LER THE GOOD WORK GO ON!

Public sentiment lias been thoroughly aroused at last, in favor of the uioveHient toward the erecting of Bartholdi's Statue, “Liberty Enlightening the World,” in the harbor of New York. Some idea of the extent of the publif'sentiment is shown by the fact<wiat the f ‘New-York World” Jias been able to report subscrip- , tions of over §30,000 in a month’s time, in sums averaging less ■ thaw §I.OO each, the great bulk of these; contributions being in dimes and quarters. What a magnificent object it . will be, towering almost into the clouds from New York’s beautiful harbor!! It will stand as a grand and everlasting symbol of liberty before the eyes of every one coming from the oppressed countries ’beyond the ocean. At the gate way of no other nation could it stand with such appropriateness. The .committee in charge of the erection of the pedestal for the reception of this great w ork, have .prepared a beautiful statuette, as a souvenir to send to each person who subscribes §I.OO It is one of the grandest undertakings of modern times, and eminently fitting that it should be built fiom the hearts and pockets of our people. Every person wishing to become a subscriber should send their address to Richard Butler, Secretary American Committee of the Statue of Liberty, N®. 33 -Mercer -Street, New York, and will receive in return a •miniature reproduction of this great work, While large subscriptions are always desirable it would be far more to the credit of this great nation if every man, woman, and child should own a block in the pedestal which will support the -everlasting monument of “Liberty Enlightening the World.” —■" ♦ Ministers, Lawyers, Teachers, aud others whose ■occupation gives them but little exercise, should use Carter’s Little Liver Pills'for torpid liver and biliousness.
