SKETCH OF THE LIFE
JOHN G. FREMONT
From the New York Evening Post.

L.
PARENTAGE BIRTH AND EDUCATION.
In the social descriptions of the French
Revolution, many broken fortunes we're re.
planted in America, and, in the words Of
Chateaubriand, then himselfa wanderer in
our country, ''the names of settlements in the
United States became a touching record Of
the wrecks Of European homes" What
seemed then only an adverse stroke of for
tune TO those upon whom it fell, proved the
establishment Of many prosperous families
the seed scattered by the storm bearing a
hundred fold on the rich soil of the new
world.
During this time, passenger ship bound
to one of the French West Indian possessions,
was taken by an English man. Of. war on the
eve Of reaching her destination. The pas
sengers, with the ship, we're carried prison
ers into one of the English Islands, where
they experienced the usual rigid treatment
Of prisoners Of war in that day. Among them
was young Frenchman from the neighbor-
hood Of Lyons. who was on his way to Join
an aunt in st. Domingo.
During bis protracted captivity, he eked
out the scanty prison allowance by baske,
making-a common resource among the pris.
oners-in which his superior taste soon ena.
bled him to excel Some skill in painting
too. procured him occasional employment in
decorating ceilings with the frescoes which
are common in the dwellings of the wealthieI
families Of the tropics.
After some years detention be was finally
liberated or escaped (the latter, it is beIiev.
ed, and in his endeavors to find his way
homeward, finally arrived at Norfolk, Vir.
ginia. Being entirely without resources for
the farther prosecution of bis homeward voy.
age, be gave lessons in bis native language
to the citizens OF Norfolk. While thus en-.
gagged, bis strong wish to return to bis coun-
try was displaced by an attachment be form
ed for young Virginia lady-an orphan Of
extraordinary beauty. They we're married
in opposition to the wishes of her family
from which an sstrangemsnt resulted which
] was never rsoonciled.

The death of his sister and the departure
OF bis brother made harsh inroad on the do.
mestic quiet OF his family. and gave q sudden
check to the careless and unrshectine habits
which had hitherto marked the conduct Of
the Youthful Fremont.
He now awOke to the sober interests of
life. as circumstances brought him into ruder
contact with them, and be devoted himself
to earnest labor, which, since then, has new.
er been intermitcd.

LEAVES FROM OAK AND.
Strolls abont the Capitol.
Bp .Dulld NaWttornI

StGOIIS 0bO0e 1hc Capitol
To one accustomed to move on with the
quiet current Of progress in ar Eastern town,
the rapid change and marvellous growth Of
one uf these youthful Western cities almost
exceed belief. One sees very little Of this,
comparatively, in single walk or ride thro'
the town. after years absence; it is only
after succession of ramb!es that he begins
to appreciate the wonderful spirit Of activity,
the intensity Of life that pervades all kinds
Of business
Madison, as most of your readers probably
know, was selected twenty years ago as the
capital Of Wisconsin, when 1.-THE region round
about" was almost an unbroken wilderness.
An old log cabin, with its weather-beateD
walls and dilapidated clay chimney, is still
pointed out as the only approach to civiliza-
tion which had been made on the site Of the
town, when the State deputation arrived to
commence building the handsome stone State
House which now graces the centre Of the
city. Ii its deserted walls could speak, what
tales could that old log cabin tell of solitary
forest life yet now, the rush and hum of bu-
siness fill all the air around it. For num-
ber Of years the growth of the town was
slow; and We are told that seven years since
the population was numbered by hundreds.
But about that time, one of those sudden i'm
pulses of trade anc immigration, tor which
spectators and political economists can &C.
count better than can so quickened its vi
ta!ity, that from that period its progress has
never tagged.
The two lakes on either side, Menona and
Mendoza, or, as they are commonly called
Third and Fourth Lakes, approach quite
near each other in their whole extent, at one
point leaving the distance between them less
than half a mile, though the average
width of the city is much more. Near the
the centre of this strip Of land. on an eleva'
ted spot, stands the capitol, surrounded by
its pleasant park of about fourteen acres
we'll filled with shade trees, which are jus,
now out in full dress, 'of the latest Spring
styles" Many Of these, Of younger growth
are naples, elms, locusts, and mountain ash
which have been carefully transplanted; Su'
the native oaks have been allowed to remain
IN their places, which gives the park quite q
grown-up look, for one Of its age. Good
honest, simple oaks! They did not push
themselves into place; they have been For
tunes favorites. They buried themselves in
common soil, like common acorns, and grew
as Wild and scraggy Is common oaks, and
never dreamed, in their younger days, that
theirs was an uncommon destiny yet here
they are, at middle age, all trimmed and
trained into the proprieties Of city life, and

"Our forces amount TO eight hundred strong.
