The Melt Expert Matter of Arms In the United Mates In lilt Der lie Killed Twe Men In Slngte Combat Wearing Spanish Decoration. , "Pepe" Lulla U a familiar name lit New Orleans, yet ene which became tra ditional during the life time of lis posses posses Ber. "Pepe" was n popular designation, the real name of the old man wns Jose Lulla, te which he had the proud priv ilege of affli ing the knightly Den through the grace of Den Francisce Serrano, re gent of Spain, from whom twenty years age he, an American citizen, received the golden cress of the order of Charles III for such stout championship of hi natlve Spain as sent his name from New Orleans, ringing with praises Inte the loyal circles of Havana nnd fur Madrid. 'Twos that episode niade his fame In ternatienal, but It Is hut a single In cident In the his tory of a life full of the most des perate and roman tic ndveuture. He was past 70 years old when he died the ether day, nnd he led a somewhat secluded Ilfedewn In the old Third 'district, nway ! from the busy ! part of the town, ' but te the Inst he ii was full of vital!- ti nnd nrrtlft v" ITe JOSK ('TCTK") LULLA. loekct, fcn 'ymn younger than he wai, had a slender but vigorous Ilgure of medium height, hair nnd beard originally chestnut but later gray, and keen blue-gray eyes. He was born in the Island of Minorca, and claimed te have Moorish as well as Spanish bleed In Ms veins. He took te the sea early In life as cabin boy for nn American master, Jehn Conkling, of Bal timore. He settled In New Orleans, nnd was flrst employed as "bouncer" in n ball room and cafe of old Creele days. Soen after he took this position the cafe beenme known as euc of the most orderly in the city. Next, "Pepe" became a patron nnd then n master of the fencing schools, nnd may well be spoken of as the last of the New Orleans fencing masters. Leng be fore the war "Pcpe" was known as the most expert master of nrms in America. With saber, broadsword, rapier or small sword he was Invulnerable, nnd with fire nrms he bad few equals. With the pistol he would sheet dollars from between the lingers of his friends and pipes from be tween their teeth. His son, from whose head "Pepe" often shot oranges In Imitation of William Tell, was a graduate of West Point, nnd his picture hangs upeu the walls of "Pepe's" former residence In New Orleans, nmeng the many souvenirs of his adventurous, but none the less financially prosperous, life. His energetic nature led him Inte many speculations and his fortune was estimated at several hundred thousand dollars. Among his possessions was Grands Tcrre, mi island in Uarntnria bay, upon which Fett Livingston Is situated. Of the twenty or mero challenges which "Pcpe" received and half that number of actual duels which have fol lowed, only two men met death at his hand, and of the two fatal encounters one was undertaken whlle noting In the ca pacity of a second te n friend, and may be said te have been forced upon him. The opposing second was a German fencing master, who, en the field, declared his principal In no condition te light and of fered te take his place. "Very well," said "Pcpe," but In that case ou must deal with me, net with my principal." The German agreed, and n few mo ments later lay dead upon the ground with n ball through his arm and both his lungs. The ether fatal occasion followed upon the cplsode which made Pepe famous and (secured him his Spanish knighthood and decoration. Indeed, the only personal dlfllcultles which Pepe has had since the war were the result of his espousal of the Spanish cause. He early became nn American citizen, nnd took that view of his citizenship which induced him te re main loyal te the Union during the war, but he retained the warmest nHcctien for his native Spain, nnd even ns early as 1853, lu the excitement in New Orleans following the liepez filibustering expedi tion, became, by his lirnve defense of Spanish residents, the object of such hatred by the Cubans ns subjected him te maiiy attempts at assassination. The anti-Spanish excitement breke out ngaln in New Orleans in 1 SCO, nnd during this period he challenged n Cuban who had been guilty et a petty outrnge upon a de fenseless Spaniard. The man declined te light, anil Pepe posted him as a coward. His Indignation