A scion of one of our Philadelphia families, Mr- Pierce Francis Connelly, has produced a wort oi sculpture which does credit to himself, to our city, and to the fair town of Florence, where it was executed. Mr. Connelly has completed the model of an allegorical group of five figura‘ a horse, which hBS been exhibited in Florence with great success, and has attracted the warm est tributes of admiration even from rival artists. The Florence press have contained courteous notices of the work,a rare circumstance in the cose of achievements of foreign artists.

Cnrtln, the newly-appointed Minis ter to Bue&lo, was - eerenaded last evening at his residence, No. 1818 Spruce street, by aboutfour , hundred soldiers who participated id tho late war, | and a nnmhcr of his personal friends. Hassler s ■ Band was in attendance, and contributed groatly I towards the evening’s entertainment. . ■ • j General S. D. Oliphant and Col. Richard EUi®, of the Pennsylvania Reserves, Captain A. M. K. t Storrie, and J. T. Worthington. Esq., were in the j parlor with Governor Curtin. A large number ot ladies and Mrs. Curtin and tho Misses Curtin were j in the drawing-room, from which a good view was had of the serenaders. About midnight Gov. Carlin appeared at the door of his residence, when three cheers were loudly given for him. He spoke as follows: i I aimoßt regret, fellow-citizens, to doprive you of (he pleasure of listening to more of that sweet ■ music for the purpose of hearing what I have to eay. Your presence to-night and this compli ment might havo an equivocal meaning—a satis faction that a citizen of Pennsylvania is about to leave the eountrv, or from tho gathering of a few of bis fellow-citizens to wish him God-spcod in that mission which it has pleased the Govern ment to confer on him. I take it in tho latter 6ense, for in long years of official connection with the people of Pennsylvania I have so many ties, so many momories of tho past, so much to bind me to this State and its glory and power, and the happiness and prosperity of its people, that I cannot but leave yon with re gret. The office that takes me abroad comes to me, my fellow-citizens, without solicitation. | Applause. 1 X did not ask for it myself, nor did I ask any man, or any body of men in Pennsylvania to make solicitations at the throne of official power for the high honor conferred upon me. [Applause. 1 Tim Presiden t of the United States gave me my office hlmseli (loud cheers |,of his own motion and will. What ever may have been my desorts, whether I have served this people faithfully In the highest honor which they gave to mo for six long anxious and laborious veers, or not, he at least was pleased to select a citizen of Pennsylvania for a high po sition without any solicitauion from any man or any phrty. Now, my friends, if the President of the United States had laid down before me personally all the positions in his gift, f would have laid my finger upon the Russian mis sion. | Applause.] Neither my training in iUe, nor nay coarse of study has qualified me tor either of the two great missions. Delicate ques tions are to be settled at these courts— compli cating already—incurred by reason of their course during the civil war in this country, which may result to the honor of the minister at the Court of St. James, or which may resnltin his disgrace. Igoto a friendly people. | Applause. J Strange, indeed, that the people living under the greatest monarchical government in the world, uad the people living under the only true free governmen t fn the world should have so long been triends. The people of Russia and America have always been friends. We feel peculiarly friendly to the present monarch of Russia, because, in the face of a powerful and rich aristocracy, he,in one day, by a decree from hie own wili.struch the shackles irem every slave in Russia, and made every man free [Cheers. | Nay, more, my friends and iel low citizens—il yon are not tfiy friepds you are at least mv countrymen—in the darkest hours ot tne war in 1868,when the conscription was searching for troops to fill the desolated armies of the K“- public, thronghout every town and city in this titale, and in ali tne loyal biales in tne Loiun, when gold had attained its highest point ol premium; when the two great Powers ot Europe were called upon, and we were trembling with anxiety lest they should recognize the nationality of the rebellion, there suddenly appeared a Russian fleot of armed ships in the harbor of New York | applause |. m December, lst>3, and tbe fleet sailed to Hampton Hoads and they spent tho winter in our waters. There waß no tirade, there was no flourish ot rhetoric, but thero was a silent admonition to the Powers abroad that if they recognized the nation ality of the rebellion the Czar of Russia was on the side of free government. | Applause |. Aud it is not only pleasant in that respect, my friends but it is pleasant to go to a friondlv people, and 1 break my ties with the people oE-Pennsylvania with more satisfaction" on that account. Truly it is cold, a cold country, but of a warm people; and in your presence to night I declare that in my official con nection with the people ot Pennsylvania, ana in my conduct during those six years, I am not ashamed to say I have no blushes to coo) in the snows of Russia. | Cheers I I separate, my friends, with great reluctance trom tbe men who served their country durint tbe war.

