13 and face. Indeed,the features, etc., remind me of the lateMr. Cobden, and the cap is such as yachting sailors usuallywear. There is also another remarkable group, consistingapparently of a man and woman standing before a cross,proportioned like the conventional ovm in use amongstChristians. Everything indicates American ideas, and thereare ornaments or designs wholly unlikjC any that I have seenelsewhere. The man appears t0 ofFer to the cross a gro-tesque human figure, with a head nfot mucli unlike Punch,with a turned-up noiie, and a short pipe shaped like a fig inhis mouth. The body is well formed, but the arms andthighs are rounded off like *fli2:)pers or fins. Kcstingat the top of the cross is a bird, like a game cock, orna-mented by a necklace. The male in this and the othersculptures is beardless, and that women are depicted, canonly be guessed at by the inferior size of some of thefigures. It would be unprofitable to carry the descriptionfarther. Figs. 11, 12 are from vol. i.
