LI BERT Y ENLIGHTENING THE WORLD. 
This colossal work, which is now being 
loaded on the French transport Iscre forship- 
nieut to this country, is the largest statue in 
the world. Its magnitude may be conceived 
from the fact, that 40 persons find standing- 
room within the head. A six foot man stand¬ 
ing on the level of the lips only reaches the 
eyebrows. While workmen were employed on 
the crown of her head, they seemed to be 
making a huge sugar-caldron, and they 
jumped with ease in aud out the tip of the 
nose. Fifteen people may sit round the flame 
of the torch, which elevation will be reached 
by a spiral staircase within the outstretched 
arm. 
The weight of this stupendous statue is 440,- 
000 pounds, of which 170,000 pounds are 
copper, and the remainder wrought-iron. It 
is expected to arrive in New York about the 
25th of May', where it will be erected on Bed- 
loe’s Island, this being the locatiou selected 
for it by Gen. W. T. Sherman, who was ap¬ 
pointed by the President to make the selection. 
When placed in position, it will loom up 305 
feet above tide-water, the bight of the statue 
being 151.2 feet, that of the pedestal 91 feet, 
and foundation 53.10 feet. 
This imposing statue, higher than the enorm¬ 
ous towers of the great Brooklyn Bridge or the 
steeple of Trinity Church, which is the loftiest 
in the City of New York—higher, in fact, than 
any of the colossal statues of antiquity—by its 
rare, artistic proportions, as well as by its 
stupendous dimensions, will add another to 
the Wonders of the World. A word should be 
said of its artistic merit. The pose, stride, and 
gesture, with its classic face, are pronounced 
perfect; the drapery is both massive and fine, 
and in some parts is as delicate and silky in 
effect as if wrought with a fine chisel on the 
smallest scale. 
The conception and execution of this great 
work are due to the French sculptor, M, Bar¬ 
tholdi, who has devoted eight years of his life 
and most of his fortune to its completion, 
and whose generous impulses, which must be 
on a scale commensurate with this noble 
work, prompted him to make such a gift to 
the United States. The committee in charge 
of the construction of the base and pedestal 
for tbe reception of this great work are in 
want of funds for its completion, aud have 
prepared a minature statuette, of which we 
show an accurate cut in Fig. 177, an exact 
counterpart of the original, six inches in 
hight, the figure being made of bronze, the 
pedestal of nickel silver, which they are now 
delivering to subscribers throughout tbe 
United States for the small sum of $1 each. 
The entire proceeds of t hese subscriptions will 
be used to complete tbe pedestal on which this 
great statue is to rest. Aside from its being 
a lasting souvenir of this colossal statue, it 
will ornament our homes and bear testimony 
that we lave contributed to the completion 
of one of the grandest works of modern times. 
All remittances should beaddessed to Richard 
Butler, Secretary American Committee of 
the Statue of Liberty, No, 53 Mercer Street, 
New York. The committee are also prepared 
to furnish a model, in same metals, 12 inches 
in hight, at $5 each, delivered. 
It is a cause of shatue to this country that 
its wealthy men have not promptly come for¬ 
ward with funds necessary to complete the 
pedestal lief ore the arrival of tbe statue, and 
we hope that now, the people at. large will 
feel it k a privilege to show [.their., sense of 
THE RURAL NEW-YORKER 
SMAY 9 
grateful friendliness for this magnificent gift 
on the part of the French people, by at once 
coming forward with the funds necessary to 
give the statue an appropriate resting place, 
and that such as can spare a dollar will send 
it as above.

GIVE THEM A CHANCE. 
If the thousands aud tens of thousands of 
weak and weary sufferers throughout the land, 
who, in spite of care and skill, are steadily 
drifting down-warils t could have the benefit 
of that singularly Vitalizing Treatment, now 
so widely dispensed by Drs Starkey &■ Palen, 
of 1109 Girurd St., Philadelphia, the help, 
and ease, and comfort it would bring to wast¬ 
ing bodies and depressed spirits would be bless¬ 
ings beyond price. If, reader, you have an 
invalid wife, or mother, or daughter or sister, 
or any one who is under your care or depen¬ 
dent upon you, and to whom life has become 
a burden through weakness and pain, consider 
seriously whether you are not bound, in both 
love and duty, to give this sufferer a chance 
of recovery, or, at least, the blessing of ease 
from pain. You are offered the amplest 
means of information in regard to this new 
Treatment. If you can examine testimony 
without prejudice, and can weigh evidence 
with judgment and discrimination, write to 
Drs. Btarkey & Paieu for such proofs in docu¬

to fairly examine and decide for yourself.
