The speaker related how tho celebrated song was written The Ilrilish having captured Washington, returned to their vessids, carrying with them doctor Bcunei, a prominent citizen ami physician ot Upper Marolho. Mr. Key, with the hu--inission of the President, proceeded lo board the English fleet anil solicit his release Tho IJi ilish Admiral, Cochrane, upon whose flagship tlio doctor was imprisoned, being about to make an attack upon Baltimore, detained them both until the attack should have taken place. On the evening of the bombardment they were sent, together with General J. S.

Skinner, on board tlio American cartel, 'The which was anchored in sight of Port Mcilt'nry, with a guard of marines, to prevent their landing and carrying information to their unsuspecting countrymen. Fruin the deck the three friends caw the bombardment of Port Meliemy. which soon ensued. While the iioiiibardiiient lasted, Hie bombs bursting in ail was evidence that the fort had not surrendered. The firing ceased soon after midnight.

All was onco more still Havingnocoinmunica-tion wdlh the shore, the Americans wi re in grave doubt as to the result nf the light, and the fate of their many friends in the city. They awaitfd the dawn with the greatest solicitude. Then on that shore, dimly seen through the mist of the they discerned the flag they had watched at the twilight's last gleaming, still waving aboye the fort, and ibe broad stripes and bright stars, defiantly unfurled to the breeze, shone brightly as a beacon of hope to the beating hearts in the bright rays of the rising sun. It was on the dock of the Jlinden, between midnight and dawn, that the song was written, Whoso stanzas expressed tho feelings of thousands of eye-witnesses on shore. To their great joy, they soon learned that the attack upon Baltimore had failed, that ltoss was killed, and that the Britisli were ro-emluiaing the forces which had fought at North Point.

When the fleet ready to sail, Mr. Key and his friends was were released, and proceeded to Baltimore, where, from the rude substratum jotted (Town on the back of a letter, the song was reduced to its present form, and read to Judge Nicholson, ono of the gallant defenders of the fort. So pleased was he with it that ho had it printed by Samuel Sands, the apprentice of Captain Berry Edes, wdio was then off on defence duly, and copies of it were distributed among tho citizens.

Pa. A Romarkable Story. A NATIVE OF UNIONTOWN', I'A TUUNS UP AS CETEWAYO, KINO 01'' ZLI.LI.ANi). Tho following remarkable story was written by a geutlemfiit who professes to know-what lie is talking about. The stylo is something liko that of ono Joseph Mulhattan, rtliVis Orange ilo3som In southeast Africa, stretching up from the shores of the Indian Ocean to tho lofly summits of the Snow Mountains, bounded on the north by Mozambique, and on the souihbylhe Ilrilish Colonies, is the land of the Zulus, containing a numerous, warlike, negro Lying south of the tropic of Capricorn, its dusky inhabitants, enervated by heat, are menially aud physically superior to those ot the torrid zone.

For many months, the veterans of llritain, commanded by experienced gen-orals, have been defeated in battle after battle while endeavoring to subdue this brave peoph liraddock's awful repulse, one hundred and twenty-four yeaisago, 011 Iho banks of tlio Monungahela, was not so disastrous as the destruction a few weeks since of an English army in Zulu-land, when only a single soldier escaped to tell the taie. Later comes the news of the tragic death, at tlio hands of the Zulus, of Napoleon IV. the Prince Imperial of France. Little, however, thought tho people of Western Pennsylvania, that King Cele-wayo was born and partly raised in their loidst. Cetewayo, whose real nanio is Charles Manaway, was born of mulatto parents at Unioiitowu, Fnyctto county, March 8, 1S3S, aud consequently is now forty one years old.

He is a full cousin of John Manaway, tho wealthy colored proprietor of the Spottsylvania House, Uniontown. In LS4S, whon Charles was tea years old, his parents removed to Philadelphia, where he was educated by a wealthy gentleman for a missionary to Liberia. But in the heretofore studious boy ran away, and sailed for England. Enlisting in the liritish army, bo served through tlio Crimean war, receiving an ugly ilesh wound at tho storming of Sevastopol, lie is next beard of in tho French army during the Italian troubles, and although a mere youth, his letters from the seat of war to American newspapers attracted considerable attention. In 1859 he became a valet to a French nobleman, and in 1S01 went to England aud joined a Confederate privateer bound for Savannah, Georgia.

His color enabled him to convey contraband articles through the lines wiliiout suspicion. When Goneral John W. Geary was Military Governor of Savannah, Manaway deserted, joined the Federal army, and was commissioned First Lieutenant of a negro company. In a skirmish just at tho closo of the war, he received a severe, but not dangerous wound in the thigh, and was taken to a Philadelphia hospital. Alter his dischargo he visited Uniontown, but found few that knew or cared for him.

