A Child of Fortune.

The death is announced of Lord
Bloomfield, formerly for 20 years ambas-
sador at Berlin and Vienna. Dying with
out issue, his title is extinct. He repre-
sented almost the last instance of what
was 60 common in England up to the
last century, a man originally winning
fame and fortune purely by court favor.
George Nv. was devoted to music, and
no mean performer on the violin. One
day at Brighton the gentleman who was
to have made the fourth in theevening's
quartet was prevented by some very
serious cause from attending. The king
was expressing his vexation at this con-
trc'cmps in strong terms, when a gen
tleman present suggested that he had
lately heard young Irish officer then in
barracksat Brighton perform charmingly
and that possibly he might take the place
of the defaulter. The king was delight
ed at the idea and instantly sent to
secure him. Lieut.. Bloomfield came,
played, and conquered. The king took
a violent and very enduring fancy for
him, soon appointed him to valuable
post in the household, and Bloomfield
ultimately raised to an Irish peerage
remained his most confidential compan
ion to his death. The son, just deceased
was appointed a page of honor, then had
a free commission in the guards, and ul
timately entered the diplomatic service
and in 1853 was raised to the Englist
peerage..

Oochrane and Goldsmith Maid.

We have heard great deal from east
ern travellers of the wonderful attach.
ment which exists betwe en- the horse and
his master in Oriental lands, but we
doubt if ever anything more interesting
has teen told than the following story
of Goldsmith Maid: Recently, Charles
Cochrane, who was for many years her
faithful groom, arrived from California,
and wishing to see the grand old trotting
mare and her colt, called on Mr.. Smith,
her owner, to obtain his permission to
visit Fashion Stud Farm in New jersey.
Mr.. Smith accompanied Cochrane to the
farm, and on arriving there remarked:
Charley, the Maid is very Jealous of
her colt, is very cross, and will permit
no one to approach it." Cochrane
arranged that Goldsmith Maid should
hear his voice before she saw him, and,
although they had not seen each other
for two years, loud whinny presently
assured the visitors that the mare had
recognized the mans voice. Cochrane
next showed himself, when touching
turf, VINO 1of i.v1:s-: wonfd not allow
any one to approach her, making use OF
both heels and teeth if it was attempted,
rushed with a bound to her old friend,
forgetting even her colt, and rubbed her
head upon his shoulder, her nose in bis
face, played with his whiskers, and
showed by her every action that her
heart was full of joy to see him. Di-
rectly the colt came up to them, and the
old mare was delighted when Charley
placed his hand on the little fellow.
When Cochrane left the place the mare
followed him to the gate, whinnying for
him even after he had passed out of her
sight-NeaD York Times.

and d'being = man of fine address and edu.
cation, had: no difficulty in convincing
me that ewas escaping from q German
literary institution, where he had Wit
messed, as second, q fatal duel. He said
he had money, and showed me several
hundred pounds in notes of the Bank of
England. He was willing to be consid-
cred stowaway, in order that his name

Gould I help him to get out OF the ship
at Rio7 l readily promised and gave
him for G35O in Bank of England notes
Mexican dollars and doubloons. He got
out OF the ship all right at Rio, and 1
carried my notes back to England, where
l found on attempting to deposit them
in nasbank, that they we're base counter
feits, and that my'intellee etnaI Istbwaway
was an escaped burglar and forge1, and
that had become bis victim,"
