HE'S CHANGED NOW.

The uncle of Sir Garnet Wolselej'a great grandfather was the Colonel Wolie* ley who ia the old "No Popery" dayi, gained the battle of Newtownbatler, and caused the Mayor of Scarborough to be well tossed in a blanket in the markets place for making a speech in favor of King James. When Sir Garnet Wolfe* ley was young be was a good deal of a fop in Dublin, as was the Duke of Wellington in his youth, and he used to drive a dr-'g with his brother's daily into Dyce's repository, now the family seat near Dublin. He then wore long curU. Time has worked much chance. He » now spare, lantern-jawed, with short grey hair, and a blonde moustache. In the field he wears a y«llow auu helmet, wound about with a handkerchief of check; his red coat is open at the chest, and spotted with many stains of grease; he has a variegntcJ cravat, a woollen shirt of a load pattern, grey checked trousers, yellow riding boots and spurs, and opera glass with yellow case and strap, and yellow revolver belt cartridge case; yellow gauntlets, a violet pocket handkerchief stuck ib his red coat, a gigantic pair of dark blue spectacles, and in bis hand-ho flourishes a fan to keep off the flies.
