1t is ru1uored in England that tue British
House Of Peers will soon have to try one Of
their members for murder. The Peer In qucs-
tion is said to be the Marquis Of Dcyoushire.
His lortiship is IS years Of age, and married
the eldest daughter Of the late Viscount Com
bermcrc. The particulars thus far made pub
lie arc stated as follows, BY a correspondent Of
the Manchester Guardian:
The Marquis OF D-'s yacht, nnw at Ma
pies, has BEEN thu scene Of one Of those t1age-
dies which We are apt to think, in these dead
level days, lie far away from thu region Of t.al
life, In the domain exclusively appropriated By
tlte dr1n,atfst md the tale writer. The Mar
quis Ind been for some time cruising with
some members Of Ills fa1nily, including q
youthful daughter, Lady Alice. Tho yacht
was commanded by a halfpay Lieutenant Of
the royal navy. The Marquis coming on
board unexpectedly, from m excursion on
shore, if am rightly informed, found his cap
tain at tho feet Of his daughter, kissing her
hand. The indignant father-a ma.1 OF Her
culean strength the offender, and, let
It be hoped, intending only to tear him away
from bis unseemly place ind action, flung him
over the bulwark cf TIC yacht into the sea,
when he went down at once In spite-adtl

Marquis and lis sailors efforts to save him

THE "OLD FoGY. We admire the
much abused :'olI fogy." There is con-
siderable shrewd, Old time common sense
in him. He never, like an ill-conditioned
musket. goes off half-cocked, despite the
fact of his not being a little rusty with
age and exposure The ''fogy" is not the
irate, cross grained, stubborn being he is
pictured by the majority Of word painters.
That obstinate, surly, growing class we
are wont to recognize rs "fogIes, are
are merely pretenders. The true fogy is
conservative There is no taint of radi
calism in MS composition. He is calm,
dispassionate and logical and if he gets
the worst Of an argument, he walks away
rs grandly as if he had achieved victory
He regards the.men OF present, with their
bioviating about progress and all that, as
children, who, il properly trained, may
come to something good lie laughs at
this tremendous goaheaditiVeness, and
smiles upon their efforts to outdo the past.
He pats them ON the head, and mildly
advises them to restrain their enthusiasm,
curb their fiery zeal aud coolly hints that
sihey stumble who run fast" or suggests
10 them to "look before they leap" He

his youth, its aspirants, joys and hopes
He rarely rakes up the past in his genial
structures upon the present or its people.
Yet, in his own habits, thoughts and be-
liefs, he adheres to the ways of his youth.
He regards them as much better for him
aud more comfortable than those of the gen
Grafton which has grown up around him.
This is the Simon Pure Fogy, and we
love him. His ecceatricities are not
thrust into public notice; he keeps them
to himself as much as possible, and when
he finds they may be unwelcome intruders
in spite Of restraint, he carefully sugars
them over with his kindly genial good
humor, so that ottre as they are, we are
half inclined to like them Long may we
have the cold fogy'' with US. Were We
all, of this generation, as honest, virtuous
and pure IN our lives as. the genuine old
fogy, those who come after us would re-
spect cur memories much more than We
fancy they will as we live now.
