DESCRIPTION OF THE SITE SELECTED FOR THE GREAT PHAROS—A BETTER ONE MIGHT HAVE BEEN SELECTED, BUT 17'S A GIFT-HORSE cask, “Gath” in the Cinetunstl Exgatrer. New York, Jane 22—The day of the eelebra- tion, or rather of the reception ot Barthold!’s great statue, took one of the iron steamboats, socalled, which male a fleet to Coney Island and Long Branch, and passed the pedestal of the statue. The pedestal rises above the small island of Bedloe’s some sixty or seventy feet, and presents a rather incongruous mass to the eye. Ihave my dontts whether the figure, when raised there, will meet the IMAGINATIVE IDEAS of the sculptor. He, according to his own ac- count, entered the bay of New York, which Is very different from any harbor in France, or, indeed, In Enrope, and was surprised to see what to him seemed a kind of inland sea with numerous islands, some of them of a moun- tainous form, often well wooded, and with con- tinuous towns and villas, forts’ and piers, ex- tended through and around this double inland sea, He was amazed, and I have heard the same expression from Frenchmen and other foreign- ers when they came up the bay of New York on steamers to myself or fellow-passengers. The water-ways of America often terminate in these huge ports and estuaries which give a strange mingling of natore and man, “The ports of France resemble our Pacific ocean roadsteads, and generally have to be constructed where some little stream enters the sea by digging and moulding, and when you get inside, even at Havre or Marseilles, your vessel bas to go into docks dug out of the ground. Perhaps the flnest of the harbors of France 1s Bordeaux, where a large river sea, and steam craft go up t p Delaware or the Mi ippi to the piers of city. Many ofour AMERICAN HARBORS HAVE No EQUAIS. Poston, Portland, Providence, New London, New York, Hampton Roads, San Francisco, all show these remarkable navigable and land- bound pools or channels, M. Bartholdi, with a Frenchman's instinct of art, and recollecting the great wonders of the antique world, con- ceived the idea of eee the harbor itself by erecting a great Pharos. He was far ahead of the artistic instinct of the United States, Here the practical dominates at all times, and ‘one reason why the money was not promptly raised for the lestal of the statue was a cer- tain feeling that the statue itself was a wild Frenchman's thought. Had the statue been designed for New York Island a local interest would have been attached to it which is to some extent lost in the short distance between Bedloe’s Island and New York Island. The dis- tance may be two miles from our battery. I have held, since the conception of this statue, that {t should have been built upon the batter: itself, at the termination of New York Islan where the multitude conid have gathered around it and appreciated its splendid propor- tions. But the bay of New York between the battery and Staten Island is about stx miles long, and to erecteven this great statue one- third of the way down the ‘bor will much diminish 1ts quality to the eye, and therefore tothe mind. ‘The Washington monument at the capital city loses much of iis power by being placed within the delta or gully of the city. There are heights around Washington of two hundred to three hundred feet, and had the Washington monument been put upon one of these it would have been visible foragreat many miles. But Barthold! grasped the first impassioned Idea of the monument when he saw the harbor. curred to him that at a very beautiful harbor should be seen the Pharos illustrative of liberty welcoming the races of the earth as they came Up the lower bay, passed through the Narrows, and debouched into the upper bay. As he alone projected the statue, It was no rson’s business in rticular to reason with him about the situation. He exhibited at our centennial celebration the forearm, hand and toreh of the statue, very nobly modeled, und this portion of the subject alone would have procured a public purchaser in New York. Every sculptor and student of art commended the the DELICIOUS MODELING of the hand and torch. But, reasoning from the plans of the people, artists in general doubted whetber such a plece of clear imagination as erecting this great human tower down the bay would give the effects the sculptor hoped. The American people are lamentably short in the antique imagination. Our most imaginative writer, Hawthorne, was more fanciful and met- aphysical than imaginative. He had nothing of Victor Hugo in him. The French imagination partakes of that of Virgil and Homer; the Latin Taces draw their being from the antique world, where jer puts upon a rocky island his giant cyclops, with one eye ranging over the seas, and Burling stones miles outward at approachers ‘nd victims. [venture tosay that nota thousand Americans in the hundred years of our republic have grasped in the spirit of Homer that huge conception. To us St belongs to the domain oftable, When the Statue of Liberty will be raised, is there is now no question it will be, it will be nearly feet above low tide water in the bay. This ts about three-fifths of the height ofthe Washington monument; it is the height of the largest average cathedrals of Europe. But those cathedral towers are a great mass, and they often stand upon plains where they exert their impression to a vast distance. This Pharos in the bay of New York, though it will be three hundred feet high, will not be more than twice the height of “the masts of many of our vessels, and the Ep landscape Is particularly bold and lofty,and the Orange rise to the height of one thousand feet, and Staten Island, whieh is only four miles away, has heights probably of five hundred feet. ‘The Litie island where the statue Is to be is a MERE SPT in the bay, though large enough to have been fortified as one of the defences of New York in the day before Rodman, Whitworth, and Krupp. I only repeat what you already know when I say the pedestal of this statue will be 82 feet square and about 90 feet high, or per- haps 140 feet above the usual tide. Then from ‘the top of the nero to the highest point of the statue, which is the toreh held out in the woman's band, is about 150 feet, some twenty feet higher than Trinity chu steeple, and nearly the same height ubove the towers of the Brooklyn bridge. But the Brooklyn bridge Is a mass of towers and network, quite comparable to the mone put into it—na: ly, some $18,000,000. Th cost of the pedestal of Bartholdi’s statue, and of the statue itself, will probably not be more than $500,000. Again, the island the sculptor has selected is not exactly in the eye of the eity of New York; it stands olf toward the Jer- sey shore, and when you go down the bay to Pass throb the Narrows from this elty. you leave the statue something like three-quarters of a mile to your left. [fall the shipping of New York wei o pass right under this Pharos it would have amore distinctive effect. Had it been put up on the little island where Fort Lafayette stands, right in the Narrows, every vessel passing in or out of New York’ would have goue beneath the legs of the Colussus of Rhodes.

