though naturally of a most ami
able disposition, especially nm
der the assaults made upoll
his time and privacy BY
simple curiosity and literary
lion hunters, who have no posi-
bic claim upon him, would be
little short of a saint if he were
not sometimes annoyed by the
pertinacity OF uninyited guests.
Take for illustration two in
stances Three ladies, two from
Chicago, and one from Milwau-
kee, entirely unknown 10 the
poet, sent i'll their cards. They
are courteously received by him

and the hour for that meal
close at hand, but nevertheless
the ladies carried their point !;
but when it came to wishing to
be shown the kitchen the host
was fain to ring for q servant,
lest further examination might
extend to cellar or attic. An
other amusing instance, which
was related to us by a friend.
was that of an Englishman,
who, like Sir Charles Cold

seen everything, and done every
thing, and yet was terribly en-
nuied. "Haw yes, Mr.. Long

Eighteen Hundred Years after
Death.

OO0iH0C3 WiltlilS vi eacdsdtluIls
at Pompeii, says:
Among the most interesting
Of the objects found recently arc
two skeletons, one Of IL some
what elderly man: the other OF
a woman. they We're found in
Via Stabia among the ashes oi
the last eruption, evidently
overtakcn in their flight and
buried in the cinder. Accord,
ing to the usual method
to preserve the external appear
ancc Of objects, liquid plaster
was poured into the cavity,
while serving as q mould, II fac
simile of the forms was obtained
and prefectly preserved, The
statue like tolies were placed in
the Pompeii museum. While
appreciating all the horror OF
such a death and the suffering
endured, as shown by the posi-
ton, | cannot but imagine what
would have been the astonish-
ment of that man or woman
had some prophet informed
them that eighteen hundred
years after their death their
forms, and even as much OF
their garments as was not con-
sumed in the eruption, would
be placed in a museum for i'll
spection by a multitude of sight
seers ofsonle lands the existence
of which they had never dream
ed OF.
The poor woman is lying on
her face, and even the form of
her hair put up behind is seen.
One arm shields her forehead
and she is supported by the
other. Her stony limbs are
well formed, and traces of a
garment are seen passing in
folds around her. The man, al
though placed on his back in
the exhibition, when found was
turned on his side One arm
rests on his hip; the other is up
lifted. The face is somewhat
distorted, but massive and
smoothly shaven. Even the
form of the fastenings of the
sandals around the ankle, and
OF the long button higher up
on the leg to hold them, is clear
ly seen. The limbs are partly
drawn up. The skeleton of a
tolerable large dog, also recently
found, is in the Museum Of
Pompcii, his whole form pre-
served in plaster, and in the
same manner as those just men,
toned. He is lying on his back,
writhing and suffering, biting
his hind leg. The rings and
collar are plainly seen.

The average American is five
feet nine inches in height and his
wife five feet two.
Business index. (Wilmington, Del.) 1876-18??, 1876-07-22

Jean Jaques says, that when
his wife died every farmer in
the neighborhood offered to
console him with one of his
daughters; but that a few
weeks afterwards his cow hav-
ing shared the samefate no one
ever thought of replacing his
loss by the offer of another,
hereby proving the different
value people set upon their COWS
and children.

No Military Man for President.

To THE EDITOR OF The SUN-Sir: In
this mornings issue OF your paper observe that
San Francisco correspondent brings forward
the name OF Gen. william 4. Sherman rs a suita-
BILE candidate for President.
In speaking for myself, speak the sentime nts
OF hundreds OF thousands of good citizens
throughout our broad land, when say that the
people OF this country want no more military
chieftains In that exalted civil position. For
one, am free to say that never again expect
To cast NV vote for any military man for that
