A CURIOUS WILL.-ro the remarkable
papers on Curious Wills, published some
time since by an illustrated contemporary, says
Loudon paper, might be added with advan-
tage supplementary account Of the more Gu
rlouS funeral directions which those documents
frequently contain. An interesting case in
point is that Of the late highly-esteemed Sur
gcou Major Wyatt, O. B., of The Coldstream
Guards, who did such good service to suffering
humanity 10 Paris after the siege In 1871. He
desired in his will, lately proved, to be buried
in the tull-dress uniform of the regiment, in
which he had passed the greater part OF his
useful and honorable life. A Bible presented
10 him by his wife was to be placed in his cot-
fin aud these behests being recorded, the Sur
rcnp Major went on to direct that the horses
used al his funeral might not be decorated"
-plumcd and draped, We presume-iu any
manner; that the mutes and other attendants
should not wear hat bands or scarfs; that each
person attending his funeral was to wear in
token of mourning only black band of medi-
um width-crape for relatives and cloth tor
friends; that the gloves should be black; but
that each person 10 the train should wear a
camclla or other white flower in his button
hole, as it was the worthy Surgeon General S
wish that the ceremony should be as free as
possible from all gloomy associations, and to be
considered more as 40 occasion tor rejoicing
than ior mourning" Cousonant with this lead.
ilg idea was the expressed wish that 20 kind
OF widow cap or weeds should be worn by his
reIlet and no particle of Grape on the garments
OF his relations.

LIFE OF LEE AT LAST.

The work which General Lee positively de-
Glued to do for himset during his life has
been done for him by his nephew, MIR. Ed
ward Lee Ch,lde. Mr. Childe, who has for
many years past resided 10 Paris, and who was
married there few years ago to very charm
ing and accomplished lady, daughter Of the
celebrated sculptor, Baron Triqueti, has Just
published 10 French monograph on the career
OF his illustrious uncle, entitled, LIE General
Lee, sa vie ct ses campagnes. Since Lord Ma
hou published his lite OF the great Prince De
Coude no work OF equal pretenslons has been
issued 10 French from the pen of writer of
Euplish blood MIR. Childe comes fairly by bis
gifts as an author. His father. Mr.. Vernon
ChiIde, of Boston, is remembered by all who
know auythiug Of cultivated society in Paris &
quarter of a century ago, as the host of one Of
the most brilliant and agreeable salons of that
great capital. The refined and active intelli'
pcnce of Mr. Vernon Childe, with the grace
aud accomplishments of his wife, drew around
them circle of the best aud brightest men and
women of France, Nj aud Nine. De Tocque-
vile, Nj. aud Nine De Circourt, and Prosper
Merimee were among the intimes OF that circle,
ip which thoughts outshooe toiletts, and the
sparkle of repartee was more highly priced than
the glitter of diamonds. Nous avons change
tout celia. Whether for the better or not is
quite another question Though he had made
bis home iu Paris, Mr.. Vernon Childe never
failed Of loyal service to his native land. He
wa. for macy years an occasional correspondent
of the London Times, aud his letters on Ameri-
can affairs, under the signature Of "A States
man." we're invariably full Of pith and point.
They we're the letters always of patriot and
man of the world, who knew how to tell the
truth about his own country without dancing
its wardance over the heads Of other people.
Mr.. Lee Childe iuherits the tact and good taste
Of his father, and it is fortunate circumstance
that the delicate task of saying at this compare
lively early day what it would have been indie
cent much longer to have deferred saying about
the great Confederate leader, should have been
assumed by one so near to him in blood, yet so
far removed by temperament and by training
from the cuarscr passions of the unhappy strife
iu which it was his fate to bear SO conspicuous
a part, and his glory to bear that part so no
bly, alike in victory and in befeat. t.-Nee0 York
