And the labble applauded their hoarsest.
The Governor aw from the City Uall

The orphans were burnt In the flrei
"Take heart ! dear fiieurb of my soul I" said he,
"You h jvo well sustained my insertion,
And the Un'on in Its ncce?ily,

A MODEL BY nARBIET HOSMEB.
A very beautiful mailel iu plaster, which ha3
breu n't, up in the State Library, ts tbu work of
Miss lliiviiet llo-iui:r. it is presented by the
Freedmcn's Momtntdt Assocation ot St. Lou'.s,
for whicii s.iuety H was built; and it is under
. stood tbat if Vie derin is adopted, tbe funds of
the Firedmto's .AsHiuiution will be oiinp'.od with
those of the National Association. Tue dus'su
is that of a temple of lame, and is an effort to
express the idea that the monument to the
memory of Mr. Lincoln is based upon the two
great acl3 of bis auinini; nation the emauc'ipa
tiou of tbe slaves and the preservation ot tbe
Union. The temple will be eighty ieet in height,
au b??ng circular, about filly lect in diametev.
3t is to be built ot eranile and marble, but tbe
many statues nud relief's with which it is
mounted will be of bronze. The following ex
tract from a let. or froia the author will give an
ide.i of the general coupe of the design:
"Comraeticiiiu with his earlier history, I have
represented other scenes of tfle President's life,
in the four has rekfs which surround the lower
base. In the tir-t his birth; his journey
through tbe woods to his new home iu Indiana;
and his occupations as buiMerot I05 cabins,
rail-splitter, tlut-boatman, aud lurmur. Iu tbe
second as stump-speaker; as member of the
Lecislatnre; as bidd'.nc; farewell to his constitu
ents and lriend9 at Sprinctield; as takiusr the
catb of ollice of President of tie United States
at Wafehlnton. In the third lour memorable
sveats of the war the bombardment of
Bumter, the capture of Mobile aud of Pe'.ers
burg, and tbe surrender of Lee at Appomat
tox. And iu the fourth the aasiniuiou, the
funeral procession, and final iutcrment at
(Springfield.
"Upon the 'circular columns which inclose
these bos-reliefj, and crowning the first bine of
the temple, ore placed tour statues, represent
inn the condition ot the negro as it actually
existed at different periods ot the Presidents
four years ot ofiice; tirst, as exposed iu chuius
lor sale; second, upon tbe plantation; third, in
guide and assistant to our troops; aud fourth,
as a soldier aud a freeman. Above there columns
rise an octagonal buse, four bides of which con
tain the Inscriptions:
"Abraham Line ''In:
Martyr-Prrsldent 01 the Uultecl States;
Kuiani Ipaior I Four Mill'ons ol Meu;
Preserver of tbe American Uulon.'
"Upon this rests a circular base, forming the
immediate baeol the temple, upon which, is
represented a has relief composed of thirty-six
female ficures, haad 10 baud, symbolical ot the
iiniou of the tnirty--dx States. Upon this rise the
eight columns of the temple, supporting a cor
nice, upon which are inscribed the concluding
words 01 the Emancipation Proclamation: 'And
upon this, sincerely believed to bo au act of jus
tice, I invoke the considerate judgment of man
kind and the gracious tavor of Almighty Gol.'
"Within the temple a stttue of the ded Presi
dent rests upon a sarcophagus, and the four
niouroiuK Victories, with trumpets reversed,
which guard and surround the whole, record the
great sorrow of tbe Dation, stricken don at the
moment of proclaiming its triumph."
TUE DESIGN OF II. O. VOLE.
This is of stikingly original appearance. The
monument is one huuured aud twenty leet in
height, divided iuto three d'.stiuct parts or sec
tions the first part, or lower section, starting
from a base ei?ht feet high, with a plan in the
foini of a pentagonal star, and would require a
circle seventy-five feet iu diameter to circum
scribe it. The external aujjlea are cut off so at
to leave, in their stead, a lace four feet wide by
eight feet high, which will contain illuBtrat'.ous
of some ot the most eventful epochs in the
career of Mr. Lincoln, together with thenadoaal
arms cut in bas relief.
