IA seems that In his younger day^ when Horace went ‘‘wown 16 New York ta earn a livelihood, he store as odd a suit of clothes as he ever has since, and displayed his epen countenance and flaxen hair to some disadvantage. Entering the city a stranger, and not over well provided with money, he hailed with pleasure Beliah Brown, a young friend who used to wort­ hy hirside in a p/nting office M ' up in Ver- n*< n(,” and who I indly graf ted him, ajnd, learning his destitute condition, invited him to h*i8own boarding house—the land­ lady, however, requiring Berish’s recom­ mendation as to the g >od moral character of his friend Horace, before admitting him to her table. It is said the lady and her boarders enjoyed ¡the oddities of Horace exceedingly at first, but soon learned to apreciate the fact that he was blessed with uncommon ability, so that bis appearance was forgotten when he opened bis month t*> speak. We were assured that the two youog friends, Berish and Horace, actual­ ly made arrangements for starting a news­ paper in partnerajtip in the city of New York, when Beriah was called home by his parents,and the adventure fell through. That the project was not consummated if t > be regretted, for tho moral of the «tory, lies in the query—What might bate been the effect on the politics of IL.
