The new uv tbu election in Connecticut
creattiil tlio most prulound tensaalien at the
Corners. , It cum to us ao unexpected, ao
like a clnp uv thunder from a clear sky, or
ruther su like a gk'ain uy suulitc thro a mass
uv overpowrin bluck ckiuds, so like the limt
streak uv smilite in the inortiin alter a li'iig
nitc ofcokra morbus, with no brandy in the
house, that. ve nuz overpowered with it.
The Corners he v n't eXpeHenct Etch a sutis
factrny spiism uv joy encc the receet uv the
news uv the Fort Tiller affair. It perdoost
a very sitigler efTi-ct. on IJeekin ' l'ogram.
When I cum up to him with the news, he
win engaged with till the tlukence lie poa
est.a trying to convince a nigger, wich for
merly belonged to him, that, utter all, the
Southerner themselves tvuz the only one
wicli tlm niggers cnild trust, and tlint wheu
the time cum for em to exercise tho 'Icctive
franchise, cf they had any regard for their
own interests they wood turn their buck ou
the Ahlishinists, who wuz, to a man, liorj
hesded deceevers, and trust thera and them
only who kuowd em.
"Samyooel," Bed the Dtekin, in a affeo
shunit tone, with one liutiU on the nigger's
shoulder, ''why shoodent wo love yon ' Yoo
lire bone uv our bone, and flesh uv our flesh
we are uv one blood" (ihte reniaik the
Ieekin got into a habit some years ago uv
gittin off whcrl speekin uv the Dimocrif.y
North, and alius uses it. It is ruther effec
tive tho in this instance ; ef I had bin in his
place I shondent hev slung it out, owiu to
the pecoolinr construckshen wich mite be
put octo it) "and our interests is one,
Ijaniyonel."
'I)eekin,"seel, interrnptin him. "Deekinl
Connecticut h;z spoken in thunder "tones,
and hez gone Dimocrittic"
"Whatl'' sez he, "Oimocratic 1"
''Verily," eez I. "A Governor, and three
Congressmen out of four.''
There whs a sudden rupcher uv the f tend
ly rchisheus existiu between the Deekin and
Samyooel the dark coinplexioncd. If he
wuz uv the DetUiu'a flesh the Deekin wuz
in favor nf mortifyin it. for never wuz flesh
so belabored ez wuz that unfortunit chattel's.
The Ui'hu wuz imijitly lasserated. Ho pitched
into liim luroslins, and utter piitnmelin the
astonished Afeikin, who didn'.t see why the
reKult if a eleckehuu shood work sich u
chutige, till he wuz out uv breath, he con
denst wut strength wuz reniaiuin into one
vigorous kick, exclaimin .
"Take that, yoo black swindler. I've
talked sweet to yoo under false pretenses.
I've bin betrayed into wiistin soft sawder
onto a nigger into couxiu w her I hev u
ondcitiable rite to command into "
"Wat does all tlis menu ?" eed llu) nigger
faintly.

I h ft the Dimocrisy jubilatin and come on
to Washington, fceliu that 1 must go where
I cood tind kindreil soles. Tba ui'.c I ar
rived there w uz high caniival at the White
House. The President wuz in tall leather.
Ther wuz Connecticut visible all over him.
He heJ a wooden nutmeg for a huzzum pin
a miii'jtoor h.tK&wood ham hung from his
watch fob, and in honor of the occashun
thay wuz diiukiu punrhes made of Noo
England lum, wifh small slices uv Weather
lield onyuus in em insled uv lemons. Ban
dull sprung toward ine ez I entered the
room, and clasped me by one hand, the
President by tothcr, and we then not alto
gether onliku the three graces embraced.
They lied the advantage uv me, ez they lieJ
oue odor the onion wich I hedent, but I
stood it. Why not, when that odor wuz
from the breaths uv those heviu the upintic
power? I wood hev. stood it hed I bey bin
eutiti ujsofotida, v ' ; , : .
At this juncter Sckretary Weiles came in.
"Ha I" said he, "why this unwonted hil
arity ! why this joy w here greef fciueraljy

