plorer will present him to our readers in q
new face. The portrait of him familiar to
most people is that of 6 worn, thin looking
young man with white hair and a black
mustache. He showed in every feature the
perils he had passed.
Here, however, we have a handsome, well
fed man, who looks as if the world went very
well with him. Let us hope it does. There
is nobody in America who tries to belittle
the services Stanley performed for geog-
raphy, 1t took the savants of Europe to do
that. Stanley has just arrived in his own
country, to make a tour of lecturing this
winter. May he be successful. He is q
brave man and true. Besides that, he is a
newspaper man, and these deserve success in
their undertakings if anybody does. They
mostly work hard enough. 1t is said Stan
ley's hair turned from white to dark again
after he got rested from his Congo e~xplora-
ton.
A romantic history is Stanloy's. An orphan
asylum in the Old World is hardly the place
whence genius and fame would take their
rise, yet thence starts Stanley. He was born
in Denbigh, Wales, and his original name was
John Rowlands. He had a right to change
it II he wanted to, and he did so. Stanley
was tho name of a New Orleans merchant
for whom the boy worked. When he was ID
|. years old he left the orphan asylum in Wales
and started out to shift for himself, He
shipped as cabin boy from Liverpool to New
Orleans, and thus he first cane to America.
Few men have had so adventurous a life.
| During the war he served both in the Con-
Tolerate and the Union armies. Then he
| wandered away 10 find Livingstone, and in
another journey explored the Congo, Those
are bis W greatest exploits. After he found
Livingstone, Queen Victoria presented to the
nameless orphan Welsh hoy a gold stuff box

Yesterday afternoon a glorious old row
occurred near the railroad track at the
foot of Ferguson street, which drew to the
spot hundreds OF people. John McClos-
key was the chief actor in the play, with
r. n. Wind and a party whose name was
not ascertained as end men. McCloskey
had not quite gotten oven the effects Of
the quasi holiday on Wednesday and
while in this condition of mind he met
Wind, with whom it seems he had some
difficulty at one time when Wind was on
the police force. He struck Wind a blow
or two, and being a very large, powerful
MAJ and, as some say, having a rock or
brick in his hand, the effect of his blows
being such as to knock Wind down aud
out. The other party alluded to inter
tered at this point, but was soon laying
away out omewh here in another part of
the railroad grounds. Several Others had
arrived upon the scene by this time and a
general rush to the spot Of nearly every
body in that part of the city occurred. and
two or three others got laid out before the
affair was oyer with. Officers Nolan,
Smalley and D%eitrick were soon on the
ground and made for the Infatuated indi-
vidual at once, and although they had a
severe tussle with MeCloskey he was
finally overpowered and marched to the
calaboose, followed by a large crowd. He
will be judicially interviewed to-day.
