clared very mistaken Judgment, and
then entered upon some flno discussion Of
the rarely observed poetic elements OF Vol-
taire. As he went on he was gradually
warmed into enthusiasm; he contrasted
Yoltaire and Rousseau to the far greater
honor Of the former, reaching at last the
generalization, "Rousseau is a paradox;
Voltaire is truth 4" During all this his
voice was like soft organ usic. His face
changed color with his glow of thought.

utter an OCCASIONAL word of assent, and even
the little children sat absorbed looking up
into their grandfather face with As much

Maxeppa in Texas.

A few days ago this paper gave an ac-
count of a wild horse being seen In the
woods in Milan county by two boys with
a man strapped to his back. The boys
gave chase but the horse dashed off
through woods and thickets and was
soon lost to all pursuit. Now it comes to
us that the horse has been seen near
Round Rock with the man still dashed TO
its back, and that last Saturday an at
tempt was made to capture the animal,
but it was again too fleet for its persuers.
Our informant said that q large party
was being gotten up to make another eff
fort last Monday, and that they would
go prepared to shoot the horse. When
and where the man was strapped to the
horse is not known, and neither is it
known how he met his death. Its per-
haps more probable that he was killed
and then dashed to the horse by his muir
ders in order that the remains might be
carried far away from where the deed
was committed. We shall endeavor to
get further information regarding this
strange Mazeppa-like atfair.-Tsras Err.

4 Young Genius Dies.


In the death Of Wiley G. Galloway,
appeal, a bright and beautiful light faded
away. He was wounded last Christmas
day by the explosion of toy cannon on
Madison street. His nerves were so
shattered by this accident that other dis
eases were superindnced which termi-
mated liz his death yesterday evening.
This youth had not reached his nine
teenth year, but his career was as sngu-
lar as any hero's in the widest romance.
His sutierings for eight months, as well
as his whole young lie. was q
drama of pathos. Books alone were
his companions. He had read so vari-
ously. observed so infinitely, and re-
tanned so tenaciously the results of his
reading and his observation, that he was
never at loss for topic, and never
failed to invest what he discussed with
original beauty and interest. He was
familiar with every publication from
the dime novel to the classical authors.
Books gave to his solitude sOlace which
society could not afford, and everything
that passed through his mind seemed to
receive literary colofing and fragrance.
So profound was his love of literature
that had he lived in the days of Atticus
he would have said with him "that if left
to himself he would rather choose to sit in
his library. beneath the bust of Aristotle,
than fill the high positions of honor"
He met death like philosopher. He
never complained or murmured beneath
the WEAKNESS and pain OF lingering dis
ease. Under the teachings Of Rev. DR..
Stainback, he was baptized in the
Cumberland Presbyterian church. after
which he discussed the mutabflity OF
earth and the grandeur of eternity with
beauty and sublimity that was marvel
Gus. His young life closed with the
splendor of the setting sun. Amid the
consultations and hopes of Christianity
his young life slowly and certainly ebbed
away until the waiting spirit dropped
the tabernacle OF the flesh to take on the
robes of immOrtality