"The Connecticut cUiCshuo," muI Seward.
"Oh, to be sure," seel the veueruble old
man vacuutly, "I rumeuiuer. liawley, wuz
it, or some other man who wuz electee over
over what wuz his name ? cur candi
date ?"
"That wnz last jeer!" sed Seward angrily.
"Well, perhaps it wuz. When did that
btate vote agio t" asked he innocently, to
wich no anser wuz given. But very little
utteution is paid to Sckretary Welles, by any
one 'ccptio Seward, and the fact that he oc
casionally uudurtuke to keep him postid in
current events is giuerally taken ez evidence
that he's breaking up. Poor William, it's
evident that he's passin into his dotage.
Iher wuz a pleasant gtuej-)ii. Cowan
wuz ther, and Sutilsbury and Garret Davis,
and Doolittle and Seymour and Brooks, and
morecougratulatory letters wuz rend than
wood fill a pago of the Noo York Jlcrald.
John C. Breckinridge hoped this suspicious
event wuz the beginuiu of good fecliu, pre

triumph of them wicli he ted alluz bin proud
to cslj bis fiieiuls. Mayor Alouroe, of Xoo

fil. He wuz honest. Honesty wuz his best I
holt simple, child lika atrato-forwardniss
in his ileclins in politix wuz his cheef failin

query wux easy to anser the eleckshun re

ther wuz no Pst Offlsis to spare. To carry
the Stato every Wun of em had bin solcmu
ly promised, v , i
The President roinarkl " that he' nely
shoodnt think that triflin circumstance
wood interfere with givin uv em to other
men. .. : ii'. :
At this pint I broke in. I told em firmly
that onless I cood hev a better post oflfs
than the wun I hed, I woodent go. I cood
go and cood move wat there is of the Col
lege bildins. It woodent cost much to pay
freight on that corner stun I spose a bet
ter one cood be got In' Connecticut nt less
than lh cost uv transport It, but wher
ever that Dimocratio Colk-ge is built that
must be the coiner stun uv it. . That stun is
hallowed. . ; Ther aro tender associashens
hanging round it. It was the corner stone
uv a nigger schoolhouse when we burnt to
the grouud the nite we heard uv the veto ut
the Civil Kites Hill. But I wont go to Con
necticut onless my subsistence is asHhoored.
Ther is more money ther than in Kentucky,
but I doubt whether they wood support me
ez well. I speek frankly. I kin nurierstund
why a ruan kin be a Dimocrat in Kentucky
he's interested in niggers. ' I kill appre
ciate the Dimocrisy uv Southern Injeany,
Illinois, and Ohio, coz they come from that
region, and the sekend generashun aint got
to be voters. I kin understand the Dimo
mtici isy in Utensil's and Fernando Wood's
deestricks, but pardon me I want ti keep
very clear uv Connecticut Democrats. A
people auywhere.in Noo England which
kin dcliheritly ally theirseives to us is just
iue kuiu uv people l uonc want to tie among
I inttinctly mistrust a Yunkce who he;
z
uickcrd away his iutrcst in Bunker
Hill.
I hev notist that a Noo Euglunder
come South ami married ad old maid,
widekr with a plantation, wuz never
wiell
or a
to be
trusted, and it a uiy experience that demor.
alized Yankee, one who her shed his early
trainin and took up anybody else's mora!
close, is about the meanest specimen uv it
white mau on the fuce uv the green earth,
lie hez the Accootnis which is born uv a
barren soil, without the Puritanism to keep
it wilhin hounds he possesses: the ability
to make a livin on hi nstive roi but his
luziness impels him to a easier subsistence
iu milder tliiuis, and instid uv frhin for
mackeral he goes South uml fishes for men.
A Jioo n?tandr unreetrsiwi hy rrnee i?
pizeii, unci 1 believe Connecticut is full uv
em. I hev heerd Mahsnchoosits religion
ahoozed, but its sulhiu we may well be
thankful for. I hev alluz bin thankful that
the Mayflower blot over religion ez well ez
brains unci will.
Among the Couuectieut Democricy I
shood sltmd no show, and, beside, I hev too
much sell' ri speek to sociate with em on
terms uv equality. Instill of foragiu on
them they'd manage to livo on me. I heve
lambs to shear in Kciitnckv, and I don't
' care about changin em.' I dnu't want to
tiuow any cnlcl water onto this festive oc
casion, it being a element wo oil despise,
but, heve we any asslioorence uv hcrcontiu
yooin troo Kf I understand it, we won by
means uv patronage, and riinnin a War
Democrat, a bein I, iu common willi all the
troo Democricy, despise. We can't do it
agin. The next blast that swerps from the
North will bring to our cars a story uv uno

