| DENISE OF SINGULAR PARSONAGE. -
The English naturalist, Waterton, died
on the 26th Of May, in the eighty fourth
year of his age, from the effects Of fall
received while crossing a bridge on bis
large estate. Squire Waterton," as be
was familarly called, though perhaps, mol
generally known, Of late years in this
country, enjoyed an extensive reputation
through England and the continent. Pos.
sessad of family rank and a large for.
tune, be, in youth, excelled in the athle-
tic sports Of his time, and following the
bent of his mind, turned his attention al
most wholly to natural history after CON.
pletng collegiate studies at Stonyhurst
He made repeated visits to South Ameri.
ca, and took toor Of observation through
the United States for the sole purpose of
examining the habits and characteristics
of American birds and animals. As the
result Of his travels and investigations,
he gave the public "Wanderings in South
America, Essays on Natural History"
and contributed numerous articles to the
English magazines on his favorite topic.
Brave, hardy, and fond of excitement, he
used to meet with numerous adventures
in his travels Upon one occasion, while
bathing in South American river, an al.
ligator suddenly made his appearance near
him. Instead of attempting to escape, he
boldly leoped upon the animals back and
was carried in safety nearly to the oppo-
site shore. lie was very much opposed
to the forms and customs of society, be.
lieving that the utmost simplicity in style
and dress was the most compatible with
mans happiness. Tn accordance with
these views, he labored assiduously to
make stole Of his son. "Do not avail
yourself" he used to say to him, OF an
artificial t1re to keep warm, but follow the
example Of the beast Of the field. They
have no artificial covering, no ranges or
stoves to warm their apartments, but run
about in the open air, and exercising their
limbs, thus beget q natural hea: when
weather is cool and uncomfortable. "Why
do you wear a hat my soDI" he would
say. "The birds Of the air do not thus.
Expose yourself to the sun and storms,
harden your muscles and develope your
oouy 90 not uiScommode yourself by
following the customs of those around
you; if you come to e river, plunge in
and swim across, and not take circuit.
obs course to reach bridge because your
acquantances do"
SO far did he push his peculiar views
that he used to encourage his son to roam
about his estate, in boyhood, in nearly
nude state. So says a gentleman who
used TO know him intimately at his home.
Such devotion to his pursuits Of course
made him a most eminent naturalist, and
long and skillful practice rendered him.
the first bird stuffer in the world: Like
his ancestors before him, he was a CathO.
lie, and seeing that his end was drawing
near, he sent to the Pope for spiritual ad.
vice and consolation. The Pope sent his
blessing in reply, by telegraph. just be-
fore his death.
