A Remarkable Man Of New Hampshire.

Hon. John Elwyn, who died in Ports
mouth on Sunday, a. previously noticed,
was q noted character in New Hampshire.
To his many fGe qualities of head and
heart be added an 6ccentyicity which was
marked indeed. Although scrupul0usly
neat in bis dress, he wore clothes of tue
same pattern for over quarter of . century.
with disdaiu the building of railroads md
like enterprises, remarking that ''cace All
New Hampshire was q beautiful park
which modern improvments had ruined"
1t was nothing unus-si tor him to
start off for q Rvrning walk of from
fifteen to twenty miles, and he made sew
eral iouraeye from Portsmouth to Phila-
delphia on foot, disdaining all conveyance.
On one occasion, after returning from q
pedestrian trip to Philadelphia, he immedi.
ately retraced bis stepe, giving as a reason
for 80 doing that he had forgotten to bring
. clean shirt with him. At church he was
excessively Independent, as elsew here, sit
ting while the congregation stood, fire.
He inherited largo landed estates in
Portsmouth, and was never engaged
in any business, but throughout his long
life enjoyed his property, his leisure and
his books. He was never married. He
was charitable and benevolent, but chose
to exercise his feelings in his own way,
and to choose his subjects himself. He
had the tastes of q scholar and gentleman.
and the means to CRAFTY them. As He
brew scholar he had no superior, and was
walking encyclopedias of knowledge.
He published two or more books for
his own library, refusing to allow
others to have copies, and insisting
on the destruction of printers proofs. One
of the works was volume of original and
selected Spanish poems. Mr.. Elwyn being
master Of that and other languages. He
always voted with the Democratic party,
and was elected q member of Governor
Pages Council in 1888. He was esteemed
and respected by all people, and Ports
mouth will miss the familiar form which for
more than half century strobe along her
streets. His age was seventy three.

Congressman Morrison Again.
The Washington correspondent Of the


Chicago Inter- Ocean says:
Morrison Frustrated himself before his
Confederate masters to-day. A pension bill
was up in the House, the claimant of which
had a singular history. He had brother
IN the Confederate army, but bis family
were Unionists. The brother was taken i'll
and the claimant went through the lines to
conduct him home. The Confederate au-
thorities would not let him 90, go the claim
ant volunteered to remain as hostage in
his brothers place, and the sick man
was permitted to leave the lines Two
weeks later the claimant deserted the
rebel army, joined the Union army. was
promoted to Q captaincy for gallantrv. and
received severe wounds, for which he asks
a pension. These facts were stated, when
William K Morrison. formerly colonel of
the Thirty.ninth Regiment Illinois Volun-
teers, rose in his set in the House and de-
clared that any man who would desert the
Confederate army was q ecOundrel and a
traitor, and did not deserve pension. This
brought the funny old veteran, Martin j.
Townsend, to his feet who made some re-
marks about emitting Union army records
from the Congressional Directory. Morri-
son sprang toward him, and asked il he re-
ferred to him. Townsend told him he
referred to Union soldiers who were ashamed
of their record, and he might apply the re.
marks wherever they would fit.
