MISCELLANY.
From the Chicago Journal, Feb. IS.
A Romance In Real Life.

British Nobility In Democratic America-A
Rund,cdy Match and What Came of it.
In yesterdays journal we gave an account
of coroner's inquest held upon the body of
Augustus C. Bfodhead, who died Monday
night with epieptic commissions.
As stated YESTERDAYS Brodhead was former
ly an officer In the British army, and had serv-
ed with distinction in India But since that
publication, a gentleman intimately acquaint-
ed with him has given us additional and high
ly interesting particulars regarding the career
OF this man.
A few years ago, Brodhead, then in the
prime of vigorous manhood, and wearing
the dashing artillery uniform of the British
service aud several royal medals, which
he had earned by bravery and success,
formed the acquaintance of wealthy baron
ess OF the Paget family, one OF the most aris-
tocratic houses of England. That acouaint-
ance Immediately became love match, aud
the unrelenting opposition of her family only
served TO make 1t runaway match. The
happy couple spent their honeymoon upon the
continent, visited Italy, Switzerland, and the
Egyptian pyramids, and two years ago they
came to Illinois and purchased a farm near
Clifton, in Iroquois county.
Brodhead was as ignorant of agricultural sci
ence as he was proficient in that of gunnery
and projectiles. And when to this serious inn
pediment is added a deep seated habit of dis
sipation-an inordinate fondness for the wine
cup-which his free and easy life had engen-
dered, and which most unfortunately was
shared by his wife, we have the sum total of
causes sufficient to blast any mans prospects
In life. His failure in an agricultural line on
ly confirmed him asa drunkard, and fastened
the denouement An ardent lover of field
sports, his dog and gun were in constant re-
QUESTION, and his heavy libations on such oc-
casions more than once laid him out for
nights lodging on the prairies. His wife,
once pet of British aristocratic circles, and
at one time maid of honor to the Queen, tho
highly accomplished lady, an excellent mu-
stefan, and speaking with ease seven different
languages, became even more besotted than
himself She died drunk a year ago, and
Brodhead was in such state OF beastly intox-
ication as to be unable to comprehend the fact
Since that time he has been rapidly "going
under" His property, dwindling away for
years, soon vanished, and at the time OF his
death we find that he had been driven to the
extremity OF pawning his golden medals. Tru-
ly truth is stranger than fiction"