When they were ordering a court bouse,
judge, shcritfand jail, in one of the primi
tive counties of Tennessee, Bill Simpson, a
bright and shining light of the Legislature,
rose and spoke as follows;
"He sajd he knew all about a court that

his neighbor's bugs kept coming ttbeie he
fed his hogs until he got fat. Oue rooming
he got so mad that he shot the hog. lie
thought it would not do to throw it away,
so he cleaned and salted it. Shortly after,
his neighbor and a tnan came to his bouse,
examined the smokehouse, and took bim
to town and put him in a little office. About
three months after that, this little man came
and took him to a large room. A large man
sat upon a high bench a man was sitting
at a desk about dozen flue dressed men
sat in a pluce that was paled around. The
roan put me in a pen just behind them. He
then called in twelve men ; they took teats
in a box in front of tlw vxll-dresaed. men.
Tho man that was writing gave Uie twelve
men a book and suid something abouvtfill
Simpson and State. Then one of .the flue
men read something about Bill Simpson
and the bog, and be and another one of the
tine dressed men had the biggest quarrel
you ever heard. I thought they would fight
every minute, but tbey didn't, it was Bill
Simpson and the bog, aud the bog and Bill
Simpson and sometimes Mr. Simpson, but
durned seldom. After they quit quarreling,
the big man talked awhile to the twelve
men, and tbey went out and staid a long
time, and came bark and aatd something to
the man at the desk, The man on the bench
aaid sofljetuing to tbe man that put me in

