And so they are. Miss Neiison made her farewell appearance In New York on Saturday, and the Tribune sayaot it: "Since the night when Dickens with slow step and sad face, made his last exit from tbestazeof Steinway Hall, there has been no theatrical occasion id this city at once bo animated with chivalry and so touching with sense of sorrow and loss. We shall see other actresses whose powers are as distinct, who are unique in one element or another, and potent on some one line of art; we are not likely again to see an actress in whom are combined, as they have revealed themselves In her, the attributes of power, fire, tenderness, and grace. She is exceptional in this; and that is the reason her career has been one of conquest and continuous popularity." Mia3 Neiison made a very sweet little speech at the close of the performance. She is going home for a long reet and probably will not return for two years. The Washington Sunday Gazette says: "It is not known In the literary circles of America who th9 brilliant writer from London to the Chicago Inter-Ocean who signs herseli 'Galatea is, but it is believed to b the nom de plume of Miss Letitia Ann Shepard, considered tD be the most beautiful woman in London. She is the daughter ot Dr. Joseph Shepard, a pbycic'.an of high standing in London, and formrrly of St. Louis, Älissouri. For sometime pat her letters to the Chicago Inter-Ocean have attracted the attention of many Americans who have visited and lived iu London, not only by their vivid description o things as thy occur, but by their truthful picture of facta and thdr conscientious detail ol mattors in art. Durinjr, the past three years this lady has been the favorite of some of the moat recherche reunions in the English capital and her presence is always looked for at Lady Ilardy'a brilliant and high toned receptions on Saturday evenings. It was at one of these receptions that the famous portrait painter, Havel, met her, and being struck with the wonderful beauty of her feautures and face, begged she would allow him to paint her portrait for the Royal Academy. Miss Shepard is rather tall, graceful and easy in manner, with an air of refined culture and thedignity of majestic genius, which shows itself in her every look and movement. Her eyes and nose are exceedingly like the Empress Eugenie's, and her bair is ot a deep auburn and very thick and long. This last is the cause of envy to many of the London belles. Miss Shepard has been received in high circles in London as no other American writer, and In consequence of her queenly manner and ber superb taste in all that pertains to art and dress, she has won for herself a name and a place which but few even among the English writers could ever hope to gain in London society. DENTRI3TY IN DETROIT. MOW MARY BRACED UP ASD THE OLD MAJ CAME DOWN. The Detroit Free Press tells the tale in this way: About ten o'clock yesterday morning a farmer and his wife hitched their team on Woodward avenue, and In another five minutes had mounted the stairs and appaarod in a dentist's office. The old lady tid her faco tied up and there was a smell ol camphor, peppermint, paregoric, turpenpentine and oil ot smoke as she crossed the walk. "Brace up now, Mary brace up!" cautiondd the husband as tbey started to climb the fetairs. "I know jist how ye feel kinder weak in the knees, like but the feller up stairs '11 have that old snag out o' there liko a horse running down hill!" They were met by the smiling dentist and the husband continued: She's got an old snag which we want drawed or dng out or driven in or sunthin' or other." "Take a chair, madam," replied the dentist, "and I guess I can help you." "I vtci! if I bain & a mind to back out!" said she, dropping on to the sofa. "Brace, Mary brace!" commanded the husband. "Why, even little children so high (measuring) coma up here every dav and have their teeth drawed for fun!" "I don't b'lieve it!" she bluntly replied. "Do you s'pose I'd lie to you, Märydo you s'pose I'd tell a deliberate lie right bete?" asked the husband.