Oh, my friends, if I should re turn to my country and know that the thousands I of wounded men who are at the corners of your streets grinding organs and picking up a scanty living by begging, were provided for, I would teei 6till prouder of this great State of Pennsyl vania Yon are almost ont of debt.

We all ■ promised that. Let us redeem that promise, and I lei the great heart of the people of Pennsylvania move for the protection of that class of our fel ; low-citizens; and I am ashamed to say, to-night, ; Pennsylvania has not done her duty to the crip -1 pled and. maimed and helpless men of the war. fApplause. 1 I would to God that tho heart of Pennsylvania was moved in that direction. I congratulate yon to-night, my friends, that we are now at peace, and I trust that on my re turn I will find this great nationality all united, and oil the questions that agitated the public mind of the people of the North, South, and East and West be removed, and that I will find the American nation a great homogeneous people; that all the interests of trade and commorce will be flourishing; that labor will be well paid, that money will be of Us actual value, and that the greenbacks and the precious metal will be back to a gold standard in value. Governor Curtin then proceeded to urge upon his hearers the necessity of standing by the Gov ernment and by Us integrity; and as God has been pleased to give to you the blessing or this froe Government, as you hold it for yourselves, may you transmit it to your posterity, pure and free and strong, as it came from tho apostles of liberty in the Revolution. And now, my friends, I wish yon farewell. Ido not go in a day, or in two days. I expect to look in the faces of some of tbe men who survived the war beforo I go. It is not likely I will see yon again. I am much obliged to yon tor this compliment which you have paid me, and wherevor X go or stay, I will bo over grateful to the people of Pennsylvania for their continued support, for their confidence and re spect and 1 will return to Pennsylvania, ploase God to live and die amongst you; and I trust that nothing will occur while I am abroad to change my relations to the people of this State. There is one thiDg yon may roly npon, citizens of Philadelphia, that whatever capacity 1 may fill abroad, whatever I may do in the mission I am abont filling, I will maintain the honor and the integrity of my country. God's will bo done. I ApplanßC. | The band played “Home, Sweet Homo,” after which the party proceeded to tbe residence of Titian J.

Tilt: SCOTTISH CIIOIVH. some Scrap* ol_ HUiory flilliorlo On- known* A correspondent of the British Mail, writing from the Sweetwater (Wyoming; mining district, gives the following amusing accounts of his interview with an exile of Scotia: Among the choice spirits of the camp, I remember one little fellow of diminutive slatnre but genial temper who hailed from Caledonia and who bad something in hia manner remotely suggestive of Mr. Simon Tappertit. From himj as an aulhority, on matters connected with Scottish history, I learned some astounding facts touching the present Queen of England and the venerable iron crown. The following incident has probably been omitted by Victoria in her memories, and I am happy to be able to sup ply it The ancient iron crown was taken, as everybody knows (so at least said my his torian), by Sir William Wallace, from one of the Pnaraohs, tjuring the Egyptian wars. This may see ark surprising fact to many a student of history, but so it was. Moreover, this Wallace, who was a patriotic individual, guarded this crown sacredly for years, and kept it hidden in a well, but afterward re stored it to Robert the Bruce, at the time he extricated the latter from some difficulty. Probably this may have been after the cham pion's own head was stuck on London bridge —but never mind that According to the an cient legends, the crown was never, never to pass into the hands of the foreigner, for if it should ever press the brow of an English king the consequence thereof, in virtue of a treaty would be —would be something dreadfully calamitous to poor old Scotland. Her rights would be annihilated forever, and the English king would acquire unlimited sway. Well, tbis crown being now in possession of the Duke of Hamilton, the present Queen of England cast an eye upon it when