Cleveland is the strongest man.lii America In

that 'It It mere blessed te give than te

has declined gllta?"
i' I could tell you numerous llttle Instances
where he has practlced what the Ilible
toaches. Clovelaud H such a modest mau In
regard te hi own doings that he hates any
one te tell ulMiut his deeds of charity, yet he
Is charitable. Yeu have no Idea el tlie num

call them by that name bocause they are no
lietter than theso we meet en the street,
except that they use pen and paper rather
than Hit en the curbstone with tours nnd an
outstretched hand. Mr. Clovelaud often,
wl..m lm Is II roil at his dav's work. COOS

or ' nssorteU' loiters. He reads them for re
creation. The letters are usually pecullar

J-niiina
ones, selected elllier rer future use
the president's perusal. He often comes
across a begging letter, and I have known
him te sit down, after reading a touching ap
peal, and dash oil' a few words of sympathy
and slip a bank-nete botweeu the leaves el
the paper, fold it, ami direct the envelope.

Imposed upon as much by beggars as he Is

Clovelaud Is fend or dogs, but he made It a

as they arrived they were sent te the stable of
the executive mansion, and the proleasleuul

net return they were embroidered hat

Inte use the tlme he had given te the study
of law, nml made application for admission

deer clewed. It Is said that certain members
of the Yerk county bar, passed resolutions te
the ell'ect that no tiorsen should be recognized
as a lawyer who followed any ethor vocation
whilst preparing himself for admission.
Stevens Haw that the blew was aimed at him,
and he quletly went across the state line
into Maryland, and was admitted te the
Harford county bar.
The particulars of that admission are very
amusing, and Stevens was went te tell them
with the keenest relish. He was examined

Chase, a(terwanis impeached by the Cnltesi
States Senate, being the Judge of the court.

Of the many documents that have ceme

in his early manhood Hen Jonsen was con

he escaped an Ignominious death by plead

this felony with forleituroof his goods and

COME.S TO I.ANCASTIin.
The flery politician removed te Lancaster
in 181'J, whero he seen built up a large law
practice. This must have been ve"y ne3s
sary, for It Is related that at that time he was
JiMiO,000 in debt, which amount he redtlced
te $30,0)0 In 1SIU. In the latter year he took
hM seat In Congress, there remalniui; for
four years piling up additional Indobtedue-ss.
In that Thlrty-llrst Congress were seme nota neta nota
ble men. In the Sonate sat Hannibal Ham
lin, of Malno; Jehn I. Hale, of New Hauiv
shlre: Daniel S. Dickinsen and William 11.
Heward, or New Yerk ; Salmen I. Chase,
or Ohie ; Jeffersen Davis, el Mississippi :
Themas 11. Hen ten, of Missouri : I.ewls
Cass, or Michigan : Sam Housten, or Texas,
and the great triumvirate, Webster, Clay
nnd Calhoun. In the Heuse also were some
brilliant light : Kldbridge (lorry, of Malno ;
ltebert C. Wlnthrep, of Massai!husett.s ;
Alexander Stephens and Rebert Toombs, or
Georgia : Jethu.i Olddlngs, of Ohie, and
David Wllmel, of Pennsylvania.
With these skilled sbitosmen Stmens had
te ceh te make his way, mid In this his en
orgy and rugged personality largely aided
him. It is uulruitful te go ever his con
gressional caroer Irem his dofenso or the
Mlsaeuri compromise through all the vary
ing puases ei ins mionse nun slavery ideas
te the Jehnsen Impeachment, as they nre a
matter or recent history. In all hedlsplayed
rare nbllltv, united rrequently te rare un un
wiseom. His dogmatic ideas and total nn nn
scrupuleusness uulltted him rer ruling his
fellows, and It Is Just us well ler them that
he never had a very geed ehanee In his nub
ile lire te oxercise arbitrary authority. His
hostility te the Seuth was ene of ills greatest
hebbIes,nnd had he roumlned longer In public
allairs, he would probably have tlone what
lay In hit power te delay the era et peace and
reconciliation.
lluchanau and hlmself, political opponent,
were also lar from persenal Irleuds. The
story of their last meeting at Meuntville at
Dr. Henry Carpenter' wedding in 1S07 has
recently been told In theso columns. A year

