A model in solid silver of Bartholdi's great statue of " Liberty Enlightening the World," presented to the city of New York, and which is to be erected in New York harbor, has been presented to the city of Paris by ex-united states Minister Morton and other Americans. The model is 30 feet high, and will stand on the Place des Etata Unis. Ezra Cooper, a banker of: Union City, Erie conntv.

FOREIGN GOSSIP. The courts of France, It Is snld. consider it a libol to overestimate a lady's age. Nine Australian telegraph oper ators are said to have become lumitics from overwork during the past tliirteou months. A Nuromberg chemist says that pusto made of starch, glycer.no and gynsum will reta'n its plastic ty and adhesiveness longer than any other co mont. The ruodilied Constitution of Hol land provides that the crown shall pass to the Princess of tho House of Orange who is nearest related to the last King wkon there is no direct issue. At a recent mectingof tho support ers of the Homo for Lost and Starv ng Dogs in London It was stated that the number of dogs brought into the llfline during tho year ending tho 31st of De cember last had been no fewer than 14. 772, being e'ghty-iive in excess of tho preced ng twelvemonth. In the Tower of London are twenty-one specimens of shields, with a pis tol attachment in tho center, the weap on being a breech-londcr, and slightly projecting, so that it would hardly be noticed by an enemy until it was dis charged. All theso shio'.ds wore car ried in former t mcs as "concealed weapons." Two Frenchmen, tho brothers Forre, have invented a new k nd of harp, made entirely of wood. Instead of str ngs. tho inventors use strips of American fir. The sound Is produced, as in the ordinary harp, by tho eon tact of the fingers, but the player wears leather glovescovered with rosin. The tone of the instrument is sa d to bo one of remarkable purity.' The enormous wealth of the Or leans Princes Is chiefly derived from Louis Ph lippe's mother, who, inconse quence of tho death of her brother, the Prince do Lamballe, became sole heir ess of her father, the Duke of Pen thievre, the richest subjoct of France. The Duke died in 1793. His daughter had two days beforo his death been di vorced from her worthless husband, who was thus debarred from touching her property. Kossuth, while still alive, enjoys the satisfaction of knowing what the world's opinion of him will be after death, lie has, it is asserted, cut out all the obituary notices that have reached him, and they till half a dozen scrap-books, hundreds of newspapers having been sent him from different countries as soon as it was known that tho report of his death was untrue. Tweuty-five Germans who haveeu tered the Chinese service were required to take Chineso names. One of them, who was formerly captain of a cor vette, is now called Wang-Li-Triang, which, when turned into English, means Mr. High Wall. Ho has just been pro moted to the rank of Admiral,, and commands the Chao Yung. Another German officer is now named Lin-Pao, or Mr. Six Cannons. Shop signs in London wore former ly not affixed to houses, but were placed on posts or hung thereon with hinges. So largely did these increase at one time that they absolutely obstructed the free circulation of air, and were supposed to be among the causes of the frequent epidemical disorders of Lon don. They also naturally aided the spread of conflagrations, and on these grounds were afterward forbidden to be displayed - THE GLACIERS OF ALASKA. Forty Ml'ra Across the Mountains by th Ic. When the Davidson glacier takes its last turn in its course and pushes out through a grand gateway in the mountains, it spreads out in fan shape and sweeps down in a long graceful slope to its terminal moraine. The moraine has been built up from the water by the deposit of rocks, peb bles and sand, ground up and ear red down from the mountains by the glacier, until a long strip of dry land formed in front of the melting ice. The moraine before the Davidson gla cier was made so long ago that a dense forest of ancient and lofty pines has stretched like a hedge across the three miles of the gluc er s front. Forty miles across the mountains by the ice', or around four or five times that distance by water to the other side of the mountainous peninsula is the famous Glacier Hay, the great natural show place of Alaska. Seven immense glaciers flow into the waters of the bay, coming down twenty, forty and even sixty miles from groat snow fields in the White Mountain and Fair weather Alps Range. One of the larg est of these ice rivers is named the Muir Glacier, in honor of Professor John Muir, of Californ'a, who was the first white man to tell the world of its existence no further back than 1879. lie went cautiously up an inlet of the bay in an Indian canoe; but large ocean steamers rde up within a quarter of a mile of tho ice front now eaeh summer, and are received with thunders and cannonades from the ice spirits at every visit. Sailing up that long inlet filled with bergs and floating ico, one sees a broad gray river of ice pouring down a great valley between two mountain ranges, with tributary streams of ice joining it from every gap and delile. and from around every jutting point The froen flood, with its tossed and broken waves, stretches ten miles across from mountain wall to mountain wall: and the long tongue of ice running down to the inlet presents a water washed, crvstaiine cliff three miles long, and from two to four hundred feet in height. Slowly creeping down the valley, and thrusting itself into the water, the ice is honey combed by the washing of tides and huee pieces of the front, and avalanches of ice are sliding down into the water with a con tinuous crash and roar at low tide, The ppray and waves dash far up the glittering Iront alter one 01 mese great ice slides, and there Is a magnificent play of prismatic colors on the fretted and fantastic ice wall when the sun light falls full on the western front. The largest glaciers of Switzerland could be put away In a corner of the Muir Glacier and lost; and except on the coast of Greenland it is lu'med that