An American PIay I'm ParI..

The Paris correspondent of the New York
Times says: e
One of the French theaters has just brought
out with agreat flourish of trumpets, a FIVE
act drama founded on the American War of
Independence, called The Phantom Horse.
In this piece we necessarily see Washington
and Lafayette, but particularly Lafayette
The piece in fact reminds one of that famous
picture in the palace of Versailles, which
represents the battle of Yorktown, and which
places tile French General, Rochambeau, in
the foreground giving the order of battle,
while Washington stands meekly behind,
like an aid-de-camp. In The Phantom Horse
Lafayette says and does everything, and it
is the French who whip the English, not
Washington and his colonists. But more
wonderful still, Lafayette, or rather the
American Revolution, is carried SO far into
this, our century, that the brave young French
General is permitted to make illusions to
Magenta and Solferinol In a grand scene
that in which Lafayette appears before the
splendid court of Louis XVI, at Versailles,
in l779, to plead the cause of the American
colonists-the author of the play has put in
the mouth Of the young General a speech of
the purest Buncombe type-a bombastic
TRADE which ends by throwing the audience
into laugh-and yet those were serious
times and serious subjects. The Phantom
Horse-the horse is almost phantom in the
| piece, he appears SO rarely--is got up in the
most magnificent style; new music, new dec
orations and costumes, and a really fine ballet.
| NJ. Maurice C0ste, the gentleman who does All
the Napoleons at this theater, and is rather
too small for the First Consul undertakes in
The Phantom Horse the role of the gigantic
Washington. As second fiddler TO Lafayette,
his size is in keeping with the idea of the
| author.

CoQUETRY AND FLRTATIoN.-Coquetry and
Irritation are as different rs diamonds and
paste. "Coquetry (says Ike Marvel-a mar
velous good judge Of the matter,) is natural
and becoming to woman, while filtration is
false and deceitful, and never came of n true
heart" The distinction is worth making,
for it is founded in positive difference.
Coquetry is but a piquant form of maiden
modesty. 1t is sly, bashful and cautious;
limiting a love which il is not bold enough to
avow; and teasing a lover whom it dare not
caress. But Irritation is delusion and
fraud from beginning to end. 1t is born of
vanity, nursed by pride, and usually dies of
modification. 1t is a game in which both
players cheat, and both invariably loose. OF
course, it is not worth a candle. Worst of
all, like ''the Illicit love-" to which it often
leads,
"It hardens all within, and petrifies the feeling
Therefore, leave flirting TO people already
bldse with their own vices; and keep your
heart open for the true love that shall yet be
its welcome guest.

MAN NEARLY KILLED BY THE KICK OF A
siding short distance from the city, in Har-

the kick of horse, day before yesterday,
that it is thought he can not recover. He
had Just entered the stable for the purpose OF
harnessing the animal, when it struck him a
severe blow in the abdomen. The blow has
already caused inflammation of the viscera,
which, it is more than probable, will result
in death. .Ii A-

REMOVAL OF THE REMAINS OF A PIONEER
At the last session of the Legislature of Ken
lucky an appropriation of 800 was voted to
defray the expenses of removing the remains
of Mr.. Ellison Williams, one of the earliest of
the Kentucky pioneers, to Frankfort there
to be inferred by the side of Daniel Boone.
A correspondent furnishes the following in
teresting sketch Of his life;
Ellison Williams was born in North Caro-
lima, April 10, l766, and was brought TO Ken
lucky by his father in l775. He was in the
fort at Bryant Station in 1882 when it was
besieged by Simon Girty and his savage
army. He was the, companion of Daniel
Boone in many hunting excursions in the
neighborhoodo of the Blue Licks. He settled in
Kenton County, on Bank Lick, near where
Dedmans tavern stands, in 1880. He built
the first house for the habitation in Coving-
ton, al the point of Licking and assisted in
cutting out the first road for Fort Washing
ton to Lexington. le
He died August II, 1850, near the Hugraw
Mill, in the neighborhood Of Covington. The
last General Assembly appropriated $50 to
defray the expenses Of his re-interment at
Frankfort in the grounds devoted to pioneers
near the grave of Boone. His relatives have
yielded to the wishes of the Commonwealth
because they know it was his desire in his
life time. He was at Frankfort in lS45 when
the remains of Boone were brought back from
Missouri, and was one OF the pall-bearers or
the occasion. and he then expressed desire K
be deposited near his old leader and com
panion.