"Immediately over the columns below are five
proups of statuary, viz., Justice, Wisdom, Fame,
History, and the filth representing Mr. Lincoln,
holding in his riht bund tbe proclamation of
rmancipution, while with the other he unites
Liberty pud Union, personified by two beautiful
children; Liberty htlduig tbe baunerol victory
and Union the olive branch, while an eagle
perches on each of tbo augles of the entablature.
Above thin the last or upper section rises thirty
two feet and counts ot a pentagonal pedestal
with cap aud bae of Athene, and tbe die ot
blue marble with red panel and star of white
murblo iu the centre. This pedestal is
surmounted by a statue of America, which
terminates the structure, and is represented
by a beauliiul female whoe ri?ht baud rests on
an anchor, and it upon tbe word of God, while
In her left she holds the plobe. This figure ig
to be cut from the finest Italian marble. The
baso contains five pedestals surmounted with
Btatusry, tbe first group representing tbe white
aud black boy building together, symboliiug
the present position of the two races; second
proup represents one of the aborigines of Ame
rlcu, whose posture and expression indicates
astonishment and amazement; tbird group is
civilization represented by the husbandman,
together with instruments of science, art, aud
commerce; fourth group is tbe soldier's welcome
nome, and fifth, the slave mother made free by
the rending of her chains, and poiutinjr her
children, the hope of her race, to the group of
Liucoiu and the figure of Justice.
1EONABD W. VOLK'9 DESIGN.
Jlr. Vplk offers two designs of mausoleum
monuments. The plan marked "A" U oval I
lorm, the greater diame'er of the ellipse beiii?
tighty-twb feet and the les?cr sixty feet. It ts
circumscribed by a terrace wall of Qulncf
granite, and has fonr entrances lea lln to the
temple, which stands in the centre of the ellip e.
This Umple is forty fret in diameter and ferty
three fief high. A colonnade of twenty-tbreo
dorlc pillars surrounds the mausoleum, standing
three srd a half feat front the walls, and sup
ports the frlezo abovs. The domej of the mau
soleum is to be a perfect hemisphere, twenty
two feet In diameter. Tbe top of this dome is to
have a convex glass, six lect iu diameter, wi'li
the sun's disk raised in the centre, with diverg
ing rays tpringlng from it to light tbo centre of
the dome. Thirteen American nvirbU columns
reprefeDt the thirteen original ritatcs, as tho
lolumns on the exter.or repie'-ent the Stnles
admitted from the formation of tbe Constitution
to the time of Air. Liucoln's death.
Auothir design, by tbe samo author, has an
elevation to the top of the dome of fifty six f et,
with a terraced base foity-ei2ht feet square.
The mauscleum is octagonal in lorm, and has a
dome of white New Hampshire granite, the
dome being furnished with au opeuim; five feet
in diameter, which admits the light on a colo
Fal statue of Lincoln, which stands bnueaih.
Four statues, rcpreentiu? Liberty, Justice,

Mr. J. Wemys Jobsou, of this city, writes as
follows about Au.-iralU iu the September num
ber of the American Exchange and Review:
Sjduey now contains a population of 100,000,
and the whole colony ot Now .South Wales
iitimbers about tluicu tiiat au-ount It exports
wool to the extent of about Sf.OOO.OOO per au
num, tallow to that of $aOU,00j, innl cold aliout
&2,ii00,0i)0. The supply ot the list is daily iallimr
oil, mauy richer mines bavin? been discovered
in the adjoining colony of Victoria. It ha', be
sides, six or seven woollen factories, tubricutiu.
a species of Tweed considerably iu demand,
three sugar refineries, sixteen soup manufacto
ries, and several similar establishments. About
HJO.OLO tons of shipping used to enter the port
iu tbe course of the year, and as mauy to quit it,
but the number has lately talleu off. Tbe ligbt
houees at tbe heads, or entruuee to the hirbor,
nre most dangerously arranged. Instead of their
bein;r fixed one on each promontory, two are
affixed upon one. The consequence w'u9 that a
few years ago a large ship, named the Dunbar,
with many hundred cmiura-its, while enteriug
the poit in couiidence at night, struck upon ttte
rock", and was eo completely lo3t that iu the
morning only one man survived.
