The people of Boston, Massachusetts have erected to the memory of Franklin, a statue, which was inaugurated with becoming pomp and solcmnity, o the 17th September last. That this was rig and proper for them to do, no one will for a. moment deny. He was a Bostonian. The part he played in life was in rtunt in the highest degree, whether as a po itician or as up ilosopher. In the former capacity he belongs exclusive] to the eople of Boston and America; in the atter, t c whole civilized and scientific world claim s share in him, and never was ii. statue erected to a man in all respects so worthy of it.

On the contrary, his was the honorable situation of the-psscemaker, no part of the pedestal upon Ihich a grateful and admiring posterity have oroctsd his effigy has been cemented by blood. In the earlier periods of the world he would have been rcverenced as a god. We give him the just and well deserved titles of philo- so her and christian. NR select from the Boston paper a descrip- tion f the statue.-— “ It is of bronze, and was cast by the Ames Iannfncturing Company, at Chicoppee, Mass. It is oi ht foot in height, and represents Frank- lin cla in an ordinary dross, his ontsids coat Ining fur, which is traditionally a printer’s material. The expression of the face in the plaster cast which we saw in the artist‘s studio, was noble and dignified. The hronsc statue is now concealed from view, and will be unveiled a . Thg site selected for the statue is the area in front of the City Hall in School street, between the two rdens. The statue is mounted on a pedestal of which the foundation is nits, surmounted by a lock of “ vsrd-ant qua" marble, on cash of the four sides of which will be placed a bus- rclisflrpprsssnting a prominent scene in Frank- ’I is.
