It was at this time that be wrote: Heaven only knows where my fate may lead me, for at present I am like a feather wafted by the wind.

But his fate led hitn to reraaiu ia Washington City for a time, where he occupied liimself in mailing new acquaintances and gathering mate- rials for the commencement of his work on American Entomologyâ meanwhile using his influence toward the removal of the chief clerk, D. J. Browne. It has been said of Mr. Glover: lu his dealings with men he was just even to a degree that was generous; but his prejudices were strong and almost unyielding. He never forgot a kindness, nor was he in tae least delinquent in his recognition of a favor. It may be added that he never forgot an injury and rarely forgave it; and concerning his old chief, he always spoke in terms of most sub- lime contempt. He attaok^id his plagiaristic failings by means of the ^'deadly parallel" column, in the public press of thQ day, and wrote pages besides. His life of D. J. B, (not published), in the form of a dozen pen and ink caricatures, is as taking as a Thackeray sketch, the drawing being superlatively grotesque, while the explanations abound in telling hits. This set of drawings would bear reproduction were they not so personal. (The alligator's blood caricature is from this series.) ^.â â¢;^^. ojkad. a. drea-m iwhick mm ntyi ajLL a. fil/Hii/rru - (Ooyran^ Fig. 4.
