With respect to the gigantic preportjons of the statue, there was less unanimity, many iblaking it on too large a sale for any site. The dray or carriage apon which it was re- moved weighed hout 20 tous, and consisted of a strong square frame spon foar equi circumferential iron wheels, 10 feet in diameter, the two front being constructed with radiating cast-iron spokes, and the hind wheels were ut sheet-iron of rather a convex shape and very wide rims. The statue was slang within this frame, the feet of the horse resting upon narrow ledges about two feet and a half from the ground, thus sinking the weight so low as to pre cladle all danger of overturning. The task of withdrawing the statue from the studio was a work of tiase and labour, and was accomplished by means of haulage, the rapes being manned by 100 of the Fusilien Guards, in fatigue dress. A few minutes after 11 the statue was fairly dragged into the open street, where it was received with the most tremendous cheer by the assembled crowls; nearly an hour more was consumed in turning the carriage inte is proper rack and in yoking the horses who were to drag it to its destination. These horses, 29 in number, were supplied by Mr Goding, brewer, and were driven by 10 stady draymien in full professional costume, one wear ing upon his breast a Waterloo medal.
