From the Philadelphiu U. s. Gazette.

Master Nina, the gentleman who has
recently fguredin the papers as connected
in some degree with the death of the Mr..
Chapman, arrived in this city from Bos-
ton last Friday, under the surveillance of
Mr.. Blaney, one Of the high constables.
Nina is kind Of blue-beard among the
contiding damsels and widows; he more
than realizes the idea which Dibdin puts
into mouth of a sailor:
ain every port he finds a wife,"
We find the following particulars of this
worthy's progress through the country, in
the Boston Patriot:
"Lina Amalia Esposacy Nina, who late
ly left this city under the escort ofth high
constable of Philadelphia, passed himself
ofiin Barnstable as the son of Mexican
nobleman,& ms The son ofa rich West In
dia planter. The Barnstable Patriot states
'hata young a. respectable female accom-
panied him to this city, lured by promise
ofmarriage, and the offer ofvaluable pres
cnts. He is said, also, to have married a
young lady in Barre, in this state"
The Philadelphia Chronicle has the fol-
lowing notice Of the rascal:
"a more impudent imposter has never
perhaps appeared in any country. He
had contrived to introduce himself into
some respectable families in Boston, and
on the very day Of his arrest, had effect
ed nm arrangement with merchant for
the advance OF $4,000 on forged letter of
credit. While in custody in Boston, and
on the journey here, his assurance never
deserted him moment. Before the
Mayor ofthis city he persisted in affirming
his high birth and pretensions as the SON
ofa Mexican grandee. 1t was not until
i've officers Of our penitentinry had re-
cognized him as an old acquaintance re-
Gently discharged from their care, that

From the Hartford Review.

A MODERN TYRANT.-Paraguay is
the Peninsula formed by the Parana and
Paraguay, containing about 80, 900 square
miles. Its population is about 5000,
composed ofwhites, blacks, and mixed
races. The whites, with the exception
of 800 Spaniards, are Creolea, and Con
stitute seven eights Of the population.
This little government is entirely under
the control of one man, Don Jose Gas
pard Rodriguez de Brancia. Paraguay,in
imitation of other South American States,
revolted from the Spanish Government in
1910. About the year ISl3,the deputies
Of the State adopted consular form of
Government, and DIR. Francia and one
Yegros were chosen consuls. In 1914
DIR. Francia managed to gain over the
deputies TO his purposes, and was chosen
sole Dictator of the country forthree years.
In 1917, SO artiully had he managed dur
ing his Dictatorship, that the deputies,
without hesitation, chose him Dictator
for life. Having thus gained the summit
ofhis ambition, he threw aside all disguise.
He was jealous, revengeful, passionate,
and remorseless. He filled his prisons to
overfiowing. The poor Spaniards suf-
fered most severely. Yethe seems to have
been acthated by none Of those motives
which have urged on other tyrants. He
livedin the most &c economical manner; with
out ostentation; and in the practice ofthe
most rigid morality. He seemed to act up
on a strange system of utility, which totally
disregarded individual suffering. Bytyr-
amy he has established necessary manu-
factures, and has promoted agriculture
by forcing men to labour.
He compelled the inhabitants Of As
sumption to pull down their old houses,
ly refused to enter into negotiation or
commerce with neighbouring provinces,
and has compelled his country to depend
on its own resources. He is fearful Of as
sassination, and not long since, he threw
an old woman into prison for looking in
to his window; and also gave his sentinel
the following singular order: "If any body
fixes his eyes upon my house; fire at him.
Ii you miss, here's another shot, (hold-
ing out loaded musket which he had in
his hand) and if you miss again, l shan't
miss you" The strange order spread
like wild fire. All avoided this redoubt-
able castle, and those who were obliged
to pass il, walked witlitheir eyes upon the
ground.
The whole population Of Paraguay are
held in strange sort Of imprisonment
None can leave the country withou
the consent Of the Dictator. He makes
prisoners Of all foreigners, and retains
them until by their liberation, ht
can advance some Of his cherished
purposes, or have his vanity fattered b,
negotiation for their release.
There is brighter side to the picture
ofthis singular man; & we are even com.
pelledto acknowledge with all his tyranny
he has been blessing to Paraguay. He ha.
tolerated all religions, put an end to per.
secution, established manufactures crea.
ted well disciplined army, enriched ag.
riculture, revived the arts, and while the
other States of South America have been
rent with broiIs, and deIuged with blood
he has secured tranquility to Paraguay
acting upon the principle that "fhc end