lelng thor oughly aroused be Issued French, Kngllsh and Spanish pesters and placed them con splcueusly nil ever the city, challenging Cubans nnd filibusters everywhere te mortal combat. Quite a number, leth in New Orleans nud in the West Indies, accepted nt first, and many crossed the Gulf te face the defiant champion of Spanish loyalty, for the unparnleled bold ness et the old mail spread like wildfire throughout the Spanish world. Hut one after another of thode who hastened te respond weakened when they learned of "Pepe's" wonderful skill with nrms and dauntless conrnge. Some changed their purpose of open light te midnight assassi nation; ethers, te escape the dangerous contest with semblance of honor, resorted te theso Jockeying tactics with which "Pepe" had already beceme familiar be fore the war, nud which hail se much te de with bringing dueling Inte disrepute nmeng southern gentlemen. At last ene truly brave man was found In the person of an Austrian efllccr, n soldier et fortune who had espoused the cause of the Cuban revolutionists. I.ike "Pepe" he was nn accomplished swordsman, but pistols were chosen te most nearly e'luallre the antagonists. The conditions were, dlstance thirty paces, flre nnd advance. When the word was given "Pepe" remained motionless, with his face turned nway from the Austrian who, reserving his lire, ad vanced with steady determination. He raised his arm te lire when he had reached a point near enough, us he thought, te ensure his aim. Upen the Instant Pepe wheeled about, nnd firing quick ns thought his ball transpierced the Austrian. It was seme months before the wounded man died, but liU fate effectually de terred ethers from facing Pepe in the cause of Cuba. He was long the object of attempts at assassination.

The remains of Gen. .Tose Antonie Paez, the founder of the republic of Venezuela and Its first president, nre about te be re moved te the land ever which he pre sided. He passed the last years et his life In New Yerk, where he died fifteen years age, at the age of 83. Paez was born near Acarlqun, n provlnce of llariuns en. June 13, 1?!H). At the age of 18 he beenme an overseer et cattle, but nt 20 enlisted In the military organization raised for the patriotic struggle which breke out en the linn et April, 1810. lu this struggle Spain triumphed nnd the patriots were obliged te submit in 1812. Paez lu the meantime had beceme a sergeant of cavalry, and the following year was made a cap tain, in which po sition he served whlle his distin guished country man, Pell ar, was attacking the Spanish troops en the frontier of New Granada. Paez held his cap taincy from the ntv. paez. Spaniards, nnd determined te resign it. He escaped te his nathe province nnd Joined Ilelivnr. Paez continued te serve his country for twenty years nt intervals. He was in command nt n famous action between the revolutionary forces and Iipc., at which liepcz was defeated. He was then made a brigadier general and put lu command of the revolutionary forces. Frem this time he continued te achieve victories, and at times co-epcrnted with ISelIvnr. Venezuela nnd New Granada united In ene republic called Columbia, nud the final overthrew of the nulherlty of Spain occurred nt the battle of Carnbabe, under the combined forces of Ilelivnr and l'ncz, aided by Kurepenn auxiliaries. In this cngagetnunt Paez, taking n by path un known te his enemies, succeeded in turn ing their right Hank, and routing the Spanish army. As a reward for his ser vices he was made general In-ehlef. The struggle went en until 1830, when Venezuela became nn independent repub lic, and the following ji-ar Paez was elected Its president. In 183SI he was re elected. Se successful wns he in effecting prosperity and reform that bis country men again, lu 1813, implored him te ac cept another election. He declined and threw his Inllueiicu in favor of dose T.

Paea was called In, but Menagnns proved tee strong, and the liberator of Venezuela wns taken prisoner nnd sentenced te per petual exile. After months passed in Jkll he was taken en Ixviril n steamer and cou ceu eyed te New Yerk, reaching there In I80O. lu 18.18 he was recalled, but re mained lu Venezuela only six mouths, lielng induced te quit the country by the petty jealousies of different leaders.

