George Peabody,


Mr.. Peabody, as the cable informs us,
died at "his residence in Eaton-square."
1t was one of the peculiarities Of Mr..
Peabody that he never would have a
house of his own. He cared little for
himself in all things-it was his habit,
for instance, to dine off mutton chop
at the grand dinners he used to give,
where every luxury was spread upon the
table. He had room in the house of
his old friend, Sir Curtis M. Lampson,
in Eaton-square, and it was there he
died. He used to live there in the
most quiet and retired manner, and his
name did not appear in any directory or
"Court Guide" He has suffered much
during the last four years, and could
very seldom be induced to call in doc
tor when he did neither obeyed the
doctors orders nor took his medicine.
AS one of his physicians complained a
short time ago, Mr.. Peabody was "most
unsatisfactory" patient. He hated to
be asked after his health, or have any
fuss made over him. He will, no doubt
be buried at Danvers, Mass.-that, al
least, was the wish he often expressed
in his lifetime. We may add that the
statute of Mr.. Peabody, recently set W
in the Royal Exchange, London, has
given satisfaction to everybody, except
the Saturday Review. The attack Of
that journal upon it was lately re
printed in these columns. The sculptor
is an American--quite sufficient to &C
count for the sneers of the Review.-N

WASHINGTON AS A SPORTSMAN
The Field, Turf and Farm says that
Washington was an enthusiastic sports
man. He loved to ride after the hounds,
and during the season, between the years
1859 and IVA, Mount Vernon was
crowded with sporting guests. The pro-
prietor of the estate had one of the
finest packs ofhounds in the country,
and no one could better manage horse
in the chase. Washington was bold,
fearless rider, his favorite horse being
Blueskin, a frey animal of great endur-
ance; and when in full cry, we are told
that the host often led where the guests
dare not follow. During the war the
hunting establishment was neglected,
and it ran down, but its glory was re-
vived when the Marquis de Lafayette,
after the peace of 1888, sent the Gen.
eral pack of French hounds. Wash
ington was also fond of horse racing, and
when the meetings at Alexandria were
so fashionable, he joined in the throng
that applauded the high mettled steeds.
When General Washington was called
to preside in the Convention which form
ed the Federal Constitution, he gave
away his hounds, and the pleasures of
the chase were abandoned at Mount
Vernon.

The OnOndaga Giant.

The latest from the Cardiff stone man
shows that his giantship was a man of
means. He laid down to rest how many
years ago y with his pockets full of specie.
The Syracuse Journal tells the wondrous
tale. Here it is:
On Saturday last, Matthew, son of DR..
Alexander Henderson, vetinary surgeon,
of this city, while visiting the Cardiff gil
ant, picked up from the surrounding debris
thrown out of the excayateG resting place
that seemed like hlackened scale of brass
or rusty old button. Thinking that it
might possibly have some affinity to the
wonderful statue, the lad rubbed the dirt
and rust from its surface between his
finger and thumb, and Furnishing it q
little 10y rubbing it in the folds of his coat
skirts, it showed evidence of being an old
copper coin, and he accordingly placed it
carefully in his pocket and brought it
home. DR.. Henderson, the lads father,
applied some acids to it, when an ancient
coin, of nearly the eleventh century,
revealed itself.
On the diverse side of the coin is the
head of the Emperor Iestyn, with full
flowing beard from the chin, and the sa-
cred heart strung from rosary in the
shape of shield or breast plate hung
around the neck. Beneath the Emperor
is the date, "IO9l." Around the edge of
the coin is the following inscription !:
s'Iestyn-Ap Gwrgant, Tywysog Nor
ganwg.' The Interpretation of this, as
rendered by q competent Welshman,
means 'Iestyn, son of Gwrgant, Prince of
Glanmorgan." On the reverse side is the
figure of the Goddess of Commerce, seated
on the wheel at her side, the pill ar and
ancient crown wreathed with the same
national emblem, the oak, the shield and
spear, supported by the left hand, and the
right pointing to ship on the distant sea,
with full sails set, which she seems intent
ly gazing at. The inscription around the
circle is in the Welsh language, and reads
as follows: "Y. Brenhin ar Cyfraith,"
the Interpretation of which is: "The King
and the Laws The coin is ITS years
old or over seven and half centuries
and on the edge of the rim can be distinct.
ly seen "Glanmorgan Half Penny with
representations of leaves INTERVENING.
The denomination of the coin is imprinted
in raised letters, and everything connected
with it shows it to be coin of the reign
of the Emperor whose name it bears
Further, in connection with the unearth-
ing of the stone giant, its discovery in the
loose dirt thrown up from the bed of the
excavation where the statue was found and
yet lies, is certainly quite interesting, and
seems to add to the general interest that
attaches to this great and unexplained
mystery OF the nineteenth century.

Rather funny incident in Russia shews
how easily red tape may sometimes be un-
tied by skillful hand. A surgeon was
hastily summoned to care for four men
injured by an accident in a town in the
interior. The only railroad train to start
soon was for freight only, and the physi'
clan was told that he could only be
admitted as an escort to living freight. He
hurried to house near by and bought q
rooster, which he carried upon the train,
and was permitted to proceed, the require
ment of the rule being ful6 lied.

The LORDS PRAYER.-A maiden

her hands breathed fervently forth: ssOu1

agony of grief, gazed on her child, sleep.
ing her long, last sleep, smile wreath.
ing her soft lips, the white hands folded
across that still and pulseless heart, and
kneeling there-the living beside the
dead, she prays: "Thy will be DONE
AS the early beams of. the Orient gild
the sleeping land, a widow, with her
suffering little ones, chilled by poverty
and woe, bows at the Throne of Grace
and fervently prays: "Give us this day

his loved and loving boy goes forth from
his paternal care to brave the cold
frowns Of life, kneels beside him on the
eve Of his departure and pleads: "Lead

him from evil, for thine is the kingdom,
the power and glory forever. Amen"

A writer in the Gaulois is bold
enough to comment on what he calls
"the truly surprising resemblance of the
Prince Imperial to his august mother"
This is hit at the stories circulating
in Paris as to the illegitimacy of the
