FRIDAY, JUNE 8,1880,
Beau Brummell,—No, 4;
The Intimacy between Brummell and, the-
Prlncto of Wales continued .without intamip.
flon - for , many yeaM: tie was a ooutant
giioat at Carlton House, (the Prince’s yalacq,
pulley down, oygj tuirty years ago, and occu
pying what; lg iww, caned Carlton Terrace,
Waterloo PlaCe,) and, to all appearance, a
permanent fiivotlte. Ho accepted no pecu
niary favor from his Royal patron, and ; few
presents—a snuff-box br : , two, and' a gold
dressing setylce, of which even the boot-jack
was made of tho most precious material.
At last, to the surprise of the world, Brum
moll and the Prince had a serious dlflorehce,
and never again exchanged a fricndly wordl
The cause and circumstance! of this quarrel
have never been related. The popular.version,
is,'that Brumtoeil had laid a Wager that he
Would make tho frlnco ■of Wales perform a
menial sorvioe fhr him; that,', after’ a dinner at’
Carltod House, he did say, '‘Wales, ring .the
bell |”that the Prince did ring it i that On Its
feeing answered he deslred the servant to call'
for Sfroßrnminell’a carriage; that, making a
low bow to .the astonished Bean, the Prince
left the room, and that, immediately alter,
fifummell 4<dtted Canton House, never to fe
etiter it. Brnmnlell himSeif always denied the
tenth of .this stoty/saylng that hd wag on sdeh
Intimate .terms with the. Prince that, had they
been aione; hc might have'asked to ring the
hdli withont ohence, but that he never would
have committed the vulgarity of laying a wager
Upbuilt.' '. = __ ’ \
i BVummeU attributed the Prince’s hosttlity
to the Diet that in some dispute which Mrs.;
Pitzherbert, the PrlnCe’S true wile, had .with
a lady of rank, her,.rival, he took, thoi,patt , bf
the latter, aihl,had ;even made a, satirical re-,
mark npon Mrs. , P.’s ton yettif, which .was.'
equally ' ofleusiye to hex and to tte Princey
whoso, foible was a horror of, growing cqrpnl
lent. There was a gigantic porter at Carl
ton House, earned Ben, Snd IBrnmmoll not
only spoke bf the' Prince as "Big Ben,” but
Called Mrs. Fitzherbertby the name of Btcioa.
in Moore’s « Two'penny Post-bag ” there is
a rhymed epistle : from ■ Tom Grib to Big Ben,'
and a foot-note . states that the latter was a
nickname'given to the Prince at that time.; -
') The fittest took place towards tke close icif
1810, at which iime the Prince of Wales was
about ' being appointed locum tenem for, bis
father, then and until his death in, 1820, wholly
Incapacitated, tty insanity from exercising fie
functions of King. It is probable thajs tie,
Prince was tired of Brummell, by this time,
and his rale , through .life was to cufr.a corny
panion whom he ceased to care for. He was
becoming, as Byron said; “ in all but namea
King,” and, like Prince Hal, may have desired
to shake off his' loose companions. ...When
Colonel McMahon, the Prince’s private were-,
tary, announced that' he would no longer he
received at Carlton House, Brummell retorted
I made him, and 1 shall nnrnake hiin.’’. In
Moore's parody on the Prince’s letter of Fe
bruary 18tb, .1812, to the Duke of Tork; in
which he cut his Whig friends and took to his
heart Lord Eldon and the rest of his father’s
Tory ministers, allusion is thus macM.Hto Jji» (

