Mrs. LIE Vert.

Few Southern women have enjoyed a
wider reputation for social and intellect.
ual accomplishments than Mrs. Octavia
w. LIE Vert, who died near Augusta, Ga,
on the 18th inst. She was born in
Georgia about 1920, and was a grand
daughter of George Walton, one of the
signers of the Declaration of Independ-
ence. Her father was Secretary and for
a time acting Governor of the Territory
of Florida, and her childhood was spent
in Pensacola. She had remarkable
linguistic talent, and learned the CLASH
cal tongues, as well as French, Spanish,
and Italian. When twelve years old,
while on a journey to her native State,
she met Washington Irving, who was a
fellow passenger in the stage. The ac-
quaintance thus formed ripened into a
friendship which endured to the close of
Mr.. Irving's life. The winter of 1833-34
was spent in Washington, and, girl as
she was, Miss Walton was interested in
the Congressional debates, of parts of
which she made admirable reports, to
which Messrs. Webster, Clay, Calhoun,
and others were in the habit of referring
to see how their utterances read. In 1886
she married DIR. Henry S. LIE Vert, a
physician of Mobile, and made that city
her home. Her receptions were among
the great attraction of Mobile life. She
afterwards visited Europe twice, and
met with good deal of attention abroad.
Her Souvenirs of Travel and other publ
cations have enjoyed good degree OF
popularity.

Oll7. Hotel Failures.

Says Burleigh" writing to the Bos-
ton Journal: talked yesterday with one
of your leading hotel men. l asked him
how 1t was that so many hotel keepers
in New York failed. About five in one
hundred has escaped financial ruin. He
replied Two things destroy hotel men
our leases and outside operations. 1t
is either feast or famine with us. Our
expenses are the same whether it blows
high or blows low. We must lease our
premises, or we will be turned out in
the cold. Rents run on whether the sea-
son be good or bad. I have one hun
and fifty guests in my house and can &C
commodate comfortably from three to
five hundred. My house has to be as
fully manned when half full as when
crowded. My rent, fuel, servants, are the
same. My profit comes in from the COM
pany that is over certain point. The
leases that destroy us destroy the great
mercantile houses. Those enormous
rents that do not come down when bust
ness is dull. There is constant pres
sure from hotel men from without. Ii
they have balance in the bank from
twenty to thirty thousand dollars it is
soon known. Every device is laid and
pressure brought to bear to induce them
to invest. There is a strong temptation
to lease and run outside hotels, and to
control this or that watering place. Few
men have the capacity to run more than
one hotel at time.
The Somerset press. [volume] (Somerset, Ohio) 1873-1977, 1877-03-22

Edhem Pasha, the new grand Vizier,
is not good-looking person, if we may
trust his portraits. Two little eyes
turned up, lively and cruel; lips fine
and pressed together, prominent cheek
bones, following out about a thin nose
two large bitches which accentuate a
perpetual grin; a chin whose acute
angles are outlined under sparse beard,
and terminating face strikingly lean
and yellow; person who resembles a
combination of the cat, hyena and
vulture. Otherwise he is Greek Tur-
keyfed. He was boy ten years of age
in 1922, when the Turkish hordes OF
Mahmoud II ravished the beautiful
81 and of Chios. He was taken as slave
to Stamboul, where he was sold. From
harem to harem he went until attached
to the seraglio of the famous Chosrew
Pasha. Chosrew discovered the
diabolical intelligence of his slave and
conceived an affection for him. He freed
him, and sent him to Paris to the School
of Mines, where he was entered with 9
strange name, and he finally became
tutor of French to the young Sultar
Abd-ul-Medjid. He afterwards rose
rapidly, became Minister, ambassador
and is now Grand Vizier.

HOW WE GROW OLD.

A broken toy task that held away
A yearning child-heart from an hour of play
A Christmas that no Christmas idols brought;
A tangled lesson, full of tangled thought;
A home-sick boy; a senior gowned and wise;
A glimpse of life, when 10 the curtains rise
Fold over fold
And hangs the picture, like a bsundless sea
The world, all action and reality
So we grow old.
A wedding, and tender wife's caress
A prattling babe and parents life to bless
A home of joys and cares in equal part;
A-ureary watching with heavy heart;
And Deaths dread angel knocking at the gate,
And Hope and Courage bidding Sorrow wait
To loose her bold;
new-made grave, and then brave return
To where the fires of life triumphant burn
So we grow old.
A fortune and gen'rous need of fame,
Or direful ruin and tarnished name;
A slipping Of of week and month and year,
Faster and faster as the close draws near;
A grief to-day, and with to-morrow's light
A pleasure that transforms the sullen night
From lead to gold /;
A chilling winter of unchanging storm;
A spring replete with dawns and sunsets warm,
So we grow old.
Old to ourselves, but children yet to be
In the strange cities of eternity.
