Samual Brohl & Company

waiting for something better, has he become an humble teacher? has he
attempted a new matrimonial enterprise? has he become a reporter of
the /New York Herald/, or a politician in one of the Northern States,
or a carpet-bagger in South Carolina? does he dream of being some day
President of the glorious republic with the starry banner? 

Up to the present time, no American journal has devoted the shortest
paragraph to him.  Adventurers are beings who constantly vanish and
reappear; they belong to the family of divers; but, after many
plunges, they always end by some catastrophe.  The wave supports the
drowning man an instant, then bears him away and drags him down to the
depths of the briny abyss; there is heard a splash, a ripple, a hoarse
cry, followed by a smothered groan, and Samuel Brohl is no more! For
some days the question is agitated whether his real name is Brohl,
Kicks, or Larinski; soon something else is talked about, and his
memory becomes a prey to eternal silence.
