ANCIENT TRoY.-Thc alleged discovery of
the site of Troy by DR.. Scbliemann, has led to
a spirited controversy. 1t is acknowledged that
the ancient city found by him is not the tradl-
tiona site of Troy. |, is also said that the lat
ter was so eficctually destroyed that it would
be impossible to identify its remains. o. he
other hand that Dr. Schliemauu has unearth-
ed some old city long buried and forgotten is
undoubted Near it also the course OF river
supposed to be the Scamandcr can be traced.
Walls like the massive walls Of Troy still re-
MAN. Amphore, goblets, iewelry,, antique
vases, curious relics Of pottery, and the house
hold utensils of people of great antiquity have
been obtained. The sites Of three different
cities can painly be traced, and one at least Ct
these cities suffered severely from fire. Whether
it is the Troy of Homer, or some city unknown,
Dr. Schliemann deserves great credit tor ms
perseverance and research. and his name will
be coupled hereafter with Lay ard, Botta, aud
others. Baltimore Gazette

A NOBLE PERUVIAN. miles from
Demopolis, on French creek, Alabama, ferry
was once kept by gentleman whose elegant
manners. commanding appearance, and splen-
did eyes attracted the attention OF all who pass
ed that way. The man was Colonel Nicholas
Raoul, who had accompanied the Emperor Ma \,
poleon in his Punishment to EIba; W he1 thG
Emneror left that island, it is said that Colonel
Raoul commanded his advance guard Of two
hundred grenadiers In Alabama Colonel
Raou! was 50 poor that he f1rried passengers ss;
scene Of his daily toll, in an humble cabin,
lived his wife, and children. Madame Raoul,
who had once been warehouses, and also
maid of honor to Queen Caroline, under King
Murat, was brilliant Italian beauty. From
the glitter of royalty, with its robes of velvet
and its beds of down. she had turned aside to
share her husbands fate. No wonder the
traveller gazcd upon her quecnly form with
reverence, or that one felt bonorcd at being
ierried across the stream by the llustrlous
Colonel Raoul.
