rings by Italian workmen. Such things are the fag-ends of statuary. His judgment, however, is clear and convincing in regard to the tinted Eves and Venuses of Gibson. Whatever may have been the ancient practice in this respect, Gibson's experiment proved a failure. Nobody likes those statues; and no other sculptor has since Gibson's experiment proved a failure. Nobody likes those statues; and no other sculptor has since followed Gibson's example. Hawthorne overestimates the Apollo Belvidere, as all the world did at that time; but his single remark concerning Canova is full of significance: In these precincts which Canova's genius was not quite of a character to render sacred, though it certainly made them interesting, etc. He goes to the sGibson's example.

He recognizes the Laocoon for what it really is, the abstract type of a Greek tragedy. He notices what has since been proved by severe archaeologic

I witnessed, says Mr. McVoy, the passing away of a Louisianian of Gibson's Brigade, Fourth Louisiana, the other day. Seldom have I seen a stronger Christian faith, a firmer reliance on God, and a clearer assurance of salvation in a dying hour.

In Stovall's Georgia Brigade a meeting has been in progress eighteen days. 75 have joined the Church, and as many are converted. Gibson's Louisiana Brigade has neither chaplain nor missionary, but ministers from other commands have commenced a protracted meeting which promises great good. 40 have professed faith and asked for Church membership within the last twelve days.

by Gen. Hood, held that city against the heavy battalions of Gen. Sherman. The fights along the lines were frequent and deadly, but the religious enthusiasm of the soldiers was undiminished. They are not afraid of death, writes a devoted chaplain, A. D. McVoy, and are ready to die when God calls them. Among those brought in wounded from the front lines there were many Christians whose deaths were morally grand. I witnessed, says Mr. McVoy, the passing away of a Louisianian of Gibson's brigade, 4th La., the other day. Seldom have I seen a stronger Christian faith, a firmer reliance on God, and a clearer assurance of salvation in a dying hour. He was cruelly lacerated by a piece of shell that had ploughed deeply across his right side, and his sufferings were intense and unremitted. Still his mind was fixed upon God. Chaplain, said he to me, I am dying. I have done my duty. I wish I could be spared to see victory secured to my brave comrades, but it is the will of God
