How Trival Incident Have Changed the "Life and Character. It h&a been Baid that there never was an individual born whose whole career did not hinge ufon a chance of accident Whether or not an as sertion so broad and sweepingbe true it is a fact that the hjstory of men who have stood in. tno ioremost. ran is rich with instances to the effects of happy chance or accident. Thus Wallenstein. the magnificent, the great captain who never lost a battle, was, until the ago of manhood, little better than an idiot, until a chance fall down a stone staircase in jured his head, but cleared his clouded intellect. Mahillon was a mere idiot untiLa similar happy chance fall re stored him to reason. Tne gomen genius of Charles Diokens might have remained forever unsuspected butlor chance. Dickens in early life was enamoured of the stage. After many attempts he succeeded An gaining a promise from themanagerof theCov ent Garden theater to accord his his trionic powers a private hearing. A chance exposure to a rainstorm brought on a cold which prevented Dickens from keeping hi3 engage ment and thus the stage lost an as piring actor, wnue literature gameu a kine. Thorwaldsen. the great Dan ish sculptor, after working for months unrecognized, in xtome, ueieruimeu. w despair to return home and lay down the sculptor's chisel forever. A chance error by a careless clerk in drawing his passport detained him twenty-iour nours. .During tnat interval 01 wait- lng Mr. Hope walked into his studio, admired his Jason in clay and aroused the despondent Dane's hope by order ing a copy in marble. Thorwaldsen unpacked his boxes and never after ward in his long career lacked patron age. KacheL the great tragedienne, was, when a child, a street singer, and as such might have passed into womanhood and old age had not a party of critics dining together chanced to hear her loud, clear voice beneath their window.' They ob served the child's wonderful face and eyes, and in a kindly spirit, aroused no doubt by the wine they had drank, proposed to her protectors to place her in the conservatory as a pupil. Sir Walter Baleigh would probably haye remained out of favor with the court had Elizabeth, on her walk to tho Tower, chanced to 'take a path less muddy. Every Teader of histoty knows the story, how tho gallant Sir Walter spread his cloak beneath the royal feet and was rewarded with his sovereign's smile and speedy Restoration to favor. Pot- emkin, the favorite of Cathenne II., and the founder of the pow erful Bussian family which beam his name, would doubtless have remained an obscure soldier had not a trivial accident a chance, in fact changed his destiny. After Catherine had de posed her weak husband and herself assumed the scepter, she was accus tomed to parade the streets of St. Petersburg, sword in hand, at the head of her troops. One day Potem- Kin noticed her sword bore no knot He boldly Btepped forward, braving the knout for his insubordination, and offered his. The czarina accept ed it, and, struck by the handsome young lieutenant, asked his name and regiment, and it he would not like to serve her in the palace. Haul Pasha, the sultan's chief of artillery and most trusted adviser, was a tinner. Employed in the palace he offered to mend a valuable French clock, as no clockmaker was available, and did the work so well that the sultan bade him lay aside his tinner's service and serve him. Sir .Robert Wilson, one of England's best generals, owes his ele vation from a desk in a solicitor's office to a chance meeting with" the Duke of York in the rain. Of Ben jamin DisraelLthere was a story cur rent years ago to prove that the building of his greatiess was helped along by chance. In his youth he was a reckless spendthrift His am bition was to lead his party, but such was the state of his finances that at one time it was doubtful whether he could longer support the expense of a seat in parliament. Accident, or chance, threw him in the way of a noted money lender in London, who liked the brilliant young dandy on first sight and did what he had never done before nor afterward to any man, lent Disraeli 5,000 on no other security than his genius and am bition. Disraeli never forgot the service, and never tired, sohe story goes, of returning it in the Tarious ways which 'his after influence en abled him to do. George Stephenson, the inventor of the locomotive, was born with a taste for mechanics. His parents were too wretchedly-poor to give him the advantages of education. At a very tender agaie was compelled to work as a pit-boy at twopence a day to help support the family. Deep in the mines, shut out from everything that cheered the senses, young Steph enson found mnch to stimulate his mechanical bent He mastered the hoisting machinery and longed to be allowed to take charge of it One day the engineer chanced to stumble and injured himself. Young Stephen son promptly offered to supply his place and proved "his skill so well that the mine superintendent gave him permanent charge of the machinery and thus gave"him an opportunity to observe and think and build until the "Bockef appeared as a result of his labors. . , IiOkdok, Oct 3, Sir Evylin Baring has sent a dispatch, to the govern ment that Gordon, After having bom barded Berber for some time, effected an entry into the place and recap tured it TheTebelsand hostile in. habitants fled when the bombardment ceased.
