CESNOLA. ‘The Cyprus Antiquities in New York. “Where They Are, What They Are and Where They Will Be. ‘The Douglas Mansion Rented and Te Be Used asa Temporary Museum. ‘How General di Cesnola Managed to Raise a Corner of the Homeric Veil. Forty Oenturies Unmasked and Awaiting In- spection at the Oustom House, *Cesnola To Be Tendered a Reception at the Metropolitan Museum of Art Next Monday Night. ‘Sketch of His Life and Resume of the Collection. Napoleon L once electrified an army with the intelligence that from the summits ef yonder ‘Pyramids forty centuries looked down upon it. If ‘the knowledge that we are being contemplated by antiquity is enough to sting us into heroism there seed no longer be an excuse for se many of us re- maining commenplace. General di Cesnola, of ‘whom every ene who has a reverence for archo- logy has heard with admiration, arrived at this port only a few days ago, and in his company came the numberless Cyprian antiquities which he dis- entombed, and which, during the last few months have attracted such vast attention in London. Within a few weeks at most New York will have the opportunity of examining them to her heart’s content, and we think we are doing only justice to the advancing culture of our times to predict that not New York alone, but the entire United States, will appreciate ‘the value of the collection, and reach at least an ‘approximate estimate of the immense advantage ‘the shrewdness and practical common sense of General di Cesnola enabled us te wrest frem the British Museum and the envious archeologists across the water. The opportunity of inspecting “these antiquities was lately enjoyed in London by the writer of the present article, whe hastens to day before the reader an ampiification of notes and Memoranda made while the exhibition was under way, at 61 Great Russ-ll street, London. Before ‘beginning an enumeration, however, it will be mecessary to give some account of the discovery of these valuables and of the circumstances under which the discovery was made. GENERAL DI CESNOLA. Luigi Talma di Cesnola, whose name has so re- peatedly appeared during the past few months in every publication which pretended to foster the in- terests of arts and archeology, was bern in Turin, tn the year 1833, and is consequently about forty years of age. He was educated at the Turim Military Academy, and in 1848, when fifteen years of age, became a volunteer @gainst Austria, fought on the field of Novara, where the Sardinian army was cut to pieces, and was made second lieutenant on the fleld, Thenee he returned to the Turin Military Academy, and, in 1851, graduated second among 380 competitors. In 1853 he went to the Crimea and fought there with the French and English. In November, 1860, che came to this country, and, owing to « fortunate Juncture of circumstances, resolved to make the ‘United States his home. True to his military in- ‘stincts amd education, he became colonel of the Fourth New York Cavairy, took part in every bat- tle in which the Army of the Potomac shared; was ‘placed in command of a brigade of cavalry by Burn- ‘side and continued in this position until June 17, 1863, when he was taken pris- -oner and immured in Libby Prison. In his ter- «ible dungeon he remained for nearly one year, when he was exchanged for Colonel Brown, brother of the then Governor of Georgia. When the war closed, Cesnola, enjoying a brigadier generalship, ‘was made Consul to Cyprus by Lincoln, in April, 1865, His commission was on Mr. Lincoln's ‘table on the evening the President was assassi- mated, and subsequently received the signatnre of Johnson. General di Cesnola reached Cyprus in November of 1865, and has been discharging the ‘duties of the Consulate ever since. Independent of the interest of his archwological researches, we do not know that his position has been a particu- larly onviabie one. Cyprus is not exactly a para- dise. An epicure would starve there unless his ap- petite lay in the direction of butter and milk, and the sybarite would find himself longing for the fleshpots of the Maison Dorée. The lave Mr. Seward ‘wae not entirely ignorant of this fact, for on his @ecent visit to Cyprus he was heard to say that Ces- mola would be almost justified in sueing him for seven years’ false imprisonment. FIRST DISCOVERIES. Physical courage and prowess were not the only qualities necessary to success in General di Ces- nola’s Crpras excavations.

Mr. Lang, of the British Embassy, and de Vogts, the jamous antiquary, of the Fren: Embassy, haa already made some trifling excava- tions, but both missed the polnt—the position of which Cesnola calculated so fortunately. Vogié ‘was, we believe, the first to dig at Golgos for re- mains. Lng odd near the spot which yielded these wonderfully interesting objects, he dug a trencn in & certain direction from some risin, 5 gly and afterwards on tts side. Bu ere his labors, aiter keeping a line, tarned at an obtuse angle to the leit, and abandoned the search with worthless results, Meanwhile Cesnela, hving at Larnaca, the place of ‘the consular residences at Cyprus, archeological pondered, and during his Suinmer sojourn at Dali (the diminution ef Idalinm) began digging a trench, and while doing so, on the 19th of April, 1866, struck against the stone of an antique tomb. ‘This discovery was the key to all future ones, In striking that tomb his spade hit against the Homeric age; and not the living toads which Dr. Schiiemann afirms he exiumed on the site of eee bas look with greater amazement Reon this gineteenth century world than that with ‘which the archolozists of Europe nave gazed upon ‘the wonders which the Cesnola shovel has brought to light. SUBSEQUENT DISCOVERIES.

