Daniel Webster as Boy at Table.
The following story is told in a
communication to the Boston Tray
eller:
General Peabody, who was by
profession a physician, was a hero
Of the Revolution, and after the war
resided in Exeter, N. II. During
the summer days he was wont to
pasture his horses back in the
country, bringing them home in
the fall. On one occasion, as the
cold weather drew near, he went to
the town where his horses were,
and asked the owner Of the pasture,
who was both farmer and tavern
keeper, to send his black horse
home on a certain afternoon. eyes"
was the leply, 81 will send my boy
down with your black horse on that
morning, sure" On the appointed
| day the General stood at his gate,
and saw it approaching along the
road, while on its back, using for a
saddle only his own coarse jacket,
rode along in his shirt sleeves, a
large, heavy, rough boy, his face
very dark, its natural color having
been deepened by the sun. On ar
irving at the gate the boy remarked
81 have brought your horse home,
sir" eyes, so | see," replied the
General, "and | am glad TO see him
here safe and sound. You must
have started early. Walk in. 0ul
dinner is almost ready, and after q
ride in this keen air you must be
hungry" The boy, Of course, nc.
cepted the invitation, and when
seated at the table proved that, like
most boys when growing, he pos
sessed a good appetite. ITeappeareC
: awkward enough, for he graspeC
the knife aud fork in his claspet
hands, with the tops of the handle
q at the thumbs, and the blade pro
truding downward from beneatl
the closed little finger. Still h
piled the Implements of the tabl
service vigorously and skillfully
and did full justice to the moor
meal. During the dinner the Gen
eral inquired of the boy what hi
name was, to which the prompt re
sponse was given, "Daniel Web
ster." ooh, yes" remarked tn
General, ''you are the son 81 81
Webster, who pastures my horses.
/" Yes,' said the boy. So it was tha
big, dark skinned boy was th
t. germ of the great statesman, who's
name in after years was destined t
C elicit the admiration of the worl
/ for his wonderful powers and learn
t, ing. How little he OWNED as h
1t looked upon the Phillips Exete
Il Academy, then great building j
e his eyes, that the day would com
u when the illustrious alumni of tba
u now ancient institution should hal

ROMANCE IN HISTORY.
Biographical sketch Of n Late Russian
Princess.
New York World ]

lNeW 1oFk NbfluJ
The last direct descendant of a roman
tically famous historical house has just
died in Saxe-Altenburg, at the age of
Catherine de Bron. Princess Of Cour-
land, Semigalle and Sagan. She was the
daughter OF the last reigning Duke OF
Couriand, was born in 1773, and in 1901
married Prince Pignatelli de Belmonte,
Duke Of Acerenza, in Naples, who left
her widow many years ago. With her
expires tlfe right line OF the celebrated
Ernst Biron, who, having been born in
1857, the grandson Of a groom, entered
at an early age the household of Anna
Ivanovna. niece of Peter the Great. and
regent Duchess Of Courland. Peters
niece was as democratic in her tastes as
Peter, fell in love with her equerry, and
taking him with her to Russia on her
accession to the imperial throne, made
him Grand Chamberlain of Russia. He
was brute and "snob" of the first
water. He looked up the coat of arms
Of the great French house Of Biron
from which the English Lords Byron
descend, and adopted both their name
and their escutoheon very much rs q
a certain eminent statesman" Of
New York in more recent times
appropriated the arms Of the great
Scotch house Of Hay, Marquises Of
Tweeddale. He became by favor Of his
imperial mistress the despot and the
terror of Russia, and the mobiles OF
Courland were frightened by him into
electing him their 6sovereign Duke.
Anna ut her death made him Regent Of
the Empire But tthe Russian aristoc-
racy, under Field Marshal Munich
conspired against and overthrow him,
and he was sent to Siberia. Elizabeth
recalled him and sent Munich to occu-
by his prison in Asia. Peter Ill re-
called him to St. Petersburg and the
'Semiramis Of the North" Catherine
H., restored to him his duchy of Cour-
land. Adversity had done for his charac-
ter what prosperity failed to do, and his
rule was SO just and mild that his son
was suffered to succeed him on his
death in 1772. This son, however, was
expelled i'm 1895, and it is this sons
daughter who has just closed her long
career as a semi-royal lady. So that in
only three lives we go back from the
reign Of Alexander H., of Russia, to the
reign Of Peter the Great!
The blood of Biron is still represent
ed in the celebrated French family of
Talleyrand by the families Of Napoleon
Louis, Duke of Taileyrand, Courland,
Sagan and Valencay, whose mother was
a younger sister Of the Princess Jane
Catherine; and Of his brother, the Mar
quis of Talleyrand- Perigord, whose
oldest son and heir, the Marquis Mau
rice de Talleyrand, married some years
ago, at Nice, Miss Elizhbeth Curtis, Of
New York.

