On Sunday, the 26th Sept, the bronze statue of the late Count Senna Fernandes, subscribed for by his Chinese admirers (the holders of the profitable farms to which he assisted them) was erected in the Holy City. It is life-size and stands on a granite festal, on which are engraved inscriptions in Pos ese and Chinese. Seversl acres of land have been acquired around it, and this space will be laid out sa garden and enclosed with an ornamental iron railing. The pedestal was supplied by Messrs. Brown, Jones and Ca. the well known undertakers of this Colony, who contract for monuments of all kinds. The statue will not be formally unveiled for several weeks.
