STATUARY. Of the many works in marble, there are none worthy of a higher rank than a statuette of Daniel Webster, by Mr. Ball, of Boston. This excellent work of art is displayed among the Parian statuary of Mr. Minton, in the English department, who is to execute, in Parian marble or plaster Paris, any copies of it which may be ordered. This statuette is, no doubt, the most perfect likeness of the great orator his face is executed with such exactness that from it one can learn as well the appearance of the great departed, as if the living, breathing Webster stood before him. The statuette is about two feet and a half high, representing Webster in full length, stand- ing by a pedestal, over which is thrown his mantle, beauty of execution. |t is in the Greek style, and is six feet six by three fee six. On the left side of the | piece Minerva is seen jointing with her right hand to a rock, on which tie« word “constitution” is in- scribed in golden Jet'er-, while with her left hand she plants the flag +! lilerty in the fertile soil. At the base of the rock are the sword, helmet, and other emblems of war, over which lies the palm branch, the emblem of poxce The faithful owl of the goddess, indicative «i watebfulness, one of the | great attributes of true wi-:l un, is seated at her feet, | while on the sumoiit American eagle, protect The female figure :eai« America, who is int f te rock is perched the it with outspread wings. | another rock, representa | t of banding to Minerva | the helm of State, on wih is a miniature image | of the Capitol.

CURIOSITIES. Those in search of the carious will look with a | yreat deal of interest upon a unique and ingenions york in the upper story of the American depart | pent. This is the contribution of an engraver, who ‘yas written s0 finely upon silver and gold that with- ut microscopic powers the letters are scarcely per- ceptible. The Lord's Prayer, entire, is written upon the surface of a three cent p'ece, and alao upon a gold doliar—the one in old English and the other in italics. Every letter can be perceived with an eye-glass, as | perfect and as artistically written as the finest ehasing upon the richest jewelry. The visusl organs of the engraver of this, we should think were superhu- man, to have guided his band with such apparent preci- sion over such delicate lines. To read the Lord’s Prayer ‘pon a gold dollar is no ordinary feat ; and any one who does this, will have an interesting fact to hand | down to his children’s chi dren.

PORCELAIN AND PARIAN WARE. We have already alluded at some length to the different specimens of Parian and porcelain ware on exhibition at the Crystal Palace ; but as yet we have ‘described none of the works of these materials which are viewed with more interest than a magnificent service of plate known as ‘Victoria Dessert Service.” This service is shown in a large special glass case, by Mr. Minturn and purports to be a true copy of a set which was displayed in the London jal Palace, and which was purchased for one thousand guineas Wy Queen Victoria, by whom it was presented to the Emperor of Austria. It is a very large service, consisting of fiftytwo pieces, of the most richly wrought and ornamented plate. It is made of a combination of Parian marble and porcelain ma- terials, unequalled for the manufacture of table ware. The centre piece is a flower vase, the base being porcelain, and the top supported by three Parian statuettes—Love, Peace and Abundance. The bowl at the top of the vase is ornamented with foxes, heads, and festoons of flowers. Besides this are fruit stands, bread baskets, cream bowls, salt cups, and every other piece belonging to such a service, all executed with elegance and skill. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD.

