Hon. Andrew Stewart, of Fayette
county, a venerable ex Member of Con

thousand dollars as the basis of a fund,

and when these children are all provided
or, the income to go to their children.
The proposition is a very meritorious
one.
Social (lathering eriea of Different Pc
UticaJ Tlew. la Philadelphia.
On the 10th inst. a number ol citiaens
of Philadtipbia, regardless of the various
phases of politics, joined in aa honorary
banquet to the retiring Democratic Mayor
Daniel M. Fox. .The entertaintneut
came off at the Academy of Music. Po
litical differences of opinion were entirely
iguored in this most agreeable social gaih
eiing. In cities, towns, and rural dis
tricts, it too frequently happens that the
political and religious belief is looked at
in the make up of such entertainment. .
Toleration where it is; not used to the
defamation of individuals and the injury
of society generally is the vital spirit of
our institutions. In this case both the
outgoing Mayor, Mr! Fox,r and tLe in
coming Mayor, Mr. Stoke!?, were pres
ent, as well as many prominent members
of both parties, Col. McClure, well known
to the citizens of Juniata. Morton Mc
Michael, Geueral Meade, aud John W.
Forney were present. Col. Forney
sounded the key-note in the following
speech :
I do not know, Mr. President, any
more delightful or more useful custom
than social intercourse between men of
different opinions. It is the very best
preparation for a wise and profitable tol
eration. I have always believed that if
my editorial associates of all sides could
more frequently meet aud mingle it would
not only be better for themselves but
better fur tLe community. They might
differ never so idtly or so warmly, yet
they would rarely trauscend the boun
daries of propriety. One is always re
strained from epenLitig bitterly of those
who have been kind to us, whose house
we vicit, and whose hospitality we sb ire.
We meet to night not to do honor to the
late Democratic Mayor of Philadelphia,
uot to applaud His particular adminis
tration or its measures, but to express our
sense of the personal qualities of Daniel
M. Fox of bis kiud heart, his genial
nature, Lis courtesy, aud his integrity ;
and iu applauding these qualities, as I
most cheerful do, with sincere emphasis,
I am uot the less free to express my dis
sent from bis political opinions. When
we cease to recognize such attributes as
those wbich make him welcome iu all cir
cles, our relations, one to the other, must
be harsh indeed. May that hour be tar
off when the standard by which we are
to judge our fellow creatures is the stand
ards ol party, and may we never loose
sight of wbat ought to be an ever pres
ent and primary duty the duty of soft
ening the asperities of politics, of discus
sing great questions with candor and for
bearance, and of unity npon the catholic
platform of an universal humauity. I
voted against Mr. Fox more than once,
aud probably should vote against him if
he were a cau.iiiUte for any office to mor
row, as doubtless he would vote against
me if ever I were placed in any such po
sition ; but I should be ashamed of my
self if I were not free to give him my
hand iu every good work.
We meet to-nlylit not as Democrats,
not as Republicans, but as Philadclphians
as Penusylvanians, as Americans, warm
and sincere iu ihe com pi i snout we pay a
man wilb wbuui iiiiny of ue re t ieau
on the mere passing politics of the hour,
but with whom we all agree upon the more
enduring considerations of friendships,
love of country, and pride of city and of
State.
Sport for Alexis.
It is well kuown that for some time
preparations have been making for a
grand buffalo hunt, for the' pleasure of
I'rince Alexis The preparations were
all perfected last week, and the Ducal
paity bad arrived in the vicinity of the
hunting ground. The Prince, by this
time, bas doubtless eaten of the choicest
pieces of the buffalo killed by Lis own
hands. A despatch from the North
Platte, dated Jan. 13th, speaks of the
arrival of the party there, aud describes
the hunting camp as follows :
Alexis and party arrived here at 7 A.
M to day. They breakfasted on the
cars at 5 a. M. The ambulances aud
light wagons f r the bsggtge and a car
riage for the Grand Duke met the party,
and they started immediately for the
camp.
The permanent camp for the bnffalo
hunt is on the Red Willow Creek, about
fifty miles southwest of this point. The
camp ceusists of two hospital tents, ten
wall tents, and a tent for servants aud
soldiers. Three of thu wall tents are
floored, aud that of the Grand Duke is
carpeted Bix and sibley stoves are
provided for thu hospital and wall tents,
and the hospital tents will be used for
dining in. An extensive culinary outfit
is also taken along, aud also t-ti thou
sand rations each of flout, sugar aud cof
fee, and one thousand pounds of tobacco
for the ludians.
Company C, of the 21 Cavalry, under
con.mand of Captain Egan, is at the
camp. They went nut several days ago,
and have everything in the best possible
shape Company E 2d Cavalry, under
Lieutenant Hover, acts as the escorts
for the party to the camp, and the whole
is under the command of General Pal
mer, of Omaha barracks. Lieutenant
Hays is quartermaster of the expedition
Mr. Cody, alias "Bouffalo Bill," met the
Duke and party here A relay of horses
is at Mediciue Cieek, about half way to
the camp, and the party expect to make
the trip in eight hours. Bnffalo are plen
tiful within ten miles of the camp.
A few hours ago four hundred Indians
were reported at the camp with their fam
ilies, and others were coining in rapidlv.
It is expected that war parties of Spotted
Tail, Whistler, War Bonnet, and Black
Hat will be there with their respective
chiefs and bauds.

