LANCASHIRE. 
A fplendid navamonument to the memory 
of the late Lord Nelfon, is about to be erected 
at.Liverpool, by public fubfcription. It is to 
be executed by Mr. George Bullock, fculptor, 
of that place, for 80001. in artific ial fione, 
(a compofition of different vitrified ibfances, ) 
which unites the beauty of marble with the 
durability of bronze. Myr. Bullock has pub- 
lithed the following defcription of the model, 
Mar- 
which. has been approved of by the commit-— 
tee :-——** In the ftatue of Lord Nelion, I have 
endeavoured to expreis that-culm and dignified 
compofere ror which he was fo pre-emine atly 
diftinguithed in the hour of danger ;—his ethg y 
is, therefore; plain and fimple; placed in a 
firm and decided attitude ; the union flag and 
anchor are introduced as ther di@inguifhing 
marks of his pro: ‘eflional rank, at the fame 
time pointing out the means by which his

fame and glory were obtained. The pedeftal 
on which the hero ftands, is encircled with 
a double coil-of Britith cable refting on the. 
plinth, and enriched by. the reprefentation of 
his four principal engagements, viz. St. Vin-. 
cent, the Nile, Copenhagen, and Trafalgar ; 
four figures of Vitory , whofe hands are united 
by. crowns of laurel, fufpendéed over each. 
battle, are the fupporters ef this column, re- 
prefenting an unbroken chain of {plendid vic-: 
tories. .The. cornice of the column is-com- 
pofed*of leaves of Britith oak. On the fub- 
plinth are feated four nautical figures; emble- 
matical of the four great battles fought ;- the» 
figures do not convey any idea of captivity 
more than is abfolately neceflary to.fhew de- 
feat: the body of the fub-plinth is enriched - 
with the heads of the four fhips in which 
thefe brilliant exploits were atchieved, at 
once perpetuating the glory of the Britifh: 
navy, and the ‘hips by which his glory was) 
confirmed... The fitaKs of ghe men of war are. 
to be. FAC sIMILES of the refpective fhips as 
n action, conveying to pofterity the indentity, 
of the individual vefie!s which contributed to 
fix dts fame.on an) immutable: bafe.. -The 
whole is ereéted on.a mural bafe, guarded by 
four lions couchant, emblematical of the in-’ 
digenous and.naval- valour of Great Britain, 
forming the grand bulwark to the whole, and 
intimating, that courage is the fureft guide to 
naval glory. On the projecting fides of the 
mural bafe, in raifed bronze letters, appears 
a de{cription of each battle, and of every thip. 
engaged, together with that of its opponent, 
and on the front the. fum total of the vefiels 
taken and deftroyed, by which each captain’s 
hame. becomes enrolled with that of his ship; 
and is hanced down to future ages, together! 
with his beloved and lamented’ chief. © This 
monument, the grateful effufion of liberality 
to Britith valour and departed excellence, 
rifes ior an encircled quadrangle, containing, 
1500 feet of water, to be fupplied with the 
pipes already fixed, and which can -ealily be 
brought to feed the refervoir, appearing to 
iffue from four heads-placed in the interme- 
diate {paces of the’ mural bafe, reprefenting 
the four great-and principal riyers of England, 
Ireland, ‘Scotland, and Wales, as contribut-