Persistency and Luck—Each Has Its Share in the Suceess, ‘From the San Francisco Call Anold miner who followed the gold excite- ment in {ts devious wanderings in At California, Mexico, and British Columbia, re- lated to a Call reporter a few days ago several instances of lucky discoveries: “An old Dutchman brought the plodding method of his race to the work of gold digging in Australia. Allof his companions. had bold- ness and dash, but few had the stolfd persist. eucy in the face of bad luck that this Duteb- man possessed. He had been plodding along forseveral months digging atunnel Heavy dull clay was all about him. Not a promising sign beckoned him on, He seemed to get more settled in his determination to work the tunnel to the end the more unpromising it looked. He had been working on tn the face of discourage: ment for several months, One mornin; Le was making his way into his tunnel, and be- fore he had gone fourteen fect his heart sank within him. There in front of him was his tunnel caved! The path that he had laboriously dug into the hill was clogged with tons of earth. But the quality, of bis character asserted itself. Most men woald bave peas! oaths at his ill luck, and packed up their kit and left, The miner moved more slowly than before, but he started to work ain in the same tunnel. He crawled into his tunnel, and with his pick and shoyel set to clearing away the hill of earth that blocked his th. Hehad not struck a dozen blows with fis pick before the sharp iron int struck something solid. Mechanically he bent for- ward and cleared away the earth, and there be- fore him was a big nugget, aS nuggets go, welghing fourteen ounces. He crept out of the tunnel, bringing his precious nugget with him, and when he got into the fresh air and hear the birds singing, he sat down and wept. No one begrudged the Dutchman his luck. “A nuggety country that has been only par- tially worked is ee as good a field as Net soil,” continued the miner. “The spots that have not been touched may be the very nests of the precious metal. It is dangerous to leave a single foot of ground unworked. The for- tune 6fa lifetime might thus be passed by and lost forever, There are many instances of Just such cases. There wasa poor, shiftless fellow, with a wife fu rags and children in squalor, The whole tamily used to go, Into the diggings together and shift about till they had got enough to buy something to cat. They kept sinking lower a a lower, But one day say straggled into the diggings, not having enet enough to push on abreast of the workers. They fell to picking alittle pillar that had been left standing in tho midst of the diggings, all about it having been worked. I do not think it could have been more than three. feet across, certainly not more than six. It was a spot that had been neglected as the diggers pushed their drifts ahend. The squalid :amily began work on this solitary pil- lar,all they hoped was tor a few grains to feed thom for the day. As the man continued list- lessly, the sunhight-was caught up by a speck in the pillar that glistened and flashed. The eyes of the poor fellow saw it; he thought his work forthe day wasdone. He-knelt down to clean away the dirt from the bright spot. As he did so the shining metal grew to larger pro- portions. Immediately the whole family was around It in eager haste to uncover it. The farther they cleared the soil away about it the further it sceme recede, After working two hours with growing astonishment they saw the full outline of their prize—one of the largest Jumps of gold ever found, That was the luck- le: ‘hind ever made, ‘The Mount Moliagul nugget was found ina most peculiar place,” resumed the miner, “There was an unusually rich diggings in the vicinity of Mount Moliagul, Victoria, that had made ‘@ hundred men tel. It ‘had been thoroughiy worked in every direction, and It was thought that every grain of gold’in the | neighborhood had been collec! ‘The crowd than once made the camp a busy scene of Ufe dissolved as quickly as It had collected, leaving the shantles to the mmercy of the weather, whici soon made them a picturesque rum. ‘Oi to- ward the cast there was a solitary tree stump standing on a pillar of earth that had not been cutaway by the gold hunters because of the old roots of the tree that spread through the soil. It was not more than ten feet in ciream- ference that had been left by the diggers. One day two miners came to the deserted camp, and stopped. over night on the site of the old camper stamp struck one of them as a singular .Jeature nef)the old diz- gings, and being. any i aA » he knew that ‘one part of a y ‘coutry was as likely to hide the precious metal as another. It occurred to him that the ground under the stump was. as likely to prove rich as the pos- tions of the neighboring fleld that had yielded so much gold. He resolved to work the little mound the next day. His companion, however, was anxiots to be off to the latest’ diggings, where the excitement was at the highest pitch. But the first miner who had resolved to ex: plore the solitary pateh of the deserted dig- cings, persuaded his partner, aud together they “et to work on the oll stump, , They began by ‘undermining one sice of the stump, bat be- fore they had dug in three feet they dixcovered an enormous nugget, dne of the most valuable j that had been found in the whole diggings, Tuey continued their labors and uprooted the Stump, butdid not find another grain of gold.” oe Street Car Politeness.
