BLED BY BEAU HICKMAN.
The Latest Characteristic Story of tho
Polished Fraud,

"When l first came to Washington in
1S47," said Colonel de Arnaud, the we'll
known Russian, al put up at the old Ma
tional Hotel, and Immediately sought the
acquaintance of Henry Clay, to whom l
had letter of introduction from one of
the highest Government officials at st.
Petersburg. l found Mr.. Clay in his pri-
vate rooms at the hotel, and after long
talk with him we strolled into the lobby
of the hostelry. I could speak very little
English, and, having very foreign ac-
cent, Immediately attracted the attention
of Beau Hickman, who was one Of the
'hangers-on' around the place. He ap-
preached me in great dignity, and said
with the courtesy of Frenchman:
"'You are stranger here? l believe
you have just arrived from Russia
ayes, sir; ! have Just arrived from the
capital Of Russia
"'Well, SIR continued Hickman, it is
customary for strangers arriving here to
give me money.
"The air of the man and the extreme
earnestness with which he spoke impressed
me that he was head tax collector or a
passport censor like we have in Russia, and
l presumed that the immediate payment
of any demand he might make was neces-
sary. / noticed Mr.. Clay, who stood only
a short distance from me, smile blandly as
he watched the interview which Hickman
was holding with me- Finally l said
How much must l give your
"It is customary said Hickman, to
give me from 81 to S.
~ thought that would show myself
princely, and Immediately placed a s. coin
in the mans hand and turned to Mr.. Clay,
who expressed astonishment that | should
have suffered myself to be bled as | had.
Greatly to my surprise Hickman ap-
preached Mr.. Clay, and, making the most
profound salaam, inquired after his health.
/ thought l would clap the climax by ask
ing Hickman to take something at the bar.
He declined with great grace, saying that
he did not drink, but said that he would go
in to the counter and propose toast. This
is what he gave us:
Here's to the American eagle and to the Russian
bear,
Ones got the feathers and the others got the
hair;
Put them together and they will make pair"
