An Aristocrnt of the Hill Country Of

rsPorte Crayon =" In Harper's Magazne.J
SQUIRE Stubble is an ariStocrat of the
ancient carbuncle type, and his career justly
entities him to all the regards accorded to
the proudest of our Anglo-Norman ancestry.
In his youth, bold, illiterate, and unscru'
pulous as q teudal baron, he entered this
country penn!less adventurer aud squatted
on a territorial domain, which by dint Of
club aud the common law (up here) he has
successfully deieuded against all corners. BY
a chivalric coup dc main he won \ fair and
willing bride from an ugly rival and
unwilling parents, and with sturdy per-
severance has wrung independence from
the more Grabbed and unwilling soil o.
his sQuttter sovereignty. After the estab-
lishment Of property and family came dig
nity and honor. SiubbIe was made magis-
trate, and the champion Of fist and thumb
nail became the buiWark of the law. Hence
his grammarless good sense lifted him to a
seat in the State Legislature. At Richmond
our hero found q world he didn't understand,
and that understood him as little. His first
care was to establish himself at quarters at
once luxurious aud economical. Fried liver
for breakfast, and your boots BACKED every
morning, whether you would or not, all for
three dollars week. Barring IN occasional
treat at the Governors, be didn't circulate
much socially, and in the new Capitol never
opened bis mouth except to admit peanuts
or vote. A representative from the adjoining
county, with less brains and more tongue,
did all the talking for him, and in return for
the service commanded his steadfast and
uuQueS;ioning support
Having seen the elephant S!ubbIe was salts.
ii d, and could never be induced to try it
again. "He had feasted on fried liver, had
Ills boots BACKED, drank whiskey with the
Guy'ner aud shot ia the Legislature"
Thereafter he became q recognized power in
county politics and the Influential patton of
candidates of Office, turning bis back on the
rough heads, and favoring such as knew
Latia and had pretensions to gentiiity.

day in regard to the provisions in the
will of the late Timothy Kirby. General
Banning, a son-in-law of the deceased,
states that the bulk of the producing
property is devised to the two sons and
two daughters, and that himself, Dom
Piatt and Mr.. Kirby's two sons, are
made executors OF the will, and these
executors are instructed to provide for
five young children, one of the famous
ssLady Francis" one of a Mrs. Potts,
and three of Mrs. Turney. One OF
these is q mulatto.
At.the probating of the will yesterday
DR.. Thomas Wood, one of the witnesses
to the will, and the medical attendant Of
the deceased, was examined. He be-
lieved, from what he had seen and heard,
that Mrs. Francis exercised such an
undue influence over Mr.. Kirby that he
was not capable of making just and
equitable will as to his legal heirs. The
other witnesses to the will are Geo. w.
Phillips, John X. Green and Isaac Ell
rett.
We discover that several deeds fol
real estate, from Mr.. Kirby To Mary
Francis, and from Mr.. Kirby to Timothy
Kirby Francis, son of Mary Francis
have been put on record at the Record
er's office. Other testimony In the cas-
| is being heard.
