It seems that some visitor mistook the Beau for Gen. Hick- man, of Kentucky, and the proprietor conse- quently thought, as Gen.

Soon after he became pretty well acquainted with Washin; he became the guide of such visitors to the capital as desired to patronize houses of ill-fame and gambling-houses, and in this way, it is said, sometimes made trom five to twenty-five dollars a day.

Soon after he 4 up and jumped out of the Window, and fell 10 feet on a pile of stones, bruising himself externally and internally. The use of the dream, as he asserts, was as follows: He and several others had been discussing what they would do in case of a railway collision such as the one on the Alton road. His idea was to jump out of the car window. When he went to sleep he commenced dreaming, and im- agined he was on a train about to collide, and, to save himself, he jumped ont of the window. ticulars, adgress President of the College. auc2l-2w CHT!