sue paid a visit to his castle, and, in the simplicity of heart, she requested the ancient seneschal to hand it to her that she might put it on her bead. The hoary warden complied, and her Majesty was about to place the crown upon her brows. But the Duke drew his sword, and said, “Victoria, Queen, lay down that crown." And the Queen looked up in won der, and said, “My Duke of Hamilton, what meaneth this?" But the Duke only repeated in a stern voice, —“Victoria,Queen, lay down that crown.” And again, the Queen said, “My Duke of Hamilton,what meaneth this?” Ana then the ancient seneschal sudddely re membered the ancient legend and the treaty, and plucked the iron crown from the Royal hand. And once more the Queen said, “My Duke of. Hamilton, what meaneth this?” To which the patriotic Duke replied: “Victoria, Queen, had you put that crown upon your head, your head would have danced upon that pavement in your blood.” And the Queen was so terribly Beared that she quite forgot to enter the circumstance in her diary. Thus, one can study the Scottish history to advantage in the mountains. A Hula Bide in Florida. A gentleman writing from Femandina, Florida, to the Buffalo Commercial Adver tiser, gives the following amußing accounts of his adventures with a gentle mule. He says: The boys insisted that I needed relaxation- My health required it. I had a pretty fair ar ticle of health, I thought; enough to last me as long as I lived. But I must accumulate a stock for future ÜBe. The South was the place to get it. And riding was healthy. The sand is too deep to ride,except on horseback, so I thought I would take a ride. I applied to the livery man for a horse. He had one. He lboked sorrowfully at me, aB though he pitied me. Did I ever ride a mule? f never had. He had as good riding horses as ever were saddled, but if I wanted a “Rock Me to Sleep Mother” style of ride, I would take a mule. I don't consider myself a lirst-class judge Of mules. I had some vague notions in regard to them: supposed they would do a large amount of work with very little feed, and vyere immortal. I had read of one being driven over the same route by the same boy for 87 years/and he was a young mule vet. Bring forth the mule. The mule was brought. He was a meek looking cuss—a perfect “Uriah Heap" of a mule, so far aB “’Umbleness” was concerned. At least that was the view I took of him. Ho was Bad died, 1 and I mounted. For a mile or two he paced beautifully. I thought those old monks 1 had read .abput.knew..what-they-.were doing, when they traveled on mules. I had a high respect for their judgment. Just then my mule began to show symptoms—symptoms of wbat I did not know. I found out. Drop ping bis head between his legs, his heels de scribed a parabolic curve, of a diabolic carve, or some other infernal curve, in the air, and I got off' and sat on the ground. I got off over his head, and I did it quick. I’m not so - old but 1 can get off an animal of that kind 'as quick as a boy. Then 1 looked at the mule to see if he was hurt. He didn’t ap pear to be. Then I inquired, around to see kow I was. I reported an abrasion on the left hip, and a contusion on the lower end of niy back. Then 1 thought I would pro - nounce a left-banded blessing on that mule, and on his forefathers atid, foremotbera before him, and on his children after him. But I didn’t. I wondered if he would stand fire. If 1 had had a pistol, X would have put the muzzle to bis ear, and tried him.. Not that I was hostile toward him, but was afraid some body might take a ride on him someday and get hurt. But I had no pistol, so that benevolent and sanguinary idea was frustrated. Then I got up and shook the dust off my feet, ana brushed the sand off my trousers, as a testimony against that place. Then I led the mule carefully home, and stated my case to the livery man. But when I looked that he should offer to send for a doctor, or a Samaritan, to do me up in a rag, and pour olive oil and champagne on my bruiße, he only laughed. And his mau that he had to help him laid down on a bench and laughed—then he rolled on the bench and laughed —and I Btood bolding the mule —then I laughed. It was ridiculous. But I’ve learned a little wisdom. Next time I ride on horseback it will be a different kind of beast from a bogus jackass. From our Late Editions of Yeatorday From Washington.
