It is e opie time since - any fine sculpture has been offered to the public view in this city. It would be invidious,. perhaps,to 'say that none’ was ever offered ad worthy a visit as this, bnt it is not too much to say. that in many respects this; work is superior to anything that Americans have bad the opportunity of Inspecting, in their own' country. It ia a simple; compact group, the? tnotber'wilh her dead boy lying across her knee., 1 It is a grand poem, a complete history of that j strange and wonderful moment when the first; woman saw the first solemn presence of death.; The Eve is it strong woman, as she -should be, beautiful as sbe must have been. She has foondj the pale body, ana when Abel has nots responded to ; her voice- she. has -fallen on!- one knee, swnng him • across the ' other,, and as his ‘bead fails back.in the. powexiess) ftltllufle of death, she looks into his'face with a countenance full, of contmiding emotions, chlef est of.which iatheexpressfon’of inquiry, ‘‘What! Is this ? Is this the curse ?” This face oi Eve IsT a marvel of art, and one who sits down to study; It will go. away eUent and" tbonghifal, os having; seen in the marble the first great grief of ai mother, mingled'with wonderment at the vißiosrf of the hltherto.unknown event of human deatu.; The face of Abel is like Ms mother’s; vet not like;; since it is more massive and bold.' The 1 attitude' of the dead. body, the anatomy Of the, whole' work indeed, is remarkably fine. It is worth; noting, that although this is a representation of death, there is nothing napleasant' in the effect.! On the contrary, the.great beauty;of the whole,; the entirety of the group, the expression and 1 the admirable rendering in marble,of the occur rence, are so attractive and interesting, that we can hardly doubt that some one of oar citizens who is a lover of art,and able to adorn his house with such a collection, will secure it at once. It should, in the meantime, attract visitors, and’ will abundantly, repay tboße who go to see it.

PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, JUNE 2, WHAT WEABECOIUNG TO. IIY -JOHN QUILL. It may be as-well to begin this interesting rtory by stating that the name' of the heroine Is- Mary Jnnc Caruthers, M. D! Bhe was a physi-; can with a large practice, in which she expected to bo made perfect. She, was twenty-four years: of age, with bright-, blue eyes, tresses of gold, ; -tortoise shell specs, a real alabaster brow, her, own teeth plugged with clghtecn carat gold, fea tures of the Teutonic, or Fislerriile typo, and a; temperament slightly inclined to the atrabilious*, lmrellgion she was a ftepnblican and she always; voted the Presbyterian ticket. She preferred her i ice cream without cake; and she had a sister , named Eliza. Her ideal was a man: who could; cure cholera infantum without the application of eoothing syrup. This then was the. iatr young creature whom I am about to present fo the gentle reader, - ' ‘ -, Dr. Mary Jane Caruthers sat in her consnlta*; tion room just os the shades of night were falling fast, for her office hoars were from seven to nine P. M. A volnme lay. upon the table which the casual observer might well have supposed to con tain the tender strMnstof some sweet Blnger, in whose' rhythmicai\oatences and amid whose glowing Imagery. this'Wveiy being revelled with all the ecstacy of. a sensitive and poetic -natnre.-; Bnt the casual observer wonid haVe been .wrong,; for the book was entitled “MacphersononGoat,” afid those lines, traced in a delicate female hand upon the perfumed note paper close by, so fat 1 from embodying the gcntlo- expression of the emotions of her woman’s heart, were merely the diagnosis of on aggravated cs6e of torpidity of the liver.-- j "... ' While Mary Jane Caruthers sat cutting her rosy, nails with a thumb lancet; and allowing her. thoughts to wander pensively over the) probable result of on overdose of chloride of potash whlfh she had : inadvertently given to a patient that; morning, a knock might have been heard—and : mdcetl was heard—upon the door. The hero of. thia tale, whose name was Bob Jones,.entered. Bob. Jones was -in ; love with Dr. Mary . Jane; Caruthers, and he sold hats. He was tail and 1 slender, with a shghtly cagle ey e. and a massive * forehead that reached clear over to the back of! his neck, lor he was bald. He had assumed his i purpleand fine linen and other good clothes thl®; evening,' and. come around to ask Mary Jane; Caruthers to be his own sweet love. s After passing the. compliments of ti)e teison, and bewildering even Mary Jane’s fine mind