitting at the feet of their
more successful brother in arms next claim
our attention., getrua Waldtis, of ;whom
no portrait has been preserved, is represent
ed as a poor wanderer, with torn cloak and
staff, and preaching, with the Bible before
him, as his guileless heart dictates. Wick
liffe, whose features are likeivise unknown,
to poste,rityi ist arrayed in.:la doctor's garb—

as a than `4iriappefl in 'conteinplation. Huss
is the martyr, preparing for death. Weigh
ed down with bodily weakness, and prolong
ed imprisonment, he sits a harrowing pic
ture of misery. But his sharp and emaciat
ed features are lit up by an inspired look
directed towards the, crucifix alaspSd in his
hands. The vehement apostle is displayed
in the person of Savon'aroia. He lifts his
right hand to heaven and beats his heart
with his left, looking down on the spectator
from his cowl with eyes flashing fire. To'

The three, symbolic , ,figures representing

all equally perfect. Magdeburg is praised
as a most exquisite : performance, Spires cen

the victim. of Tilly's hordes, sits, before us,
discomfitted, dishevelled, her arms hanging
down, her eyes fixed in despair. Happily,
Magdeburg has long ',iecoveed from her
fall, and again become one ,of. the, richest,
and most industrious cities in Germany,while
her Spanish, Croatian agdillungarian devas
tators remain much in the, same condition

an artistic whole. The five statues in the
centre, indeed, are generally thought to con
stitute a splendid ensemble; but the seven
others, placed much beneath Luther, and
divided from him by nearly thirty feet, are
described as having the appearance of se
parate monuments. To connect them with
the centre and each other it is necessary to
bind them with the strong thread of his
tory; architecturally they are centrifugal
rather than centripetal. The circumstance
also that the twelve statues are of four dif
ferent sizes scarcely contributes to impart
to the monument that air of composed sym•
metry indispensable in every composite
work of art. Luther is ten and a half feet
high ; the figures at his feet, seven feet; the
corner statues of the balustrade," eight_ and
a half feet, and those of the tow'hs, six
feet.
The inauguration was graced by the pre
sence of the King and the Crown Prince of
Prussia, the King of Wurtemberg, the Grand
Dukes of 'Weimar and Hesse, 'Prince
Liam of Baden and other members
royal families of Germany. °flax:lies I see

gentlemen not mending the patter, the
ceremony does not in ,every particular

expected. Times .have ,changed i since

that is now worshipped by the Majority.
The concourse ofstrangers was immense,
some reports speaking of one hundred
thousand, and among them many clergy
men. , .

OUR CORSETS
are now so well known for their superior Shape, Material and
Workmanship, that it is, perhaps, unnecessary for us to speak of
them further than to say that we have greatly enlarged our. assort
ment of styles, both of our own make and importation, and can now,
safely defy competition. It may be well said that '
In Mrs. SHERMAN'S CORSETS, ladies find
The laws of Health with Fashion's taste combined;
Supporting equally each separate part,
They cramp no action of the hinge or heart,
And no iuj aeons ligature is placed •
To mar the flesture of tho natural waist.
Their fit is certaitrand what's sure to please,
In all positions there is . perfect ease;
The figures, of the young they-help to form,
Aiding and not repressing every charm;
Irregularities of shapethey hide,
So that by none can slight defects lie spied,
While e'en a Flgtire, which is understood
As being "liad,"'inaY by their help seem good;
And matrons wearing them a boon will rain,
Their early symmetry they'll long retain.
