It seems to look out from its marble, sightless eyes, with a sort of impassive scorn at the relics of the Republic strewn about it, and its treatment has been an ample justification for such stony feeling. When the family of Joseph Bonaparte left Bordentown, this bust w^as sold, among other things. It lingered along for a few years in neglect when the worthy matron who lived in the old homestead found it in the garret. Thinking it would make a good ornament for her posy bed she carefully white-...washed its classic marble features, - and set it out in the garden for her vines to trail upon. It stood there for many years until ART WORKS AND CURIOS. ;^;^ recognized and purchased by an art connoisseur who pre- sented it to the Society. *' Sic transit gloria /nundi. '" One might spend hours in interested inspection of these relics, and as he looks them over the thought is forced home most strongly that here the hour glass of time turns far more slowly than in the hurrying crow^ded streets below.