Returning to London, England, ho bocamo the servant, then tlio private secretary, of an English Colonel bound for the Capo of Good Hope. Hero, for two or three years, ho spent all his spare time in the study of military subjects. Deserting Hie Colonel, he smuggled himself on board a dutch merchant vessel, the Captain of which soon set him ashore at tho mouth of thoTuleka River, in Zululand. His native ability and acquired shrewdness made him at onco tho leader of the wild natives. In 1S09 ho had risen to Hie position of Graalg or Chief, and 1S71 was mado King.

Possessing a thorough knowledge of British resources and arts of war, and leading an army of as bravo warriors as ever went to battle, he has proven himself to be a King and a General who is equal, and it might be said superior, to tho very ablest liritish commanders.

IIo gets them in lino, and as they filo by tho President tho member introduces each one, which makes lots of votes for tho next lime. THE HAND-SHAKING HUSINES8.

There is something peculiar about this shaking bauds with Iho President of the United States, and thero aro peculiar ways of going through that greeting. Some folks seizo the President's hand in bolh of theirs others merely touch tho tips of his fingers; some grab him above tho wrist, and others think the iiardor they press tho hand tlio greater is the honor they enjoy. Tho old ladies always slop to ask how Mrs. Hayes is, and when Mrs. II ayos assists tho President in the reception, all tlio ladici, bolli young and old, invariably look after passing to boo what she lias Tl.o old men want to add a word or two of advico on political management as they pass, and tlio young man, when from tho rural parts, tries to appear as if he made a practice of being introduced to Presidents every day.

About two the president lakes lunch. He then reluri's to his room aud looks over tlio mail 'that concerns ollicial business. This nail is always briefed and laid on the table ready for his inspection. IIo directs what answers, if any, shall be sent. some jmnii CAI.I.EM.

Then tho persons whom be had niado arrangements to see during Iboaflernoon arrive. When they have left ho always takes a drive, unless the wenther prohibits. IIo returns from tlili drive in time for dinner. After dinner there arc more visitors In be seen visitors whoso business would occupy more' than the timo that could lie conveniently given during the day. The President is seldom able to join bis family afler dinner, pnqiifntly the only lime that, has with his family is before he goes to work in llie morning, at lunch ami at dinner.

Tii is is about the day's routine nt the house during the busy Congressional days. DuriugtliH summer the President drives in from the Soldier's Home about ten In the innrr.ing and returns early in tlio al'lernoen. IIo has but few callers. A great many peoplo go out to Iho Home to see him on business, later in the day. THE CAJUNET MKHTINOS.

On Tuesdays and Fridays there arc cabinet meetings. The members of tho cabinet drop in one by one, but they aro all on hand by twelve o'clock. Each member brings his portfolio. Tlio President sits at the head of tho table and Secretary Scluirz at the foot; on tho right next to the President is tlio Secretary of War and boyond him tho Postmaster General. On the left next to tho President sits the Secretary oj' tho Treasury, the next to bun the Secretary of tho Navy, and next to tho Secretary of the Interior 011 that side the Attorney-General.

Afler the cabinet meets it is ten or fifteen minutes before tho membeis get to work. That ten minutes is taken up in greetings aud oft-hand talk, in which tho spirit of fun and humor crops out a good deal. The cabinet are all men with a sunny, fun-loving sido when out of official harness. Judge Key is perhaps tho jollicat, though tho Attorney-General pushes him for that distinction. Secretary Thompson is a proverbial lover of a pleasant joko, while Secretary Schurz is hardly equalled in telling Secretary McCrary is a good story-teller.

Secretary Sherman does not indulge in humor often, but when he docs, it is, on account of its unexpected character, tho moro enjoyable. Secretary Eyarts is ono of thoso of tho quietly humorous sort. His fund of dry humor and wit is inexhaustible, and though not uproarious is keenly enjoyable. Tho President lias probably tho heartiest Cahi-inct that any President ever assembled around him. The old bores who keep at thorn day by day aro unmercifully dealt with by tho heads of tho Do-partmenls when they assemble.

Tho Attorney General seems to tako aspe-cial delight in joking Secretary Thompson. At a recent Cabinet meeting tho Naval Secretary tool; with him a list of midshipmen wiio had pased their examinations. The Secretary called attention to them and said that ho would like that their nominations for promotion to ensigns be sent to the Seiuito as soon as possible "as they aro worthy young men who liavo thoroughly won their spurs." Jlr. Thompson," interrupted Mr. Dovons, "how long since have they been wearing spurs in the At a later meeting the Attorney-General announced that there was a story alloat of a character so derogatory Lo tho inland marine Secretary that it ought to bo met.

