a good deal to the value of the mine
1T takes only five or six men to ex

MISCELLANY.

No HYDE Estate AFTER ALL.--The claim
ants of the HYDE estate, of whom there are
several in Baltimore county, Anne Arundel
and other sections of Maryland, seem to have
come to grief--or rather to have been chasing
a Pickering will.o'-the wisp, which has now
ESCAPED them altogether. The Maryland
heirs, like those of New York, CINCINNATI and
Hamilton county, Ohio had organized An as
ISOLATION for the purpose of employing lawyers
to root out the estate from its supposed nd
ING place in the English Court of Chancery.
The New York Sun contains long story of
the work of Hon. Thomas A. Logan, OF Gin
cinnati. who was sent TO England by the
Hamilton county heirs to hunt up the estate.
Mr.. Logan has submitted bis report in which,
after stating that be was assured at the
American consulate that there was no such
estate, he goes on to relate his search Tor 1t,
aud says.
stThe whole field was untrodden. found
1t labyrinth which | WAS compelled to ex-
plore in darkness and ignorance, without a
compass, and with distractions and confusion
on every side. did explore it, nevertheless,
and now that have done so, am reluctant
ly and regretfully forced 10 admit that all
they told me was entirely correct, and that
nv search was improbable, although not use
less After weeks of conscientious and as
sidious labor, under the most trying clrcum-
stances, | have thoroughly satisfied myself
that there is no fund in the Bank of England
or tile Court Of Chancery in the name OF Hyde,
or belonging by descent to any member OF the
various Hyde associations
In closing his report, Mr. Logan says 10
show how successfully this business OF claim
ing large estates is carried on, would state
that while l was in England another Ameri-
can lawyer arrived there To claim another es-
tate. valued at about three hundred millions
of dollars. There was also an English assoc
citation existing to recover another equal
amount and upon my arrival here, in the first
newspaper | saw, was an announcement con-
cerning another supposed estate, about equal
in amount and similar in circumstances to
yours and the others. 1t is evident at once
that the sums claimed for recovery in these
cases would alone bankrupt any nation on
earth. While my mission has not been pro-
ductive of pecuniary profit, yet think the
result has been beneficial. 1t may now be
definitely taken as a fixed fact that the So
called HYDE fund does not exist, except IN
fictions of traditions and the hopes of the ex-
pectant recipients. 1t was wo.th, however,
much more than the personal outlay incurred
by the individual members of this association
to have settled once for all, in an autborita-
tive manner, such perplexing and delnslve
anticipation. And what is true OF the Hyde
fund may be asserted generally to be true OF
all the similar funds, trusts and estates which
are periodically and persstently advertised III
this country, and which are kept before the
public for the sole benefit of mercenary specu-
lators."

a SAD STORY or a WRECKED LIFE

The most thrilling and sadly suggestive
temperance lecture is the sight of once
noble, talented man left in ruins by intoxi-
eating drink. A Washington paper tells of
ragged beggar, we'll known in the streets OF
that city, who once held an important COM
mand in the army, having been promoted, Tor
personal bravery, from calvary lieutenant
to nearly the highest rank in military service.
One night recently, when he had been too
successful in begging liquor to safe his cray
ing, and while lying helplessly drunk in the
rear part of Third street saloon, some men
thought to play joke on him by stealing his
shirt, and proceeded to strip him.
Underneath his shirt, and suspended by
string from his neck, was a small canvas bag,
which the men opened and found 1t contained
his commission as brevet major general, two
congratulatory letters-one from General
Grant and one from President Lincoln--a pho
tograph of little girl, and curl of hair--a
chestnut shadow that doubtless one day
crept over the brow of some loved one.
When these things were discovered, even
the half drunken men who found them felt a
respect for the mans former greatness, and
pity for his fallen condition, and quietly re-
turned the bag and its contents to where they
found them, and replaced the sleeper clothes
upon him.
When reporter tried to interview the man,
and endeavored to learn something of his life
in the past few years, he declined to commune
cate anything.
He cried like child when told how his
right name and former position were ascer-
tained aud with tears tricklng down his
cheeks, said
"For Gods sake, sir, don't publish my de-
graduation, or my name, at least, if you are
determined TO say something about it. 1t is
enough that know myself how low / have
become. VIII you promise that much? 1t
