Mr. King is not a profane man and wcnld not reiterate the expression of tho Yanderbilt referred to above, that he thinks from the oldest man in-Edenton, in the Albemarle section, and perhaps in North Carolina; born, we think, in 1811. But his age is not the mo3t remarkable thing about him. He is more remarkable for his activ ity, his eprightliness, his geniality, his interest in the present, and for his recklesness. He is an amateur blooded horse fancier, breaks young colts, conducts two lasge farms in Virginia and North Carolina, is a high stepper, and walks without a cane. But, strangely, he bids us not put his name in the Economist. Why, we know not. But he orders it, and "mum" is the word for us.
