The price paid, we hear, is #4000. The subject is Miriam, the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, who went out with all the | women, with timbrels and with dances, to rejoice over the triumphant passage of the Kel | sea by the Israelites. Her face, of singular | beauty, is uplifted and radiant with joy; while her form of exquisite proportions is indie: all its gracefal outlines beneath the pliant folds of the tunic and scarf that make her costume The backward flow of the drapery, from wind and from her advancing movement in the dance, serves, also, to bring out tally the lithe, | gracefully tapering limbs. The delicate grace and beauty of the figure is mu 1 by the quality of the marble used, which is a piece of rare purity. It is a matter for real regret that so meritori- ous a work should leave our city; but, since it must be s0, it is satisfactory to know that it is to fall into appreciative hands. Miss Ream has now by her Miriam, Sappho, Spirit of the Car- nival, America, Lincoln, Farragut, &:., shown high creative genius as well as capa truthful literal delineation, and by hard, con- scientious labor has won her way over envy and detraction to an assured position in the upper walks of her profession, Political Notes. ine Virgil Loving, colored, announces himself for Congress in the 3d district of Kectucky, ‘The republicans will make no Congressional nominations in the 3d and 4th Maryland dis- tricts this year. ‘ The democrats and liberais of the 10th district of Massachusetts have nominated D.

Co-oPERaTivEassoctaTions seem to flourish better in Scotland than any other country, while in Ireland they are extremely unpopular.