with; some abstruse and very able remarks upon the , weather, Mr. Jqnes proceeded to business: ; “Maty Jane Caruthers, M. D.,” said he, “I have long wailed for an opportunity to tell you ; that lor many years 1 have entertained for you - sentiments ofthe tenderestcharacter. Often and' often, when I have tried to speak to you upon the; subject, my emotion has been so great that it; choked my utterance,'andl have been compelled: to silencebut—” j -‘ That is cadsCd by a spasmodic action of the; muscles, resulting from their sympathy with the nervous Bystems” said Mary Jane Caruthers, heed lessly. . ~, : “Ah, indeed, yon don’t say!” observed R.: Jones; “but now I feel that I most speak, I most tell you that yon have won my heart; that it is yours, and jours alone; that—” “I have dissected them,” said Bhe;- “the heart, or cardia, is an azygous muscle, of an irregular pyramid shape, situated obliquely and a little to the left side in the chest. Ah, I know it well, it rests on the diaphragm,” said Mary Jane, with an absent expression on her sweet face. "Probably it does; bnt I wish to say that mine beats with but one emotion, that of affection for. y on. It throbs witbanxious fear lest yon should not respond to my ardent feelings; lest it cannot be that my heart shoHld beat in unison with yours. It you’knew—” “Yon need calm. Cardiotromus, or palpita- tion of the heort,ls the result of excitement of the nervous system. .Yon must take valerian and tie down. How’s your pulse, anyhow?” said M.. J. Camthers, in a dreamy voice. ~ “Do not trifle with me, my angel. If you feiiew how I longed to nnclpg my stampering tongue and whisper soft vows of love—” “A vibration of the vocal cords caused. by the expulsion of air from the lungs would produce this effect,'’ observed tbo implacable Mary Jane. “To whißper soft YoWb of love and tell you how I have dreamed through weary months of the blissful moment when my bosom’s tenderest emotion could find expression, and upon my entranced hearing would fall the gentle accents of your own sweet voice responding to my suit. If yon knew—” “In order to do that, I should have to cause a ■ vibration of sonnd which, 'striking against the mtmbrana tympanum; would be transmitted through the labyrinth until it agitated the audi tory’ nerve, which conveys the impression to the brain. It is very interesting. I cut up some re mains to study it this morning,” said the tan to- 1 lizing M. J. Caruthers. - “Such may be the case,” said Bob Jones, in agony, ‘‘“but as I was saying, if yon- knew how I have longed to gaze into yo.nr eyes, stained as they are with the azure of the - vault of heavens and”— : 7“ ‘“Ex-cuse me; the color is caused only by a de posit of pigment in the in teres tiees of theins,” said Mary Jane, with indignant warmth. “Oh, we11,,1 don't care a cent if it is,’’ said Mr. Jones, for .he V a B matl - “Bnt to Continue. To -feei that I could pillow that fair and noble head .upon my heart and Claim it as my own, and toy with those'tresses, in which 1 a sunbeam is ra diantly tangled — i “Do talk sepse, Jones,” said Miss Caruthers.’ Hair is only a conical corneous substance issuing from the skin.; -Prof. Bilks says so in his treatise, on “Cutaneous Diseases.” I should think I ought to know, oughtn’t I.” ‘•‘And watch your eyes • sparkle with delight as. I pictured to you the blissfnl future through whiclrwo would walk, hand in hand, loving each other.” ' • I'.-Y-r , '“But that wouldn’t do it,Mr. Jones. The spark ling of the eye Is-merely, the .reflection, of .light falling upon tho transparent media. I’ll be| you a quart 'of paregoric it is." “Iwlll admit the truth,” observed Bob-=Jones,. in despair. ;; “But I ask you for your Jove, Doctor Caruthere; I ask you to give mo your heart, to place y6nr 'lh'',jmlhe, and •let me lead you to the altar, where -—” . “Do you.know what will cnßue If I do,’’-asked: Mary Jane, more tenderly. “No.” - ■ ■’ V . \ ; “Why you. will hold.iri your grip precisely; . twenty-seven. distinct bones, among which mayj K» ‘mentioned the Carpus; ’the Metacarpus; and’ the Phalanges. “But you cannot refuse it to me?: If so,I shall, go through life a tried and mournful man, bear, ng the heavy burden of my anguish alone, de pressed and melancholy, and dead to tho joys of existence. Oh I Mary Jane, I—— “Those symptoms would indicate indigestion, which is after all merely a disturbed state of the stomach caused by a deficiency of gastrlc julce and pancreatic fluid. Yon need dieting and ex ercise. Let, me look at your tongue, Bob,my boy.” “Ob, Mary Jane, if I could but hear one gentle, word of love from