He was quite feeble, a widower, livea alone, and had teen dead a week when his body was discovered. There was no food in the house, nor anything to prepare food from, and the con- clusion is irresistible that the oldman died ot starvation. He owned a farm of 100 acres of goed land. Three weeks he went to Roth- rock’s mill, near by, and askea to purchase some flouron a short credit, but was denied; then the old man returned home to die of starva- tion. He was a miser, and had a good deal of money hid away. AN ENGLISH ImposTER of the gentler ite has been unmasked at Chelmsford, after iz petted and fed by the benevolent ainoe 1a under the impression that she was so ill of paralysis that she could not leave her bed with- out help. During all this time she has sub- sisted on the charity of the townsfolk, and fre- quently the prayers of the church have been requested in her behaif. But all this time, too, When no one was looking on, or likely to enter her dwelling, the “paralytic? woman could deftly leap out of bed, dress herself swiftly, cook a substantial meal, and eat it with a relish. At last, after a quarter of a century of deception, she ‘has been found out. Some pry- ing neighbors invaded her privacy at times when they were not expected, and found her not only out of bed and dressed, but making a hearty meal. An OLD HERMIT MURDERED.—A telegram from Milan, Ind., Feb. 25, says:—Philip Boltz, an old man of 60 years, yesterday was found murdered in his hut, four miles from this place, where he had lived as a hermit for the last 35 years, hav- ing the reputation of being a miser. His body was found lying on the with the back of the head crushed in, and aclub,the weapon used, ly- ing near. Suspicion was attached to Wm.

The subject is ideal, and a conception natural to an American reared in the devotional atmosphere of New England, where Bible history is icarned before aby other. The statue repreconts a young Jewish woman with long tre-ses of braided hair that are wound about her head. A heavy veil is on the head and Ss down to the waist be- hind, while the dress falls in ample folds. The neck and arms are adorned with jewels of the pertod. The thin hands are clasped before her, and the face has a sad and patient expression as of one who is weary of wand@ring all her life in the desert. — The exbibition of water colors by the mem- bers of the American Water Color Society, now open in the Academy of Design in New York, is ‘said to be the 1: t_of the kind ever made in any country in the world. The catalogue com- prices 765 numbers in all, 635 of which are water color drawings, and’ 130 in black and white. Among so many pictures, and where 80 large @ number of artists are represented, m :ny of the works must nezessarily be unimportant mm character and some of them indifferent in point of mer i Dut there are some very superior examples exhibit-d, and on the whole the standard of average is pretty high. Both in ex- tent and quality, this display illustrates in a striking way the growth of interest in water colors in this country. A few years ago they were hardly known here; few artists gave any attention to that branch of ari, and those wuo did found little encouragement ‘in their efforts. Now the best talent we have dees not hesitate to seek expression in that form, and the results command about as high prices as oll paintings of the same size and from the same easels would bring. — In some respects the endowment of $60,000 made by Mr. Joseph E. Temple to the Pennsyl- vanla Academy of Ran Arts this week is one of the most important useful gifts ever beat to the people of Panedetphis For one thing, secures to them one free exhibition ay of its works of art every week,—a privilege they have not hei etofore enJoyed,—and at thee end of three years there are to De two tree days each woek. it aiso provides that one or two medals shall be given each year, either to students of the acade mny or to any American exhibitors, as the direc- tors shall decide, the medals to cost not le: than $100 each. ‘The trust further requires that on’ half the income shall be set apart each yeac for the purchase of the works of American a’- Usts exhibited at the academy, the other halt go'ng to pay the expenses of the institution. ‘fhe people of Pbtladelpbia and vicinity should man gs to work aud offer up prayers that they more fortunate with their good fortune bv some other communities have been, and that no person may be found in their mid:t who has both the crore and the disposition to defeat in any way the praiseworthy purpose of their unselfish Bc benefactor. — After nearly eight years labor spent upon it, the colossal “Lion of Belfort,” designed and executed as a symbol of the courageous resist- ance made at Belfort at the time when Paris was beste; has at last been relieved of all the scaffoldings and boardings that have hitherto hidden it from view. It now stands out with very fine effect against the front of the rock on which the chateau or fortress that overlooks the town is built. It is hewn out of immense blocks of stone of reddish color, and produces an overpowering impression of gigantic size and strength. As the work-is the Creation of M. Bartholdi, the eminent French sculptor,—who, it will be remembered, is the artist of the ©>los- sal figure of “Liberty Enlightening the World,” to be erected in New York ‘bor,—it is doubt- less one of very considerable artistic merit; but at the same time it can hardly fail to suffer somewhat an public: estimation from the feeling that, fine as it may be, itis a copy of thethought if not in fact and form of the justly celebrated Lion at a tos a ent sulpor = ide: ned by Thorwaldsen, e great soalptor of the aoa and which is considered r- sons the finest thing of the Tad or ceoute in modern times. — At the time of the Hunt picture sale in Bos- ton we expressed the opinion that the high prices obtained were doubtless largely due t> me factitious circumstances attending it, and 0 asort of craze existing for the moment to ae something irom his pencil, inde] its artistic or commercial value. T! fully confirmed by some of the facts that have since come to light. Several of the sketches which brought very considerable sums were mere meraoranda in cl —hasty drawings, made, not with a view to finished pictures, but to preserve in recollection certain effects of light or and of no value ‘cio except as a ate ion or reminder to the artist himself.
