sickness of Jules Favre.

On the evening Of June l6 the Partisan cafes

lying at the point of death. The next morning
it was ascertained that NJ. Favre had indeed
been seized with hemorrhage, which. for

far, announces La France of June IL, this
has not happened, and NJ. Favre, although
much weakened, seems likely to recover.
He will hardly be strong enough. however, to

ing the press and public meetings. His absence

CHANGING NAMES.

Mr.. Yallsndigham's late letter speaks OF
Henry Wilson nee Jeremiah Colbaith. as a mat
ter of reproach. We do not kno the reasons
for Mr.. Wilson's change of name in early life;
but 1t Is remarked by an exchange that as 1t is
very common in New Hampshire, where Mr..
Wilson was born, to change names by act of
Legislature, for various reasons, it is hardly
necessary TO say that Mr.. Wilson had perfect
right TO have his name lawfully changed. Tne
pedantry Of Mr.. Vallandigham in using a
foreign word, adopted by him doubtless from a
show bill, without understanding its signi6ca-
tion, is noted by the Cincinnati Gazette as fol-
lows:--
"MT. Wilson's name was changed from Jeremiah
Colbaith. but he was not thereby changed from q
female. as the gender OF Mr Vallandigham's parti-
ciple signifies. In speaking of masculine change
of this sort IL is necessary TO use the masculine par
ucple ne, TO avoid declaring the miracle of q change
of sexes"
Apropos of the subject of changing names, we
knew gentleman in Louisville who had his
name changed by the Kentucky Legislature on
the ground that he could accomplish nothing
with such a load to carry as that of Smith. He
had very pretty name bestowed instead, aud
had achieved some considerable reputation ere
his death, which took place in the Union army
while he was yet young.

The Last soldier OF the Revolution.


HIRAMsBURG, Ohio, June 22.-Having Just
visited John Grey, the last survivor of WASH
lngton's army, desire through your columns
to give the public some account of this interest
ing and solitary veteran.
He was born at Fairfax Court House, Va,
January 6, 1764, and Is consequently now in his
one hundred and fourth year. During the revo-
luton he at one time worked on the Mount
Vernon estate for Washington, and says that ne
worked with the slaves of General Washington.
He always calls Washington 1.-The Ginl.n a.
MIR. Grey's father fell at White Plains, iu 1850,
and soon after the son enlisted, with Spartan
heToism, at the early age of sixteen, taking I'D
the musket that had just fallen from the llfeless
hands OF his gallant father. He served until
the close of the war, and was mustered out at
Richmond, Virginia, soon after the surrender
of Corvallis. During his term of service he
participated in an engagement at williamsburg
besides several sklrmishes elsewhere, and was
present at all the preliminary movements
around Yorktown, and was finally at the me-
morable surrender of Cornwallls. .a
/ took down a few of the old mans words
when he was speaking of his service in the
army. II was" said he, "a mighty tough kind of
boy in them davs. often saw big, heavy
men give out on the march, but ] never Jagged
foot behind" He says he was married three
times. twice in Virginia and once in Ohio. His
last wife is now sleeping in the family cemetery.
Mr. Grey has lived sober, pious, and indus
trious life-a hard-workiDg man and Christian
all his lite.
For seventy.eight years he has been con-
sistent member of the Methodist Church. There
are old men living near him now who have
known him for forty years, and who say that
they never knew of his doing or saying wrong
thing nor ever heard any one say that he did.
Few men have so pure and noble a record. MIR.
Grey's education is very limited for he was
always poor, and the poor in Virginia had but
little chance to learn much. Congress last
winter gave the old man pension of $500 per
annum, obtained for him through the influence
of Hon. John A. Bingham, a personal acquaint-
,.lCI 10 10 fe old
seems we'll satisfied, although he is very poor.
He is a jealous Republican, and hopes to live
TO vote once more. We bade the old hero good.
by, and left him, feeling that we had met q
noble speciInen of buried age.

About O'Clock on Saturday night two bur-

New York. and the house was occupied by his
wife and children. One of the latter, q son,

Mrs. Whiting had arrived at the head of the

daughters room, something struck her, ana she
was thrown down the whole flight of stairs and
was subsequently picked up wounded and
bleeding. and in an insenslble condition. AS
the burglars did not pass through on the front
stairs, IL is supposed that they must have gone
down the back stairs, stepping over the wounded
lady, and jumped out OF the back window.
Mrs. Whiting was immediately cared for. II
was ascertained that her head was badly in
jured; that one of her ribs had been fractured,
and that she was injured internally. Her
wounds are serious, and it is feared she cannot
recover. Nothing has been missed in the house,
and II is thought the burglars failed to secure
any booty.

TRAGEDY IN A CoAn MNE.--The Journal de

TRAGEDY IN Coal M1NE.-The Journal de
Liege says that the men engaged in reopening
and repairing the works of the coal mine Of
Bow Buveur at Jemeppe, after reaching
depth of nearly 100 metres, have, at the end of
four months, come upon gallery communi-
eating with the lower ladders; there they dis
covered seven bodies of the unfortunate work
men who were there imprisoned while making
their way to the surface. The bodies are com
pletely mummifed, the shrivelled flesh ad-
herring to the bones. This phenomenon is
attributed to the abundant exhalations of car
bonic acid gas. The bodies lay on their backs,
one after the other, the hands being crossed
under the head. Two were found locked in a
close embrace. No satisfactory conclusion has
as yet been arrived at as to the cause Of the
death of these men, whether from the inhala-
tion of carbonic acid or from want of food,
being thus entombed. The gallery was unsafe
at the time the discovery was made, but care
is being taken to ventilate it, and to bear away
the bodies safely. The work of reparation is
yet likely to be tedious, for much injury has
been done, and the work requires to be set
about with great caution.