Judge Key called out, let's have it!" "It was when he was first made Secretary," proceeded Judge De-veus willingly. A committee from tho Navy-yard invited him to 20 down on a visit of inspection. IIo was taken through the different shops and works, and finally on a man-of-war which was lying at the wharf. After being shown over tho different parts the captain stopped by tho hatchway, and asked tho Secretary to look down. Thompson took a look at some length and finally exclaimed My goodness thodurned old thing's The Naval Secretary bore the bantering with equanimity, and remarked that tho joko was a good one in its prime, but now had an ancient and lish-liko smell.

After this ten minutes of boy play before School, the President calls the meeting to order. The regular business is taken up, the Secretary of state leading of with his budget. The discussion is conducted in a conversational way. The meetings generally last about two ho urs. riiyfciciuns.

The hour for departure arrived and all the emigrant occupants ot this room were put in two coaches, bound for Kansas, Pittsburgh and St.

Louis nothing important took place. 1 notice here that the wheal crop in Ohio, Indiana and Illinois is very good at least the farmers say so themselves. Tlio corn crop is not very promising, being short and uneven. Oats are short bill well filled. I fell into conversation with gentleman on the train who pointed out to me Hie residence of Col.

My ticket called for a change of cars over the Iron Mountain route, tin Litlle Uock and Taxarkana, which is 41)0 miles from St.

Louis. The railroad is built through a thick forest, with tho exception of the first sixty-five miles from St. Louis. At liismark, about S.j miles from St. Louis, the railroad company are building large shops something like Alloona.

Everything appears to be alive there. What farm'ng is done along this route, the crops aro very good, corn being very large. Through Arkansas tho corn and cotton crop isgood- About two hundred yards before we reached Arcada station, at 7:30 o'clock, somebody entered our coach and shouted at the top of his voice, "Twenty minutes for refreshments," and the train came to a slop. There aro but two buildings near the railroad. One is used as a station and the other was des.

ignated in some kind of lettering, Kcsturaut, Hot Collee," but the doors and shutters of this building were shut. On looking to my right I noticed a building at least one hundred and twenty-tive yards and about seventy-seven decrees grade from the road, which was called the hotel. I toll you I got quito a bite there for 75 cents. It gave me an appetite going up to it, and weakness coining from it. After tho landlord had all ho wanted there, tho Uosturant was ordered to be opened.

Tho stock of provisions consisted of five apple pies, two loaves of bread, well inaiked with little dots by some insect a keg of lager, a threo gallon keg of old Rye, and live or six gallons of lemonade, at 15 cents per little glass. Grand thing, yes I 1 arrived at this placo Friday evening, July 12th, at Ucing very tired, I soon asked Mr. L. proprietor of tho Arlington House, for my room and bed. Having given thanks to the great conductor ot all affairs, I soon mado up my mind to consolidate threo nights of lost sleep into tlio fourth.

This morning I woke up in Texas, in good health and spirits. The cotton crop, as far as 1 have seen and heard, is good here; corn is middling, and is about ripe to cut up; peaches are plenty and cheap; water melons as large as nail kegs sell at fifteen and twenty cents some as low as eight and ten cents. Palestine isthecountyseat of Anderson county, and has about 3,000 citizens. Tho town is not well built. A few years ago fire burnt part of it, and tho now buildings that havo been erected look much better.

Work can be got bore by laborers and mechanics. Labor is worth St. 25. Carpenters can get $2.50. Hoarding is $5.00 per week.

The inhabitants are mostly of a mixture of Old Texans, French, Indians, Swedes, Scotch and Germans. The business men are princi-pallyjows. Saloon keepers and lightursaro not needed here at the present. Just as 1 write, four doors from my hotel a man is mortally stabbed in the breast. Tho as.

sassin called on him at a hotel, and asked him to como out, that tie wished to speak to him. Tho party otiyeed, and thomur-deror plunged a dirk into him and lied. Fifteen minutes later the train from Marshall arrived, and the deputy Sheriff noticed a man running, and called to him lo slop but he gavo 110 heed. Tlio next voico was pop pop pop 1 and the runaway received two shots in the back of bis neck. This brings me into Sunday afternoon.

This morning I asked a colored man how llie man was that got shot at tho railroad station. He replied, "Well, sab, bo's done breathing gon dead, colonel." Saloon and stores aro kept open hero nearly all day on Sunday. It seems that Sunday is the worst day for drunkards. Yesterday I tried Mr. A.