which are to become laws on which
have to pass within the next twenty
days, but when l think Of the several
hundred others which were not passed
am rejoiced Laughter. / do not
know that I can add anything to what
has been so wisely said upon the subject
OF our commercial trouble, and nothing
remains tU'add; and inasmuch as the
Attorney General OF the Federal Gov
in a cognovit, don't see that anything
remains but to give up judgment.
when my friend asks, "What is the
matter with you?" and then, Yankee
like, answers 1t and speaks Of taxation
and abuses in the government, undoubt-
edly he put his finger on it Immediately,
but he seemed TO have the impression
that the principal source of the difficulty
was the municipal government. Now.
my fellow citizens, the Federal Govern
ment draws from this whole population
draws from the men Of business draws
from these 100000 Of people, more. far
more of taxes than the State govern
ment, or the local or the municipal
government or all Of them put
together. Applause Mr.. Opdyke,
in the Convention of 1867, esti-
mated the taxes Of the Federal Gov
ernment from the State of New York at
SS0,000 5000. Now, putting it at much
less than that. ii exceeds all the local
taxes and all the State taxes and in
that connection have the satisfaction
to announce to you that this session Of
the Legislature has kept down the tolls
on the Erie Canal, provided for all need
ed repairs and remtted $S.OOO.OOO Of
taxes that it drew from the people of
this State two years ago. tAppIause.
That naturally brings the mind to
consider u little, not only the
evils Of government but also the
remedies. IT is idle to talk about tho
abuses Of taxation unless we reduce
them. Now, at the close Of this session,
the State Government RENTS to the peo
pie S4,000,000 of taxes. Great Ap-
plausel Iquite agree with the speaker
who last addressed you Ms to the iutu
ence and power that this body Of men
can exercise over public opinion, and
over the destinies of our country,
ana il you are bold, fearless. faithful
men who will strike at the root Of these
evils, prosperity will return to us. TAP
plause. OF course, | am not here to-
night to speak q homily on this subject.
! am simply making what Down East
parson would call an application of the
sermon-the very excellent sermon Of
my friend. Laughter and applause

HARD RIDING.
A Fifty Mile Race with Mexican MUS
tangs-Timc.
from the San Francisco Call.


The tifty-mile mustang race on the
Bay District Course was decidedly sue
cessful. This species Of turf sport has
race was for $500 q side, fifty miles out,
each contestant to be allowed ten
horses, and required to change horses
every mile. The parties to the match
were HIN. Mowry andJ. =. Smith, both
men whose business is in the saddle,
and who have become Injured by years
of experience to the disagreeable firm
ness of the Spanish saddle and the un-
pleasant peculiarities of the mustang
horse.
The quarter stretch was crowded with
bucking, rearing and kicking half breed
horses. among which it was dangerous
to be safe" At three o'clock theejudges
ordered the riders up, and they set off
with promptness. The horses used by
Mr.. Smith were notably superior to
those of Mowry; but he was deliberate
in his mounts and dismounts. while
Mowry threw himself from one horse to
another almost without losing his head
way. BY this means he more than made
up for the difference in the speed Of his
horses. He was repeatedly timed, and
he at no time occupied more than from
three to five seconds in making q
change. AT the close Of the tenth mile
Mr. Smith, in attempting to mount an
evil-disposed bronco, received severe
kick just below the right knee, which
rendered him very stiff and sore. To this
mishap he ascribes his defeat With
few exceptions, Smith led to the end Of
the fortieth mile. At this stage Mowry
turned loose his choicest horses, and at