During this time lie assumed, by request, dictatorial jKiwcrs, w hlch seemed the only way te bring itlxmt a quiet.

POTTERY NOT MADE SO RAPIDLY AS REPORTED. r.iplannllnn of a Illg Story That lliu liecn Circulating In the Kngllsh News papers A flood Many Finishing Touches Needed The Cost. A paragraph has been going the rounds of the Kngllsh press, purporting te be a veracious statement of the rcmarkable fent of a "young Kngllsh potter astonish ing the United States by nn exhibition of his prowess" in making nn entire set of forty-four pieces in ths short time of eight minutes. The astonishment docs net seem te have spread te nny porccptlble extent nmeng American potters. Indeed, they de net appear te be aware of any, for the excellent reason that the alleged feat is simply an impossibility. Ne matter hew young that potter may be, he might be even younger, nnd, although English, still he couldn't de it, Mr. Theodere Havllnnd, whose author ity as an expert nelxxly will question, upon rending the paragraph said: "It is Impossible. What the mnu made was simply the camlse, or shirt, of the several articles lu the ten set. That Is nothing mero than n sheet of the dough like clay, mero or less accurate In thickness and ferrn that must be put en a meld, and when it dries te a certain point must have attached te It the ether parts required te complete the article for which it is In tended. Thnt forty-four thin pieces of clay may be spun upon a wheel In eight minutes, or even less, is net nt all surpris ing, but when thnt Is done, see hew far they nre from being finished. te nn neNis aftekwahi). "Turn tip your pinto or cup or pauccr, and you will see that it has a 'feet,' as it is technically termed, which is n circlet of clay attached te the cnmlse when it is sufficiently dry nnd is melded. In like manner, uotlce thnt ether articles, the teapot and Biignr bowl, have 'cellars' nt their tops, whlfh are also put oil lu the wune way. Then the lids have knobs nnd what is termed the 'bridle' the part that sets down in the cellar added te them. Then the teapot nt least must have n spoilt, and both it nud the cream jug at least handles. And all these things have te be melded nnd stuck en the eamlsc. It is preposterous te suppese even that a mnu could de all this in the time speci fied. Kvcn if he possessed the manual dexterity te work with lightning like rapidity, the clay would net dry suffi ciently lu se few minutes te cuuble him te complete the pieces." Similar expressions of disbelief were uttered by two ether experts. They both said that whlle it is true that a great ma jority et the pottery workers in the United States are Kngllsh, the employers nre Americans nnd have Introduced In their establishments such expediting and lalxr saving processes ns nre ahead of every thing of the kind In Fnglaud. A factory in Trenten wns spekcu of as ene of the most progressive. It Is often visited by Kngllsh pottery manufacturers when they come te this country, nnd they seldom fail te find new points for their own nd vuutage nt home. At the same time net even American Ingenuity has ever yet found n way te turn out a complete, set of forty tour pieces in eight minutes, nnd the eung Knglishmnu who could de it would indeed astonish them very much and open up such n prospect of reduction in cost of production ns would make even a protec tive tariff seem of miner importance. the question of cost. Touching upon that question of cost, Mr. Havlluud said: "Thcre is very llttle dllTercnce In the cost of production of the actual white material, whether It is for the very finest class of goods that nre sub sequently te receive the highest artistic decoration, or for the common nrtlcles thnt pass without decoration te the con sumer's hands. Thnt is, of course, with the understanding that n wide dllTercnce exists between the cost of the will te ma terial of iorcela!n, which is composed et kaolin and that of china that is made from clay. The cost of workmanship en the white material Is about the same, and there Is llttle difference in the time re quired for production, ns the processes are, te a great extent, identical, though it is worthy of renywk that we de de net And, as a rule, that the workman who Is skilled In handling ene substance, the clay, for Instance, can with equal ability work the ether. Thcre is n dllTercnce in the manipulation that is difllcult te de fine "Ne man, ns the making of pottery Is new carried en, makes all of nn article. One makes the camlse by rolling It out, as a cook would his ple crust, or by spinning it en a wheel, according te the use for which it is intended. Anether fits the clnyj te the meld and trims It. Others attach te it the several parts required for Its completion, ethers decerate It, and se It posses from hand te hand until it reaches the kiln. It is in the decoration that the great cost is added. A whlte jmr celaln set of forty-four pieces, thnt may net be worth mero than from $10 te $15, can be decorated be that each plece may be made an almost priceless treasure of art. I11 practice we de net make, for ordi nary commercial demand, sets of that slze costing mero than $ 75, but we have made und can mnke them worth $200 very easily. Decoration that would Increase that value would have te be by seme great artist, ranking In the world of art far nbovetho professional porcelain decor decer decor nters, the liest of whom In France de net get ever 5,000 francs a year, say $1,000. The man who Is paid at that rate will spend a day, or perhniw two days some times, lu painting a single plate. That being taken into consideration, together with the high duties, it is wonderful thnt the exquisite porcelain Imported Is sold here se cheaply." New Yerk Sun. Lenp Year it l'raml.

