The GRNuINB ORIaINAL D'REp Scorr

The GENUINE ORIGINAL DREp ScoTT
The now famous Dred Scott is resi-
dent Of St. Louis. He was brouf hit
there by his master thirty years ago.
He has been married twice. his first wife
by whom he had no children, having
been sold from him. He has had four
children by his present wife-two boys,
both dead. and two girls, both living.
Dred was at Corpus Christi at the break
ing out of the Mexican war, as the SER
want Of Captain Bainbridge, whom he
speaks Of as "good man."
On his return from MEXICO he applied
to his mistress, Mrs. Emerson, then liv-
ing near st. Louis, for the purchase of
himself and family, offering to pay part
Of the money down, and give an eminent
citizen Of st. Louis, an officer in the ar
my, as security for the payment of the
remainder. His mistress refused his
proposition, and Dred being informed
that he was entitled to his freedom by
the operation Of the lays regulating the
Northwest Territory, forthwith brought
suit for it. The suit was commenced
about ten years ago, and has cost Dred
$500 in cash. besides labor to nearly
equal amount. 1t has given him a
heap o'trouble." he says, and if he
had known that "ii was gwine to last SO
long, he would not have broughtit. The
suit was defended by Mr.. John Sanford,
as executor of Dr.. Emerson's will.
Dred does not appear at all discour-
aged by the issue of the celebrated case
although it dooms him to slavery. He
talks about the affair with the air of a
veteran litigant, though not exactly in
technical language, and is hugely tick
led at the idea of finding himself per-
sonage of such Importance. He does
not take on airs, however, but laughs
heartily when talking of .sde fuss dey
make dar in Washington bout de ole
Niger
He is about ffty-fve years old, tho
he does not know his own age. He is
of unmixed African blood, and as black
as piece of charcoal. For two or
three years past he has been running at
large. no one exercising ownership over
him, or putting any restraint upon his
movements.

LADIES' NAMES BEroRR AND ArrRr

LADIES' NAMES BEFORE AND AFTER
MARRIAGE.-Ladies should have but
one given name, and, when they are
married, should retain their maiden
name as middle name. This is prac-
tice among the Society of Friends, and,
were it generally adopted, It would have
many advantages. We, should know
at once, on seeing d ladys name,
whether she was married Of single; and
if the former, what the name of her
family was. And it is further to be
considered, that the adoption Of this
rule Of but single first name, would
quite put an end to the numerous brood
of Emma Meyalindas and Euphemia
Helen Lauras--a style of nomenclature
not in pure taste. ) ,'''' - .

A BENIN NEsCENCE.-The able New
York correspondent of the Milwaukee
Sentinel, in strong letter upon the
Dred Scott decision, recalls the follow
ing interesting incident touching that
class of Inhabitants who, according to
Judge fancy, "have no rights which a
white man is bound to respect:"
aDu:in the Revolutionary war, there
were whole regiments of colored troops
Rhode Island had colored brigade, in
which, if | am not mistaken, the illus
trious Greene served in his early career.
In the second war with England, COM
panies of colored citizens were muster
ed in the service of the United States,
in this city; and l well remember that
on the return of the U. S. frigate Mace
donian, when the corporation gave a
feast to the whole ships crew, as the
gallant fellows marched up Broadway,
band of some eight or ten stalwart
black men, marching in body, struck
my eye. There were other blacks in
the procession, scattered here and there,
but these were altogether. Having an
opportunity to ask Commodore Decatur
the reason pf this, he said the group
was the complement of particular gun
that certain men were assigned to
each gun-gave names to them and that
great emulation among the companies
thereon ensued. As to these black
men, their gun was called Black Bess'
-and more quickly handled, truly
served, and efficient gun, he had not in
all his broadside."

A ScENE.-During one night last
week while a fine steamer was on her
way up the river towards Pittsburg, a
crash was heard in one of the state
rooms of the ladies' cabin, followed
by the scream of the lady, who with
her husband occupied the state roon.
The ladies Of course, thought the
boat might be blown up. snagged, or
otherwise injured fearfully-and it was
finally necessary for the husband of the
lady whose screams had been heard, to
appear at the door, not exactly in prop
er costume for receiving the calls of
ladies. to explain that he, being a very
portly and weighty gentleman, had
taken the upper berth in the state room,
and during the night'tHs supports of the
berth giving way, he had fallen, berth
and all, upon his unfortunate wife,
soundly sleeping below. She was not
seriously injured, however, and the COM
motion at once subsidized, the affair af-
f6rding hearty laugh to all persons
next day, of course. The Pittsburg
Dispatch is responsible for the above.
