. The Monthly Gossip" in the October
number Of Lippineoas Magazine con-
tains this capital story:
Perhaps the most brilliant converse.
tionalist that Virginia or the United
States ever produced was the late Lyttle-
ton W. Tazewell. Unfortunately tor bis
reputation as to consistency and hrm-
ness of opinion, his mind was 80
capacious and we'll stored that it was
impossible for him not to see all sides
of any subject on which he converted
and hence it was not always easy-ln-
deed, it was often extremely difficult
for his hearers to ascertain what his
real opinion was. In illustration ofthls
peculiarly OF Governor Tazewell, the
following anecdote is told:
When the notification trouble was at
its height, Mr.. Calhoun sent William
C. Preston to Richmond, to sound the
first Governor, Floyd. father Of John B
Floyd, Secretary Of War, under Blu.
chansn, as to what might be expected
OF Virginia in case South Carolina be-
came involved in conflict with the
Federal Government. The question
being one OF great Importance, and
Governor Floyd having the utmost con-
fidence in Governor Tazewelfs Judg-
ment, the latter was summoned to the
State capital, and the conference took
place in the Executive Mansion at night
soon after supper.
Mr.. Tazewell, being called upon for
his opinion, began. A stream OF bril-
liant and forcible words poured from
his fluent lips, enhancing and delight
ing his two auditors. At the expira-
ton Of an hour, Governor Floyd ven
tured to interrupt him: "Your opinion,
then, is"-
wait a moment" said Tazewell.
Diversing from the line Of bis previous
remarks, he corruscated for another
hour as forcibly as before.
1t was then Preston's turn to inter-
cept-snd il possible arrest-the flow oi
talk.
1--WE may conclude, then, Mr.. Taze-
we'll, that you hold -
"No, not at all. You quite misap-
prehend me-" Taking another point
Of departure, he went on from hour to
hour, zigzsgging and worm-fencing at
each interruption, until at last broad
daylight flooded the room.
"Bless my SOUL" said he, looking up
surprised, 1T ia morning! Floyd, if you
will give me q bowl of water to wash
my face, and julep, | will lie down
tor an hour or two to rest myself; and
Tonight, if you choose. we will resume
our conversation. | am afraid have
not made myself quite clear to either Of
the gentlemen"
The water and the julep were duly
brought, and the fluent talker went up
to his chamber.
Floyd and Preston remained staring
at each other for a long time in pro-
found silence. At length Mr.. Preston
said: "Hsve you any idea what Mr..
Tazewell's real opinion is"
"None whatever. Have you 7?
"Not the remotest conception. Doyou
think he has any opinion"
"Most certainly. He has every opin.
ion that any man ever had or could
have on this subject, and great many
more besides. But what his final opln-
ion will be no living man, not even
Tazewell himself. will ever discern"
The conversation" as Mr.. Tazewell
was pleased to call it, was never re
sumed.

A Sins MAR and Mysterious Crea-

A singular and Mysterious Crea-
ture,
Who has been cared for on the Poor
Farm at Deeripg, Me-, for more tLan
twenty years, and has been the subject
Of frequent newspaper paragraphs, died
at that place on Monday. Who be was
or whence he came, is a mystery.
Twenty-two years ago the people in one
portion of what is now the town OF
Deering, were puzzled to find their
cows dry when driven up at night. The
soap-grease buckets were robbed, and
shelled corn stolen from the bins. No
amount Of watching disclosed the theft
until one morning late in the fall,
woman, on going to the barn
to milk, discovered a repulsive
human being in the hay-mow.
The long black hair had grown close
down to bis eyes, which were sharp and
piercing; both feet had been frozen and
be dragged himself along on his hands
and knees. He could not give any &C.
count of himself. and though be had
the organs of speech and the intelll-
eence to use them. had scarcely ever
spoken, coufiniug himself to the mono
syllsbles "Yes," mo" and Don't"
For over twenty years, while he has
been on the farm. all efforts to get him
to speak or give any account Of himselt
have failed, except one. He was sub
ject to fits of uncomfortable anger,
which would last several days, yet in
the most violent paroxysms OF rage
he refused to speak. When punished
for some Of his filthy practices he
maintained bis silence. He was unable
to work, and lived more like q beast
than q human being. In the hottest
davs of GUNNER he would be in his
deep bunk, burrowed in q pile Of bed
clothing, and it was only by vigorous
measures that he could be forced out
of bis rest. II was the custom Of the
keeper to take him out daily into the
open air in summer. and put him under
the shade of Q great tree. About four
weeks ago, a. be was being carried out
for his usual airing. he uttered the
word England" The keeper asked
hum If be cams from England, and he
replied ayes." "Would you like to 20
back tbere7' asked the keeper. "Yes,"
wss the answer, and he refused to
reply to any more questions. Since
that time not Q word escaped him.
1t is suppoeed he was brought here
by some vessel and turned adrirt. The
last two or three weeks he has re-
maiued curled up in his bank, and al
thoush his meals were served to him
regularly they seemed to be untouched.
The physicians were puzzled to ascer-
tain the nature OF the d,sease, If he
had any, and were unable to prescribe
for him: and % that singular creature
died and never divulged the secret Of
bis life. Those Who knew bim best say
he was not idiotie, but were unable to
determine whether he vas insane or
was the subject Of . remarkable per-
vsrsity Of disPosition.