Down te this time the preposition te exclude slavery from the northwest had met with llttle favor; It was struck out et Themas Jeffersen's ordinance of 178-1, nnd wns left out of Iho first 0110 Introduced In 1787. Then Dr. Cutler did a wonderful work. He was a graduate of Yale college, and had taken degrees In three professions law, medl medl clne und divinity. He was 45 years old, of great geniality nnd prevailed mightily with the southern representatives by his courteous bearing nim readiness. They thought him a prodigy of learning. They ML'HKINOUM ACAIIIIJIV. consented that he should go ever the bill "with leave te make remarks and prepare amendments;" and the fact is no longer disputed that he secured nud induced them te vete for theso Immortal clauses the ene forever prescribing slavery, the ether encouraging religion, morality and education. Of course, this derogates lu nothing from the credit previously due Themas Jeffersen. Thus wns planted upon the border et Virginian tjplcnl "New Knglaud Aliolltieu town," which has retained Its original charncleristicH through all the changes of n century. July 111 the pregnant "Ordlnance of 1787" beenme a law; en the U7th congress authorized the Hale of lauds te the Ohie company, nnd en the li7th of October fol lowing the contract for 1,500,000 acres wns signed lu New Verk city, by Samuel Osgood and Arthur l,ee for the treasury department and Muuassch Cutter and Wihthrep Sargent for the company. The price wns $1 per acre.wlth large nllow nllew iince.s for waste land at nominal figures. Dr. Culler also secured an additional grant et two townships for a university, with a proviso that 0110 mlle square In each should lm set apait for common schools and 0110 for the supjiorLef relig ious institutions. This was probably the last measure directly nppiepriating na tional treasure or hind for religious pur poses; for, though the Constitution 'docs net lu terms forbid it, the spirit et that clause has effectually dene se, and new the most thnt can lm secured, even nt a remote Indian agency, is ground enough for a church building. As the Constitution does net forbid the states te pass laws establishing or maintaining re ligions, some et them continued n moder ate, support te certain sects as late as 1620. lu Ohie, however, this llttle prece dent was Ignored, but the reservation of lauds for universities nud common schools has been a feature of all subsequent laws organizing territories, The Ohie company had, meanwhile, grown big enough te furnish feed for much geed laughter te the wits of Miuui chusettri wnc were just then nntleui te direct emigration te .Maine, and many ex cellent squills were aimed at "Putnam's Paradise." mid "Cutler's Indian Heaven." And for twenty jears afterward eastern repta were regaled with the same "chest nuts" which, fifty years later, were re served for the Wabash country. It was Ironically published that fat hogs, ready roasted, were found walking about with knives and forks stuck in their backs; that ene spring flowed pure brandy, and thut a species of Ohie llax bere bits of linen Instead of leaves. In sober earnest It was staled that the cllmate wns very enervating; that the cattle's horns were 6haken off with ngue, and that all the lat ter part of each summer was a long battle with disease. One caricatura represented a vi ell dressed, ruddy man oil a fat horse, with the legend, "lam going te Ohie," whlle in the opiKjsite direction was headed a wreck of humanity In rags, 011 a wretched beast, with the words, "I've been te Ohie." All this time the pioneers were strug gling with fearful dllllcultlcs. The