he "can stand at his door ON calm morning. and
make every one hear him with the exception OF
three" He further says reasoning from what
has occurred, "if his life is spared FIVE years lon
fer, he will have 200. instead of las co!laieras,
immediately around him." He yet retains the
sigof and activity ofyouth--is fond of sporting,
and often amuses himself by hauling the SEINE
and sometimes stands 5bs hours waist deep IN The
water, without expsiiencing any bad effect from
it. He lost his wife about three winters ago. with
whom he had lived in happy wedlock So years.
! It has been 90 years since hethas had any sick
ness and 40 years since he has required physi-
can for himself. He is quite monument of an-,
tiquity, being perfectly familiar with the scenes
of tie Revolution. during which, tune he was en-.
gagged in the then profitable business of oysterings
and supplied Gen. Washingion's table with oys-
tiers at Mount Vernon. until his death. He has
f.eqnenly been in his house and received the mon
