These are the masterpieces that ho would prefer to be remembered by, but, by some "sarcasm of destiny," as it is called, he has been compelled To seek another and more profitable outlet for his genius. Writing to a friend, some years ago. he said: Alas, is it not deplorable that I have been forced to become a clown in my old age?" He exaggerated his position, for there Is an immense amount of valuable material in his productions, which, however, have minor chord of the comic. But while the world demands and pays for his fun he is really averse to such composition, and the fame he has won has an element of bitterness and disappointment to him. Augusta (Ga.)

One or t,wo other newspapeis had sbmething to say about the project and then a na tive patriot rushed Into print .with the proposition that Mexico should get a liberty bell of her own.

An eminent scholar in one ot the interior cities made a long and laborious search of the national archives, resulting In the discovery that before, at the time or soon after the federal independence any one of a dozen bells might have been rung. The populace went wild over this Important revelation and It was the unanimous voice Of the nation that if the bells were not rung when slavery! whaekles were at any rate they ought to have been. And therefore Mexico must have Its liberty bell. At this particular juncture a fervld: poet paraphrased the classics and let drop a motto that waa greedily seized Aut campanula upon by the people, tnvenlam, aut faclara," he sung, and, taking uptbe cry, the populace swor they would cither And a bell or make Oite-am- t ' one. In order that no time should be wasted, with the national exhibition only a few months off, it became necessary to prepare for both alternatives, Several enthusiastic gentlemen charged themselves with the duty of supplying the national want by having a nice, i lean liberty boll made to order.