J. Flak's and Mist Mansfield's Letters.
At one time Fitk occupied a high
place in the affections of Miss Mansfield.
During this romantic and lovely period
of hi existence, he wrote to his love nu
merous letters that had better never been
written. For some reason be fell from
that estate of love, leaving many eviden
ces of his folly in the form of letters, iu
the hands of Miss Mansfield.
Stokes, being iu high favor with the
woman, was informed of the existence of
the letters, and, ( as the story runs, he
urged the woman' to give them to the
public, if Fisk did not comply with cer
tain financial demands that she made of
bim. Fisk was also sued for slander by
Miss Mansfield. The case ended in his
favor, to the great discomfeiture of Stokes
and the woman. It is said that the fol

FISK GROWS SENTIMENTAL.
Sunday Evenixu. Feb. 1, 1870 My
D. ar Josie : I received your letter. The
tenor does not surprise me much. You
alone sought the issue, and tLe reward
will belong to you. I crnnot allow you
to depart believing yourself what you
write, and must say to yon, which you
know full well, that all the differences
conld have been settled by a kiss in the
right spirits. A longer letter
from me might be much of an advertise
ment of my weakness, and the ouly
great idea. I would impress on yonr mind
is how wrong you are when you say that
1 have grown tired of you " Wrong,'
wrong ! Never excuse yourself on that
iu after years. Don't try to teach j-onr
heart that, for it is a lie, and yon are
falsifying yourself to your own soul No
more. Like the Aral s, we will fold our
tents and quietly steal away, and when
we spread them next we hope it will be
where the "woodbine twinetb," over the
river Jordan, on the bright and beautiful
banks of heaven. From yours, ever,
James.
" what a fool !"
AlG. 1, 1S70 My Dear Jotie: I
seud you letter I found to my care on my
desk. I cannot come to you to-night.
I shall stay in town to-night and prob
ably to morrow night, and after that I
must go east On my return I shall
come to see yon. I am sure you will
say, " What a fool !'' but you must rert
and so must I. The thread is so elende;
I dare uot strain it more. Loving yon,
and none but yon, I am, yours ever,

That your letter had the desired effect
you can well imagine. I am honest
enough to admit that it cut me to the
quick. In all the annals of letter writ
ing I may say it eclipses them all Your
secretary made a slight error, however,
in supposing tliat-M'll Montaland was
mentioned. The only prima donna I
had referred to was "Miss Peiris." As
you say, M'll has nothing whatever to
do wiih ray affairs. I have always re
spected her, and ouly thought of her as
one of the noblest works of God beau-
tit ul and talented and your choice never
referring to her in my letter in thought or
word. I freely admit I never expected
so severe a letter from yon I, of course,
feel that it was unmerited, but. as it is
your opinion of me, I accept it with all
the sting. You have struck home, and I
may say, turned the knife around. I
will send you the picture yon speak of
at once The one in the parlor I will al
so dispose of. I know of nothing else
here that you would wish. I am anxious
to adjust our affairs. I certainly do not
wish to annoy you, and that I may be
able to do bo I write yon this last letter.
You have told me very often that you
held some $20,000 or $25,000 of mine iu
your keeping. I do not know if it is so,
but that I may be able to shape my af
fairs permanently for the future that a
part of the amount would place me in a
position where I never would have to ap
peal to you for aught. I have never had
oue dollar from any one else, and arriv-
i ing here from the Branch, expecting my
I shall sell mj hoaset bat for the pres
ent thiuk H best to remain ia h. . The
money I apeak of would place me where
I should need the assistance of no one.
The ring I -take back- as freely . aa I
gave to yon ; the mate to it I shall keep
for company". ' Why foa should eayl
obtained this house by robbery I cannot
imagine; however, yon know best. I
am sorry that your associations with me
was detrimental to yon, and I would
gladly, with yon (were it possible), ob
literate the last three years of my life's
history ; but h ia not possible, and we
must struggle to - ontli vo our past. I
trust you will take the sense of this let
ter as it is meant, and that there can be
no mistake I send this by Ella, and wbat
you do not understand. she will explain.
FISK's CONFESSION-"YO0 ACTED BIGHT."
Department of Finance, New York,
October 20, 1870 Madam: You know
I would not wrone von, and I would
take back all my acts when there could
be a shadow or doubt that you were right
aud I was wrong ; and let me ask of the
other harsh letters I have written. I
wrote them because yon Lad wronged me
positively, because you had placed be
tween me and my lift?,- my hope and my
happiness, an eternal gtlf, and I felt
sore and revengeful, and on those letters
I am now the same. It vould be idle
for me to write aught about them or
about us, when I could talk to you there.
The entire connection is lite a dream to
me, a fearful dream, from vhich I have
awoke, and, whilo dreaming, supposed
my soul had gone out ; anj tLe awaken
ing tells me I am saved, and, from the
embers of the late fire, there smoulders
no spirit of revenge toward you, for yon
acted right, and the wrong ouly came to
mc from you because you did not act
sooner
This letter should rcmaiu and be read
ouly by you. Should you see fit to an
swer it, the answer will be the same way
kept by me. There ha been a storm.
The shin, a noble steamer, 'has cone
down. The storm is over and the sea is
smooth again.
. Little ships should keep near shore;
Greater ships eaa venture more.
"My ship is small and poorly offered.''
I am yours ever, etc , etc., J F.. jr,
P S. I would have liked to have an
swered your letter in full, but, as you say
I have not a well balanced brain, and I
know I could not do justice to a letter of
that kind, so refrain and content to let
the sentiment of it "know and fret me."

