THE death OF GENERAL ABE. BUFoRD will
bring the tear OF genuine sympathy to many
manly lid. The General was a noble speci-
mea OF the generous Kentuckian-warm-
hearted, impulsive and true as steel. Born
OF wealthy parentage and highly connected
reared in a community where bold daring
and rapid living were the mode o! the
social leaders, he early imbibed that TASTE
for field sports and magnificent coursing
which characterized the genuine simon
pure Ksntuokian OF his generation. He has
owned and bred some of the finest horses
the world has ever known, and the turf will
find his loss irreparable. He was a man Of
large stature with a heart proportionalely
big, no. one pulse of whose vibrations was
ever contaminated by low or vulgar in
stinct. He enjoyed life whilst he had the
meant and sunk under the blighting breath
OF poverty. Broken-hsarted, but not en-
FILTERED, he felt the play OF life was passed
and with his own hand dropped the curtain
on its tcenes.
