THE FATE OF OEM*
There is in this city, says the Beaton
Mail, an old man of sixty, who graduated
at the University of Dublin, Ireland, at the
age of twenty-two, was admitted as a sur
geon in the British army, and in that ca
pacity visited this country with the Eng
lish ; was present at the destruction of
the public buildings, stores, &c., at Wash
ington city ; has been in India with the
British army ; bas been present, during his
service as a surgeon, at over four thousand
amputations, and fifteen severe battles;
was shot twice, performed surgical opera
tions on 3 wounded generals, 7 colonels,
20 captains, and over 11,005 officers of a
smaller grade, &c., has dined with two
kings, one Empress, one Emperor, the
Sultan, a Pope. innumerable great gener
als, &c. Has held in his hand the largest
diamond in the world except one. Has
had the Bri ish crown in his hand. Has
been Married three times, a father of 11
children, all of whom he has survived.—
Broken down by discrete, too poor to live
without employment, and too proud to be
come a pauper, he sailed in an emigrant
vessel to this country three years ago ;
and this man of remarkable adventures,
classic education, master of lour languages,
sixty years of age, poor, old and decay

So Wit Go.—The American Mechanic,
published at Pougkeepsiequatly remarks:
A man growls at paying a shilling for a
loaf of bead, thinking he ought to get it
for eleven pence, and the same evening
takes his family to witness the feats of a
magician, fur the purpose of being hum
bugged, and willingly pays a dollar for
the privilege I Another is too poor to pay
for a newspaper, but can spend a levy or
a quarter for every puppet show or fool
ish exhibition that travels the country, and
nut miss it. Another is too pour to pay
a few dollars, bet can attend all concerts
and negro performances that come along.
Ancither wants a meiltanic to work for
nine and sixpence, when he wants ten
shillings, and watches htm to see that he
labors faithfully, and the next day hires a
horse and wagon, at the expense of two
dollars. to travel ten miles to see • horse
race. Another , lbeats down" an old wom
an a penny on a bunch of radishes, and
before getting Nome spends two or three
shillings in treating hit friends: •

Born In S. Carolina, January A.D.
The•fitet of three men have ruled the
slopes of the Rocky Mountattui, , whole
names, aro associated forever with , shoat
vast ranges : Humboldt, the Nestor' of
Scientific. travellers; Audubon, the inter+
preter of nature ; and Fremont, the path.,

golderkgates of our Pacific, empire. His
lather was an emigrant gentlemen from
France, and his mother a lady front 'Vir
ginia. Although his death left his son en
Orphan in his fourth year he was .tho. ,
roughly educated ; and, when , at. the age
of ,seventaen, he graduated at Charleston
College. he contributed to the support of ' ,
his mother and her younger children.
From teaching mathematics he turned
his attention to civil engineering. in which
he displayed so much 4aleut, that ho wee
recommended by Mr. Poinsett, secretary of
War, to Nicollet, as his assistant in the
survey of the tipper Mississippi. Two
years he was it ith that learned man in his
field labors, and he Won his applause and
friendship. On his return to Washington
he continued hisser vices to the geograph
er for two years longer, in drawing from '
his field-book the great map _which, maid
ed to science the vast tract the had explor
ed. Thirsting for adVentu re, he now plan.
ned the first of those distant and perilous
expeditions which have given lustre to his
name. Having received a lieutenant's
commission in the corps of Topographical
Engineers, he proposed to the Secretary
of War to penetrate the Rocky Mountains.
His plan was approved, and in 1842, With
a handful of men gathered on the Missouri
frontier, he reached and explored the South
Pass. He achieved more than his instruc
tions
required. He not only fixed the lo
cality and character of the great pass tiro'
which myriads are now pressing to Cali.,
lornia—he defined the astronomy, geogra;-
phy, botany, geology, and meteorology of
the country, and designated the route since
followed, and the points from which the,
flag of the Union is now flying from a chain
of wilderness fortresses.
His report was printed by the Senate,
translated into foreign langtiagei, and the
scientific world looked on Fremont as one
of its benefactors. Impatient, however,
for broader and more hazardous fields, he
planned a new expedition to the distant
territory of Oregon. His first had carried
him to the summits of the Rocky- Moun
tains. Wilkes had surveyed the tide-wa
ter regions of the Columbia river ; between
the two explores lay a tract of a thousand
miles, which was a blank in reogra phy.—
In May, 1843, he left the frontier of Mis
souri, and in November he stood on Fort
Vancouver, with the calm waters of the
Pacific at his feet. He had approached
the Mountains by a new line, scaled their
summits south of the South Pass, deflected
to the Great Salt Lake, and pushed exam
inations right and left along his entire
course.
He joined his survey to Wilkes' explor
ing expedition, and his orders were fulfil
led. But he had opened one route to the
Columbia; and he wished to find another.
There was a vast region south of his line,
invested with fabulous interest, and he
longed to apply it to the test of exact science.
it was the beginning of winter. Without
resources, adequate supplies, or even a
guide, and with only twenty-five compor
t ions, he turned his fate once more towards
I the Rocky Mountains. Then began that
wonderful expedition, filled with roe/antic
I achievements, daring—and suffering; in

kiveas standing the heavy sixteen pound

one place a deep furrow, and cutting down a
treepte.atubble in another. It is remark:
able how each hind of Missile has its win
characteristic. There is a tremulous howl
ofilie round large shot, the whistle of a
musket hall, the hiss of the shell, like that
of the Catherine wheel tiro work, and
then Its 'detonation as it bursts. Of thev:e
hist, many exploded hartuleas in the 3 , ,ir ;
but where one fell and did its , office, the
effect was fearful. One such strtv.tli an
officer in the breast, exploded et shat in
stant, struck down a man to the right, and
left, and cut off the upper part al the offi
cers body in such a fashion that his fright
ened horse galloped off some distance with
the fret of the Corpse in the stitrups.—
Such are the spectacles uhich the field of
battle occasionally presents. Not far off
lay a Piedmodtese artillerist who had been
struck on the forehead with a spent six
pound shot, which remained in the wound.
A hussar had been killed at the same in
stant with his horse, by a shot which had
passed the neck of the latter ; they had
sunk together, the rider still on the saddle,
and the sabre still in his hand..
The. sudden collapse of a man in full
vigor is what is die most fearful to behold.
One sinks without agroan, another jumps
high from the ground with a shriek, lads
over, lies stiff, and is dead ! 1 saw a
Granter from the Banat, with a ball in his
forehead, falter a fow paces, leaning on his
musket like a drunken man, and then, af