thero Is nothing hat surpasses this and other ater front ng glaciers of Southern Alaska. A great river boils up from under tho middle of tho glacier v. hero x long cape or point of lea runs out into the water, and on either side of the 'lacier streams emorgo from the sides 'f the leo and courso over the long sides or lateral moraines to the Inlet. The river on the north stdo is the larger, and by a long climb over stones and bowlder and along crumbling banks the dark grotto In tho glacier is reached from which the muddy river rushes to tho sunl'ght after its long course in tho heart ot tho glacier. Climbing the Icy hillside", the vastsea of billowy, broken ico lies beforo one, ico piled, tossed and ground into wild and fantastio array, narrow crevices ami vast gulfs opening at ono's feet and giving glimpsos fur down into a wonderland tilled with pale blue and Indigo shadows. With tho nightie days of summer tho surface ice melts rapidly and in ho sunshine every inch is sparkling and glistening with the trickl ing d rops. Kxchti nje. ALBERT EDWARD. Ilia Trine of Wnlei m ma K.ilemporane oui Kpvech-Mitker. Ihero are very few men in England who can make as good a spcoch as the Prince of Wales. His voice Is singu larly far-reaching, clear, pleasant, and his delivery is simple and diguilied. Rut it must not be supposed that tho ease and fluency which now character ize his public discourses were attained without trouble, or that tho Prince is one of the ' mob of gentlemen who 'Kpeak' at ease." and havo very little to say worth listening to. At first, when ho had to address an nudienco and it fell to his lot to begin speech making whilst he was very young in deedhe spoke with some hesitation, and ho gave his audience the idea of one who would bo very glad when he could sit down; but by persistent prac tice, stimulated bvthe certainty that ho must look forward to constant calls upon him, and animated by a high sense of duty, the Prinoe overcame tho difficul ties which beset most young orators, aggravated in his case by the conscious ness that every word ho uttered would bo eagerly weighed and recorded. He has no piired a command of language and a felicity of oppression which commend his matter to tho most critical, whilst it is nt the same time judicious in substanco and much to the point. No one can mako a better caso for a charitable institut'on than the Prince, and his appeals to the pockets of his hearers when ho Is prosiding nt a dinner to promote the work of some bencflcient ussociat'on, or to fur ther some useful and meritorious en terprise, are so successful that it is considered tho fortune of an even ing, from a financial point of view, is secured when the Prince of Wales has consented to take the cha r. On occa sions of national importance and inter est such as the opening of public institu tions, the Prince's speeches, carefully prepared and excellently pronounced, are models of what such" work should be, setting forth the objects in view, the history of the movement, and tho claims it has to support or approval, in well-chosen and effective words. The Prince has had practice enough cer tainly, for since his marriage ho has been associated with every movement In the kingdom, and has been called upon to open exhibitions, bridges, and build ings, parks and museums 'inaugurat j" statues, lay foundation-stones, preside at commissions and banquets year after year, and ha answered to tho call with unflagging ' spirit, cheerfulness, and effect. William Howard Itussell, in Uarpcr'M Magazine. HOIHOW. AChlnenc City With Novel Smells Rivaling the Kar-Famed gmellf of Cologne. Holhow is not an attractive town. Tho streets of tho suburb outside the wall are even narrower than those of ordinary small towns In China, much dirtier, and thevisitor, who has already some knowledge of China, detect a few var'etics of bad smell that impress hnn with the idea of absolute novelty. Tho Inhabitants show the mixed type of Fokien and Kwang-tung. with such indigenous elements as liave, during many thousand of years, been finding their way hero from tho mainland of tho peninsula of Father Ind a, or the island that lio to the southward of it. They are well-disposed and far less cu lious than the Chinese of mainland cit ies. The shops contain such Chinese goods as are suited to a population of this class, with odds and ends of Euro pean and American notions which have within thirty years found their way to tho most retired villages in the interior of As a. The markets make a liberal display of fish and pork, which is con s'dcred the diet in China, and, what can not be seen else where, a kind of water-snake (for sale at the fish-stalls), which is esteemed a delicacy by the Hiiiimne-e. Tho dress is with some variat'ons, that of vhe Kwang-tung provinces. The language hoard in the street is so dif ferent from that of the mainland as to be hardly intelligible to a native of Canton. The houses nra of lava-stone, or brick, one story in height, and though swarming with p'gs, dogs, and vermin, are perniamcnt and comforta ble in a climate that is always cool and sometime cold in winter. The resi dences of the merchants and officials are spacious. The guilds have large halls, or detached bu ldings, conspicuous by their Of nose ornaments in front, their two lofty poles bearing huge baskets, and a stage where theatrical represen tations are occasionally given. The wall of the old town is not crenelated. The streets within it are broader and cleaner and the shops larger and better stocked. The foreigners connected with the customs and consulates are comfortably domesticated in Chinese houses, no European residences having been built during the eight years since Ho'how became an open port.

There is believed to be danger to horses in the public drinking troughs. Glanders are often communicated in this way. A stand pipe and a bucket is the safest and best arrangement for watering animals in cities. It is more comfortable for the horse, the water is fresher, and more palatable, und there Is far less danger of its being contami nated with dust, dirt and tho germ of disease. llonton Herald.