"Here we struck the marvelleus prairie
region or Northeastern Mississippi, literally
a land flowing with milk nnd heney. An
interminable, fertile, rolling prairie lay
berore us in overy tiirociieu. me siuru mie
or the Confederacy had coinpelled the
planters te ellset every small Held or cotton
with a widoarea of corn, until the region had
boeenio known as the granary of the South Seuth South

owner devete his broadest Holds te the culti

tenth of nil his crop must be stacked for
public use iu crlbtat the slde or the .railroad.
It was an Important Incldontet our mis
sion te destroy overything which directly or
Indirectly could atlerd subsistence te the
ltebel terces:and during the two days fol
lowing our arrival at Okolona, whlle we
marched as far south as West Point, the sky
was red with the tlames of burning corn nnd
cotton. On a slngle plantation, our Hanking
party burned thirty-seven hundred bushels
or tlthe corn, which was cribbed near the
railroad ; no sooner was iLs light seen at the
plantation houses than hundreds or negrees
wlie Hwarmed rrem thelr quarters te Jein
our column, llred the rail-built cribs in
which the remaining nlue-tenths of the crop
was stored. Driven wuu wun tue inieciiiiu,
they set tlie torch te mansion heuse, stables
cotton-gin, and quarters, until the whole
vlllaco-IIke settlement was blazing in an un
checked coullagratien. Te see such wealth,
nnd the accumulated products et such vast
lalter, swept rrem the race et the ewrtli, gave
te tlie aspect et war a sauuenniK naeij,
which was In streug contrast te the peacetul
and harmless lire our brigade had thus tar
led. In all this pratrie region there is no
waste land, and the evidence or wealth und
fertility lay borero us in all directions. As
we inarched, the negrees came en maste
rrem overy plantation te join our column,
leaving only lire and abselute destruction
behind them, it was estimated that during
these two days' march two thousand slaves
ami ene thousand mules wero added te our

"The incidents of all this desolation wero
elten sickenlug and heart-rending ; delicate

In tholauguageof Henton, "if we fall, let
us fall with arms in our hands, irthe gal

