Surroundings aud singulsIly exc ting incidents,
not only possesses an almost fascinating inter-

every auditor. Mr. Mayo's Dagy Crockett is an
artistic creation which needs to be studied
more than once Each representation brings to
light ns w beauties and delicate touches of hu.
man psf1re; SO subtle combination of art aud
nature IS seldom presented before the foot

ton is its quietness and snbdued earnestness,
its entire freedom from exaggeration and rant.

A Fortune thai Will Probably Remain i'm
England,

DR.. George III. Chadwick received letter the
other day stating that an association had been
formed in New York, of members of the
Chadwick family, descendants of Sir Andrew
Chadwick of England, to send ever an agent to
London and see what prospects there were, if
any, Of securing the great estate left by bin,
and asking the doctor to contribute.
Sir Andrew Chadwick was a cavairyman of
the days of Queen Anne. He saved the
queens life when her horses ran away with
her, and was kpighted for the service. She
also m 4de him grants Of landed pr opefty in
LondeD, where Regent street and other valu-
able estates are now located. This Sir Andrew
died without issue. The Oldest son of his
fourth brother would naturally have become
the heir to the property, and his descendant,
Philadelphia gentleman, considers himself the
coming man if be can prove his claim satisfac-
torlly. Still, as there aressome three hundred
millions uncalled for, the Philadel phian is will
ing TO count in all the other defendants no. SO
nearly related SO himself. The probability is
they WON'T get the ducats.
