in the Neapolitan army, says: A Brigadier
General by the name of Briganfi, having sold ;
himself and brigade to Garabuldi for a stated
sum of 840,000, was suspected of treason by a 1
drummer, who gave notice of it to twelve sol
diers. (like himself faithful to the King,) and
at the inomenP when the General was aceom- !
plishing his abominable deed, he was fired at!
by the soldiers, and killed # on the spot. The
General bad a s<n who was an officer in* Neap’-

A Mon of the .Millionaire Anlor.
One who frequents Broadway or any of our
fashionable proftienades, will notice the daily
walk gentleman who saunters leisurely
uftmg, fallowed quite closely by a man, apparent
ly bent under seventy years, and stooping so
constantly as to seeui almost to crouch* as be
walks. He follows his leader like a shadow,
and goes into all possible places with his attens
dant. The feeble y!d nuyi is John Jacob As
tof, son of the famed Astor whose name’ B
identified with the Astor Library, lie “was a
bright and promising boy, <Mid till the aye of o
seven tcotP gave evidence of much genius, Be
ports vary as to the ca ise of his mental decline;•
hut tli£ best accounts attribute 1t to the mental
forcing system, and to the intense study that
occupied his ea*vly years, k'u; true it is that
lip has been for years a hopeless imbecile, and
lias been as much more care than an in taut as a
strongyyid athletic person can he. Ample pro- e
vision has also betpt made for al4 the •omfort
he is able to enjoy.* An e.eganj mansion on
Fourteenth street is his ujoode. It is fitted up
with elegance and taste. A yard, e coin prising* *
anysntire sqifctre, secures all Jibe privacy that is
heeded. Boom l\fl- walking, rfding on horse
back and iWr recitation is afforded. * iiorSes,
carriages and servants wait ofl his ct^ll.
The gentleman who has tb? c-ifre of AJ r. As ‘
tor has long devoted himself solely to him —’
He *lfuß such. eoinniand o\*tr him that he *ea?i
giflde and control him at will. whiter no one else
can do. Ample compensation is given to the
attendant. lie has the hvifcse and all the ser
vants, the equipage and everyth ingoat his com
mand. Besides a liberaj provision made for
Jiiiu in Astor* wfll, he receives alcove tin; housq
and Jiving the siftn f annum. But
lie is not alone an bout* Sleeping, waking,
walking, at home, abroad, &>rrifling. Mr. Astor
is with him, makes one at his table, is one w>f
’ |* b
the invited guests at all places, and in all his
movements follows him. ‘1 he famijy of Mr. As
torare k°ind and tejider to their relation, visit

A Meries of Meverc Winters Predicted.
A French meteorologist named lienou pre 1
dieted a serfes of severe winters, of which the
approaching winter is to be the first and that
of 1871 the most severe. Mr. lienou thinks
he lias discovered that these groups of severe
winters return in forty one years, and that the
increase of spots on the sun indicates them. —
lie also finds thaf unusual displays of aurora
borealis and irequent earthquakes are simultane
ous with the increase o| spots on the sun and
severe winters.
