6 BERESFORD’S BOOK. The Adventurer Makes a Racy Writer, GAMBLING WITH WALES. Killing a Tiger in India and Bucking a Tiger in France. Interesting Reading. Tbe advance sheet of Beresford’s book are out, and copious extracts printed in the Atlanta Journal furnish racj reading. The bogus Lord tells of killing tiger in India, playing biccorat with the priuc< of Wales at Monte Carlo, and bucking a tiger in San Francisco. It is all rich and racy, but the raciest of all is his account of his first trip to Rome, which is as followt: He tells of his departure from New York to Rome, Ga., and of his visit next day to the Etna property, in company with the Hamiltons. Os this he says: “In due course we reached our desti nation, and Mr. Alexander Hamilton drove me all over the place in his buggy, and from what I saw, together with his reports and statistics, I was favorably impressed. After supper Mr. Alexander Hamilton and Mr. McGuire and myself had a long consultation, every detail be ing entered into, and at the conclusion of the interview I had almost decided to' make the trade. The price asked was ’ five hundred thousand dollars fo’the property, with the understanding that an additional five hundred thousand happen on building a hotel, bank, car wheel shop, et “ Mr. Alex. Hamilton painted every thing in the most glowing colors, and among other things said that the profits on the car wheel shops alone wou.d be tfn thousand dollars a month. This seemed rather too good to be tiu", and Mr. McGuire tried to smooth over the error, but it made an impression on m< that I did not forget. Early next morn ing Mr. McGuire left for New York, and his last woidi to me were eulogies of the honor of tbe Hamiltons, and expressed the hope that I vsou’d consummate the trifle with tbem. “I remained at Etna for another day. and had several conversations with ths Hamilton brothers, aud before leaving agreed to go to E igland aud form a com pany to raise one million dollars for the purchase and improvement of Etna tow n and furnace. ••Mr. Aleck Hamilton expressed a de sire co retain an interest in tbe property. an.ni was finally decided that he_ won d ifcLundred and fipyluousard d< - a;.c? iu c.i-h. then took me for a forgetting to point out the va rious buildings and lots owned by the different members of his family. “After di o’hor drive i ■: a closed carriage and a call on Col. D. B. Hamil ton, father of the young men whom I have already mentioned. The Colonel received me with open arms and made me promise to dine at his bouse on the fol lowing day. Ou our return to Mr. Al fred’s house found several sisters, cous ins and aunts, and there was evidently a preconcerted arrangement to treat me right royally. I did not obj ct and, in fact enjoyed myself immensely. My firsi stay in Rome will always boa pleasura ble remembrance. I had a taste of true southern hospitality, which is seldom equaled and never excelled. “My second visit, however—but, as Rudyard Kipling says, ‘ I'hat is another storv.’ “We had a musical evening, both Miss A. and Miss C. being accomplished musi cians. The latter also afforded us con siderable merriment by her quaint ren dering of some plantation ditties. _ “Before retiring Mr. Alfred asked me at what time I usual y breakfasted.

Ho courteously made mo bCditvc that this hour exactly suited his domestic arrangements, although at the '.time I thought I noticed a slight elevation cf I nis eyebrows, betokening surprise. I ave since learned that he and bis fami y invariably breakfasted nt 7 o’clock, ■nd that I must have materially upset noir culinary arrangement. “Ou wishing me good night Mr. Ham ton said he wou d have me called at B:3D. I had a good uighi’s rest, and was -.till in the arms of Morpheus, dreaming >f mountains of iron orc, colossal hotel nuddings and myself president of the new Etna bank, when I was awakened by a loud knocking at the door, was considerably ami zed when a regro serv ■nt with a most serious faca greeted me wi h the following question: “ ‘My God ! Ain’t, you up yet?’ “At first I thought the man was crazy, and was convinced ih»t he certainly was quite out of his mind when I asked him if be could bring me a little hot water, he replied: “‘Done brought it! My God! Outside de doab.’ “At the breakfast table I repeated what the darky had said, and my hearers were convulsed with laughter. It appears that Mr. Hamilton had instructed the serv ants toe ill me ‘My Lord,’ and they bad been a little mix. d as to the word. The clirnuX was reached when a bright mu latto girl c ima into the room with a plate < f hot. biscuits, walked directly to my side, and modestly raid, in a tone of iwe, ‘My G< d, have a biscuit?’ “Shortly after breakfast the carriage was ordered, and I went with Mr. Har per Hamilton to his office, where Col onel D. B. Hamilton awaited me, and here made final arrangements to take he whole of tbe Etna property for the sum of one million dollars, under the condition agreed upon with Mr. Aleck Hamilton. “The transaction was in fact ccn eluded, although no papers were signed, but it was distinctly understood that all docum. nts would be prepared ready for signature by the time I returned from E igland, which I expected would be in ,ne mouth. With Colonel Hamilton’s knowledge, I cabled to Mr. Pendleton, in London: “ ‘Decided to purchase whole of Etna.’ “Not only Colouel Hamilton aud his sons expressed their gratification that the trade was made and castles in the air were p’eitifully built by all parties con ... rded. A beautiful repast was prepared et ihe - I met member of the family, Colonel barks Harper, who a'so wentinto eu stacies over Etna, and congratulated me m ob aining such a magnificent invest ment. “During the whole of my stay in Rome I was not introduced to a living soul out side the Hamilton’s immediate family circle, so I bad no opportunity of ac quiring any information from anyone, even had I been so inclined.” He goes on to say that someone on the train told him that the Etna property was only worth $50,000, at which he re marked : “Hero was food for reflection—Etna not worth sis y thousand dollars, aud the owners trying to sell it for a million. No wonder they kept me right under their own eyes in Rome and did not lose sight of mo or introduce me to tbe residents.
