One Of Napoleon Bonaparte'a Marshals
handed to the Emperor book from an
upper shelf with the remark, 81 am
higher than you are, sire. . Longer, not
higher" responded Napoleon.
"After all, what have | done?" be
asked on another occasion. ''Is it any
thing compared with what Christ has
done?" "They call me lucky" Meter.
mich reports him to have often said, "be-
cause l am able; it is weak men who
accuse the strong Of good fortune.
Louis Napoleon fancied himself great
General. He was with great difficulty
dissuaded from taking the command OF
the French Army in the Crimean War.
At Piombieres he said to Count Cavour:
'Do you know that there are but three
men in all Europe? One is myself, the
second is you, and the third is one whose
name Bismarck, no doubt) will not
mention.
Daniel Webster, on one occasion, in
court, was reminded that he was assailing
q dictum of Lord Camden's. He turned
to the Judge and owned it, but added,
"But, may it please your Honor, differ
from Lord Camden.
Thomas Jefferson calmly observed (of
persons interested in the study of legis.
lation and the like) e)-"They will find that
the leading and most important laws of
that day were prepared by myself and
carried chiefly by my efforts; supported,
indeed, by able and faithful coadjutors,
very effective as seconds, but
who would not have taken the field as
leaders"
Margaret Fuller is reported to have
said (when quite young happily: have
now met all the intellects of this country,
and find none comparable with my own" "
Dc. Samuel Johnson, the great lexico-
grapher, said innumerable egotistical
things. One of them was about the
Rambler" "My other works" he
said, care wine and water, but my Ram
bier is pure wine" The world has
thought differently.
Oliver Goldsmith is said to have been
jealous Of beauty even in the other sex.
When the people OF Amsterdam gathered
round balcony to look at the Misses
Hornecks he grew impatient, and said,
peevishly: "There are places where
also am admired" 1t is one of the
oldest among our odd anecdotes OF
egotism in high places that man so un-
commonly ugly as Goldsmith should have
piqued himself as described on his per-
sonal appearance. nce.--lLouisville Courier

A store-House of the Creeks.
From the Augusta Ga.) OhronicIe.


Upon the plantation and near the resi-.
dence of Col. SeabOrn touchdown as
Mill HaVen-in ScriYen county, Ga, may
be seen, in excellent condition, one Of
those structures at a remote period in
general use among the southern Indians,
and designed for the temporary preserva-
ton OF dried fishes and game. For quite
a century and a half 1t has maintained its
identity. 1t is located upon the decliVitV
of the right bank of Briar creek, in prOx-
unity to that stream, and in the midst of
beautiful forest of oak, holly and pine.
Cylindrical in shape, this receptacle has
diameter OF S feet, and is about 6 feet
deep. The excavation in the ground was
at first carefully and regularly made; and
when completed, it's sides and bottom
we're covered with a uniform layer of we'll
kneaded red clay, four inches In thick
ness. These clay walls-the interior sur
face OF which was pressed hard and smooth
are still nearly perfect. AS one looks
upon the structure. it presents the appear
ance of a huge cylindrical terra-cOtta YES
sci let into the earth.
To Briar creek, and especially to this
neighbOrhOod, did the Greek Indians re-
sort to fish and hunt. The adjac MT bluffs
and fields give token most abundant of
former and lOng-cOntinued occupancy.
Village sites may still be recognized, lit
tered with fragments Of earthenware,
flint chips, spear and arrow points, scra-
pers, and other objects of primitive man
ufacture. Even now this stream abounds
In fishes, turtles and alligators; and its
dependent swamps, at an early period,
were filed with wild turkeys, deer and
other game held in repute by the natives
Doubtless during the use of this racepta-
Gle it was furnished with a roof or cover
ing which long since persisted. 1t is prob
able that in 1t were stored from time 10
time fishes caught by visiting Indians.
These, having been previously dried, there
accumulated until the season arrived for
the homeward journey, when they were
removed and transported to the perma-
nent abodes Of their captOrs. Physical
proofs of the prior occupancy by the red
race of our region are each year becoming
more indistinct, and il 10 hoped that care
will be exercised in the preservation Of
this interesting object.

Kurtz Claims to be Able to Prove an
AHbi-Hardin's Crookedness


Ahbi-Hardin's CrOokedness.
JACKSONVILLE. FLA, Jan. 2O-Kurtz,
the alleged burglar, was seen by the
NEWS correspondent this morning, but
under the advice of his counsel refused to
talk. 1t is stated by parties who claim to
have conVersed with him, that he con-
fessed TO having lived in Troy, n. Y, and
that this same charge had been brought
against him before, but proved ground
less. He says before leaving New York
for this CITY he went to Chief Detective
Byrnes, New York city, and said TO him
that he had heard since his return from
Europe that he was wanted by the OIL
GERS, but that Byrnes said: mo, Mike,
we do not want you. / have Investigated
that affair, and there is nothing in 1t
against YOU"
Capt. Cooper, in making the arrest,
acted upon Instructions from Robert A.
Pinkerton, of New York.
THEIR BUSINESS.
Kurtz's brothers came here early last
spring and opened up large wholesale
tobacco store, representing, as agents, the
Eagle Tobacco Company OF Detroit, NJ Gu.
They have done a prosperous business
and had the confidence OF the
business community. They We're
late big fire, but lost nothing, being
fully insured. The News correspondent
interviewed one OF the brothers this
morning. Said be: "All will yet turn
out all right. 1t is merely a case OF mis-
taken identity. Ny brother can easily
prove an alibi. l wish you would say,
however, that he had no connection with
our firm beyond being a mere employe.
He only came here about four months
ago, and has been living with us since"
This statement is correct.
His wife is a very handsome young
blonde, said to be an English woman.
HARDIN's OFFENSE.
1t turns out that w. II. Hardin, arrested
at Waycross, Ga, upon the charge OF
drawing false drafts upon Herring
& Co., sale men, of New York,
whom he claimed to represent,
not only got 500 from the bank at Palatka
and the same amount from the First Ma
tional bank Of this city, but also got 500
from the Bank of Jacksonville. 1t is SAID
he is a native Of Florida and formerly
lived in Marion county. He had done
business for Herring's Safe Company, but
had been DISCHARGED Dec. 30.
