Strange Vicissitudes in the Life of a
British Nobleman's Son

From the Decatur (Ill.) Magnet, Sent OIL
Most II not nearly all, OF our citizens have
noticed 8 disslpated vehicle, somewhat resem.
Ding clrcus wagon, located on q vacant lot
on Nc1th Main street. in which resided an old
and poverty-stricken man. Some time in the
spring the wagon, propelled by couple OF at.
tenuated horses, arrived in this city, and the
old man pitched his tent in the place ms
honed, where, through the charity of the own.
ers, he has since been permitted to dwell.
ia,ap ne mas lived ever since, eking out an e1
ls'ence oy the donations Of our benevolent cit
small sum.
Yesterday; F: S. Murphy, Esq, one of our
pfomin ent lawyers, received a call from
Scotch gentleman named McGregor, who, after
long and weary search, had found the ipdi-
Vldual named we have thus described. and
late Earl OF ClanrIcarde, one of the wealtniest
and most influential noble men in Scotland.
The story related by Mr. Mc(fregor Is al
most marvellous in its details, and would fur
nish the m aterials for first-class three volume
novel. Some forty years since, the poor old
man who has attracted the compassion OF our
citizens was de Ihipg and stylish officer in
the Life Guards becoming enam ored of beau
tlful girl of humble origin, he married her in
opposition TO the commands Of his proud
father and circumstances of his equally proud
elder brother Being disinherited and thrown
upon the world. he sold his commission, and
with his wife-came 10 this country. After five
years OF yicIssltudes upol rugged farm in
the Western wilcs, his wife died and broken in
spirit and sore in heart, he relinquished his
claim and 70 med without aim or purpose
over the country.
Duripc the Mexican war he enlisted as a pri.
vaie sol uier. and served until the close of hos.
tilities. Since then, he has been the conn anion
of rowing Indians, deck hand on steamboats,
a peddler, &c until his arrival in this CITY

The possessor of estates to the value of $4,000
per annum. His good fcrtu ne alas, has come
too late. Pros trate in mind and enfeeble in
body, ne cannot realize, nor en- he long ENJOY
the priIcely fortune 10 which he has fallen
heir. Yesterday evening, in care of Mr. Nc
Gresor. he embarked on the evening train en-
route for his lordly mansion i'll Inverness Scot
land. Fortune smiled too late. His early love
sleeps by La Belle Ririers and he lives q poor
wreck OF his former sef-too inn ecile to heed
the frowns or smiles of fortune. Reader is not
truth far stranger than fiction! Events occur
every day that outrival the widest dreams Of
the poet or romancist.