PRACTICAL DETAILS. These antiquities are, to be arenrate, 10,300 in } cence of the most beautiful kind.

About eleven thousand dollars have yn spentin their packing and shipment alone, While in London they were to be seen at No, 61 Great Russell street, where they attracted the at- tention of all the most scientific men at that time in the metropolis. Mr. Gladstone visited them re- peatedly, and expressed openly his mortification at discovering they had not been and could not be secured for the British Museum. Juring the pres- ent month they have arrived at this port by five different ships of the National line, eo largest shipment was on board the Helvetia, which arrived eleven daysago. The last instalment was landed only @ few days since. The entire collection was comprised within 275 chests, some oi! which are nine feet iong. WHERE THE COLLECTION 18 TO EEN. The antiquities have not yet been unpacked in this country, and the description with which mach of this article is occupied is, as previously stated, elaborated from memoranda made during the op- tunity of personal inspection and criticism of- fered te the writer during a recent sojourn abroad. ‘The chests containing the valuables have not yet passed the Custom House, and the collection itself will not be viewed by tho public until the 1stof next May. Meanw! it will be interesting for the readers of the HERALD to learn that yester- day afternoon a contract was concluded by which the magnificent Dougias mansion on Fourteenth street, nearly opposite Fechter’s Lyceum, has been leased by Mr. John Taylor Johnston, the purchaser of the collection, for & period of not less than five nor more than ten years. The proprietor of the mansion reserves the right to remain there for the next three months, so that there is little chance of the Cypriote exhumation being exhibited until many-moodea April shall have d away and Spring addresses herself to the more reliable en- joyments of May. ‘the Dougias mansion, which Ossesses all the requisite space and dignity, will Be occupied by the collection, at any rate, until the Central Park Museum is ready. Mr. Russel Sturgis and Mr. West will forthwith make the necessar; alterations and repairs, and probably the ipagal I- cent en house attached to the mansion will be transformed into a gallery for the reception of the statues and kindred relics. In recognition of Gen- eral di Cesnola’s inestimable services the Metro- politan Museum of Art has tendered him a formal reception for next Monday evening, when a very interesting celebration may be expected. THE ANTIQUITIES THEMSELVES. But our readers, fatigued, perhspe, with so lon: @ preamble, will be anxious te learn something of the nature of the antiquities themselves. In the first place, nearly all the sculptures hitherte found im Cyprus are executed in that calcareous stone the use of which for purposes of art cam be traced in several ef the Phosnician settlements on the Mediterranean. The Cypriam sculptures consist, for the most part, of isolated figures, varying from celossal size to small statuettes. The er res had stood on pedestals in rows, but neither at Gol- gos mer at Dall was there any indication that sculpture was used as the decoration of architec- ture. Judging from the character of the heads most of the statues are probably portraits dedi- cated to royal or sacerdetal personages. The re- mainder represent deities, among which may be recognized the type. of Herakies as he appears in arehaic Greek and Etruscan art. Cesnola believes that the Golgos temple was dedicated to Aphro- dite, and enyd curious female and androgynous figures found there and at Dali are probably either local varieties of her type or connected with her worship. Some of these statues date as far back as eighteen hundred years before Christ. Many of them are thought by connoisseurs to be specimens of pseudo-Hellenic art, chiefly valuable for the por- traits included among them. A large class seem to be mechanical reproductions of more ancient SP rg executed with conventional mannerism. ‘The figures in this style, which may be termed the feratic, ofler various new types and curious de- tails incostume, and are generally so small as to be easily portable. A few statues and heads not included in these two classes are truly archato, being unquestionably more ancient than any of the others. An Egyptian influence is traceable here, and a certain afiinity with the earliest Greek art 1s to be detected in the remaining specimens of the arehaic family. some of the peculiarities in these sculptures—as, for instance, the formality of the hair and head—have an Assyrian touch; but, every exception being made, the sculptures as a wnole point to a local style which ought to be studied in connection with the native Cyprian Tace, Whose nationality outhved the tyranny of their Persian, Assyrian and rep se conquerors, ‘The facial characteristics of this Cyprian race are their jaws, a retreating foreaead, sharp and pro- jecting lips and chin, and a inted nose. In mmany of these statues the face is rendered almost bizarre with @ peculiar smile, and the limbs are always partially clothed. The medeliing is rude and uncertain and lacks that proportion which the Hellenic artist is seldom deficient in. Very often we come across the emblem of the dove, and there is not a headdress or a weapon; not a wreath or & bandeau, not a vow er a quiver, not a lion's skin, an aprou or a girdle Se gape in the archwologist might net write an terest chapter. A large number of the figures are mu- tilated. There are little, rude statues of mounted warriors; hideous Astartes or Mylittas; rudi- mentary goddcsses in burned clay ; dozens of little popular images of obscure worship; toy preces- sions: lustral vases, carved or stam) Qh 6)~=s dark = mixture of mythologies; and solemn fragments of colossal gods ‘and nigh priests with set smiles and set curls of hairand beard. There are fictile vases, whose Phoenician origin is proved by the inscrip- tion on one of them; little terra-cottas, which look like the playthings of the pre-historic infant, and works in metal, of which the two most remarkable are the two silver bowls found at Cittum, embossed with figures in relief, and resembling certain silver bewis in che Vatican irom a tomb at Vervetri. In temple of Aphrodite, at Golgos, were found 1,000 statues. Several are colos: id heroic, and one-third are the size of life. re statues of Aphrodite, Hercules and Apollo. Those of the goddesses form @ pingular collection, representing vVarieus natienalitics, as Nana, the Chaldean Venaa; Ishtar, the Assyrian; Mylitta, the Babylonian; As- tarte, the Phoenician; the strange dess Ashto- reth, who beguiled Solomon; Aphrodite, the Greek, and Amathun the’ bearded Venus. The most remarkable figure in the Assyrian aggroupment is the colossus of Golgos, covered with helmet-shaped headgear. The work dates from the eighth Coro! B. C., and represents a high priest of Ishtar. The Phoenician Hercules is ol heroic size; wears as a headdress the scalp of a lion, in which the teeth have been left and run a8 am ornament across the forehead, The Hercules is full of muscular development, but devoid of dis- Unctive attribute, even action. 3 One of the first st tues discovered is that of a priest holding deves. re is also half a statue of another priest b a bough of olive other, falllength, with a hi of maize and a patera crowned with jonquils (a flower still commen in Uyprus) and laurel. There is a priest wearing an igyptian headdress—a sort of coif very common in works from the Nile, In this, as in some of the other figures, the etfect of a realistic tendency in the carver’s mind, associated with signs of a Nilotio influence, is obvious im the mode of marking the eyebrows. Still another priest has his beard and hair entwined with ornaments, with a Gorgon on his tunic, wearing a br: let which retains its simple Egyptian foi On his belt is the peculiarly Egyptian-winged globe. Mention ought also to be made of an Egyptian king, wearing the pschent or double crown and the double wureus of his sovereignty. There w a fractured group of an accouchement which is ex. ceedingly unique. Another interesting work is a slab, cut from the pedestal of the statue of Hercules, bs erp the hero driving the cattle ot Geryon. Many of the statues have been colored, and one represents Hercules on a pedestal asa divinity, the slaying of the dog Orthros being painted red in the background. MISCELLANEOUS ANTIQUITIES. This article might be prolonged to twice the lengta fer which the present number of tne HERALD will allow space, yet fail to give the reader any just idea of the enormous variety to be found ong the Cesnola collection. Among the miscel- neous antiquities from Idalium and Golgas are & large assemblage of statuettes of Venus, A rude and hideous moraci of uncouth clay contrasts with @ el figure which shows distinct evidence of the Purest Greek leve of beauty.