Ihe climate of New South Wules is warm. The
seasons are tbe reverse of ours, the winter com
mencing in July, and January being midsum
mer. Ihe thermometer aeiages 80 degrees;
but mos-t disagreeable aud uuhcahhy hot wiuds,
firoceuiiiug from the interior, 1'iequeutly eauue
t to rte to 100 or eveu to 125. Jn the mornings
and ihroughout tho day there is an agreeable
sea-breeze, and in the eveniuga it is followed by
one from the land; so tbat, oa the whole, it is
healthy. About tho seventh of the land was
originally allotted to tho Church of England,
but tbe revenues ate now divided amongst all
religious denominations, independent of creed.
Tbe Wecleyausore at present tue niostnumeious,
and tbe Ilotnan Catholic archbi-ibop drives tbe
most splendid team of horses, as well as the
most maguiticent cairiage iu Sydney, devo'itig
the git ater part of bis state allowance of $01)00
per annum to this purpo3e. The colouy Is
governed by a legislature consisting, on
tbe whole of ritty-four meinbars,
of whom thirty six ate elected for tbe
lower or popular division, and the remainder,
or upper bouse, are nominated by tbe tloveruor,
who is appointed by the English crown. Its
police regulations are very bad, aud the country
is still much infested by bushrangers, or escaped
convicts, who have betaken themselves to the
woods aud the highways, and pluader or mur
der all who fall into their hands.
Victoria is the second colony of Australia,
and now the most importautof ttuy. It is au
ofishoot of New South Wales, aud separated
from it upwards of a dozen years U30. It may
claim, however, to have been originally esta
blished from Van Diemau's Land, lor in 1835, a
Mr. Batman landed from tbat island aud took
possession of Port Philip Head, which now
leads to the harbor of Melbourne. A few months
later he was followed by a newspaper editor
named John Pascoe Fawkner, who disembarked
where the city of Melbourne now btands, and
purchased ground Horn the natives tor a few
dollars, which is now worth $lt0.000 per acre.
"Johnny," however, as he is tei med for he yet
survives-did not protlt by this nefarious
arrangement, for he now lives in comoara
tive poverty, and has the niortitlca.
tion of seeing what were once his pigsties and
farmyard occupied by the most splendid stores
aud richest edifices in the colony. Melbourue,
named afterairlvolous and disreputable English
peer of tbut name is now the wealthiest town
in Australia, containing upwards ol 120,000
inhabitants, aud being largely indebted for its
prosperity to American citizeus, by whose enter
prise it was mainly, iu the first instunce, bailt
up nud established. The Knglish, however,
behaved most ungratelully to tho founders,
rising against them so soon as they found
themselves in suflicknt number;, aud ultimately
expelling them from the place, liver since it
has been noted lor its violent ami. American
feeling; and the writer of tbis article was pre
cipitated from a platform twelve leet high merely
because he, at a public meeting, opposed a mo3t
illiberal taritt'mainly d'nectoJ against American
commerce, and, above ull, resisted tho atrocious
conduct ol its colonial uuthot liies in tilting out
the Shenandoah to prey upon our peaceful aud
defenbelChS maiine.
The colony ot Victo .'la contains about 85,000
squure milts of territory, and possesses cou
siderabty preater agricultural resources th'iu
New South Wa.es; but as jet uo coal has been
discovered in it, and hence it cannot pretend to
lival tbe other iu manufacturing pursuits. At
tho present day it Iris a population of about
400,000 inbubitan s. and would rapi Jly increaso
but lor tbo abominable system of iuls"oveu
ment. Tbe chief au'.boiity there uuder tha
British Government Is a Sco'.ch adventurer
named McCulloch. Oilglnally a clerk and
agent of the great Seotlleh house of Denison A
Co., he roe upon their luins, and has pursued
a career which throws even aristocratic gov
eminent -into shade. Having mado his way
iuto the colonial legislature by every po-sible
agency, be has. with a few associates, seized
hold ol every ollice in the power of the execu
tive, and organized a pang of rnfilans who
attend public methugs and beat down all oppo
nents. The scenes of violence exhibited on
these occasions are wholly incredible. Meu
have the hair torn from their faceo and the
clothes Irom their backs, and are fortunate
indetd if they escipo without loss of life or
limb. All the violence deemed peculiar to
American rugbs is wore than outdpne nere. Mr,

part of the world is vice so flourishing or virtue
ko openly contemned. Its contrasts of wealth
and poverty, luxury and mi'erv.brulal sp'endor
and educated povcty exceed thse of Linden
Itself. Barristers niid gradrates of the bpst
tinlversitios of Rncland are tbera found driving

Victoria possesses lar nnre ex'eu-dve a iriler

be taken out of the d'stvict on houe occasions
to the amount ot $30,000 000 per sear Tbo

bas now fallen off one-bait, and is only to be got
bv machinery, fn tho halcyon days of hand
mining the extravagance of tbe mlneis lar
exceeded that of their Sydney prototypes. Tbey
regularly came down to Melbourne, and ued to
pour out Champagne in buckettuls. Now, now
ever, tbey stop at home aud boast that there
thev have equal attraction?; and doab'.le-s
amon$ such ntn uclons are others of a yet more
disgraceful character.
