Of medlnm height, broad of shoulder, deep chestsd and brown haired and brown eyed, with a countenance brave and frank. he was reaarded at the Adonis of the bouse. His ares of milk white cassl- mere; ruffled shirt , and deeo Byronle collar gave warrant to the poetic ap praisal of the women.- lint hla col leagues set a different estimate upon him. To them he was known as a wall trained lawyer, a close student. 71 eg man much gives to philosophic research and meditation, one of learn ing ana gravity unusual at hi age, true, courageous, but of a seriousness bordering upon melancholy. lit was a forceful debater, though bis years were but 24, and bis utterances were always beanr with sincere respect Though himself a slaveowner, be bad from motives of humanity eloquently but unsuccessfully opposed tbe bill which enacted: .' . 'That from and after tbe passage of this act no slave shall be emancipated in tnis state." His speech bad been published In full by tbe leading Journals, and its perora tion was long .remembered. "Can It be," De exclaimed, "that In this part of Christendom, In a time of profound peace aud tranquillity, an American legislative body will from tbe black' cloud of slavery tear the narrow fringe of hope and In Its stead Inscribe by statute tbe frightful legend seen by Dante over the portals of belli Can It be that enlightened citizens win forbid tbe reward of liberty to tbe slave who serves tbe state? Will the law making power deny to the master tbe exercise of tbe noblest virtue of bis nature by prohibiting him from confer, ring tbe boou. of freedom upon, the Slave who has stood between bis life and tbe knife of the assassin or safely borne his -fainting wife through the flames of the burning mansion or plunged into the down sucking Missis sippi to bring back the fair haired child to the frantic mother? Can It be that tbe flower of civilization , will make unlawful that kindness to a faithful human slave which It approves to a dog or a horse? 1 cannot bejleve It But If I mistake tbe sense of the house then let me say that the logical conse quence of this measure will be tbe sti fling of moral growth In tbe master, tbe removal of Incentives to loyalty In the slave; the one must become more barrow and cruel, tbe other des perate and ferocious; tbe sense of Jus tice of other communities .will be sbocBed and their righteous anger will be provoked; decs da cannot fall to bring some frightful catastrophe en our state as tbe fruit of this unholy measure. I protest against K.

Oakfell passed tbe greater part of the evening reading In tbe captain's state room on the hurricane deck. Returning to the cabin at 11 o'clock, be found his constituents from Avoyelles at tbe ta ble nearest tbe bar. Tbey were not piaylug, but cards, Ivory chips and half drained glasses ef liquor were en the table. None of the chine was on the side where Latiolala sat Borne few were In front of Dr. De Boux, and the remainder, la many stacks, were before QuUlebert , '. .The young man est at a distance from tbe three, bu not so fsr that tbelr conversation was not audible to him.

"I could have sold him for 7S0. But that Isn't It I never tried to sell him, I didn't want to sell blm, and, although be was B0 years old when you shot blm. I wouldn't have sold blm for $2,000 cash.

Forcing a lie, he-ordered three more glasses of whisky, and when these bad been tossed off bade bis companions good night and retired. Tjulllebert and Dr. De Rous strolled to tbe hurricane deck to soothe tbelr nerves with cigars before seeking sleep. Oakfell repaired to his stateroom soul sickened by what be bad witnessed.

Therefore I never thought that $2,000 could have at all repaid me for bis loss. Moreover, It would have been the act of a good neighbor In you to have complained to me of any offense Baptlste bad given you and allowed me to correct blm. Instead of that you shot blm dead." ' ; "I admit that" said QuUlebert "but when be struck my pointer dog with that ox whip and I aaw-tbe blood red den the white skin of tbe poor brute 1 was so enraged that I couldnt help shooting tbe Infernal negro down In bis tracks, and you would have done tbe same.1 "But bad not tbe dog bitten the negro before be struck It with tbe whip?" Latiolals Inquired. "I have beard something or that sort," said QuUlebert curtly. ; "It was a fact" Insisted Latiolala, "and tbe wounds Inflicted by the dog's teeth were found upon the dead man's body. But as we never quarreled about that" Latiolala. continued,, "let's not quarrel now. ,0' course, wben you de stroyed my ' property you . owed me something, and, ' since we couldnt agree upon the amount there was nothing to do but leave It to a jury, So I brought the suit I was willing to ?h4 young man wit at a dutnne from abide by tbe award or the Jury, al though It wss only $1,300: but you bars see lit to carry tbe matter on appeal to the supreme court and pro long this only cans of difference be tween as." . . !

A German arastronomical publica tion gives the following account of tbs origin of tbe menu: At the meeting of electors in Beirensbunr in the year 1489 Elector Henry of Braunschweig attracted general no tice at s stats dinner. lis had a long paper before him, to which hs referred every time before he order ed a dish. The Earl of Montford, who sat near him, asked him what he was reading. Tbe elector silent ly handed the paper to his inter rogator. It contained a list of the viands prepared for tbe occasion which tbe elector had ordered the cook to writs out for him. The idea ef having sucb a list so pleased the illustrious sasembly that -tbey in troduced it each in bis own house hold, and tines that time tbs fashion of bavin a menu has spread all ever the civilized world.
