general appearance indicated that he
thought himself about as good as the best,
was yesterday promenading Camp street,
evidently thinking that his condescension
in showing himself was duly appreciated,
and he smoked . cigar that might have
cost five cents before it was spoiled. Few
earthly items seemed of sufficient import.
>uce to demand his notice; even finely
dressed ladies were Of little moment to him.
for as he passed such one he blew from
his broad mouth clold of picayune smoke
which floated directly into the lady's 1sce'
almost suffocating her. His royalty did not
notice the incident. but others did, ana no
was lucky in escaping deserved kicking