Them is probably no mini in tlio mini-try who does more work Hum tho 1'iesl. dent. Quito curtiiinly no in tlio country dues raoru irritating mill iijjprra-ynting work than tho I'resMont. It is pleasant ciioukIi to recoivo a social call or to shako hands witli a friend but when shaking hands becomes a duty and receiving all sorts of callers a necessity, the pleasure of tho thing dwindles most magnificently. President Ifayos begins work shortly after nine o'clock in tho morning.

lie then appears in TUB "rUKSIDENT's 1I00M," situated tho right wing of the Whito House. This is alnrge apartmentdilainly but liandsoniely furnished. II is on the second lloor and opens into the hall, and looks from its windows at the rear upon tho well kept grounds and tho l'otomac beyond also upon tho alleged "Washington monument. The Whito House, especially this room, is excellently ventilated. Uvon in tho most sultry summer days thero is always a pleasant breezo blowing through.

The President sits in a cane seated chair at a polished table about fifteen feet long and live broad. His faco is to the door. To his left, near tho wall, sits Mr. Webb Hayes. Hack of tho President is Mr.

Gustiu, his stenographer. Around tho room arc chairs and one or two sofas. Thero is but ono picture on the walls a life-sized portrait of George Washington, painted by a South American artist, and presented by tho President of tlio United Stales of Columbia. THE WHITE HOUSE CALLKKS. Although tho President is ready to receive callers at any early hour lie never finds visitors wanting.

Members of Congress and the President's advisers walk past tho doorkeeper without showing their cards. Other visitors must first send their cards in by Charley Leefilor, the doorkeeper. Sometimes thero mo as many as twenty people in tho room at a timo. Members of Congress take their turn at talking to tho President in tlio order in which they entered tho room, keeping tlio tally themselves. Tho President indicates to the others when hois ready to hear them.

Tho interviews aro short or long, generally tho former. When tho President desires to consult without interruption, with callers they retire to tho library adjoining. Everybody who calls is received except those upon business strictly pertaining to tlio different departments, such as minor appointments. The President positively refuses to hear applicants for such places. They are referred to tlio departments.

It is his rule not to interfere in any appointments in llie departments. The peoplo ho recoivea during Hie day up lo half-past two in tho afternoon, generally averago about two hundred. WHAT THEY WANT. As a general rulo each caller is on different business. Delegations sometimes take eight or ten in on the same mission except llallinioio delegation, which split up when they gel before tl.o President, and eacli man urges separate candidates.

Tho number of peoplo who call to pay their respects and shako hands" is great and growing. They inumblo something, seizo tho President's hand and depart. It is a great thing for tho principals of female seminaries in Hie adjoining States to bring on to Washington wholo batteries of beauty and bring them to bear upon tho President. ISridal parties are qliito numerous. Sometimes they announce to the President that they aro newly married, but whether they do or not tho fact is perfectly apparent.

When no attempt at tlio concealment of their happiness is made, tho President presents tho blooming, blushing brido Willi a flower from the largo, fragrant, bouquet thalisalwrys on his table. Whou concealment is intended ho looks unconscious while tho groom looks remarkably conscious. Tho President pays a good deal of attention to bridal parties, evidently remembering the timo when he was a happy and fortunate groom. Another class of visitors aroexcurtionists by tlio hundreds. Theso and largo delegations aro received in tho East room.

There are frequently as many as iivo hundred people in one of these excursions. Tlio members of Congress, whoso constituents they are, arrange with President for their reception. iiAJU'Kh 111 tick sin thins, Shoo lnr, new work and repairing dono hnioodstyhi.

Unfortunate as was the death of young Louis Napoleon at the hand of the savages, taken by surprise, enlisted in a cause of doubtful worthiness, and at best not a cause of his country or his own, his death was less unfortunate than that of his second cousin, the Duke of iteich-stadl, son of the groat emperor, who was king of Koine and heir to the French throne, and died at twenty-one a lieutenant in the Austrian artillery. There soems to bo a loiuarkable parallelism in the fortunes of these two princes. One died at twenty. one, the other was killed at twenty-three. Both had brilliant prospects at birth both wero barn after long and auxiousexpectation both wero only sons aud only children both lost their prestige and chances by the miliary downfall of their imperial fathers; both wero forced to quit thoir native country both wero educated in foreign military schools one in Austria, the other in England both wero of delicato constitution; both were amiable, without inheriting the paternal strength both pined for opportunities both came to an untimely end.

The two youths were as gentle and likeablo as their fathers wore Hellish, cruel and treacherous. Vet thoir fathers had magnificent success up to a certain time, and lost their power by overweening ambition. There is something very dramatic in the fact that the solo son of Napoloon the greatost force in modern times, should have sick-oned life away at Schonnbrunn, and that tho solo son of Napoleon 111. should bo pierced to death witli Zulu spears in a remote and barbarous land, and in a cause in which he had embarked simp'y for political effect. nllN A.
