{ Cur readers are entirely familiar
with the unfortunate. events which
have accompanied the advent OF this
son Of Field Marshal Massen's into
America, and they need not be but
briefly recounted. He occupied u
high position in Europe in different
capacities, but when The ''fayorite
child of victory" as Napoleon sur
named his father, lost favor with the
sovereign on account of his rapacitY
and cruelty, the family lost its high.
position in the aristocracy in the old
world, and MasseRa, who was but yet
a boy, was compelled to make his
own future He received magm6-.
cent education and entered u monas-
terry, 2 Subsequently he was at the
head of the imquisition Of Rome,
where his natural Instincts of cruel
ty served him veil. Becoming dis
satisfied with Roman Catholicism, he
left the church and started OH lee,
turing tour in England, where he met
his wife. He is described as being in.
that land one of the most fastiduous
of mon. Coming to America seri-
es OF disasters befell him, which
soured his temper to such an extent
that he became cruel in the extreme,
and the Freemas0nS were compelled
to refuse him recognition and to ex-
tend IN aiding hand to his wife, who
is now a meniaI Oh First East street.
His stay in this city has been one Of
misery and so low did his circum-
stances become that he was compelled
to beg and finally to seek II refuge in
"a pvv,-house where he died of drop
sy. He seems to haze inherited all
the instincts Of his ilIustrous father,
Of whom it has been said: His pri-
yate character was stained by impu-
tatious of meanness and rapacity,
which took definite form in series Of
accusations brought against him by
the Inhabitants of Mnrreilies. Mn
poleon called him a 'robber,' and Of
fered him a present Of 100000
francs if he would discontinue his
speculations. He paid little attention
to discipline Or to the comfort of his
troops, by whom he was cordially dis
liked. Salt Lake Tribune. 8.

which the Meeker family suffered
NJ their hands only short time ago.
The qtes are kept, worry, close and al

OF all this viii be that the Utes will

ARKANSAS ETIQUETTE.

Last night two men from 'Phila-

hotel in this city. After using all
kinds of epithets, one Of the men
thrust his hand behind him as though
about to draw a pistol, and then tool,
it away. The quarrel terminated
without damage to either party. An

back his long hair, and, advancing to

A STGRY OF CLAY.

Here is an anecdote told me by my
father, who was II great admirer of
Clays, and who was an eye witness
of the scene. It has never appeared
in print, at least to my knowledge,
and for its truth can vouch. When
Henry Clay ran for the first time for
Congress he was billed to address an
assembly in the open Dir. A great
crowd had convened to hear the young
orator, and conspicuous above all
arose the lall form Of Jim Burnim, a
rough, with an unenyiable reputation
and a great personal enemy Of Clay's,
owing to repeated defeats sustained
by him from Clay in his political as
pirations. ;.5,a. lt 'l.l FIJI.
When Clay had commenced his
address Burnim placed himself di-
rectly opposite him in the crowd and
annoyed the speaker continually by
Interruptions and personal remarks,
but chiefly by Kissing every good
point Clay produced, No matter
how smooth and lucid his stream of
oratory might be or how forcible his
argument, Burnm was ready at the
fnis with his insulting hiss. This
continued until Clay could stand it
no longer, aud when, after a particu-
lorly pmgent thrust at the mortali-
ty OF the anti-Federalist, ho was gree.
ted with the indomitable silent howl
Of Burnim's, he turned savagely to
him and with flashing eyes delivered
to him this cutting speech:
| "Mr. Barnim,n said he when your
last hour, has come, and your evil,
sinful soul has sought thedarl shades
of he'll; when standing there before
its smlphorous gates, your spirit,
eharred with sin, awaits admittance,
Satan, glowing in his crimson maies-
ty shall ask his vassals gathered
around him who it Is that stands out
side his portals, and, when he's told
that you are there, he'll rise and, with
a look of dark disgust, cry to his wai-
ting menials: $50, take the slave
and burn him till he hissI'-Ex. s,,f