; The following extract from the SattctUary,
by Major Ward Nickol, formerly of the
staff of Lieutenant General Rhcrtnari, gives
A good plctoreof tho General; aa , many of
his' followers have often seen, bim wbon
called upon to visit headquarters, at A late
hour in the night - : ,- !
The canvas cover, townrd which the eyes
of both were now eagerly directed, like the
outers on mo nne, winch were the homes of
the General's military fatnilv, was open
from the front, so that the slightest move
ment of its inmate could be observed from
tho outside. They could how see that the
Gerterul had risen from his cot. Thrusting
bis bare lecfinto a pair of slippers, he un
rolled from a scrap of newspaper a cigar,
and then stepped out from such protection
at the tent offered from the falling due into
the open grounds. He looked up into the
sky arid then into the darkness in an ab
sent, half-abstracted way.
The nigh air was chilly and the camp
fire had burned, low. Gathering the ends
of tho churred rails together, he 'heaped
them upon the still smouldering ashes, then,
taking a camp stool from the tent, he sat.
down before the fire which had now kin- ,
tiled into a blaze ; be lighted his cigar, nnd,
with bis elbows resting npon his knees,
gazed earnestly into the bed of coals and
liume. Tbe bright light shone foil into that
iron faoe,. marked with strong line of
thought and care. ' ' '
That bold forehead seemed to project its-'
self higher aud broader among tbe shoit
scruo grow th. of cross-grained hair. The
liabt canght upon the unbuttoned wrist
band, taking a warmer glow from the red
shirt hardly covering his bare neck.
A strange, grand figure w as this sitting
there, -whose subtle brain nt that moment
was working out miie of the great events in
tbe fate of tb nation.' '"
The flames of the fre ; gathered new
strength flaring up into the night, reveal
ing the interior of the tent In clear outline.
It was not a gorgeous pavilion, rarpeted
with velvet und gold, hung with tapestry of
silk nnd wool, furnished with luxurious
couch und .case-inviting lounge, with liver
ied servants to anticipate its owner' wish,
surrounded by triple sentinels to guard him
from every huroi. t
There was a singular simplicity, almost a
proverty, which marked the headquarters
of the great captain.
The tent was a single piece of cotton cloth
stretched from a ridge polo, where it was
held firm to the ground on either side by
wooden pegs. A cross legged camp cot, a
small camp chest, which is half covered by
the uniform thrown upon it, makes up the
scanty furniture. 'Besides a single caudle,
burned to its socket,' there lies a volume of
Waverly. A l?tr bonk s tTrrs for a irri-ting-tuble;
a vaiiso is the General's only
travelling bnggage.
A number of maps, aome opened, nnd oil
well worn, lie upon the blanket, which an
swers for a floor to the tent. There was
very little pretension about this menage of
the commander, who, bad millions at his
disposal. There was no Roman Cousul uor
modern Emperor travelling in grand state,
"with pompons mein and brilliant retinue,
but a citizen general of the Republic, not
borrowing dignity from adventitious sur
roundings, Iiut, iu the simplicity of an un
selfish devotion to his country, doing the
work which lay before him.
There was a weird grandeur, stipernatur
ally picturesque, in this intense stillness,
this silent, motionless figure, of the chief
of thousands of strong men, who slept
while he sat watching tho central figure in
the grand picture. , In the spectral fire
light it seemed almost alone, for tho line of
tents receded in the darkness on either
side. The moon now and then burst through
the masses of heavy clouds, revelling the
groups of tents ou the distant bill side ;
horses and mule were crouched upon the
ground ; w hile behind them rose a forest of
pines, rdled with the mysterious shadows
and graceful tree tons inehintr iuto tho vail
of blue.

receivcd hj commission. But while they
were waiting for him to summon them to
attend him, a aiun altered in a duster, un
old pair of grey pantaloons aad a slouched
hut, was to be seen entering the Preaiilcnt's
house. Very soon bo appeared with apiece
of parchment in bis bund, and walked to
the War Depui tuieiit. He stopped in the
office of a notary public, and the clerk in
informing old Geu, Thomas, who was iu an
adjoining room, of tbe j.oi Iw.-foro bim, re
marked that the visitor was a rough old
fellow. Geu. Thomas returned, aad the re
quired oath was taken. The man who took
the oath was Gen. IT. S. Grant. Tbe com
mission was that of Ceueral of United States
Army.
"Prosperity bas not harmed Gen. Grant.

a central desk. r The confusion of tongues,
which amazes a spectator in the galleries,
is hushed, for a brief space.. The crowds

frost of the grave, long, bony, emphntic
limbs these cover the uucasy ghost which
men call Thaddeus Stevens. .'The great dnys

dragon, and now be would unchain the fair
Andromeda for whom he fought, binding
her brows with the stars. Tho version is
sudder than the old, for he will not livo to
see the glory for which bo has wrdiight.
Yet,, to drop metaphors, which are danger
ous wi'.l-of-llie-wisps, he is wonderful even
to his decline. Day after day he comes,
compelling his poor body, by the might of
the strong soul that i in him, to serve bim

These are long arrears to settle. So when
the Blaine-Sherman amendment comes back,
he w ill none of it. It is not fair to say, as
some of the papers have done, that tho Rad
icals were falso who voted against Stevens
on this issue. It was not at all a test-vote,
as is shown in the fact that the Copperheads
were with him.
"Erratic, domiuceriug, bard, subtle, Ste

of noble years upon him that one's enthusi

the galleries we do not well follow bim.
All those stilettoes of pitiless wit which
have made his caustic tongue so dreaded,
arc unsheathed from the softest tones of his
voice, and are quite lost to us. But the sar
donic light of his face, and the laugh of the
members reach us."
