cords.the death, in that city on Sunday
last, of Thomas Magruder, an old ne
gro vilmlisis attained the advanced age
of 119 years.. He is supposed to bays
beeu the,one who suggested the name
and the leading features of the charac; ,
te t Stowe'S celebrated novel,
"Pucler, Tom's Cabin." Tab!' supivasi•
tlon,ie based on the.cnincideuee• of

says the Anima!, that Henry . - t 9 d
Beecher., heels resident there. wa l la a
constant visit or of " Uncle Torit's,'' well
acquainted with his story, and , s sin
cere ,aenirer of his virtues; that Mrs.
Stowe ,herself sometimes called to um
the old. man; and that "Utitsle . Tons'i
Cabil,"Aolovis the name of his house
acqu tintateces; and was
a -fa:silinr phrase there long.. before
4rs, Stowe . immortalised it. At all
events it is the impression with.all the
friends; of,nrs Stowe and her brother,
iu Indianapolis, that "Old Uncle Tom"
was Oa original, or at • least the sap
geition of hero of the "Cabin." •