There are feeding bottles for infant, the necks of the bottles being removable, so that the vessels May be charged. Jn the neck is an aperture that may be so stopped by the pressure of a thumb as te stay the dow of the liquid. Bronze spear-heads, of vai forms and sizes, are numerous. Bowls of the most delicate iridized tints are encountered at every turn, and the saucers and patere are of reat ype The bottles range in size from wine ttles and jugs to unguentaries tories. The more careiully wrought p' in yellow, and of the other vases the most remarkable are those fitted with handle and _ iridized, The bronze miscel- lany imcludes statuette of Osiris. a hawk, Minerva, Pomona, bravelets, anklets, rings, hair pins, a scarf pin, mirrors, brooches, buckies, the strigil (lor cleansing.the skin in the bath), tweez- ers, piuions, an ink: id with the remains of the ink, spear heads and javelins.

Yesterday afternoon the first ‘directors’ meet- ing of the Samana Bay Company was held at the office of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, at 59 Wall street. A HERALD reporter was informed by @veracious young clerk that there was no such office in the building, and yet, inside of two hours, a meeting was held in the office of Mr. Stockwell—who is connected with the Pacific Mati Steamship Company—of the di- recters of the Samana Corporation. Hitherte the meetings have been called “stockholders’” meetings, but on tnis occasion the meeting re- solved itself into a “directors’” meeting. Mr. Stockwell presided at the meeting, and the subject of sending the steamer Tybee to Samana Bay to- day was discussed; but, owing to the short tire for preparation, it was deemed fitting that the ves- sel, which is nowlying at pier 4 North River, should wait a few days, until all her stores are ready. She has now on board @ number of wooden houses, hotels and factories, in morticed and prepared planking, all ready to be erected when the Tybee reaches this peninsula where so many “fortunes are to be made.” Mr. Wm. G. Fargo was yester- day formally elected as a director of the company, and 8. L. M. Barlow was declared elected associate counsel to the company with Barton L. Harrison. The meeting was adjourned until tetany aiter- noon at three o'clock, It is probable that the ‘Tybee, which is am old screw propeller, will not sail before Saturday at noon, unless much more haste is made in the preparations for departure. +++ MARRIAGES AND DEATHS.
