We are almost exhausted- mentally as well as 'physically, though we have not been iu London scarcely a week; Theuuusual sights and incidents that have crowded so thick and fast, have rendered our thoughts about, as scat terldg as the waves we crossetl. And by the way, we might as well coinT mence:witli the ocean, that served us so rudely.- It was a hard mauler but a faithful servant. We remember ih Our boyhood days our first lessons in smoking.

To-day, we visitetl the British muse um. We cannot tell all that is there. It would be easier to tell what was not there ;: though ,we . don't' know. We saw.the relics of antiquated ruins, il legible heirpglypics of crumbling statuary, busts of heathen Kings, and Egyptian munimiesjof all descriptions and ages, that reached far back into that period whereof the historic "memory of man runneth not to the contrary." We could hardly believe that it was real. Here were the dead who liad lived thousands of years ago, and slept : unconscious of the shocks of earthquakes, the tmmn of wars, the diKt'oluiion of d vim-sties.' the downfall of enipires, and "of the daily events, tramping around there. The whole museum is full of curing i ties-and relics that India's gold could not purchase ; treasures of infinite beauty and variety ; and when" in after years we roll back the pages of memo ry, we ' never expect to find a leaf of more joy and verdure upon which the mind's eye can feast. Though there are things of beauty and objects of interest without number here, still a sense of loneliness will occasionally 8 teal over you. When you walk the streets foh whole days, vd ',,0k m VAln fol one familiar faeo among the tens of thousands, -yon have passed, and reflect that between you and the homeof your nativity there frets many an angry billow, you experience a Ivei ing of the most painful desolation im aginable.

Sonietime during the day, however, an oflicer of the garrison happened to call at Col. Black's house, and over hearing the abuse of the warlike Nea gle, made a sortie in the direction of his house. Neagle was stid pacing-up and down his piazza-'with his Win chester riile, uttering loiind curses against-the "hoys in blue" The- (' ricer hailed him, and tol.l hi n .11111 him.-elf aud come ii:i : Im t .-ibe he the officer) sms gni 11: (u s t him.

"Never mind," said the officer, "go and arm, your self and come ou: like a -man. 1 have heard of your abuse, and I in tend to shoot you." But the ex-comptroller didn't like the looks of things, and retired iu good order. His deliri um lasted all day. Governor Scott and R. II. Kir', and several others of his fiends came to see him aud tried to quiet him ; hut none of them being armed, Neagle refused 10 ne' iiuieted, and wiis not finally pacified until he was lined by the Mayor for firing his rifle in the st.eets. l am told that Mrs. -Neagle was badly hurt, nd that she absolutely refused to return home until the mad fit' of tier hus band passed off. TOOK K EAGLE. An excuse is to be found for him when the State of his finances in con sidered. His is a chequered career. He went into the office of the comptroller-general of the State in 1808 without possessing a dollar to his name, flinnum H.s saMary was $3,000 per But he lived frugally, so to speak, and left the office in 1872, worth at least $3(Xt,(XX. Out of his salary he had managed to purchase several fine houses ;-;atjd handsome equipages, built a $'J0,DOO bridge across the Congaree, and had salted down many thousandsoT dollars in good se curities. His first misfortune came in the overthrow of the Blue Ridge Scrip. NEAGLE HAD "LOADF.D IV." heavily with the article, and had ad vance money to-Mows to secure bis nomination for Governor, with the promise by Moses that his father, the chief justice, would decide the scrip tq be valid: It is even said that the decision was written out. But, when Moses was elected, the Governor for got all his promises. At all events, the Supreme Court decided against the scrip. This, together with his ad vances to and indorsements for Moses, well nign ruined the ex-comptroller, and he soon found himself flounder ing toward bankruptcy. This natural ly angered him, and hence his de monstration on the Governor last summer. After several attempts to shoot "our native young Governor," the latter became badly demoralized, and finally conqueied a peace by ap pointing the naughty Neagle to the position of treasurer of Richland County. -As I have already stated however, the appointment came ' TOO LATE to afford more than a temporary re lief. The taxes were nearly all paid in, and the commissions were very small. It is said that the now bank-rup-comptroller has pawned nearly all his stock in the Neagle brigde across the Congaree, and i3 still in & chronic state -. of im'pecnniosity. How these troubles will end it is impossible to Bay. But there is a scheme hatching to manipulate the approaching' con vention, which promises to heal all the I breaches and restore the fallen fortunes of the scripholders. Of this, more - Anon.