these sweet lips,and In rap mre press them to mine in one long, delicious kiss, I would die content. I would—” • t - - “Kissing,” said Mary Jane Camthere, Mi D.,: sententiousiy, “la not what it’s emckod up to' be. When yon come down to dots-about lt,' it is nothing more than a mere temporary contrac tion oftho orbicularis oris muscle. I’ll leave it to. Dungllson’s Physiology if it ain’t.” “OIL Mary Jane Caruthers, Ml. D., do not thus trifle with my holiest emotions. Say that yon; do not reject my suit. Say that yon love me and; will be let me clasp yon to my aebing . heart with rapture, and—” i - “It can’t be done with rapture. Clasping to. the aching heart, so called, is accomplished through the action of. the biceps and flexors o> - the forearms, with the hicepß and dsitoid, and the, pectoralis muscles of the chest, and the scupn- : laris, splnalus afid infra-spiralis of the shoulder,'' was what Mary Jane said. Thus did these- two young beings, both In the morning of life when tho halcyon days are un-. broken by the flitting of a single solitary summer cloud,' bold sweet communion of soal with soul, - and appear to have a - j oyons and first-rate - time: •I will not linger longer upon the sacred privacy of the scene. The hour when the soul breaks through tho mystic barriers of its reserve, and poms out its laVißh wealth'of love, thrilling the heart Which bcats'Tesponsivcly to it, and satisfy ing Its'indefinable cravings after its ideal, should, be hidden from a cold and brutal world.

Fall sown cerealSi are In splendid condition, as the heavy shows and steady frosts of the winter protected them, and the cold, wet spring has given them great strength of root and fibre.

The few warm, clear days with which we havo been favored have been actively devoted to this work, and we have good reason to hope that afair crop will be realized. We speak more particularly with ■ reference to the crop in Western Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio. The latest reports from nearly every section of the State give encouraging accounts of the fruit' affd grain prospects. They aft? both beyond; danger and thp promises are they will be more : than usually abundant.

Fro* all parts of this county the information is to the same effect, and there is every indication of an abundant,lruit crop. , From’ Bharonville, Hamilton county, we have tho following:—The; wheat and barley.crops, are of but little conse quence, having been nearly all frozen out during the severe winter weather. Very large • crops or com and potatoes are raised around here, ana; those having a failure of wheat and barley can yet plant com and potatoes and get a good crop.

Opinions of the Cnilish and French Press, (From the London Ndtvs, May 18. J • The American Senate inet on Saturday, abcOrd-; ing to appointment, to consider its verdict, but • tbe Atlantic cable has not brought the short and simple message that was expected. President fJohneon is neither acquitted or - convicted, but one group o facts which: form the basis of tho Inst article of the impcachmcnt-bas been set aside - as not warranting a conviction, while as to those . which remain the verdict ol tho Senate is reserved. Tho members of the Senate seem to- regard their, work as too Important to be neglected,-but at the .jqme time not so argent as to require to be hur- : rlodl'- Evidently no serious consequences are apprehended from either a conviction or acquittal, or wo should not bear of a verdict being rendered by instalments; The court will not meet again until to-morrow week, when it will proba bly see Its way more clearly to a final decision. -whatever may be tbo ultimate deliverance of. the Senate on Mr. Johnson’s impeachment, the trial itself will remain-on record ,as .ope of the, most remarkable of modern times. - But It Is re-. markable chiefiy for the absence of that tragic , element of excitement and danger with which; impeachment trials have been- usually actmmpa-; nled. It is not every generation which witnesses • the trial or the-Chief Magistrate of a great people,; bnt the trial wnich is now drawing to a close; might have been quite an ordinary and common- : place event for any disturbance or even excite-; ment It has produced outside the gates of the Capitol. Buslnesahos Buffered nothing, leglala-; tlon has only been slightly hindered, poJucal movements have gone on jnst the Same as before and reconstruction has progressed with greatly, accelerated movement. Not even within the- Capitol has (hero -been any revival of the ex-.