Australia prepnts no desirable field for emi
gration. The British (.iovemuient bas la'fiy
made strcuuous efforts to m luce the inhabitant
of Kngland, Ireland and Scotland to proceed to
it3 shores instead oi those of America, and have
emploj ed acents to extol f ho various senlenieuls,
but especially Querns, and in the most eVrava
pent terms, and tbe result bas invariably been
aii-appointment. In the last cirgo of passengers
shipped off to this colouy with infinitely less c ue
and provision made for them than if they hud
been so many bast?, the discontent was' so
general, that as already mentioned, the v con
sideicd even shipwreck on the shores of M.d
biUine 11s n relict, and scarcely a ship arrives in
this poit without the newspaoers teeming with
the mo?t nbominablo reports of outrages offered
by the officers of the vessel to female paseners.
There is no plnce iu tho world where virtue,
on the prt of woman, is so little appreciated.
Iu the. ciiy of Ryduey, which in this respect is
still wowe than Melbootn", It U positively
revolting to witness the number ot girls of tho
tendeicrt B'-ef from twelve down even to six
yeurs of nee traiued up to cume; aud tha
youth of the opposite sex are in both cities
encournned in every speMes ot c::ces, but espe
cially inebiiatiau. The hi Icons policy ol Anue
of Austria, who purposely demoralized her
sons. to preclude their interference in public
affairs, ai pecr3 to have bc-n revived oy some
miscreaut hi re, and tbo couscqnence is that a
race Is growing up more dcpiavcd and degene
rate even ihan their forefather. Physically,
tbey fall off too, tho girls boru in the colonies
bpifig dwarfish, and the hoys exceedingly weazel
faced. Eotli are amazingly precocious, however,
especia'ly iu vice. The r public language in
the streets exceeds ail beliel; and it may bi re
marked tbit if a stranger asks t- r any informa
tion, either from tliein or tbe erou-up popu
lation concerning bis route, ho is invariably
despatched in the wrong diree'lon; if a well
conducted female, she will tie directed to tbo
most improper quarter of the city, and both
will be "crainmed;' with tbe fal e3t tufor'natbn
as well as cheated, on every occisbn. TUi3 Is
termed "colonial," and greatly do the iuuabi
tants rcioice if they can thus deceive any new
comer either from Europe or America, us tbey
surmise that it implies their superior sagacity.
Under such circumstances it is vaiu to look lor
any improvement in the colonies; those who
have emigrated from England being only intent
in raising wbat they term "a pile" (or sum of
money) sufficient to enable them to return on l
open a tavern at home, while tbo natives have
no iutuie before them at all.
The Question of Diet.