Sho seemed to think he would, but didn't say so, and TUE DENTIST TALKED SOFTLY A!D SWEETLY, and finally induced her to remove her shawl and hat and sit down in the chair, While he was looking over hisünstruments the husband remarked: "You want to brace, Mary Hold yer mouth open as wide as you possibler can, end don't try to look outcn the winder." I wish ye'd shet up she snapped, fitting up straight. "Don't you s'pose I know enough to git a tooth drawed?" "But can't yer own husband speak to ye, Mary the husband who has lived with you nigh on to thirty-six year?' The dentist waved him away and cajoled tbe woman into leaning back and opening her mouth, lie found the cause of her mi c ery to bo aa old snag of a tooth, which would have to be dug around, but as soon as the lance toueb&tl the gum she screamed out aüd fctrusrgled up. "Mary dear Mary, why do you holler!" exclaimed the husband, rushing over to ner siae. 'sne s au riht the worst is over," replied the dentist. Ob, Blie'll stand itüikean elephant she's got real grit, haven t you Mary?" Sho iell back, opened her mouth again, and aain the lanco made her scream cut "Brace, Mary shut yer eyes and hold on to the cheer!" exclaimed the husband. wUh you'd squat over there.and stay there I' she snarled, alter spitting out a mouthful ol blood. "iut I can't sit thar and hear ye moan, and holler, and take on ho." "Who's a liollerin'?" ."You did." "No I didn't " Miry, don't tell me a lie a bold, straight lie right afore thi3 dentister." The dentist induced him to be seated again, but it was nve minutes before the woman would open ner mouth. Sheileclared that THE ACUK HAD ENTIRELY VANISHED, and that her tooth never felt so well in her life. Don't try to crawfish, Mary don't try mat!" exeiaimea ner misoaad.

A ROMANTIC ROGUE! WOOS AND WEDS A WEALTHY WIDOW. A FOEQER AND COUNTERFEITER WOOS A WID OW AND IS TRANSFERRED FROM THE BRIDAL CHAMBER TO THE JAIL A HARRASSISG HONEYMOON. This sensational story of romance and reality is from the Chicago Times: The name of 44 Wade," borne by an individual of pleasing address and abilities far above mediocrity, next to the detectives, is as familiar to bankers of Chicago and ehewhere, aa that of Smith, Brown, Jones, or any other man. To tbe one class he is known as a "coney" man; to the other as the teacher of the art of detecting counterfeit money. So proficient is he in either "profession" that his ability to adapt himself to circumstances and ply each vocation with an adroitness passing the understanding of both his pupils and his victims is unquestioned. A short time ago "Wade," so called, was arrested in this city on a bench warrant issued by the United States Court at Pittsburg, and transported to that tity, where, under tbe nameot "Millege" W.Johnson, he awaits trial for forgery. He bs3 run the gamut ot genteel crime, it any department of felony can be so nominated, and alter a pursuit of several years, has been gotten "dead to rights," as the law officers call it, and will, unless he is able to compound his crime, pass several years under the humane influences at work within the walls of a state penitentiary. Johnson is a native of Nova Scotia, and in that far ofi region became INITIATED INTO MYSTERIES, the practice of which has made him infamous and an object of public condemnation. Rumor has it that his life there was not cast in pleasant places; business complications, law suits, and to crown these burthens an all aire de caar, had the effect of rendering him desperate, and induced him to launch bis:bark on the turbid waters ot crime, which has landed him in a haven of misery and disgrace. From Nova Scotia he emigrated to the Dominion of Canada, doubtless intent on redeeming his past record by a life devoted to honest pursuits. In this cold, practical, unsympathetic dependency, his success was ot a character not calculated to impress him with a favorable experience, for, irom ail accounts, gaunt want lorced him to crime or a change ol base. He accepted tbe latter alternative, and by hook or crook, either as an unappreciated deadhead or as a laborer, be managed to reach the city of Boston, in which center he hoped to achieve a commendable victory. His first experience In tbe "hue" was passed in guiding the Mgh-mettled racers of a horse railroad,to and from distinct points in tbe city for a consideration incommensurate with aesthetic tastes and inclinations. From the platform of a street car he promoted himself to the seat of the peddler's wagon, and lor a season dealt in a class of notions so accept able to every x antes neart, and wan a moderate success. But tbe small returns that met his endeavors were not sufficient to cratiiy his craving, and he had recourse to various petty a;t3 of CRIME TO FILL THE VACCCM. Iq turn, baiiISi and detectives scented hU whereabouts, and he was forced to flee the city to escape their vigilance. His assocla tion had been with the class of pariahs who frequent the byways of all large cities, and by their "art" receive tribute from ignor ance aad credulity, vhich supplies them with a means of life and pleasure. As be fore remarked, Johnson is a man of