Benedict Arnold's Last Years.

The last years of the life of Bene-
dict Arnold were probably the most
unhappy that ever fell to the lot of a
man. The British we're williugt to use
him to promote their own plans and
to pay him for his disgraceful serv-
ices, but everywhere he was held in
such contempt and ,scorn that for
years he scarcely ventured to appear
in public. Before his treachery he
stipulated for fortune in cash and q
commission as major general in the
British army.
He got both, and soon spent the
fortune in speculation while the latter
did him no good, as no officer of the
army would serve under him; and,
although his talents and bravery were
unquestioned, he remained to the end
of his days a general without a com
mand, even at the time when the
British government was sorely pressed
for officeys and men. In 1893, dur
ing the French war, when the coun-
try was anxiously gathering all it's
resources, he applied to the Duke Of
fork for command, but was re-
fused.
He went home in despair and said
to his wife: "They will not let me
find a soldiers death" He never
rallied after this blow, and soon after
his mind appeared to wander. He
ordered his continental uniform to be
brought, and put it on, III Guiding the