Brammell’s cessation of Intimacy, with the
Prince did not in the least afiect his standing
in fashionablo society. He continued a. fre-.
qnent and favored guest of tho Doko and
DncheßS of York, at Oatlands, and he was fne
of the fOui 1 who gave a memorable fite at, the
Argyll Rooms, in Jniy, 1813.'' The other
three were Mr. Fierrepont, Lord Alvanlty,
and Sir Henry Mildmay. . These bad won an
immense sum at hazard, and determined to
expend it on a fiit. The Prince Regejt
would have been a desirable guest,' but he hid
quarrelled' with Mildmay as well as will
Brummell. However, he was Bounded ly
Fierrepont, who ascertained that ho wouti
accept the invitation. The foul given
of tho fete received him, and he shock
hands with Alvanley and Fierrepont, coldly
staring at the other two' as if he had
never seen them before., Brummell; wto was
a little in advance, had'the fall bemfit of this
gaze, and returned look for look, until tho
! Prince, abashed, withdrew his eyes md passed
on. At this moment, Brummell tink his re
venge. , Knowing how very, nnwlling . the
1 Prince was. to have his increasing >besity al
luded to, he turned ronnd, and askel, full in
the Prince’s hearing, “ Alvanley, wlo is your
fkt friend ?” From that moment jnded all
. hope of reconciliation. Brammell .refused to
attend the Prince to his carriage at he close
of the night,, and the Prince obswved, the
next day, < Had Brammell good-himoredly
taken 1 the cut f gave him. last night,l 'should
have renewed ,my .intimacy with Hm.” It
must be confessed that in this passagt of arms,
in which the Prince did not behave Ike a gen
tleman, Brummell had the beat bf it.
By this time, Brummelfa capital vas nearly
expended, and hts resources malnlylepended
upon the hazard of the die. When Alderman
Coombe, the brewer, who had hen Lord
Mayor of London in 1800, and aflfeced tObo
a man of fashion, lost £BOO to BnmmeH, at
Brookes’n Club, as he 'handed the cih to'the
Bean, the latter said: “ Thank yoi, Aider
man. For this, I shall always your
porter.” Coombe coolly anSwered.« Thank:
yon. 1 wish every other blaokgnart in Lon
don would do the same.” On onebccaslon,
in the early part of his career, Brtramell won
£25,000 at one sitting, and lost Ml of it, by
the same means, on tho following wak.
At last, Brummell was playid oit. This
was in 1816. Raising £l,OOO at nlnons in-i
terest, he took French leave of sodety, and
retreated to Calais. His own vertlin othisj
downfall Was that he had good lnck'ln every
thing while he kept in'his pocket a articular
. silver sixpence with a hole in it. Hr paid this
coin away, by accident, and Rom '.hat hour
misfortune aftermlsfortnne copblnd to.lay
him low. • '
Calais is as dull a town as any to rhich an
ex>Autocrat of fashion could bo exlsd. Yet
Bragimeil could jest upon it, in his «rn cue.
Some one said he must be lonesome and dull
there, and the Beau gaily asked,- '< Do not
you think that a gentleman might ntnage to
pass hlB time pleasantly between Lodon and
Paris 1”
At Calais, Brammell took room in the
house of Monsieur Leleux, in theßueßoyale:
it was at one time the Hotel d’Ang'eterre, and
in but a few yards from the Hofei de Ville.
Brummsll spent a considerable potion of his
El,ooo in handsomely fhrnishing tiese rooms,
and his gold dressing service waslaid out in
one of them, in great state and difnlty. One
of Tom Moore’s journals, dated November,
1822, mentions his having called.upon Brum
mell, while waiting at Calais fip thS 'bbat, and
adds “ Saw his fine toilette, (whbh tie-King
gave him in the days of his favo/) net out in
a little bedroom 8 feet by 9.” t
Soon after Brummell’s flight for jarls, his
fhmlture, paintings, buhl work, old Sdvres,
porcelain, chased plate, libtary, ay W ] ne
were sold by auction, by order of, tht sheriff
of Middlesex,” and realised’ Thero

Brummell sent a box of Borne particular'snuff

jM. Leveux, hia Palaisbankor; also, from Mr.
[Armstrong, a grocer at Caen, and two bankers
there. To make matters worse, Lord Palmor