educa tion, and the innate disgust bred in him by association with that class lorebade his con sorting with gutter snipes and men of small job. He formed the acquaintance of a leader of a gang ol counterfeiters, and by hs accomplishments so won on the "koneaciers," confidence, thst he was in troduced into ruany ot the Intricate ways of the business, wmie tnus rnentored, he de veloped the possession of a knowledge ot the "craft" that was almost Intuitive, and among other accomplishments, an ability to discriminate between counterfeit money and its opposite. With this stock in trade. when he learned that the officers of the law were on his track, he emigrated from Bos ton, and engaged in a speculative tour among tbe cities of Canada and the East. When opportunity presented itself, he en gaged In teaching bankers and other moneyed men tbe art he acquired during a residence among the social drift at Boston. After a tour embracing the cities of New York, Philadelphia. lHHiniore, Pittsburg, Cincin nati and St. Loni3, with an encouraging p roht, he finally established himself at Pittsburgh, and prepared the ways and means that be fondly thought would culminate in placing him in comparatively comfortable circumstances. He rttaiued a book in which his pupils had inscribed their names, expressive ot his ability and hon esty, and it became the innocent agent by which be was introduced into the financial circles of any city in which he temporarily sojourned. This, coupled with his OENTKEh ADDRESS AND RATHER RETIRING MANNERS, gained him an audience of bankers and capitalists in Pittsburgh, by whom he wa re ceived aad treated a3 an export, from whom a correct knowledg3 would be gained that would secure them against the approach of the "coney" man's exactness. He tarried hereabouts for some time, inspiring confi dence and securing patronage. Among the friend3 he attracted by his excellence ana bon hommo, was a gentleman named Wade, whose name he appropriated), who was profuse in his attentions and expressions of

August, 1872, in possession chance placed or an opportunity to perpetrate e a felony. at tbe expense of Wade, wbic hicn he rlrruly be ll ved would forever remain beyond the ken of humanity. Having access to tbe office of Mr. Wade, he succeeded one day in procnr Ing tbe possession of a United States bond. registered in the name ot his patron. He re tained the paper only long enough to forge Wade's signature, and hypothecated it at one of the city banks for J 1,000. In a short time it was missed, money dealers were ad vertlsed that a bond having such a number bad been stolen, and warning innocent pur chasers. The bank discovered the fraud that bad been perpetrated, and set on foot a discovery of the forger. Johnson was BUBpeciea, aner tne ordinary ex pedients in sueh cases had been exhausted, and on belnsr identi fled by tbe bank officers was remanded to lall to await the action of the erand jury. xrrior to ms inai ne in some way managed to get bail and jumped tbe town. Leaving nttsDurg ne returned to Boston, where be engaged in business as proprietor of a milk dairy. In October, 1872, he passed a 20 counterfeit united States note on the clerk of tbe Revere House, but was discov ered and arrested. He was examined before a commissioner and committed in de fault of bail. Again he obtained the "doncer," and was released on a bond of ?j,000. He was INDICTED AND HIS TRIAL FIXED for a day during the March term, 1S73, o the United States Court held in Boston When tho case was called it was ascertained that he had absconded, and that his bond was worimess. w aae, it is reported, re turned to his native heath in Nova Scotia, and after a brief sojourn there, started once more on his travels. After - wandering hither and yon for nearly two vears. in Ds cember last he made his advent in Chicago, and established himself at a boarding-house in tne wesi division. ills circum stances were comparatively easy, and when he had taken in the city, completed his plan ot action, and perfected arrangements for what is supposed to nave ueen me execution oi a gigantic fraud, he began his visits to bankers and money changers, proposing to Induct them into the teeret of discriminating, by metes and bounds, between a current bill of the realm and its base counterpart. His success, it is anegea, was unDOunaea, and furnished him tbe means to indulge a luxurious mode of life, divided batween his pupils and the pleasures accessible to one of means. Dur ing his residence at tbe fashionable board ing house, across the river, which numbered among its guests representatives of tbe most refined and autocratic circles, while he was hatching the plan that was to enrich him and place him in a position secure from barm, he made the acquaintance of a widow, who accepted his advances and yielded him frequent formal audiences. She is the widow oi an oia resident or Uhicago, whose name was once as familiar to tbe readers of dally papers as mat oi aiatt lienoer, and who, dying some years ago, left her as a consoler, a fortune estimated at a little short of $50,000. Her substanial attractions augmented by those of a personal