The reorganization of | the party on its avcient platform, was followed by au exemphficativn of more thay its ancient vigor aad power. It placed in the Presideotial chair its nomi- | nee, Franklin Pierce by the votes of twenty-seven | of the thirty-one Stites of the confederacy. The whig party was displaced from power in the several States, and in this State, the caudidate of the united democracy, Governor seymour, and his democratic | colleagues, were chosew by a majority of 25,000. Eighty-six democratic members were returned to the | Assembly. The Senate, however, which had been chosen one year before, under circumstances !e3s | auspicious to the democracy, was tied, aad subse- quently, in the Extra Session, by the absence of a dereconnite Senator, came under whig control, thus | neutralizing the numerical superiority of the demo- cracy in the popular branch, We refer to these an- tagonisms of the two Houses, because they explain, ! to some extent, the causes which led to the call of aa | extra session, aod the protracted term of iegisiation, ; The necessity which holds the legi-lative body to- | gether beyond the term of ove hundred days indi- cated in the Constitution, is always @ source of re | gret, and especially so when it leads to the multipli- | cation of laws, or to additional charge upon the | Treasury. | acts in which we have been engaged, have been of an im; ortance seldom equalled. We were advised by the Governor in his annual message that the finances of the State were not in a satisfactory condition. The legislation of our prede- cessors increased the charges upon the Treasury of the State, aud at the same time diminished its re- venues. We found that the appropriations of the | Legislature of 1552 exceeded the revenues of the General Fund about $200,000, and that we were under the necessity of providing, not only for the deficiency, but also fir the estimuted deficiencies ot the fi years end ic Sept mber 1853 and 1854. | The finances of the public works were also in an em- | barrassed condition. The law releasing certain rail- | | roads from the payment of tolls, not only deprived | our public works of a large amount of revenue trom that source, but it also rendered necessary a reduc- | tion of tolls upon property carried on our canals, At the commencement of the present year there was | due to contractors and for land damages, &c., nearly | $750,000, for a large portion of which amount, drafts | had been given by the Canal Commissioners, and | were upder protest for want of funds to pay them. The reputation of the State demanded that prompt measures should be adopted to pay these debts, aud the Assembly passed vills at the regular session of the Legislature, uot only to meet these pressing de- mands against tbe treasury, but also to provide for It is just, however, to say that the public | * the support of government. As these measures | were not acted upon by the Senate before the ad- | | journment of the regular sessiou, the Governor was | ‘compelled to convene the Legislature forthe purpose | of securing the passage of laws required to preserve | | the faith and credit of the Stite, aud essential to en- | | able the State officers to carry on the operations of | | government. The extra session has been orotracsed | until this late day, in consequence of the delay on | the part of the Senute to act upon these impor- | tant bills. The duty of providing means to pay the debts of | the State is so imperative that we have assented to | the Senate bill increasing tbe tax levied upon the | people for the support of government, although we | preferred tbe bills originuted in the Assembly, by which the railroads of the Stute were made to cou- | | tribute towards the payment of these debts incurred | for our canals, as the privileges conferred upon the | | corporations by the State have rendered them for- | migable competitors to ovr public works. The action of the two Houses in reterence to the public works has been of great public iuterest.and importance. The loss of a portion of the revenue of | the canals by improvident legislation and the accu- mulation of the charges upon their fund, had been | such as to threaten to absorb the surplus revenues | devoted to their enlargement, and unless their means | were reinforced by some extraordinary resource, | to bring that work to a stop. Many of your repre-entatives were reluctant to | adopt any measure which should destroy or material- | ly weaken the admirable financial policy of the | | constitution of 1846, but, after protracted consulta- | tion, they at last united with entire and cordial ap- | proval upon the folluwing constitutional amend- ment :— herolved, (fthe Senate coveur) That the following amendment be proposed to whe covastitution of this Stare, | aud referred to the Legisiatare to be choxeo at the next geveral el-cticn of Serators, aod be pubitxhed for three moths pi og ruon chotce. in purauacce of | the provisions of the first seciion of the thirteenth ar- | ticles of reio constitution, | qconetestes r section three of article seven ths follow- 1 :— | “After peying the said expenses of collection, superin- tendence nod revairs of the canals, and the sums es printed by te first ard seound sections of this artic! | there shall be approp:iated aud eet apart in each fi | year out of urplus revecues of the csuals as a siak | Ing fund, a rum rofficient to pay the inverest ay it falls due, and extingvish the p-tncipel wishin eighteen years of any loan mace uvder thie section; and if the said siok- ing fund sbail net ve sofiictent to redeem any part of the privcips! at the stpulatec times of payment or to pay any part of the intere-t of such loans as stipulated. the | means to satisfy any such deficiency shall be vrooured on the credit of the seid sinsing fuod After ¢ mplyiag «ich the foregoing provirious, there aball be paid auaually out of the sid; evemues into the treasury of the State two hua. | dred thousand dol'ars te defray the Decssnary +> peases of | goveromeat, The remaicder shall ie exch f-cal year be | @yplied to meet appropriations for the ente-gement and | competion of the canals meutioned in this section, uawl the said carale sboll be c»mpleted.

It | | provides for the submission of the subject of the con. | templated debt to the electors themselves, in their primary capacity. It will secure by a wise administration the certain completion of the canals, thus adding another pra :ti- cal achievement to the brilliant career of the demo- | | cracy in connection with the canats—who have com- | | menced and completed all our great public works—in | striking contrast with that of their political adversa- | | es, the whigs, who have never commenced, and | | never finished a canal, but have twice brought the | public works to a stop by their bad administration of | the finances and the credit of the State. | Among the acta inthe passage of which the un- dersigned united, and which became laws, was one | to repeal the law of 1852, by which the letting of | | contracta under the void nine million bill was recog- nized. The repeal was an act not only of obedience to the courts, which had by the highest decision de. | clared them void, but was made in anticipation of | the paseage of the constitutivnal amendment in re- | gard to the canals, which we bave sutimitted to you. | The Legislature have not only provided tor paying | the debts and preserving the credit of the State, but | have also paseed an act appropriating money to the | Erie Canu) Enlargement, and tor the prosecution of the unfiniebed werk upon the lateral cavals. The sum to be expended under this bill upon the Erie Canal Enlargement is $34,000, of which sin $170,- 000 was absolutely necessary to protect the work thereon and preserve the navigation the ensuing sea son; $100 000 is appropriated to fature work upon the Genesee Vailey caval, which sum economically expended, it is suppored will complete nearly haif the unfinished portion of that work; $75,000 14 also appropriated to the Black River canal. which will add over fifty miles to its longth; $50,000 is appro- priated to the Oswego can 20.000 to the Caynga and Seneca canal; $10,000 to the locks at Whitehall, on the Champlain oanal; and $5,000 to the Crooked Lake canal.