SITUATION OF WILLIAMBPORT—SCBNIHY—FRANK
LIN RAILROAD—CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO CANAL —
THE WEATHER, CROPS, AO.
[Correspondence of Tbe Press.]
Williamsport, Md., June 1,1860.
The town of Williamsport is situated on the east
bank of tho Potomao river, r t the month of the
Conocoohesqhe creek. Tho population of the town
is about fourteen hundred, and there are some
very fine family residenoes and business houses
here. The Washington County Bank is located
here, an institution behind .none in the State of
Maryland for safety, and favorably known through
out the conntry. The streets of the town cross
each other at right angles, running north and
south, and east and west. Those streets running
east and west are eighty feet In width, and those
running north and south sixty-six feet wide.
The scenery around Williamsport is grand. To
the north may be seen - tbe outlines of the North
Mountain, lifting their lofty peaks toward tbe sky,
while on the south rocky ledges line tbe cane! and
river for a considerable distance. The country
east of town Is undulating, and is filled up
with many beautiful and highly-soltlrated forms,
with noat and finished farm-houses, giving ample
evidenoo of industrious and honest yeoftanry. On
the opposite side ef the river, in Virginia, the land
is hilly, and composed mostly-of slate, but is well
attended to.
The remains of a Revolutionary sire, Gen. Otho
Holland Williams, the founder of the town, repose
in a sarcophagus, enclosed in an iron railing, aboat
eight feet square, and four or five feet high, beside
those of a beloved and lamented son, Edward
Greene Williams, in the pubtio cemetery, on a high
and commanding mound, overlooking the beautiful
Potomao, on the west side of the town. The bones
of other distinguished dead rest in that oeme
tery.
Should the Franklin Railroad be extended to
Williamsport, a distance of six miles from Hagers
town, there would be a prospect of Philadelphia
reaping a rich benefit therefrom, aa thero la a char
ter for a railroad from here to Martinabnrg, Vir
ginia, a distance of thirteen miles, which would
certainly be made, thereby connecting Philadelphia
with Southwestern Virginia, Southern Kentucky,
and Western Tennessee, which trade is of some
value. Besides, by Completing the Franklin Rail*
road to this point, coal oould be shipped from Cum
berland to this place at a very small cost on the
oanal, whloh passes here,.supplying that railroad
with a fuel not surpassed by any in the Union.
There is also another consideration for completing
'the railroad to this point, and it is this; A better
site oould not be found for railroad maohine shops,
for repairing looomotlves, and other works con
nected with railroads; and there is no laok of water
for steam purposes. It is estimated the coat of
completing the Franklin Railroad from Hagerstown
to this town would be about $14,000 per mile, and
that of the Martinsbnrg Railroad some $lO,OOO or
$lB,OOO per mile.
The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal la in fine navi
gable order its entire length, 1841 miles, and boata
laden with coal for the District cities are passing
almost constantly, while upward-bound boats bring
the merchandise of the Southern cities.
The weather in this seotion of the country is de
lightful, and tho crops; never appeared more
promising, whloh makes glad the heart of the
fanner.
Yoatorday tho Chesapeake and Ohio Canal
ohanged officers, and those persons employed on'
this division of tho work, upon cessation of their
labors, marched to the tune of the violin and other
mualo (having their implements of warfare upon
their shoulders, suoh as pjoks and shovels, with
whloh to stop leakages and . breaks in tho canal)
through several streets of our town, oreating some
merriment. Yours, £o, - - Potomac.
Raising Bunns to Fight Locomotives.-—' The
other day, says the Pittsburg Chronicle , a plucky
Uttlo bull, which lives on the lino of the Cleveland
and Pittsburg Railroad, about six miles from
Wheeling, was gracing about near tho track and
picking tho fresh grass blades out from between
the oroas-tieflj when ho hoard a locomotive coming
down upon him. The locomotive whistled for the
bull to clear the track, whloh the bull made ah
effort to do, but being olosely crowded by the iroi
horse, and not being disposed to while
feather, even to a superior and fiory opponent, h|s
young bullshfp turned about, pawed the earth,
bowed his bead with the determination to give
his pursuer the best he had in the shop; The en
gineer seeing this, put on steam enough to knock
tho bull sky-high.. The two came together with a
terrible oraah. His bullship was knocked into an
“ infinite number of small pieces,” the engine was
thrown from the traok, and, like the oars behind it,
was ptastered and bedaubed with bloody meat and
ghastly gore. Theownerof this 111-fated but game
bovine, soma year or so ago, lost a steer in a simi
lar manner, for whloh the railroad company ro
fused to pay. Since that time he has been engaged
in the cultivation of game bulls to fight tho Cleve
land and Pittsburg engines. The animal whose
fate we have just obronioled was left out of Ms
Easture by his owner, with the expectation and the
Ppe that ho would eneounter the loooxnotive. We
heard the owner say, yesterday, that he had still
another bull, much larger and stronger, abd
tgamer, whloh be intended to let out in a few dxys
to fight tho engine.

Later from Japan. —The dates from Japan aro
down to the 15th of Marqh, and'as no mention is
made of tho death of . Townsend Harris, United
States consul general, the reports circulated in the
East are evidently incorrect.. The intelligence be
low will be found interesting:
Horrible Murders by Japanese.— The Atol
brings an account of a murder committed at Yoko
hama, at about half past seven o’olook in the eve
ning of the 26th of February. Captain De Vos, of
the Dutch brig Christian Louis, and Capt. Decker,
of the Dotoh Bohooner Henrietta Louis, were walk
ing through the broad street of Yokohama, when
they wero attacked by somo Japanese with swords.
The former was killed almost immediately; tho
lattor, in endeavoring to escape, was.seised by ono
of the assassins, wbo cut off his hand aud fore-arm.
He then walked about one hundred feet, when ho
fell down and was brutally murdered; Tho h*nd
was found about twonty yards from the ppot. Mr.
Devos was twenty-five yoarsof ago, and Mr. Decker
sixty. They wore both quiet, roßpectfblo roeD,
and had just left tboir friends to purchase somo
things before going on board ttaoir rhip?, when
they were attacked without the least provocation.

\ The heat over, the horses sooKcooled off well, aud

her in hand seeming, to wait for Patchen.
The slackened paco of the one, and the increased
pace of the other, soon brongbt Patchen up to with
in two longtbs of her nfc tbe'half-mile pole. And
now began a brush. -* At tha head of tha torn he
caught, withhfahead.covering h*r quarter; they
swept round the tern, stretch,
she having a lead of three-fourths of a length. A
fourth of a mile Is yet to be dose; every i&eh is to
be contested, and it was contested. ' A more beau

her. Inch by Inch he gained* hut all in vain, She
came home the winner of the heat by a neck in. 2
minutes 24 seconds.' The time, baa fallen off 8
seconds from the last heat, but this was owing to
the bad break made by Patchen is the second
quarter. From the half-mile pole they went to the
stand in 1 minute and & seconds!—the best half
mile ever trfitted!
Alter this heat the mare seemed distressed, and
did not cool off weti. The hone, tbooeh not ap
parently so much distressed, likewise did sot- 000 l

one could fati-tosee that if there waa bo break,
there would be a grand .third heat. Bets were
made on t. 22, and the hones, by their show, seem
ed to justify the bettisg;
! After three false starts they got away evenly,
rbat Flora at onoe took the lead,.and at the quarter
