Capt. R. E. 3. Hewetson, fomerly res.
ident of Columbia, died last week in
Charleston. Though native Of Ireland,
and the son of o British officer, Capt.
Hewetson was one of the first voiunteers
IN the late war, and went with
Gregg's Regiment to Virginia, and par
ticipated in thirty battles without receiv.
ing wound. At the second battle of
Manassas he COMMANDED his company
with conspicuous akiil and daring, and
was afterwards commissioned as Quarter.
master of the regiment. Later in the
war he was, for considerable time, ac-
ting Quartermaster of the brigade.
1t was while he was Regimental Qaur.
termaster that Capt. Hewetson, with the
inspiration of the born commander. or.
ganized small force which repulsed the
enemy and saved Gen. Lees army. The
circumstances are these: Capt. Hewetson
was ut Williamsport, Immediately after
the defeat Of the Confederates at Gettys-
burg. The Potomac was TOO high for
fording, and the reliance of Gen. Lee was
on the poatoon bridgeH. AS soon as the
Confederate fell back at Gettysburg, q
strong body of FEDERAL cavalry was
pushed forward towards Williamsport,
where there was believed to be no con.
siderable number of Confederate troops.
In truth, there we're no soldiers there ex.
cept some stragglers, and the sick and
wounded with the wagon trains. There
seemed to be nothing tc prevent the enc.

The Last Of the Vespucci.
Atlantic Montbly.l


Atlantic Montbly,I
A decided sensation was created at
Washington during the Van Buren,
admin stration by the appearance there
of a handsome and we'll educated Ital-
ian lady who called herself America
Vespucci, and claimed descent from
the navigator who gave his name to
this continent. Ex-P President Adams
and Daniel Webster became her
special friends, and she was o o a
welcome guest in the best society. In
a few weeks after her arrival she pre-
sented a petition to congress asking,
first, to be admitted to the rights of
citizenship, and secondly, to be given
"a corner of land" out ofthe public do
main ofthe country thatbore the name
of her ancestor. An adverse report,
which was soon made, is one of the
curiesities of congressional literature.
1t eulogized the petitioner as "a
young, dignifed, and graceful lady,
with a mind of the highest intellect
ual culture, and a heart beating with
all our own enthusiasm in the cause
Of America and human liberty" The
reasons why the prayer Of the petit
toner could not be granted were
given, but she was recommended to
the generosity of the American peo-
pie. 1.-THE name Of America-our
eountrv's name-should be honored,
respected and cherished in the person
Of the interesting exile from whose
ancestor we derive the great and
glorious title" A subscription was
Immediately opened by Mr..
Haight, the sergeant-at-arms OF
the senate, and judges, congressman
and citizens wed with one another in
their contributions. Just then it was
whispered that Mad. Vespucci had
borne an unenviable reputation at
Florence and at Paris, and had been
induced by a p%ecuniary consideration
to break off an intimacy with the
| Duke of Orleans, Louis P~hillippe's
oldest son, and come to Washington.
Soon afterward the dukes younger
brother, the Prince de Joinville, came
to this country and refused to recog.
nize her, which virtually excluded
her from reputable society. For
some years subsequently she resided
in luxurious seclusion with a wealthy
citizen Of New York, in the interior
Of that state, and after his death she
returned to Paris.

ton / desire to know is if the hat
business of this season is so far salts

Mr.. Crane-I can't speak for other
dealers, but viii say in reference to
my own, that / have done a large
business this season. I presume that
this unusual run is owing to my great
speciality the dollar hat, ofwhich have
sold 5000 in the last fifteen days.
ROporter-Do l understand you to
say that you sell all goods for 81?
Mr.. Crane-0a, no; l sell hats as
low as &c, but | make a specially ofsell-
ing all irst-class stylish hats, fur, felt
and straw, for 81.
Rep.-Is your store located SO as to
get a good share Of the home, as well

Mr.. Cob, yes +; being at 344 Main,
only three doors south Of Union, which
is one of the leading streets in the
city, | think my store is better To-
Gated for the trade than any other
dealers in the city.
Rep.-Do you expect to continue
permanently in the business?
Mr.. C,-Certainly as Ibelieve that
all hat wearers appreciate a good hat
at low figures, and | think l can for
years to come, as in the past month,
draw an immense custom.
The interview was here inter
rupted and closed by the arrival Of

fhlladelphla Times.I
Victoria l., queen of England,
empress of India, lady OF the isles,
countess of Rothesay, duchess of Kent,
is sixty>two years old, and her birth
day was celebrated during twenty-four
hours by booming of guns and popular
festivals. The queen is the only SOW
ereign upon whose dominions the sun
never sets. The guns that saluted
her anniversary at sunrise at the
Horse Guards" in London, were
the echoes Of others which had begun
four thousand and more miles east
ward in her Oceanica domains. The
most splendid empires of antiquity
we're mere provinces compared to the
limits and millions this mild English
woman rules. She has governed forty
four years, or within one of the great
Elizabeth, whose reign is regarded as
the golden age of English power. But
the England Of Elizabeth, mighty as
were its achievements, was a small af-
fair as compared to the realm of her
successor. There are twice as many
people in London to-day al there were
inhabitants in England and Scotland
when the virgin queen deied Spain,
the then mistress Of the old and new
world. The armies that Elizabeth
rode down in coat and mail to review
at Tilbury Fort, when the armada was
expected, would not equal the NUM-
cipal forces Of London, and the fleets
in the Solent and the channel would
not compare with the London mer-
chant marine. Elizabeth was,
however, more powerful
monarch than Victoria. She made
her ministers go on their knees when
approaching her, and a not ~unfrequent
experience Of some grave statesman
was the reception ola sound box on the
ear from the virago. She cut the head
off when a man offended her, and Be@
questrate6 properties with royal care
~lessnesss. Her successor finds her lines
cast in grotesquely different places.
The utmost evidence of displeasure
that Victoria ventures to display is
the exclusion Of statesmen from her
royal presence, as in Gladstone's case
when the Duke of Connaught was
married. Great changes have come to
England since the house of Tudor
ruled, but the historian who writes a
century hence will have even greater
to record if, as the Prince of Wales
some times jokingly admits, he will be
the last king of the isles.

A Philadelphia engineer has in
vented, it is claimed, a machine by
which the power Of the tides can be
utilized. Numerous plans have been
nroposed for the accomplishment of
tbis most desirable end, but only un-
der exceptional conditions have they
been practical or economical If the
new device can harness the tide in an
omen channel so as to convert any con-
siderable portion Of the vast power
into working force the inventor will
rank among the great benefactors Of
humanity. Emerson says somewhere:
"Hitch your wagon to a star" A de.
vice for utilizing mechanically the
fresh tides, as they sweep along our
shores, would come mex to that, since
it would enable us. through cenverters
and carriers of electricity, TO hitch
our wagons to the sun and moon.