character, made her a cynosure In the critical contemplation of J ohnson. After courtship, the soul ot which was its brevity, the twain were made one and took up their residence on one of the avenues in the vicinity ol Union Park. Here in THE ENJOYMENT OF DOMESTIC 11USS he forebore a consummation of his plans, and, ignorant of the toils the detectives were weaving about bim, continued his teaching about the board of trade and moneyed resorts of tho city. He is known to the officers of the law as a man of great resource, unbounded ingenuity, nerve and courage. On one occasion in Baltimore he was employed in a shirt store, and run to cover through the treason ot a girl be had loved not wisely, but oscaped. It was arranged between the officers and . tbe puppet that she should visit the store where it was suoposed that he was employed, in disguise, Identify him, and report to tbe officer who was to remain at "Guenandon's," a drinking house in the vicinity. The decov visited the store, but was recognized by Johnson, who excused himself temporarily, lelt tbe house by a rear door, visited Guenan don's," where he took a drink, and thence left lor Annapolis, eluding the authorities. At another time be was found at Harry Jenning's house, in Boston, but compromised with his captor by the payment of $900. He was traced to Canada by the authorities, where all scent of him was lost and the chase abandoned until a new trail should be obtained. During the past winter his apprehension was delegated to Officer P. D. Tyrrell, recently connected with the Chicago force, who is well known as an acute, brave and conscientious officer. He placed himself in possession of the man's history, and got on his track after leaving New York two years ao. He finally heard ol a man in this city practicing the profession for which Johnson had become known anaocs business men throughout the country. Ou reaching; this city ho ascertained to a certainty thit his . GAMK WAS IN REACH, and laid his plaus for its secursraent. About the middle of the past month, Tyrrell visited the residenee of the bridegroom elect, but failed to lind him. On thesub tquent day he was more successful, and, iu the character of a banker, interrogated him aa to learning the art Johnson taught. Tbe sequel that attended the visit can readily be comprehended. At tbe first blush Johnson was disposed to be facetious, but, seeing es cape hopeless, yielded as gracefully as he was able, only asking tbat the arrest might not be communicated to his wife. He was" taken before Judge Blodgett, who committed the prisoner until arrangements should be perfected for his transfer to Piitsburg, and he was taken charge of by an ofdeer. He proposed to Tyrrell to " arrange " the matter satifactorily, but his proposal was met with the assurance tbat Tyrrell was not that kind of a man. When every expedient had failed, as a last resoit be communicated his position to bis wife, who, as soon as she ascertainee his place of detention visited him. He endeav ored to persuade her to pay the amount of the bond and accrued interest, alleging that by so doing he would be enabled to arrange for a dismissal of the indictment. This sho declined to do, and -he was railroaded to Pittsburg, where he will be tried at the next term of court. Tbe arrest of a man who preys upon tbe public, and whose abil ity bo to do Is increased by his educational and other resources, is an act for which the public are indebted to the acuteuess, shrewd ness, energy, ana honesty of tue omcer who accomplished such a result. His wife, it is said, contemplates a visit to the "smoky city," with a view to procure his release, but in the event of her effecting tht3, to him. unspeekable desideratum, indictments without number hang over him in all the states, and when one lau another will De Invoked, until his conviction and imprisonment are obtained. He will be weighed and found 6hor of tho elements of christian excellence, without which man is dangerous at home and abroad. Mr. Withers, the new senator from Vir ginia, has eleven daughters, and the Rich mond papers say that when be removes to Washington, four milliners of the former town will shut up their shops.

C Sept. 23, 1SG2. From numerous testimonials of the hieb est character, and from personal experience, we approve tuo very great success ol Dr. I. Zacharie in operating upon corns, bunions and other troubles ol the feet by vhich Instantaneous reliet is afforded, and we desire that the soldiers of our brave army have the benefit of tbe doctor 'u surprising skill. A. Lincoln, Wm. H. Seward. In pursuance of this letter, tbe secretary ol war, who was as impatient as Mr. Lincoln or Mr. Seward to FÜT THE BOYS ON A GOOD FOOTING, Issued tbe following order: "War Department, Washington, D. C, Sept. 24, 1SG2. "Dr. I Zacharie has permission to pass within tbe line ot the United States forces around Washington and on the Potomac, for the purpose of operating upon tbe feet ot the soldiers tor corns, bunions, etc.; this pass to continue for 30 days. üDWIN M. STANTON. 