An Italian, who is at once a member of the
Parliament of Italy, and a Professor of Medi
cine, has proclaimed that his couutrymen are
under-fed. Not only does Protestor Mantegp.zza
hold tbat Italians puffer in body by living too
poorly, but he a'so contends that their mental
energies are thereby lessened. The weakness of
the individual, he says, is correlative with tbe
weakness ot the nation. If each worker does
less than he ought, the productive power of tho
nation is diminished. Hence a long train of
eils. Taxes canuot bo levied on luxuries when
the shter necessaries of lile nre alone resorted
to. Taose who think they have done enough
when tbey barely keep body and soul together
are uawotiby members of society. There is no
iorce in reserve for the hour of need. They have
neither money to contribute lor the common
we:.!, nor the aid of strong riht arms to Dring
to tbe gieat duty of national defense. U may
seem an exaggeration to say that, because tbe
Italians live upon macaroni and watermelons,
the Italian Cbancelh-r of tbe Exchequer is puz
zled how to arrange his budget so as 10 avoid a
deficit. Nevertheless, this is a statement, basfd
on lacts which it were presumptuous either to
repudiate or ignore.
It is customary (says the London Dai'y 2Wios)
to assert tbat iu Italy there can be no occasion
for eating so much salid lood and driukiug as
much stimulating liquur as iu Euglund. . There
is no doubt that in the former country life may
be sustained on a diet which would be equiva
lent to starvation in the latter; but it is impos
sible to deny that whoever is as well nourished
in Italy us in England can undergo tar more
bodily fat;gue, can sustain greater mental exer
tion, thau a native who saves his money aud
stints his appetite. It is almost a truism that an
English navvy can do three times as much as
any foreign laborer. The reason for this is,
tbat be i-i better nourished. If be work at high
pressure, he docs not neglect laying iu a suf
ficient stock ot fuel and liquid. 'Foreigners
would soon rival him were they to copy his
example. We are glad that Profe.-aor Mante
gazza bas not only grasped the e truth, but
has alfo had the courage to iuculcate them. We
shall be glad to learn that his countrymen have
been influenced by what is sage in his counsel.
He rightly styles It the advice of a medical mn
and a patriot. There are others wbo would do
well to ponder tho subject, for it is one which
concerns the well beiug of every nation, tbat
each individual composing itshould be prepared
for doing the maximum of work, both physical
and mental, by possessing a frame consolidated
aud perfected by substantial nourishment. An
insufficient dietary is the true cause of the
dec'iLe and fall of any people. Eat then,
pMriots, cat; eat for sour country: or, if you
like it better, eat for the throne, tbe church and
the constitution.
Arc Time Monsters iu a Utah Lake?
The editor of the He3erei Lveni.ig Kews, who
accompanies Brigham Youu on his trip to
Northern Utah, writes of tbe "monsters"
rerorted to have been discovered In B-.'ar Lake
in tbat territory :
"We have had conversation with. Bro'ber
f barle? C. hlch and other brethren from Bear
Luke Valley, respecting the monsters which,
have bmi seen In the" lake. They ail firmly
believe the account as published. They con
sider the tettimony that has been given by si
it any individuals, wbo have seen these crea
tures in so many places, and under a var eiy of
circumstances, indisputable. The Indians'
traditions corroborate all tbat has been said of
the e creatures. It is well knon th-it the
Ind:ans will not camp near the Lake, and '.hey
have uever been known to ba he in Us waters.
Thejhave persisted in stating tbat there were ter
rible monstets in the lake, of which they were in
fear, two of their tribe having withiu tho me
mory of Eome of their number been carried off
by them. If one or two persons onlv had seen
and described them, it might be ret down, even
if tbey were persons of good judsrment and cre
dibility, as an optical delusion; but they have
been lately seen by numbers, and at differeut
times and places, and their descriptions agree,
and they nli-o agree with the accouuts ot ihe
Indians. Various plans have been suggested
for ihe capture ol one or more ot them; out no
attempt bas as yet been made.
"One of those who aro said to have seen them
last, timed their speed, while passing from one
well-known point to another on tbe o'berslde
of tbe lake, with bis wa'ch, ant if the descrip
tion can be rel ed upon, a boat wo ild stand no
chance ot escaping if they were pursued or came
in contact with it."

whip Instead of oats. The true way Is to Invigo
rate the debilitated system by supplying the
blood with Its Life Element IRON, thereby
Infusing strength, vigor and new life Into al
.parts of tbe system, and building up an IRON
CONSTITUTION.
Thousands have been changed by the use o
this remedy, from weak, sickly, suffering crea
tures, to strong, healthy, and happy men and
women, and Invalids cannot reasonably hesi
tate to give it a trial.