say to her come back iu four days and
you will have them for her. I sent you
a package by Maggie for what you da
sircd on Saturday evening, with a little
surplus over for trimmings, which I
hope you received. I am cf your opiuion
regarding not ouly Dr. Pape, but all of j

November 14, 1870 Dear Dol'y :
Do you really wish to see a "brigand' at
your house to night ? If so, what hour,
or from wlmt hour, aud how late should
I call t for I might not be able to come
at 8 or perhaps not till 10. Say what
hour, and how late is your limit after the
time you first say.
November 15, 1870. Inclosed find
a box for to-night. Should you find you
cannot use it send it back to me later.
Do you feel as I said -you would this
morning? The box, of course, is for
whoever you may invite.' Yours ever,
Jambs.
November 16, 18 Dear Dolfy:
Don't feel that way. Go riding, and to
night, darling, I will take you to rest. I
shall go out at half past three, and yon
can safely look ahead, darling, for rest. I
will come, and we shall be happy again.
Yours truly, James.

An exchange says a philosophic genius
in Chicago bas petitioned Congress to
aid him in experimenting to produce
rain artificially. ' The frequency with
wbicb rain storms followed battles dur
ing the late rebellion leads him to con
clude that the explosion of large quanti
ties of gunpowder tends to produce such
storms. He asks for the use of three
hundred cannons, whe'se calibre shall
not be less than that of a twelve-pounder,
and twenty thousand blank cartridges.
This artillery is to be exploded simulta
neously, by means of electricity, in hope
that such an explosion will cause a fall
of rain. Should this experiment prove
successful, the West need no longer be
troubled with such severe droughts as
afflicted it last summer and autumn.

This saying to the Jews u applicable
to many of the present day.- Ia some
form idolatry wins its way. into every
heart, and the unknown goda are wor
shipped as in the time of Panl. Fame,
money, fashion, and beauty are the prin
cipal agencies in the work. Admiration
generally covers the sins they accumu
late. Mental aud physical is the labor
to live in others' eyes., and only when
earthly pleasures cease to charm, do mor
tals realize that mammon is not all of
life. In the twinkling of an eye the
objects idolized may be removed ; then
will come, through a broken spirit, the
knowledge of unknown worship. -
When money is the aim, everything
else is trodden uader foot in order to
reach that goal. So with all purposes
when they become the predominant de
sires of the heart '
There are many minor and delusive
points on this subject, of which we sel
dom take note, on account of their bitter
uess, but time reveals their growth, fre
quently, to our great disappointment. .
Some men admire the very nothing
ness of woman's character, which some
day brings them to grief. A companion
must possess more than a pretty face and
winsome manners, but the attractive out
side was all that was searched for. The
uuhappiness comes when the gilt is
worn off from the image. J
We know all men admire good women.
But why iu the world do they not give
them more encouragement in that way.
If men would cease admiring the furbe
lows with which women adoru their per
sons, engaging iu trivial conversations,
coquetry aud flirtatious, then there would
be a different standard of "elegant young
ladies." Girls lower themselves to
men's ideal, and blight that which, by
education, would work out a more ex
ceeding weight of nobleness. ' It is not
always for want of capacity that girl
are such insipid mortals we innst admit
to our sorrow there arc too many of this
sort. We have known them to leave
school with honors, but keep the benefit
therefrom carefully, as it were, laid up in
a napkin, and join the butterflies that flit
around the throne of fashion, and become
slaves thereto.
If society would favor intellectual pnr-
suite nvre, there would he a truer, nobler
basis Men and women would regard
life beyond the vanities which are as
chaff which the wind driveth away.
