BArraiir's equestrian
.tiguro of. „„ Generai
Grant is now on exhibltionin the vrilidow of
Caldwell's jewelry, establishment. No. 903
Chestuut'street. It is Cast brenZeliyltobert
Wood & 'Co., and is an additional proof that
our sculptors have no neqd.to go tO*Alp !loyal
Foundry at Munich, or to Barbedienne's- at
Paris, for, the purpose of having Abair, nacslol9
cast with all the refinements Of iluciirt.
Nothing could be more solid and flawless than
": " san n nate piece;
full of undercutting ; while the cha.sing e and
coloring, thoroughly clean, workmanlike 'and
stylish, compare with imported bronzes
to the disadvantage of many of the
latter, ':The casting, 14 fadt, the
laboi of a firm employing skilled ar
tists of the first class, and just at present
desirous of making very work turneg out. an
advertiseinent. Thanks to their efforts, our
city is acquiring a most honorable specialty in
this noble and ponderous branch of the tine
arts.
Bailly's design is one of great merit: The
equestrian attitude of Grant shows his
thorbtigli horsemanship, his easy seat, to per
fection. The charger is magnificently modeled,
and though nor among the largest; may fairly
be considered one of the most skillful hippie
fighres., produced by an American artist. A
shameful effort has been made by some
.de
tractor in Weshington—where the model of
this group has been on exhibition for a worthy
purpose,—to impair the reputation for origi- -
nality of the present design. The figure of
Grant, it is said, is nothing but one off the
artist's old statues, with a new head; the
horse is a copy of a sketch by D'Orsay, now
used as a trade-mark on cigar-boxes. These
absurd strictures .ppeared editorially in the
Evening Star for April 13, when the model,
then new and ready for the fotirulry,.. was
exhibited in 'Washington, and were 'but
little to the credit of that paper. They
are ampletely inaccurate. Bailly, - it is
-true, , 'when the command ,of the
Army,of the potornac was first conferred upon
the General who bad distinguished . himself so
brilliantly in Virginia, and when the people
of the North looked upon the' brave young
commander with extreme approbation and
hope, did: prepaie 'an equestrian' likeneas of.
McClellan, which very soon became useless in,
his hands In . ..reasons umiecessary to 'Pirticu-.
larize. A copy was placed, among other
depots,
_in Gaits window in Washington.
upon the accession of. Grant, and wlieu a
worthYportrait of that commander anilPresi-.
dent was suddenly needed, Mr. Bailly, having
destroyed. his MeCl6lla, , - saw no harm in
Utilizing . the figure' of th lunse for• his new
nt y
design ; it had been a ' ost careful and very
learned piece of study, and lie was naturally
attached to it. The animal is -therefore in
many respects i a copy of the former one ;
its pe,sition is different from that of
D'Orsay's, and the accusation is supreznely
childish, since for an artist 'of Bailly's abili
ties it would be far harder and more annoy
ing work to
~guild up a finished figure from a
miniature trade-mark than to compose an ani
mal, as we know this to have been composed,
from nature, from the horses of Phidias, and,
from casts of Napoleon's charger taken after
death, and- in the possession of Mr. Bailly.
.The figure of Grant, for its part, does not re
semble the old one of McClellan either in
proportions, length of limbs, turn of extremi
ties, head, nor uniform, and the charge of
self-plagiarism falls to the ground on a mo
ment's comparison. The group; in fact, is
powerful and admirable. We hope it may yet
be expanded for the purpose 'qf decorating
the portico of the Treasury Department,-
1 with which intention it was originally de
vised, and for which employment there are
hosts of arguments.
cALnwELL's •WINDOW, in which this fine
moniunent stands,
~is decorated with some
foreign bronzes of recent importation, among
which is a mantel garniture in Roman bronze,
the centrepiece, over the clock, representing
CEdipus unveiling the Sphynx.l Inside, among
a large lot just uucased, will be found the
Horses of Al arly, various sizes, in Roman and
Florentine bronze; La Source, a lovely little
figure in a diaphanous garment, The Return,
two pastoral figures stepped out of Virgil's
Georgics, and copies of the strong antique
Lewis of Caracalla and Ajax, in various tints
of the metal. A perfect aviary of bronze birds,
including pheasants, partridge, water-fowl,
&c., cast feather by feather ' with sur
prising fineness of detail, occupies an
important department in 'their collec
tion. The geographical names, Roman,
Florentine, Pornpeian, applied to bronze re-_
fer to the tint in which they are finished, by
various processes of external oxidation; the
blackish hue affected in imitation or the Wolf,
Boy and Thorn, and other old bronzes of the
Capitol, is known as Roman; the deep cop
pery color resembling that of the Renaissance
fountain groups at Florence, takes its name
from that capital ; ; and close imitations are
made of the tarious tints of rust which have
gilded with factitious value the exhumed
bronzes of European museums.. The surface
of every casting in this material is necessa
rily so treated. ' The tint of raw bronze fresh
from the chasing-tool is no more fit for exhibi
tion than that of new brass. According to
tie process of finishing the style takes its
name, and thus, the term "imitation Roman,"
"imitation Florentine" bas in it nothing dero
gatory
—Here is the attempt of a. lover to secure a
kiss which was promised if he would prove
that a locomotive chews 'as well as smokes;
and this is a new motive for locomotives:
Giving his arm the proper yank,
To imitate an engine crank,
The motion forward first to show,
And the backward motion too;
Eager to press the promised prize,
He puckered his lips and twinkled his oyes,
To smack- er. "Qbservp the sound
As the crank comes round?!'
'He said : " It's choo—choo—choo—To go
ahead,
And choo—;choo—chew,' to-back-her.

