make it real. One of Mr.. Powers busts
| 1--WE believe of Mr.. Preston, of South
Carolina was recently, and, it may be, is
now to be seen at the rooms OF young
Bracket, in the new granite building Oh
The corner of Chambers street and Broad
way.


| The mention Of Mr.. Bracket reminds
us Of an intention we have some time en-
tertalned, to commend his abilities to the
notice Of the public. He has extraoEdi-
fnary merit -and of this our citizens and
soiourners in New York may satisfy
themselves bya visit to his studio. We
believe thatt artist has established him
self permanently here.


Not so MIR. Cevenger, another Buck
eye from Ohio. This sculptor has been
| in this city forsome months past, but is to
remain only a few weaIls longer, before
departing tor Italy. He has recently
modelled ADJUST Of the late Samuel Ward,

employed uponone Of Chancellor Kent.

now; but our object in writing this ar
tclc has been accomplished, if we have
succeeded in showing, that there is a
single American sculptorwho can execute
what is worthy Of liberal and wealthy
patronage. There is nothing which SO
tends to expand the intellect and amelio-
rate the manners off nation, as due cul-
|tivation of the fine arts. There is some
thing in their pursuits and encourage
ment, SO apart from the ordinary and
dehasing cares Of existence SO superior
TO business, and politics, and the frivolous
enjoYments of society SO much netter
than novel reading aud travelling, like
Lord Lowell in the ballad, strange coun-
trees for to see"-that men for their own
sakes, and for the sakes Of their children,
|if incapable Of beng inspired by patrio-
tic motives, should give pittance oftheir


wealth, a few dollars Of their incomes
and salaries, something fromthe fruits


Of their industry even, to promote the
Extension and improvement of these arts


and to relieve their professors from that


worst restraint upon intellectual exertion