'Continued for 60 days, by order of Gen. Tucker Blake, assistant secretary of war. Signed November 21, 1862." With these documents in his pocket. Dr. Zacharie proceeded at once to Fortress Monroe, when, according to the statement ot his petition, he operated on the feet of not less than five thousand soldiers coder command of General John A. Dix, and to the great re lief of the soldiers and the entire satisfaction of the general commanding. Having extirpated these enemies ot an effective army in tnat quarter, ne next proceeaeu to New Orleans,wbere General Banks was then in command. Here the bony excrescences of 6,000 bold soger boys were removed, and they were prepared lor the Red Klver cam paign. Thence he returned to Washington, and moved from camp to camp about the capital and Baltimore and other points contiguous, where troopa wero stationed, and 4,000 more volunteers were able to rise up and bless Dr. Zacharie. This remarkable chiropodist claims to have relieved not less than 15,009 saldiere of the cutaneous obstacles to effeotive duty in the field. HE ASKED NO COMPENSAlfoN tbeu. He had done his Dart toward the ! stamping out of the rebellion. He literally furnished filteen thousand stamps that otherwise might have been pat in hospitals to hobble about on crutches, consuming rations, hospital stores, and doing no duty at the front. It was modest in the patriotic doctor not to prefer a claim for these valuable services. He waited until tbe war was over, the negroes freed and habilitated as citizens, tbe work of reconstruction about completed and. the national debt in process of reduction. And then he applied to congress for compensation at the rate of three dollars per soldier, or 115,000 in all. Upon this petition Mr. Kellogg, from the committee on war claims, made report. We regret to observe in this report, which is adverse to the claims of the petitioner, a disposition to ceuippant ana facetious. Has Mr. Kellogg no corns, hath no bunion made tender bis regard for the pedal extremity? Does he know what it is to have a No. 12 hobnailed brogan, supporting a columnar wtight of ISO pounds, suddenly superimposed on a loot each toe of which was equipped with an arrow pierciog to the quick? Doe3 he know experimentally what it is to have a Roman nose constructed on the pedal landscape, around which the appreciative shoemaker describes an ellipse ot awful proportions when constructing a covering for it? Has he ever tried to mitigate its pangs with poultices, or touched its aggravating protuberance with iodine till It resembled the fiery cone ofa volcano? "How blessed Is the son of woman born Who never felt the stlDg of corn, Or smarted like ten thousands onions With blistering bands aud blasted bunions." The objection that Dr. Zacharie does not produce the corns and bunions is evidence ot tbe service rendered, is not well taken. He could draw from his private collection doubtless,' ample proof of his profes-ional skill, and then an inquiry would have to be made whether they were the actual corns which impeded the progress ot the armies in the year 1832. The fact that the armies moved more rapidly the ensuing year, and from that time to the end of the war did net stay their advance, but marched through and through the confederacy with l,a rapidity oi movement mat aswunaea

the veterans of European campaigns, is inferential proof that Dr. Zicbl fJl!was n8tromental in putting the armies into good marching order, and it is for the government to snow the contrary before rejecting the doctor's claim. Had tbe eovernment at the time Dr. Zachsrie was reSoviTg C?.rDVn,d de8tJinK the bunions, signi2HKMeslre. t0 ve lbem Preserved Is nWon V the "ArmJ Medical MaiLÄv8 lbe doctor wull have "P"1 ith the request, it transportation SSf?iK ,ye-1bee? bad- Aod amoving sight the collection would have been, what an inspiration to the patriotism of coming generations, as they gazed upon these indurated monuments ot the hardships of WEARING ARMT SHOES, a size too big or too small, in the war of the rebellion. The obectlon that he did not serve all the Boldiers alike, that, in point f fact, out of a million of soldiers, more or less, but fifteen thousand were beneficiarie of the doctor's skill, is unworthy of an average congressman, and shows to what an extremity the committee was pushed to

avoid a rececnition of the claim does Mr. Kellcgg know i-rr. iwere ny other than How that those ,vw ouiuiers wno naa corn nn "c ua ounions on their feet? Were there any complaints of the existence of these foes to locomation after Dr. Zacharie retired from his voluntary service and rev m, JJ Pe Praotic of bis profession in New York? The fact that KO DAt. X it'll, 1 f lirl.i r n liar Ik.l. M . should have volunteered to contribute his tune and skill to the army is presumptive tbat he did notceefe In hi pood work till be had eradicated tbe evil and lelt the armies foot-free to march end countermarch from tbe river to the sa. Tbe committee, also, unreasonably require him to prove tbat the eorns and bunions which he treated with such eminent success were the result of active military operations, and didn't exist prior to tbe period of enlistment. That is absurd. The volunteer passed a medical inspection