The approval of the principles, platform, and policy of the distinguished democrat at tue head of the nation was expressed in the strongest terms, and with com- manding unanimity. We are confident that the expression of our feeling reflects your sentiments, and that whatever canse may have divided the de- mocratic party heretofore on such subjects, none survive at this day, Acknowledging the imperfectness of our efforts (hampered by a Sevate in accidental whig majority) in oli th'ngs to carry out the will of the democracy, we respectfully submit that we have carefally avoided any course that would jeopard that union of the democracy that makes New York the reliance and the pride of the denocrati+ States of the Union. The consclidated front that New York presented to the sister States in the last great political contest, was potential in its promise of victory. Cherish that spirit of democratic fraternity, and watch with jea- lous eyes lest the example of disunion in the demo- cracy of other States, or the recollection of its exist- ence among you in other days, should be made use of insidiously to sow dissensions or distrust in your ranks. The prostration of the democratic party of New York, and thus of the State and national ad- m’nistrations, which enjoy your eonfidence, is hoped to be « flected through your division. Democratic ascendancy is the guarantee of govern- mental economy, and the great obstacle to those who pursue illégitimate paths to municipal, State and naticval treasuries—it is thas that a common rinciple moves those who combine to overthrow the fee ratic party. and we greatly misjudge your in- telligence and patriotism if these efforts are not re- buked by you with an unanimity and courage worthy of the brightest epochs in your political history.

[From the Albany Argus, July 28 } The Bogus adaress ‘The address which it was rumored had been sur- reptitiously got up at the close of the late session of the Legislature, and surreptitiously circulated for signatures, appears in the free soil organ of yester- day. We reserve the comments which it invites until to-morrow, Meanwhile, we would remark that this bogus affair purports to have been signed, among others, by a member of the Assembly who is now, and has been for many weeks, absent in Europe— we allude to Mr. Forsyth, of this city—and by others whose names we have the best reason to belive have been used, not only without their own consent, but in spite of their peremptory refusal to sign it. A more arrant imposture has scarcely ever ema- nated, even from the free soil mintin this city. Our friends elsewhere will be on their guard against it.

At the first board, to day, thore was s large amount of stock offered for sale, part of which found buyers at lower prices than those current at the close yesterday. The bears took in 8 good deal of cash stock, which helps to sustain prices. But for this there would, without docbt, have been another siampede, At the firet beard Canton Company declined 3 per cent, New Jersey Zinc 34, Nioaragus Tramsit 4 Cumberland Coal 3, Parker Vein 234, Norwich and Worcester 34, Phoenix Ocal §, Crystal Palece 3, Harlem 34 The coal stooke appeerto ke particularly aimed at by the bears, The stock market generally isin a bad way, and we seo no proepect of any improvement. The money market is not likely;to favor holders. The banks are placiag them. selves in a position to meet the mew system of reports, going into operation eoom, and we have no doubt there will bea curtailment in all the loading departments. The electicn of Mr. Nelson Robinson treasurer of the New York and Erie Railroad Company, bas had ao effect, one way or the other, on the meiket value of the stock. He represents s large body of stockholders, asd holds a large quantity of stock Ho stands at the head of the bull clique, and only sccepted office because no one else could be found. We have not the slightest expectation | thet he will introduce any reforma into the management of the company’s finances, or redace the amount of ex penditures one dollar. Nothing has, infact, been gained by the change. The Nicaragua Transit hes been heavy for severs! days past. Trouble is anticipated upon the retura of Sommodeore Vanderbilt It appears that when he agreed to put boats upon the route, the Transit Company contracted t» pay him twenty per cent of the gross re- esipts for the trapsit serosa Nicaragua. This payment wax regularly made to Mr. Vandorbilt up to the time he left in hia yacht for Europe. Sinoe, the company have refused to make parments to Vanderbilt’s agent, and there ia very little doubt bat that upon the Commodore's return, summary measures will be teken to collect his demand. This has been talked over in tho atrect, and the aveline in the stock msy be partiaily attributed to it. ‘The receipts at the office of the Arsistent Treasurer of this port, today swounted to $202,177 97; paymenta, 211, 576 98 —balance. $8,077,079 93. ‘The statements we made rome time since in conntetion with the McCullock Gold and Copper Company are daily corroberated by testimony from all quarters.
