authorizes the use Of troops upon the
call of an Indian Agent. After full
discussion, it was decided yesterday
that general call from the Indian
service would be lawful, and it will be
done and the Emigration into the Terri
tory checked by force. No credence
is given by the Washington authorities
to the reported discoveries of silver
mines in the Territory, and the story is
believed to have originated in a ldesire
to fill up the Territory with white
people, for the benefit Of the railroad
companies.

Aug. Belmont's Family History.
The Romance Of the New York Banker
Early Life

The Romance Of the New York Bankers
Early Life.
The marriage of August Belmont to
Miss Perry daughter of the Comodore)
was in its day a deeply interesting social
event. Prior to that Belmont had no
standing. He was merely known in Wall
Street as agent for the Rothschilds, while
aside from his office he was merely a fast
man, whose money went freely in the
most disreputable manner. He still car
ries his marks of this early career in a
lame leg, the result of a pistol-shot re-
ceived in duel occasioned, it is said, by
an intrigue. Up to that time, indeed,
Belmont was considered rather an adven-
turer. His true name was ''Schonberg,"
which he changed to Belmont on his ar
rival here, and his family connections
were unknown. Hence for New York
belle to marry such man could not hut
create sensation. The wedding was
preceded by the conveyance to the bride
of fifth avenue establishment and $780,
900 in frst-class securities, and it was not
long before the Belmonts we're received
among the creme de la creme.
In this manner the Jew Schonberg,
having 1enounced his Hebrew preferences,
became leader in the more dashing ele-
ment of New York society. He is the
only Jew who has shown special love
for horses, and his name has long been
Identified with the American turf. His
son, Perry Belmont, is one Of the leaders
of young society, and recently his daugh-
ter was married in good style, the cere-
mony being one of the most brilliant ever
witnessed in Newport.
Belmont is one of the large number OF
Jews who has renounced his national
faith, and yet he retains some Of the an.
cient customs. His wife attends the
Episcopal Church, but when death en-
tiers his family he obeys the old Hebrew
custom of closing his picture-gallery for
year. He is now about three -score-and-
ten, and his wealth is estimated at a
million. Rather. strange, though he has
been Wall street man for so many years,
he has never been drawn into stock spec
ulations. No one has ever Of Belmont's
name in any corner or street operation
among bulls and bears. He bas confined
himself closely to his original speciality,
and has built up an immense banking
business, which will be grand inherit
ance for his sons. His married life has
been one of reputable character, and it
may be said ia no case has the daughter
Of a naval officer done better than in the
instance above referred to-

YOUKNOW AND THE DOG,

One night, far wearie of the yrksome day,
A man, all haste in his homeward fight
Along the sidewalks picked his darken'd way,
And cursed the ruts, the street-lamps, and
Down on his head his hat he pul'd on tight;
His stole was in his pockets, and his pace :
Grew slower us the gas-lamps mock'd his
Whyles shyned the stars upon his awkward
race
"Did mortal man" he said, "cer live in such Il
s.! place?" -. ~rg
It fortuned, out Of the nearest gate,
With salvage voice, full greedy and elatc
Seeking what man he might nip on the sly.
Eftsoones the man belated he did spy,
And rushed to have at once him by the leg,
But to the pray whenas he drew more n.y.
The man reached the hyp pocket of his star
board de leg.
And with the sight amazed, the dog began to
beg. -:
Low down he crouched at the man his feete,
And would have licked them with his fawn-
ing tong,
And warmed it to him chearefut right along,
Whyles startled Quiet heard his troubled
"By josk,s;,, , the man he sayd, well nigh to
Scared was by thy fearful clamorous yelp;
And will dyft thee once, whyles I have
breath,
Thou NANCY, untaught, noisy, clamorous,
useless yelp!"
With that he draweth back his dexter foote
And much the dog did marvel at its size,
Broad and full long, and gnarled like roote;
With loud alarme, he flies the nygt with
cries,
And like dove before faulcon files.
But that SWIFT foote itsweeps the air along
And just about amidships lifteth him;
And raiseth him, with shriekes, the clouds

Mr.. Young, of the New York Herald,
in his account of of the visit of Gen. Grant
to Calcutta, says:
The native gentlemen and princes OF
high rank were presented by the Viceroy
to Gen. Grant Some of these names
were the foremost in India. Some we're
deposed princes, or descendants Of de-
posed princes Others were Brahmins of
high caste; some rich bankers and mer-

Dude lives in Calcutta, on an allowance
of 100000 year. He does not come
near the Government House, partly be-
cause he is so fat that he cannot move
about, except in chair; more probably
because he is kind of state prisoner on
account of his supposed sympathies with
the mutiny. The old king spends good
share of his income in buying animals.
He has collection of snakes: and is fond
of a peculiar kind Of pigeon. A pigeon
with asblue eye will bring him good for

Romance in Real Life.

Odessa has just witnessed the attempt
ed suicide of, Nine. Pashkoff, one of the
most talented of modern Russian novel
lists. Her career, as sketched by the
Golos, is singularly varied and full of in
terest. Her father was a Bahrin or serf-
proprietor Of the old school, the owner of
seven thousand souls, and a descendant of
the ancient Tarter princes. He was OF
an exceedingly despotlc temperament,
and brought up his daughter according
to masculine principles, teaching her to
wrestle, to fence, to use the sword and
revolver, and to ride astride on horseback,
like man. ...
At the age of sixteen she wrote her first
novel, ''The Princess Vaira Glenski,''
which at once took the public taste, and
made her name famous among the elite
of Moscow. A year later her father mar
ried her ofthand to a man she did not see
previous to the night of the betrothal,
and it is not surprising to learn in conse-
quence that at nineteen she was already
divorced and living alone in her fathers
Moscow mansion. Here she created one
of the most fashionable salons of the old
capital, and in the very zenith Of her pop
ularity married Pashkoff, the millionaire,
and retired for twelvemonth to his min
ing estates in the Urals. Her second
husband was then appointed Russian
agent in Egypt, and she accompanied
him thither, and before long had the
rare and singular honor Of dining alone
with the viceroy. firing of leading the
Russian colony at Cairo, she set out on
Journey through Syria and Palestine, not
combining herself, like ordinary lady tour
lists to the main roads, but roaming
alb out in the most unsettled districts.
On her return to the Mediterranean she
went on yachting cruise in the Levant,
vis1tsd Italy, darted off afresh to Mt.
Lebanon, aud equally unexpectedly made
her appearance at the end of a year at
Mentone.
She now wrote a lumber of novels, and
became a corresponding member Of the
French Geographical society, a connec-
ton which led her after while to pro-
coed on journey round the world. This
terminated in the winter. and about the
same time she lost her colossal fortune
Separated from her second husband, for
sakcn by her friends and reduced to OK
IRENE poverty, she retired a few days ago
to room in one of the meanest hotels in
Odessa, and attempted to take her life.
By chance a button on her dress caused
the bullet to miss her heart and bury it.
self in her shoulder, whence it since has
been extracted. The tragic circumstances
investing the hayward descendcnt of the
Tartars have created great sympathy
among the admirers Of ''The Princess
Vaira Glcnski," and should Nine. Pash-
koff recover from her serious wound, a
fund will be formed to place her once
more in a position above penury.-Lon-
