The United States war vessel North Carolina was then anchored at the Brook- lyn navy yard, having been converted in- to a re ing ship. Peter Featherstone was placed aboard of her, and there he entered upon his first attempt at reform. He had some experience as a sailor, was strong, brave and willing, ana soon fi:n'mv«l the favor of Gen. Enshaw and the ontswain. Glittering opportunities to return to erime always lln'|-.~n||l themselves to the reformer, and Peter Featherstone was not exempt. He had been known to the sporting Jr;llul'uiiy of London as a “‘clev- er boxer” and a “hard hitter, Among his old-time friends t vas John Mc- Graw, at one time light-weight pugilist champion of England, MeGraw had come to New Yorkand opened up a “free- and- " at 85 Division street, which he nad called the “Old House at Home.""

He has painted some pic- tures from these compositions which have commanded much attention and vespect, and art connoiseurs have pro- nounced him an artist ot no ordinary ability. He hasa number of composi- tions which he has prepared for painting, one called “The Rear Guard,” which will no doubt be a fine picture. .
