King, late medical in: tor of the United States navy, died in Philadelphia on Sunday, and though his remains were not buried till yes- terday, a will, which is supposed to have been forged, was_ presented for Mprobate on Wednes- day. Dr. King was the nephew aad heir o: Judge Edward King, who was constrained by the érratic ways of the young man to leave the estate ae trust, with power to dispese of it by will in the heir. The will that his intimate friends supposed was his last testament was executed in December last. It gave his wife $1,200 per annum, with $5.000 to his sister, and various bequests to intimate friends. The will poe by his widow purports t» ave been drawn by the deceased on th 3d of February. It is on a single sheet of paper, and leaves everything to the widow and her daughter by a_ first marriage, with George Dexter, the Boston millionaire and triend of Gould. as sole executors with full pow- ers. Mrs. Minnie E. King, the widow, is a beau- tiluland highly cultivated woman, a native of North Carolina. She resided in Norfolk, Va.. av the time che, alre: twice widowed, met Dr. King. She owned a house In Norfolk, which she claitaed was converted into cash wherewith to pay her last husband's debts. He had his roys- tering days in the time of the well-remembered German Club. Mrs. King’s friends say that a will was made leaving her evel on con- dition of her giving up the Norfolk house, ana that she has that will now where she can pro- duce itatany time. The February will is claimed to be bogus, the Signature be bearing evidence of having been trac ulated. ‘The only witness signed to it is James E. Hayes, who, in. ee — lavit, does not say that he saw Dr. King sign it, MERCANTILE HonoR.—The widow of a once prominent tobacconist of Petersburg, Va., has Hers received a check for between ‘three and four hundred dollars, under circumstances somewhat remarkable.

And now it is ex-Gov. Tilden who isin a bad way, and the ee papers assert that he is as Weak and infirm as aman of 80; that his hand sbakes with alsy; that bis eyes have the vacant look peculiar to old men, and that he walks with raimicuity, The public is also solemnly warned by the same reporter that “Governor Tilden cannot live” much longer, and certainly will never again do active work.

For years he has _ suffered with rheumatic gout, and while he was governor was too busy to follow the directions of his phy- sician. The malady finally settled in his hand, rae joints enlarged, two or three fingers of the left grew perfectly stiff, and the whole hand was unnerved. ‘The difficulty, however, does not extend beyond the wrist, and 13 not really serious. Were he anxtfous to conceal It, as is affirmed in the newspaper — rts, he could easily do so, by carryini ie unfortunate hand in the breast ol nis coat; but he never makes the slightest attempt and on the contrary, seems quite indifferent, ttul of ‘his aMiction.” I further from my friend that the old bach- elor is not at all the invalid represented; that he never misses a meai; that he has not had a sick day in at least five years: that he mounts and rides a fiery thoroughbred, and as for walking and climbing, he tires out all his friends, yoting and old, who visit him at Grey- stone; that he works more and sleeps less than any man she knows, and so it are his pow- ers of endurance and wonderful executive abil- ity, that he is able to accomplish with ease, more in three weeks than most men in five. Later in the day, when I read the report that the Hon. ex-Gov. had outwitted the sharpest financiers in the land, and thereby Kketed a cool. million or two, I concluded that it his hand was shaky his head was clear, and the Thetmatic gout had not wilted his active brain.

Upon taking the canvas from the old frame the name “Mrs. Washi ton” was found written upon the stretcher. Tho resemblance of the face to that of General Wash- ington is said to be remarkable. In fact, it looks like George Washington in cap and gown. —A gentleman of this city lately received from a friend traveling in Italy an interesting account of a visit made to the studio of Larkin G. Mead, the distinguished American sculptor, now residing in Florence, from which we make the following extract: “I cannot attempt to describe all the many works of art in his studio, models of what he has done, and of what he Proposes to execute. He has ‘been at work for nine years on bis groups for the Lincola monu- ment at Springfield. ‘wo have been completed and are onthe monument, and the remainder will be finished in about two years. He is now at work on the cavalry group. A horse has thrown his rider, and is leaping over him. I have never seen'in any work of artso fine a horse as this magnificent creature, his nostri!s distended, and every muscle instinct with the excitement of battle; Mr. Mead told me how much he had studied the best horses of the King” and others to prepare for his work, and he has. reason to be proud of his success. Mr. Mead also showed me the designs pro} for the re- iets on the Washington Monument at Washing- ton. They are to represent the four great acts of Washington’s life. The one finished ts the Surrender of Cornwallis, It will be thirty feet long, fifteen feet wide, and 1s to stand thirty feet above the terrace. It will contain a hun- died figures, all of life size, and It executed as proncet it will be one of the ee If not the largest, bronze relief in existence, and one a the! most elaborate. I trust nothing will yent the execution of this noble work, wi will add so much to the fame of the artist and Ss Washington such a grand work of art. e Monument should be finished, and at once, in a manner worthy of our country.” Publication Notes.