before he was taken into the service. Had he been hobbled in this fashion, any medical inspector WOULD HAVE REJECTED HIM, as unfit for duty. The presumption is, therefore, that all volunteers and drafted men, who were accepted, went into the ranks free of these incumbrances, and acquired them in his first experience with army shoes. The inactive military operations of the army, at the time Dr "Zacharie entered upon his chirooodal missionary work of savin? the soles of tbe soldiers. are in evidence cf the need ol this ben efactor of his country. Dr. Zacharie need not despair. Let him renew his retitlon tr the incoming congress. It la made un largely ot patriots, who nronose to deal lib. erally with all who, by reason of the warj suffered In fortune or person. Tbe green back printing presses will be put nnder a full bead ot steam, and enough money printed to pay off all claims.including many less worthy of consideration tbau that of the New York chiropodist. Bnt if be fail before cunaress. it is the duty of the rich aod powtrrul municipality of which he is an honored- leident, to erect to his memory. and iu recognition of his patriotic services, a to wf rin monument in Central Park that will dominate tbe Tribune observatory, and dwarf the new postoffiee. And the appropriate design would be a colossal corn surmounted by a gigantic statute of the only chiropodist in the world who removed the cores and bunions from the leet of 15,000 soldiers. WILSON'S WAN DARINGS. IIIS HEAKT SWELLS W1T3 .GRATITUDE AND ALL THAT SORT OF THING. Redlield, the C.ncincati Commercial cor respondent, writing np the South for that paper says: The vice president has been having a good time in Tennessee. He has been honored in a manner that seems to impress him with a deep sense of obligation. Since Andy Johnson came home from the presidency, no one man has received the attention in Nashville bestowed won Mr. Wilson. He was met at tne depot by the Governor of tbe state and staff, and many ofhcials and citi zens, and was the guest of the governor during his visit. Everything that the wealthy and hospitable citizens ot Nashville could think of was done to make his visit pleasant and agreeable. The confederate) element of the ex-rebel soldiers were lavish, in their attentions, fairly getting ahead of the republicans, &nd giving the vicepresident a warmer welcome than be bad any idea ot receiving in this latitude. In his little speeches and private conversation he referred to these un expected attentions, and, like our old friend A. J., spoke ot a heart swelling with grati tude, and all that sort ol thing. Tbe entertainment given him by Colonel E. W. Cole has rarely been surpassed by anything of the kind in Nashville. Colonel Cole, like the vice president, and like nine tenths of the leading citizens of the land, has worked hi way Cl FROM A VERY HUMBLE POSITION to one of wealth and eminence. He is per haps the leading railroad man of the South, controlling, In one capacity or another, all that long line of road lroiu Hickman, Ken tucky, to August;, fiLTs.-gU. At the entertainment hegavo Mr. Wilson were the leading citizens of Nashville, the governor and the state officials, tbe ex-judges of the Supreme Court, and seven out of the eight bishops of the Methodist Cfaur-h South, who happened to bo iu Nashville. His reception in Memphis has been no lass cordial and hearty. The exConfederates there took hold of him as much as tbey did in Nashville. Even ex-Governor Harris responded to the toast: " The Union" at the receotion, and spoke sentiments which must have strack the vice president as significant to say the least. If this is tbe year of reconciliation and good feeling, and so it seems, the visit of Vice President Wilson to the South has piven tbe ex-Confederates an opportunity to testify to their kindly feelings, and they have done so. In none ot tbe years since the war has there been such a breaking up of prejudice and annihilation of hate . as has characterized the first half of the year IS75. It la auspicioua of the centennial season, when we bopi to see reconstruction in fict as well as in name. Before diHnifcSine tbe vice president to tbe wilds of Arkuntas and Texas (if be goes there), we may be allowed to say that, in his little off band speeches, the receptions, serenades, and tbe like, he has not distinguished himself. What he says is common-place and pointless, superior, indeed, to anything that Grant could do, but hardly up to what we would expect irorn Henry vv lUon. In the run of speeches of this sort, how inferior are tbey all to those delivered by Horace Greeley doling his tour, or series ot tours, in 1872. They have never been equalled In America. After an absence of titteen years from this city,mo5t of. the time having been spent in France, the Hon. Garnett Duncan arrived here on Sunday la?t, and is stopping with his son, Col. Blantou Duncm. Tbe many old lrlendsot the distinguished gertleman will regret to hear that he is in ieble health, and was so exhausted by his tempestuous voyage across the Atlantic and his ride to this city, that he has been unable to leave his bod since bis arrival.
