Lahrbush, who celebrated Lia 103d birth-day afc the house of Gen. Watta de Peyster, . 59 East Twenty-first street, on the 9th o? March', 1868, bas indeed made a most extraordinary voyage of Ufe. . He was born almost coevally with the first outbreak which led to the Ame? rican Revolution; and ten years be? fore tho Declaration of Independence was planned, or thought of in earn? est. Louis XV was, then, King oj Franco; Frederick the Great was jual lifting Prussia out' of the de sol ut io ri of the Seven Yearn' War; Catherine II was Empress of Russia; Clement XfTT Pope; . Maria Theresa still swayed the destinies of Austria.. Hit birth took place abont a y eat af toi thc accession of Joseph II-tht liberal E-nperor of Germany, whose speculating father? Franois I, Wai actually a i contractor for- supplying the armies of Frederick the Great, fighting to humiliate his wife, Jo Beph's mother. Poland was still i kingdom ; and the Captain hos live* io see four Monarchs on the tbroni of England and fifteen suocessiv? sets of Governors in Prance, o whom two were Kings and two Em perora; one of the former d?capit?t cd, two twice enthroned and twie dethroned; and the Emperor twic enthroned and twice exiled. Ia 1789 ho entered the British arm; asa cadet of tho Croydon Militar, School. In 1793, with a rank equi Talent to that of Brevet Ensign o Second Lieutenant, 60th Rifles, b followed the Duke of York to Hoi land and participated in his cam Signs. Wellington was then only a j or of the 83d of the Line. H was present in 1798, when the Frene invasion of Ireland terminated wit the surrender of Humbert, at Ball namuck; and served as a volunte* nuder Kelson at the capture of Ct penhagen in 1801. He was preser at the battle of Jena and was nour) captured there by the French. H witnessed the meeting between Ale: ander and Napoleon on the raft in tb Niemen, 1807, and the conclusion < the peace of Tilsit. Having tht beheld the French despot at tl zenith of his power, he lived to guai him in the nadir of his abasements St. Helena, 1816-17. He describ Alexander as the handsomest man 1 ever saw; and Louisa, Queen i Prussia, as the most stately and bea ti ful woman. In 1808, Ensign Lahrbush, und . Wellington, received a badge honor for his condnct at Vimiera. ' 1808-9, he took part in all the actio fought against the French in Spai down to Busaco, in 1810. In tl terrible conflict, he won his prom iion to a lieutenancy, and receiv the thanks of his great command in general orders, for leading a ft lorn hope, in whioh he was left f dead on the field. A finger can laid in tho scar, in h[a heHd, "hi resulted from the wound then i ceived. For Talaveira, ho receiv tho Portuguese order of knighthoc so styled. In 1811, Lieut. Lahrbu sailed for tho Cape of Good Hoj and for the ensuing two years he v engaged in the Cuffir1 war, and, ono occasion, embarked with a < tachment for Algoa Bay, capturi an American prize, whioh was st for an equivalent to $160,000. 1816-17, twice, three months a timo, he formed part of the gut over Napoleon at St. Helena, says that no portrait of Napoleon truthful except those on his 1 frano pieces.

Both;suiyiv*d.. ^The- car^nki ] next wu sopejrtoteadeat i viot station nt Bathurst Ia 1S37^ he transferred Hi? to Tahiti, phonos he wade voj to India, Chino, and the adjacent archipelagoes. In 1842, the French haying usurped Tahiti, 'th^ir admirai deported huh to France for remarks in favor of thc Protestant mission? aries. The captain,1 in 1847, sailed to Jamaica, to assume tho. care Of, Lord Howard do Walder's estates After tho emancipation of the blacks, he came to New York, in 1848, ac? companied by his widowed daughter and her son, both of whom be soon after lost. Strange, extraordinary as his years hare been, the captain's mode of life is ?till more remarkable. In 1818, he found his only relief in opium for inflammatory rheumatism. He oom* men ced with half a grain, but in? creased the dose gradually to seventy five grains a day, and finally reached 200 grains in a single doso-at which point, he remained stationary for years. This immonse doss he took every midnight; and once in Aus? tralia he took 250 grains at a dose. On his voyage to France from Tahiti, haring no opium, he drank half a pint of laudanum for his usual dose, and saya that he fonnd that, quantity of laudanum in noways more danger? ous than tho same quantity of French red wine. In 1865, he rednced his daily dose of opium to twenty-four graims. The captain's habits of life are as different from those of other men as his years aud his medicine. Ho rises at 2 a. m., takes a nap nt 12 m., and goes to bed at 6 p. m. In his prime, the captain stood five feet1 nine inches. His figure is snoh as wonld indicate great powers of vi? tality. Capt. Lahrbnab still walks about lide a man of fifty. [New York Citizen, A STOUT FOB SWK&UERS.-A gen? tleman once heard a laboring man swear dreadfully in the presence of a number of his companions. He told bim it was a cowardly thing to swear in company, when he dared not to do it by himself. The man said he was not afraid to swear at any time or place. "I'll give you ten dollars," said the gentleman, "if you go into the vil? lage church-yard at 12 o'clock to? night, and swear the same oaths that you have ottered here, when you are alone with our God." "Agreed," said the man, "'tis an easy way of earning ten dollars." "Well, come to me to-morrow, and say you have done it, aud the money is yours." The time passed on, midnight came. The man went to the grave? yard. It was a night of pitchy dark? ness. As he entered tho gravo-yard not a sound was hoard; all was still as death. Then the gentleman's words, "alone with God," came over him with a wonderful power. The thought of the wickedness he bad committed, and what he had oome there to do, darted through his mind like a flash of lightning. He trem? bled as he fell on his knees, and in? stead of the dreadful oaths he caine to utter, the earnest cry went np, "God be merciful to me a sinner 1" The next day ho went to the gen? tleman and thanked him for what he bad done, and said ho resolved not to swear another oath as long as ho lived.
