' The distinguished William Wirt, with-,jn six or eight months after his first marriage, became addicted to intemperance, the effect of which operated strongly on 'the mind and health of bis wife, aud in a ,iew months more she was numbered with itlie dead. Her death led him to leave the ''country where be resided, and he moved "to lJiclunoiid where he soon rose to distinction. Hut his habits hung about him, ind occasionally he was found with jolly and frolicksoniespirit in bacchanalian rev "ttlry. His true triends expostulated with ' liini to conviiicc him of tha injury he was Jjftuiug himself. But he still persisted. , 1 Lis j.riK'tice begun to fall off, and maiiy "hiokcd 011 him as on the sure ro;u' to rain, "lie was advised to get married with a view correcting his li tints..

If ho met her in her carriage or on foot ho popped around tho nearest corner. She at lustaddresed him a noto under her own hand, inviting him to her house, which he finally gathered courage enough to accept. He told her if alio still bore affection to him he would aree to her own terms. Ilor reply was: ' My conditions are now what tlioy ever have been." "Then," said Wirt, "I aocopt them." They were soou married, and from that day he kept his word, and his affairs brightened, whilo honors uud glury gathered thick upon his brow.

J would be recognized, for I would be Commandi r-in-Chicf of Ohio, and 1 out I recall Lincoln's hirelings from their invaded soil, for 1 would do it ivgar 'less of the howl of the professed that "Fighting Joe Hooker; had just been driven back across the Rappahannock, and that great chieftain of our allies, Gen-Lee, was projecting what we then, believ : tc bo a permanent expedition into the free States, which I recommended as a measure of retaliation in my New Jersey speech a measure I then and now believe to be perfectly justifiable, for did not the North invade theSouth? And by the way, 1 have somewhat against that matchless General of '-.Masterly Inactivity," Gen McCIellan, for allowing himself to be persuaded to send an invading hordo against our friends; but I have this consolation left me, that of knowing that through no vote ot mine did one ma i or one dollar go ti . waul making up that mercenary horde.

Ono moru-iuj; I saw eluse by my tent a very larc clia uieluun, hauling on a bush. I immo-diately secured him. and provided a bos for him. In tho ei.Ui-i.-e of a few days ho became quite familiar; and having seen thcin before, I knew how to gain his affections, which, in the first placo, was done by feeding him well, and in the next placo by H-ratchins his back with a feather. I ued to put Iii tn tin my labia at breakfast, and in the cour-c of a very few minutes 1 have ficcu hiiu devour at least Ol'ty flies, catching them in tho most dextrous manner with his loiig, slimy tongue; uor docs he ever move lroiu ti n position; but no sure as an unfortunate fly comes in reach. so sure he is caught, ami Willi the rapid ity ol thought, la tlie ioreuoon 1 always gave hint a slite of bread, which he de voured, and hu generally supped on ns many Hies as he cuiild uiaiisge to entrap, setting at defiance the noble Hamlet's the- ury of tin chameleon a ileatli. rroiniscs would not have suited him at all, being at tho end of each day considerably moie like a crammed capon than an air-fed chameleon. It is not truo that this animal will change color according to what he is put on; ho will change thade according us ho is pleased or displeased. Ilia general hue is a bright green, with small gold ppotn over his body; ha remains at this shade when he is highly pleased, by-being in the sun, or being fed, or scratched which he delights in. When angry and he is easilv made 89 his huo chances to a dusky creen, almost black, and the gold spots nre not to be seen; but I never coald perceive any other color on his body but green, in a variety of shades. The spots enlarge very much when he is in good humor so much, indeed, ns to give a yellow tinge to the upper part of the animal; hut in general they tirs merely litttle yellow spots here and there, on the back and sides.