- cltemcnt- with,, which' the impeachment- vote was first received in tho House. The ■ Senate chamber has, of course, presented day by day a very singular sdeetaele; • bnt its singularity has consisted quita as much-in ■ the dull formality of the proceedings as In the ; representative character of the persons-gathered • together to take part in them, or to witness them.; •A stranger from the Old World, with hisimaginar; lion full of pictures of the trial of Strafford or ; Charlcsl., would have been unable to realize the i : fact that the dull and decorous scene before him i - was the greatest State trial whiph the New World , has ever witnessed. - Tho scene would, of course,: have had leatnres of interest peculiarly Us own, bu t they would not have been’ tragic. The Chief Justice;' dccupying tha choir with the lmpar- • tlnilty hntf dignity of-a-judge hearing :a ease of abstract law; the Senators writing at their , desks, or reclining In their arm chairs,- or reading the., papers, or writing letters .to ; their friends, and only rousing, to attend to some: point of interest In the argument or- tho testl- - •• monv; the counsel on both sides wrangling oyer - ; some point of procoduro, or getting up a. sharp - i contest of wit or bantet.

War: fought, out - • their battle over a gloss of grog, formed ra scene '. -which could never bo regatdCtfas a tragedy,, but: • which now and then might well, have been, mis , taken for a comedy. ,So completely ont of place; i were all the passions which have characterized : • the State trials of history'that attempts to invest - : the proceedings With factitious importance had: : -the effect of a burlestmo. The ordinary talk . about treason fell fiat. It was a simple question : of law and fact, and the Senate ana the public have treated it as such.', Mr. Johnson is accused : of a misdemeanor lnJila-adminlsir&Uou, the pen alty for which, is at most removal from his office. | The trial, accordingly, has dealt with compara tively small affairs. It has been tedious rather > than exciting. Th 6, political element has been > kept ‘in the background, and extreme partisans - bn either side have been reduced to poworiessness. ' The speeches have been legal arguments, not im passioned appeals, and it has been found impos : sible to invest them, with the intense personal in terest which a great triad nsnally creates. [From tho Paris Debate, May 18.1 In any case, if Mr. Johnson, has .escaped con-; demUation, wp see that the majority which pro nounced against him in the Senate is sufficiently compart to paralyze, his Presidential : power during, the'few months which he will have to re moln at the White House. ' , . [From the Paris Llberte, May 18,] ; , The acquittal of President Johnson is an event which will produce; and deservedly, a. deep and durable impression throughout. Europe. Far more emphatically than a condemnation would have done, it attests the strength of American institutibae, and proves that justice has no surer and more efficacious guarantees than those pro vided 1 by’ libetty. Dong.live liberty! Glory to the United States! - : ' [Froa the Paris Temps, May 18. J * * *ls this first vote decisive? The telegram -which,-h6wever, iH rather obscurely drawn up, seems-to intimate .that such is: tho case, and the , adjournment of the Senate to tho ■ 2(ith of May .without .voting on the other articles seems to support that view. If Mr. Johnson is definitely acquitted the causes leading to this result will fotm an interesting andennona snbjeet of study. But even at present weare enabled to say that the very fact itself of the impeachment, the manner in which it has • been con ducted, the supreme calmness with which the people of the United States have looked on at its various phases, the won derful regularity with which the political and social organization of the country has continued its functions in the mldst of a drama the simple announcement of which would have sufficed to overthrow any of the states of the Old World, demonstrate the entire superiority of American instimtions. We feel bound also to remark that the legal acquittal of the President,nnder the cir cnmstances mentioned in, the despatch, consti tutes none the less a moral condemnation. The head of the-Executive, although saved by the terms of the constitution;will remain deposed in the mind of the conntry. , ’ ’ - mom NEW YORK. -.-New Yore; June 2.—The steamboat train, for Boston was thrown from the track about a quar-: ter of a mile below Providence, R. 1., at 5 o'clock on Saturday, in consequence of a largo amount of sand and gravel having been washed upon the: rails by the severe rainstorm of Friday night.
