An Eccentric NoblemRn.

The Duke of Portland is the most
eccentric of noblemen. so far as
society is concerned he is dead to
the world. He surrounds himself
with an atmosphere of mystery,
which no one, peer or commoner, is
permitted TO penetrate. Even his
own solicitors, the managers of his
enormous estates, are never allowed
an interview. Five years ago the
Dukes annual income was upward
of $500, 900, and since that time it
has very considerably increased.
His Grace has never been married,
and has little or no faith in wo-
mankind. His ruling passion
is architecture, He is forever
putting up new structure on his
estate, and constantly employs some
thing like 800 workmen-masons,
smiths and ioiners. The old Abbey
of Waldeck, where he constantly
resides, is approached by subterra
mean passages only. There are more
than fifteen miles of tunnelllne
leading to it. When the Duke
appears in London, it is under a hat
OF unusual height, and long, old
fashioned wig reaching to hi'
shoulders. Wet or fine, he never
stirs ont without an umbrella, and
his trousers are invariably tied NJ
below the knees witha piece of com
mon twinc lie never answers :
letter, and although member OF
four London clubs - Boobies
Brooks, the Travellers and White
he never goes near them.

The Bryan Appeal doesn't seem
to know what TO say about Col.
Lang's letter. Is in doubt whether
it is mistake or the very thing.
To help him out we remark: That
a high officer in government has a
dual character, public and private;
what he might do with perfect CON
sistency as private individual, he
could not do at all as an officer, be
cause the dual character ,cW not be
separated by those who judge the
act, although there is no reason
why it should not be perfectly easy
to do. The position is not changed
when we find Col. Lang at the head
of great non-poli,ical force, like

The scandalous memoirs of George w."
are likely to appear very soon in book
form. They have been most skillfully ad.
vertised. Handbills have been freely cent
throughout the country, Offering q reward
of El000 for a certain book printed in
London many years ago concerning men,
Der of the royal family. The hanabills
claim that only one copy of the book is now
in existence. Such large sum offered for
the seeming purpose Of suppressipg it.
naturally excites curiosity, which will
doubtless be gratiaed-far fifty certs-in
the appearance Of . yelDwcolored novel.
Like the Ross child epidemic, discoveries Of
the book have commenced. Louisville,
Kentucky, is the first village to shake the
English throne. A young lawyer there
claims to have the second-han volume.

of the State in making the decision. Even
if the opinion of the committee should be
that the board erred in it's view of these pro.
visions of the law, it would not undertake
to reverse the decision of the board, but
only to urge their view of the law in aid of
such conclusion as they might come to on
the question of the intention of the board
in its action.
We respectfully submit this question, to
say the least Of it, is not free from diff.
Guilty, and the board is entitled to the bene-
tit of the doubt in behalf Of their decision.
In passing on this question, the committee
will recollect that the decisions of the board
were not in all cases in favor of one party,
nor were their rulings, and we submit that
the rulings of the board against the Repub-
lican counsel, holding they would punt the
vote where the essential forms OF law had
not been complied with, unless fraud or in
timidation had been shown to have been
practiced, was clearly illegal, and if they
had held differently it would have greatly
benefited the Republican side.
Besides, we submit the evidence before the
board would have fully justified it in throw
ing out the entire vote of St. Martin and
Lincoln, where the forms of the twenty
sixth section had been complied with, and
which they refused to do, on the ground
of intimidation, and tho evidence before
the committee fully sustains that view.
The Returning Board can not be justly
charged with partiality, injustice, or cor
rupt motives in their action.
Respectfully submitted,

THE LEGISLATURE YESTERDAY.

eesate. ,..-
After the morning business had been dis
posed Of, Senator Weber introduced res0-
luton, which lies over under the rules.
declaring the seats of the eight absent
Democratic members vacant if they are not
in them in five days from and after the
passage of the resolution. The resolution
provides that the Governor shall be inform
ed Of the vacancies thus created and re-
quests that he shall issue his proclamation
calling special election in accordance with
law to fill said vacancies.
At one o'clock Senator Twitchell called
for the special order of the day, which was
the report of the Senate Finance Committee
on House bill No. 90, substitute for House
bill No. 4, an act making an appropriation
for the payment of the mileage and per
diem of the members and salary of the
officers and employees and contingent ex-
penses of the General Assembly, ETC., for
the year 1875. The bill was amended 90 as
to make the sum appropriated $3.50 IN
stead of $l39,00O, and after considerable
discussion all of the amendments recon-
mended by the Senate Finance Committee
were adopted, and the bill passed its second
reading and will come up to-day upon its
final passage.
Senator Whitney suoceeded in adding
the following proviso to the second section
of the bill: Provided, however, that Sena
tors and Representatives shall receive
mileage and per diem only from the day of
their qualifying as required by the consti-
stitution and laws of the State.
On motion of Senator Anderson the vote
by which the above amendment was adopt
ed was reconsidered aud the section adopted
a. it originally stood. .l.- 80
The Senate did not adjourn until FIVE
O'Clock, the most of the session of yesterday
being occupied in discussion upon the ap-
propria ton bill. saf'
The Senate adjourned to meet again to-
day at 12 M.
House Of Representatives.
Chief Clerk vigers called tho House to
order yesterday morning, in the absence Of
Speaker Hahn, and called Mr.. Matthew'S to
the chair. During the calling of the rol
the Speaker entered, and Mr.. Math ews re-
sumed his place ON the floor OF the House
The call of the roll failed to disclose a
quorum. After sitting an hour without
doing anything. Mr.. Lowell rose and said
that he understood that the Representatives
from the Red River parishs were before the
congressi onal committee, and it would, con-
sequently be impossible to obtain quorum
for some time. He therefore moved that
the House adjourn till to-day at twelve
o'clock. The motion was carried and the
House adjourned.
