A &eta of the Lije of a California Is- raelite, who is Reported to "lave Left ' 31O,C00,000 in Charity: A despatch from Wallenstein) Ger- 'Many, announces the death at that place of Michael Reese, the San Fran- cisco millionaire, who is reported d have left an estate worth $10,000,000. Mr. Reese was reputed to be the rich- est Jew in the United,States, and, with the exception: of Senator Sharon, the largest real estate owner in California. He was also known as a great miser, 'and' a most eccentric Mall in aaany re- spects. Born in Germany about 1810, be emigratedto.

Land soon began -to rise in price, but he would not sell except at prices considered, fabulads, and. wb.en htegat his price he would. im- mediately invest it in more laud.. All this time, too, he was carrying on a sort of a stock and note braking bus-iness; indeed his friends said that his business was inoney-taaking pure and simple; that he would go into any legitimate business to make money, and that Money he wa4-bound. to raake ha any business he undertook. Certain it is, that a few years after settling in San rranoiSCO, Michael Reese had the repu-- • tation of being a raillionaire, and -almost up to the time of his death, his fortune was steadily on the increase. •Mr. Reese was one of the first men to ° go into the bonanza stock speculations, andhewas on of the raost successful of the speoulators. His judgment in all *tatters pertaining, to stock and real :estate investments was' considered infal- lible, but no one but himself ever profit- ed by it, for the reason that he never gave a " point." ".,11 I have points," he would say, "1 will use them my -self. ..Points are my -fortune, Why give my :fortune away ?" ' Michael Reese's miserly habits were for many years the talk of San Fran- cisco. He would go t� the most absurd. lengtha to avoid. having to pay for a meal. Dining with a friend, he would., if his friend left any bread by Ids plate, ask his perraisaion to take it, so that he might be spared the expense of ordering more,' for he was an inamense eater, and be usually patronized 61 table d'hote res- taurants, where he ate $3 or $4 worth at a meal, On one occasion, it is re- lated, therestaurant keeper begged him. not to patronize him any mere, "for," said he, if you go on. eating. like this either you will bust or I shall." Mr. iteese's lawyer and niost intimate ac- quaintance was Mr. Felton, recently • dead. One day Mr. Reese astonished him beyond measure by inviting him to ainaer at a well-161.own restaurant, and asked him to bring five or six friends With Lira. Mr. Felton could not be- lieve his ears, but Mr. Reese repeated the invitation, and it was accepted. The some day Mr. Felton, six friends and Mr. Reese went to the restaurant, and dined. sumptuously, eating the most ex- pensive dishes and drinking the choicest wines. Mr. Reese was not seen to pay the bill however, and it afterwards turned out that he bad obtained a judg- ment against the restaurant • keeper - which the man was unable to pay,,hav- ing nothing in the world but his stock, so Mr. Reese was constrained, as he ex- pressed it, to take it out in eating."

" It has been impossible to determine. . I Equal to the Occasion. When Lord Liverpool. was forming hia ministry in 1822 he thought it abso- lutely necessary to have Canning at the Foreigu Office, although aware the ap- ppintment would be, ;obnoxious to George IV. The Duke of Wellington undertook the unpleasant task of corn- ' municating Lord Live.,2 °ors deter- mination, and went to, Brighton for that purpose. As Soon as the King knew what was wanted of him he broke -out: " Arthur, it is impossible. I said, on my honor as a gentleman, he should never be one of my rainisters again. 1 am sure you will agree with me that I can not do what I said on my honor as a gentleman I would not do." Another man would lia,ve been siltnced, but the great soldier, always ready for an emergency, replied: "Pardon me, Sire, but I do not agree with you at all. Your Majesty is not a gentleman." The bold assertion startled the king; but the duke went on: "Your.Majesty is ' not a gentleman., but th sovereign of England, with duties to our people far above any to yourself; arid these duties render it imperative that you should employ the abilities of Mr. Canning." " Well, Arthur," said. the king, drawing a long breath, -," if I must, I must." Although he did not like being told he was no gentleman, George IV had. once at least, while Regent, forgotten he was one. That was when he flung a glaSS of wine in Colonel 'Ilanalyn's face, With "Haralyn, you are a blackguard !"

THE EARLIEST, HARDIEST as yet just why ocean transportation has thus far been disastrous to swine. The sickness which has overtakenthem on shipboard has seemed to be of the nature of chplera, and has almost been. epidemic in its character. • Some have argued that it is caused. by the too sud- den change cif temperature and climate to which the i animals are subjected, be. ing brought directly through from the -west by rail and embarked in a hot and feverish condition. Those who advance this theory express the opinion that if the hogs were received in Boston a week or more before- the day of shipment, and were allowed to rest and cool off and recover !from the effects of their long journey by rail before, they would be able to endure the sea voyage with out material discomfort. I. This theory), however, would seem to lie upset by the fact that the Melita's hogs which ar- rived at W st Hartlepool in good con - clition, were: embarked and sailed from this port th , very day after they arrived from the wet; while a previous ship- ment made by S. D. Trowbridge & Co., (the same parties who consigned the live stock by the Melita) was allowed. to re- main here a week after its arrival from the west before it was put on shipboard. During this, time it was fed and care- fully cared. for, and was in excellent condition at the tirae of sispipment. In spite of these precautions, however, up- ward.s of half the animale died. upon the voyage toyer. . . "The hogs which come here from the west are very highly fed animals, and t-tre naturally rendered . uncomfortable _ by climate bhanges and by the. motion of the ship They have not the forti- tude of other animals, and. while cattle, sheep and horses have' nerve' enough to endure a certain amount of discom- fort witho t absolute • illness, swine • seem to be rendered so uncomfortable by it in any cases, as to pine away thing. . . and die.