every threadbare sail, and glve her te the

leg that he had net Intended, en rising, te
have said this much. Ills only object was te
move that the veteran statesnyan and Demo
crat, nnd rriend or Andrew Jacksen, should
addrcs the convention nt this time.
Mr. Grundy again rose, amid loud and en
thusiastic cheering, and preceeded.
A memorable spoech in the annals of Penn
sylvania politics was the " great speech of
Cel. Illgler" at the Heading Democratic
state convention in 1351. In that cenven
tien, it will be romemborod, thechler ques
tion was the contest botween the lligter ami
l''ra7.er delegates irem Lancaster city and
county. " The interest excited by this issue
was profound and universal," says a relater.
" It was the topic of conversation every
where ; and when it was at length reached
by the convention the lowest murmur of
conversation ceased, and silence and ab
sorbing attention at once pervaded the large
assemblage with which the court heuse was
threnged. The credentials et both sets or
delegates were read by the clinks. In these
or the lligler delegates, James I,. Reynolds,
esq., was substituted, as senatorial delegate,
for Wm. II. Forduey, esq., nud lu these of
the Krazer delogates Cel. Krazer was substi
tuted ler l'eter Martin, esq. At this stnge or
the proceedings Mr. Sterigere, or Montgom
ery, suggested the propriety or hearing two
el the claimants from each doleeatien en the
merlts of the case, which belhg en motion
agreed te, Mr. Amwuke, of the Frazer set,
proceedod te state thelr case. The detalls
wero very voluminous and involved refer
ences te a great number et inaccosslble
papers. Sgl9at issue was this : whether
the comlSTiltteo, which called the con
vention of m.jIi, 1S51, by the action or
which the Fordney delogates wero elected,
was at the time or calling that convention a
living and a regularly organlzed and author
ized body, having the right te act for the De
mecracy of Ijmcaster. air. AtuwaKe, m a
very respectable speech, contended It was
net He was follewod by Mr. Swarr, or the
same county, en the ether side, who alter a
brler reference te the necessity or saving the
time or the couventlon, read, In a most ele
gant and improsslve manner, the printed
statement or the claims or the party with
whom he was acting."
James Patterson, ulratn H. Swarr, Samuel
l'arker, Jes II. Haker, N. . Welle and Jas
U Koynelds wero the lluchanan-lllgler dole dele
gates; and after Mr. Swarr had presented
the case, Cel. Frazer Bpoke for several hours
until the oveulng adjournment. Alter the
reassembling ei the convention, Cel. Frazer
resumed his argument, and ongaged the at
tention of the delegates some two hours
longer. " His address was marked by great
earnestness and feeling, and general propri
ety ei manner." He was followed by James
iu Reynolds or Lancaster, " In a masterly
and convincing argument, supported with a
mass or facts that told with great effect in
the couventlon." Upen a vote tlie Dlglermeu
were admitted by 75 te 47. That or ceurse
euded the Frazer campaign. Sam. Illack,
the great campaign orator of his day, with
drew in a letter which he concluded in this
fashion': "I couslder the American Union
the greatest human Institution that was ever
formed. and next te the Christian religion, the
greatest blessing our misfortnnes have evor
met, te IliaKO easier me uurueus ei it weary
lifts and 1 regard even the danger or its ills
solution as a disaster most deeply te be do de do
plered. " We can groan and sweat without much
agony, tinder the lead of life's sorrows, se
long as we have a country. Hut take that
away and we have no heart for anything, and
no manhood te meet anything.
"When the Mozolle ex ploded some years
age, en the Ohie rlver, the arms and legs,
with the heads and hearts of men were seen
ttylng through the air. That was very like
a Union exploded, dlsmombered and de
stroyed. The mere horrible after Its destruc
tion, because or Its beauty befare.
It Is Imnosslble net te leve the thought
nnd thn moil who made tlie thetlcllU as well
expressed as this: ' The mates ej the Union,
distinct as the billows, and one like theata.'
And may we net add ; the waves of the Bea
roll In thelr appropriate spheres wrapping
themselves daily and nightly around each
ether, ami are breken only when driven
against the rock or the shore. The wisdom
of our fathersrislng from the mighty doep or
the spectral past, uoseecuos us te nveiu tue
breakers which tliay carefully and safely
Hiiimneu."
Well, lligler was nominated, anil when he
was Introduced te the couventlon, Just bolore
the ballet that nominated SetU Clever for
cmal commissioner, he made his great
speech. And this was the poreratlon :
The erdeal through which our glorious
Union has been struggling for seme tlme
past is net yet evor. The distant notes or
discontent are still hore. like the recoiling
surges or a mighty son. The haven or safety
is net fully attained ou the ene hand, nor has
the Uubiceu been entirely passed ou the
ether. The crisis is Mill critical, and calls
for the oxerclso ofgreat prudence, el skill, or
leve, of Justice and of firmness en the part or
ihose who are new at the helm of our ship or
stele. If well directed she will weather the
storm ; II unskilfully managed, she may
possibly be stranded. Seveuty-llve years
age she was launched en tlie troubled waves
e? political experiment, with hair masts
shattered sides open seam, lattored canvas
win, .iiiunnsiens in the crew. While thus
weak aud her crew inexperlenced, she en
countered the waves of prejudice and doubt,
and ever and anon the mighty breakers of
monarchical hostility. Her very helm, and
canvas and crew, are demanded by Urltlsh
tnsolenee. Hut she glides onward. Mho
next mounts the billows of Internal dissen
sion tormented at Hartferd i the bead winds
of nullification next threaten her iHh tha
less el a star from her Hag t thonext encoun
ters the ndverse winds and broakers of state
rights territorial rights and the extension of
slavery. Tlie violence and confusion el this
storm well nigh unmanned her seamen ; her
canvas Is trotted by the breeze her majes
tic masts bow (e the resistless winds and her
vast preKirtlnns are plnyed with by the
" raging billows." The alarm came all
hands te thn loscuewns the common cry,
ami he who hail heretofore rested en lils
couch came ; and he who had Inclines! te
mutiny came ; nnd he who had tlllTored with
his fellow sailor came : theso all united thelr
ellbrts i they sulslueil and Ixmnd the diso
bedient nnd turbulent of the crew, righted
thn masts adjusted the canvas and guided
the glorious old shin orstate te the haven of
sxfety net quite. She Is In full view, how hew how
cver, "masted, and canvased, and llagged,"
as was nover vesse 1 seen bolore. Her sides
are sound, her bottom copperod, and her
helm works well. She extends her cable for
the shore, nud thore Is hut ene bar, and that
a sand bar, in the way of her approach. Who,
let me ask. with an American heart in him,
will stand hynndnee her stranded enthlsT
Who will net reach out his hand ler that
cable 7 Who will net sacrlllce a tlthe et his
peculiar notions nnd Interests te bring this
glorious vessel Rafe Inte harbor ? Te main
tain n geed faith, my fellow cltlzens, the sev
eral measures or compromise, as adopted by
the late Congress as a final adjustment or the
vexatious slave controversy as 1 am deter
mined te de and as the Democracy of the
whele Union are constrained te de, may be
te reach for the cable, and te tie the old ves
sel tip safe In harbor.
.
I recall these specimens of the lervld ora
tory of the old masters of a past geuoratlen,
se that when the Yeung Man gees out te
Fldler's Green nnd depicts the green sorpent
twining Itselfareund the root or the Goddess
or Liberty, you will net laugh. And yet
even in that day I am net sure that the
"ship" speech oscaped seme quiet satire. The
Whigs made great tun of It Jack Ogle said
Illgler would make; " a geed canawl commis
sioner," judglngfrem hlsknowledge et navi
gation ; and lluchannn Hald the speech was
geed enough, "ir he had only lelt his d d
ship out."

