"The worlds a stage'-A Re-
nance.

n paragraph is going the rounds of the
papers, relating how man named Frazer
was recently arrested near Baltimore, and
committed to the Jail, Morrislown, N. j.,
from whenca be has escaped when urder
confinement for counterfsiting, The sto-
~ is touched up with little romance con
corning a sister Of biz, who is said to have
struggled hard for livelihood 10 her young
days, but who is now great lady in the
Court Of France. All Of which is true.
This Frazer vas once resident of our
country. He came here with Lucen Mu,
rat-son of the iiuslrious Aarat and the
beautiful Pauline Bouoparte nephew OF
the old and COUSIN to the present Emperor.

and caok-tigu,ing we're more Il dustnously
attended to than legitimate business; still,
grlst mill, few shops and n store were
put up, but i'll the eud went down under
the Sheriffs hammer. Thus began and
ended the great city Of "Joaehim." The
old mill is still standing as monument
of Lucien Murat's failure in this country.
The right who built the mill still holds an
expressive momento of Lueien in the form
of "promise to pay" given for $500
worth Of labor performed.
After our adventures left this country,
Frazer went to New York and got rich,
Murat went to Bordentown, N. Z. mar
ried Frazer's sister, and remained poor
His wife actually supported him by teach
ing school. Meantime the brother con
tiuued to wax fat aud fast. He became
noted as a gentleman Of wealth, leisure
and pleasure, without giving a thought, it
is said, 10 bis relatives, who were under
the frowns of fortune. The throw of the
dice box of destinies which gave France
into the hands of Louis Napoleon, also
gave place and glory to Lucisn Murat aid
his very worthy and hard working wifa.-.
He is now one of the high digDitaries Of
the Empire, and she is one of the finest
ladies of the Court! Thus while the sis
ter occupies the Elysee Bourbon at Paris,

Hon. ThOs Il. Ford.

Ex Governor Ford made speech at the
recent convention which unanimously nom
inated Hon. John Sherman for reelection
to Congress, Mr.. shsrmVn made a long
and able speech. which was published in
sxteOsO in the Sandu'Ey Register. That
paper also gives synopsis Of the remarks
Of Gov. Ford. Il says:
Gov, Ford remarked that be bsd 10 in.
tention Of making speech, bat be would
attempt to explain one OF two matters
which bis friend NJ. Sherman had pro.
nouueed unaccountsble. For bis part, be
did not consider it at all difficult 10 nc
count for .he disposition Of the Admins
trstion party TO be continually claiming
the boHored names Of Jefferson, Madison,
Jackson, &c, IS representatives Of their
Democracy. He did not agree with Mr..
Sherman il the opinion there was anything
inconsistent in this. On the contrary, be
thought that, Notwithstanding the wide de
parture Of tie modem from the ancient
Democracy, 1t could lie accounted for on
natural aud philosophical principles -
"Perbsps," said the slesker, Il cannot
illustrate my meaning better than by re-
peating table, written by some Old au
thOr-of a grand convention Of auimsls
which met for the purpose Of comparing
notes as to their respective gensalog Ies.--
All the animals we're very free to give
full particulars Of their pedigree or decent,
except one-tbe mue--who, although el
oquent in lrumpeling the illustrions praises
of its grandfather, could not be induced
to say any thing relating to its father
'On minute inquiry into the cause Of this
ominous silence respecting its immediate
ancestor it turned out that the grandfather
was horse-while its fa!her was-an asst
So it is with modern Democrocy. 1t is
never tired Of prating Of its decent from
the Isfersons and Jacksons Of other days,
but it has as little as possible to say Of its
modern parent james Bucbsnanl Jefferson
Was its great grandfather, and he MAS the
"horse" Of the fable; Buchanen is the "a
ther, and be IS the ass.
The speaker went on at some length to
trace the degeueracy Of modern Democra-
cy, and in doing SO be gave the Admins.
tions Of Pierce and Buchanan some hard
rsps, His speech was interlsrded with hu'
morOus and pointed illustrations, which
repeatedly brought down the house" aud
kept it in roar of laughter. 1t was one
OF those efforts which are unreportsble,
aud which must be heard to oe appreciated.
In conclusion, be referred in the most hap.
py manner 10 the vitality and iuvincibility
of the principles that lay at the foundation
of the Republican organization--their ul-
innate triumph being only question of
time. He paid Mr.. Shermen graceful
compliment as being the faithful and q
ble representative of these principles
