The building may be rebuilt, even with improvement; another library, as extensive and useful may be pur- chased; but the Statute is lost forever, for CANovA is dead! He who has had no equal in his art since the days of Phidias; or since the Venus de Medci and the Apollo Bevi- dere were chiseled by unknown hands, If the individual whose reckless and unpardona- ble carelessness occasioned this calamity had been desirous of emulatingthe Ephesian Eros fatus, and had purposely applied the torch, we would have respected him as much as we do.

 It is highly probable that this occurrence will cause the question of removing the seat of government to be agitated. But consider ing the amount of money which the state has invested at Raleigh, it is not probable that an effort of that nature, if made, would be suc- cessful.
