ONE SPOILED CHILD.
The Wasted Life of Payne Todd, Son of
President Madison's Wife.

The Wasted Life Of Payne Todd, Son of
President MadisOn's Wife.
From the Richmond Dispatch.
Mrs. Madison, besides being the widow OF
President, who was also a wealthy plan
ter, possessed some property in her own
right. and her only son was originally a
man Of large fortune. 1t was this son that
brought her to ruin. He was the child of
her first husband, and his name was Payne
Todd.
During the presidency of Mr.. Madison he
lived in the white house with them, a
pretty, engaging lad, with pleasing talent
for mImicry.
Everybody liked, courted, petted and fat
tered him. When older he took TO no seri-
Gus occupa ion and finally went to Europe,
where he spent many idle years, wasting
his fortune in extravaganza.
On his return home he was no better. He
did, indeed, buy an estate in Virginia, but
at that time an estate in Virginia was of
little value unless it was vigilantly looked
after by the owner.
And so he wasted his life and his sub
stance After spending the whole of his
own fortune he allowed his mother to waste
the whole of hers upon him, for she con-
tinued to the last to be dotingly fond Of
him.
She was obliged to sell Montpelier, and if
congress had not bought from her her hus-
bands papers, she must have been wholly
dependent on charity. The last words she
uttered were, my poor boy"
Two years after her death her son died Of
typhoid fever, carefully nursed to his last
moment by the old servants Of the family.

BACK TO MATERIAL THING.
WASHINGTON, July @


We are away from it. We have again
gone over the "Beastly and Odlous" road.
We are reeking with SCOT; we have suffered
from the usual bad service, and ws have
seen young man In the drawing-roonl car
disporting himself in his shirt sleeves, prct-
ty and cool, but not exactly the thing, one
would say, for drawing room car. Then
we have had the pleasure Of listening to the
conversation between an irate man and the
conductor; the irate man was permitted to
buy ticket to get off at a certain station;
never was told until he got on the train and
it was started that trains didn't stop at that
station, and he would have to get off at a
junction and take another train to where
he wanted to go; he argued and talked to
the conductor. Would you have argued
and talked? Would l? would have stopped
that train, if they had sold me ticket, at
the place my ticket was to, if 1 had to pull
the bell that meant Down brakes" or "Go

hotel should be delusion and a snares Peo-
Pile are no longer satisfied to go away from
home and be comfortless. And nobody is
going to be satisfied with being put off in
nine by twelve rooms, and denied the privi-
lege of bath without going downstairs for
it. YOU'RE thinking TO yourself: "Oh,
WELL she Is prejudiced. 1t didn't happen to
please her. and s. she is talking about it in
this way" Ny friend, when | first wrote
this, there was mote in my eye-a hot Gin
der, that got there from the engine of the
"Beastly and Olious" road, and which
might have ruined one black eye, but,
thanks to good doctor, it was cut out from
where it was cutting in. and now | can see
clearly, and know that do not put down
aught in malice, but as the truth. And
the moral of it all is don't be led astray by

MAN VERSUS A RAILROAD.

That man said that the difference in time
was Of great importance TO Kim, and that he
was going to complain at the general office,
and that he was going to write letter 10
the newspapers, and the conductor looked
at him aud laughed, and said: well, what
difference does it make what you are going
to do! The road will run just the same, and
be just as B. & o. 2" And that is just what
makes me feel that Americans ought not to
celebrate the Fourth of July-they are not
one-half as Independent as the British peo-
pie they claim to have beaten-if they are
willing to stand such Outrages as these.
For my own part, l am glad | got my rebel
blood to the surface and when left New
York, declined 10 ride on the "Beastly and
Odious" road, and came just as far as
could ON the one named after the Quaker
gentleman, who was the father of his state,

OLEoMARGARINE is not as popular
at some of our leading hotels and
restaurants now as it was before some
seizures were made last week. This is
abominable stuff to put on the table
under the guise of it's being good but
ter. The law requires that all such
stuff be labelled, and If served at table,
that due notice be given. But it seems
that the hotels and restaurants that
used it did not think it worth their
while to notify their guests of the quail
ity of butter II, thev we're using. OF
course explanations have been in order
ever since the authorities seized the
dirty stuff, but the public will have
their opinions about these hotels and
restaurants just the same. We nope
the authorities will not stop at the few
seizures they have made, but will push
ahead, and show up the proprietors Of
all such places that use this dirty lard
for butter. When the proprletors find
that a great deal of free advertising
follows a seizure. they will be more
careful in future.