first company, under command of MaJ. Hat field White, sjcnt the winter of 1787-88 in building beats en the Youghlegheny, an elllucut of the Moneugahela in western Pennsylvania; early in 1763 the ethers crossed the mountains, nud 011 April 1 the llttle band of forty-tight men embarked la three leg canoes, a tint beat and a croft of fifty tens burden, called tlrst the Art Art rcnture (ialley, but afterward the May flower. On April 7 they nnchercd nt the landing of the prcscut Marietta nnd 011 April 8 get out their stuff and went te work. Fert Harmnr still steed en the Muskingum oppeslto their location; but the pioneers seen constructed their own fort the Campus Martins, an elegant block house, snrreunded by a strong palisade. The block house was 180 feet square, containing seventy-twe rooms, each eighteen feet square; nnd It was de signed te shelter, In case of necessity, 000 lHvple. The Delawnre and Minge Indians were thcre befere them; but long befere the Indian's day the slte had licen the Mecca or the Jerusalem of that far mero misterleus rnce te whom scholars havu given the vngue name et ".Mound lluild its." The most striking of the mounds left by that peeple are still preserved, and give nn nntlque charm te Marietta. V Territorial Ciovcrner Arthur St. Clair, nnd Judges Jnnies M. Viirnum ami Sam Mel II. Parsons arrived within n few weeks. Maj. Wlnthrep Sargent was ap pointed secretnry, nnd en the leth of July civil government was formally organized. The first civil court was opened en the 8d of September. The long nnd terrible In illnii wnr checked the growth of the col ony; thirty persons were killed In the Im mediate vicinity. "Mad Antheny" Wnyne ended the war in 1703, nnd thereafter Marietta grew with n regular and health ful growth, Primary schools were estab lished lu the Campus Martins; a school house followed seen nftcr the wnce, and lu 1800 the Muskingum nendemy, the first high school in Ohie, was opened tin- fZJMB campus M.vrmus. tier charge et David Putnam, grandson et no. Israel Putnam, the "wolf killer." Hut the strangest fact In nil its history was that Marietta became officially a Ben pert. The place wns made a pert et clear ance, nnd lu less than eight years no less than twenty barks and brigs were con structed there and "wiled" down the Ohie and Mississippi, leaded with the preduce of the country. The first full rigged vessel built nt Marietta was named the St. Clair, nnd with Commedoro Abra ham Whlpple lu command, went out by New Orleans te Havana, nnd thence en ocean travel. Her commander wns the leader et the Ilhode Islanders who burned the llrltlsh schooner Oaspce in Narragan sett bay. Such were the men who founded Mnrlettn. And yet ihey had n hard light te keep slavery out et Ohie. When the constitu tional convention met nt Chlllcnlhe In 1802, n clause was reported allowing slav ery for a limited time, nnd en the first test It had In the convention 11 majority et one. Thcre la seme unpleasant ovl evl ovl ilcnce te the effect that Themas Jeffersen nnd William Henry Harrison favored this partial repeal et the anti-slavery clause In the ordinance. Judge Ephrnlm Culler, et Marietta, by nn earnest speech, secured the ene vete needed te defeat the measure. In 18115 Marietta cullege wan established, and is new ene of the most prominent col leges et the west, with seme 200 students nnd n library of ever ".."i.OOO volumes. The slte et Marietta retains nil Its natural beauty, whlle around it extends a highly cultivated region, new ns healthful as any lu the country, and filled with nti intelli gent, moral nud public spirited popula tion.
