FOUNTAINS OF SAINT-MACLOU, AND OF THE PUCELLE.

Strangers will be repaid for their trouble in going to see these

fountains. The first, is situated at the corner of the church of

Saint-Maclou; there remain still two figures of children, an elegant

creation of Jean Goujon. We mention the second, the _fountain of the

Pucelle_, on the place of the same name, on account of the historical

recollections, which are attached to it. It is a heavy composition of

Paul Slodtz. Its want of style causes us to regret the beautiful

triangular fountain, which was erected after the execution, in this

square; of the _heroine of Vaucouleurs_, a monument which instead of

destroying, they should have tried to preserve.