Referring te the netable contributions or
"Unces" in the Saturdey extra Intklli
ciKNOKit, n Southern correspondent writes
me thus about the criticism or Cable In
"Drllt":
" I find much or Interest in reading the
depattment or Drift' in Saturday's IntKL
Mfir.NCKii. 1 agree with Uncas,' In ad
miring the ' wholesomenoss ' and ' artistic
finish ' or Mr. Cable's writings. But as
great acharm is his dramatic pewer. In ' Dr.
Sevier' ene can almost bear the drums beat
and see the Confedorato troops as they march
elf te the war ; then in the last words, faro fare
well and final departure by beat en Lake
I'entchartraln ; and in another chapter we
have the arrival of the Federal Heet ' when
tlie bells or New Orleans struck twenty.' I
am by no means sure, however, that Mr.
Cable is really conscientious lu his delinea
tions or Creele lire. Many who are unpreju
diced tell me that he does net faithfully
held the mirror up te nature ' In writing of
these French Americans. MonsignereCapel
says that Mr. Cable has outrageously mis
represented the Creele I I expect that he de
picts only the outside of their society, as he
acknowledged te Judge Oayarre, the histo
rian of Louisiana, that he (Mr. Cable) had
nover visited even ene prominent Creele
family ; and many New Orleans people be be be
llove that he has in his books slandered them
because of thelr exclusiveuess and flavored
his wares te suit the Nerthern market. In
the Orandlsslmes especially he soeius te
have catered te the Northern taste for the
sake of meney.
" It is net entirely correct te say that Mr.
Cable was driven from New Orleans by the
hatred of the Creoles, since the Amerlcau is
the predominating influence thore ; aud If
he had the respect of his own poeplo in this
city he could associate with them, for much
of the American soclety there is quite dis
tinct from the Creele.
" Thore is one characteristic mentioned by
Mr. Cable, however, In his Creoles of Louis
iana ' which is true of nearly all Southerners;
It Is that federal self-completeness which op
poses public co-eporatlvomoasuros ; Individ
uality has se long been festerod among us
that net until recently have we valued the
common weal or roallzed the necesslty of
combination. Even new you will constantly
llnd a lack of ' that community of feeling
which begets the study of reciprocal rights
and obligations and reveals the individual's
advantage In the promotion or the common
Interests.'
" Kugene Field, a native or Missouri and
a naturalized citizen of the world, says erMr.
Cable ' that he is cut out en a small plan
overy way ; he is a typical Yankee narrowed
down ; he may think he is a Southerner,
but he is net ; he must have originated away
down at the tip end or Cape Ced and grown
smaller instead cr larger ever slnce.' "
What de you think of him ?