to represent the Captain-General of Cuba,
who insisted upon searthing the bags contain
ing the private papers of the company-,that
is, the bag sent bythe agent of the conipany
in Havana to the company in New York.
The bag generally contains the manifest,
the bills of lading; &c., aii• welt as the
private correspondence relating to the
vessel. The demand to search this bag was
made upon the purser; 'that 'officer, however,
declined submitting .the letter-bag to the in
spection of theSe officials, and demanded to
see their. credentials. They had none to show.
35/hereupon, in spite of their uniform and offi

notified them that the first person who touched
the seals of the , bag would be shot dead by,
him. After an- excited parley the Pretended
officials took their leave. It appears that there
is no United States.vessel at Havana, tind the
Spaniards are having things pretty much their

Mark Twain on "The Ticket."
Mark Twain having been left in charge of
the Buffalo Erpress,.dxsmurses as follows in a
leading editorial upon the Republican nomi
nations, the political editor lxting out, of
town : .•
Under the proper head will be found the
telegram from the State Convention, announ
cing the nominations. AWthe political editor
of this paper, Mr. Lamed, is absent, attending
that Convention ; and as I do not know much
about politics, and am not sitting up nights to,
learn: and as I am new to the Atlantic sea
board and its political leaders, and conse
quently am not able to make oath that I am
perfectly posted concerning the' history, ser
vices, morals, politics and virtues of any el
these nominees except c 3 eorge-William Curtis,
I shall discreetly hold my peace.
I am satisfied that these nominations 'are
all right and sound, and that they aro the
only ones that can bring pence to our ,dis
tracted country (the only political . phrase I
amperfectly familiar - with and competent
to hurl at the public with fearless confidence
—the other tditor is full of them),.but being
in erelV satisfied isn't enough. I always like to
know before I shout. But I. go for Mr. Curtis
with all my strength! Being certain of him,
I hereby shout all I know. But the others
may be a split ticket, or a scratched ticket; or
whatever you call it. "
I will let it alone-for the present It will
keep. The other young man will
.be back to
morrow, and he will shout for it, split or no
split—rest assured of , that., He will prance
into this political ring with'his tomahawk and
Lis wax-whoop;and then you will hear , a; crash
and see the scalps fly.' He has' none of my (lit
. fidence. He . knows all about these nominees,
if he don't, he will let onto; in such a nat
ural way as to deceive the most
critical. He • knows : everything.o He
knews , more than ; Webster's' 'Un
abridged and the American %Encyclopedia—
but whether he knows anything - about a•stib-'
ject or not, he is perfectly w lling to discuss it.
When ho.gets back he will 'ell. you all about
these CandidateS; as'iierenelY as if he had been
=Painted with them a hundred years—
though, speaking cenfidentially, I doubt if he
ever beard of any of them till to-day. I ant
right well satisfied it is' agood, sound, sensible
ticket, and a ticket to win—but wait, till he
