V ' - The days that f presage tho com ing of summer roll rapidly by, echoing with saw and hammer, and the noise and bustle of prepara tion tells us that our seaside re sorts are soon to open. More and more each year New York is be coming a place with special at tractions for con. p. o. LOVEEAND,pleasure seekers PENSION AGENT AT and visitors. Ev- NEW YOBK. ery phase of sum mer hotel clusters around us and the city itself is by no means the uninviting spot that somo picture it. In the crowded tenemont and business streets one cannot expect comfort, but there arc thousands of cool and shady spots on bay, ocean and river that people are • finding in the suburbs and even within city limits. And our city hotels are not empty in summer either. The rush to section brings all of them trade and visitors often make their headquarters here when Hitting from ono resort to an other. Political things languish. Since tho ad journment of tho legislatures around us, fewer politicians drop down here. Of local interest, tho appointment of Col. F. C. Loveland to be pension agent in ,citv and of John F. Plummer to Vie gov ernment director of the Union Pacific railroad are the only current theme of ' the kind. Both these men are very pop ular here, and thus far few murmurs of dissatisfaction are heard even of the party sort. The proposed construction of a new Union League club house in Brooklyn is worthy of mention in this connection, showing as it does the wealth arm ag gressive tactics of Republicans in Kings county, which is to be a field for hotter party battles than ever before. From an "architectural point of view the new build ing will be a credit to tho city, and so far ' as the Republican party may have an interest in it, or can be responsible for its erection, it will be a credit to the party, for it will be one of the finest structures of its kind in the country. Apart from its political effect there is a side of club organisation which excites admiration and wins commendation even from those who have no personal interest in them; for they contribute to tho beautification of the city, the enhancement of its tax values, and the attractions of its social life; and since the Republicans have de termined to establish their Union League clubhouse, they are at least to be con gratulated by Democratic citizens on the largeness of the plans adopted and the I size and imposing character of the build ing they propose to erect. An unpretentious house on Henry street, Brooklyn, attracts unusual atten tion, by the way, since it became the dom icile of the much-discussed ox-bank pres ident and ex-convict .Tames D. Fish. Since his occupancy of this quiet retreat ho has been seen on the street only ouee or iwr-e. I saw him out for a short walk one evening during the past week, and the sigiit of the clean shaven, now almost decrepit old ma* revived memories of the days when he sat in his cosily furnished ottice it: the Marine bank in Wall street, ami directed the affairs of that then most trusted financial institution. The name of Fish was then an honored one. Its hearer had advanced step by step to a lnence and iniluenoe. His brother, with whom ho had been asso ciated so many years in the ship broker age and commission business on Maiden I.ane had imbibed from him the-conserv atism in methods so characteristic of all i.is transactions. Mr. Fish, it is claimed, has hardly re cciv"d fair treatment at the hands of the mess. Rumors without foundation gained currency stories of endless / variety wore / coined which J gp tended to show him in anything rW but a favorable ! w~7 light. He was / human with some fso'/ of the frailties'of humanity. He hud a kindly r JI |V 1 heart, was hos- m \\\/ pitable and char italic. No man { y could have the legion of friends, y who, when adver- P slty overtook roHN F. PLUMMF.R, him, never oov. DIRECTOR R. p. ceased-to try RAILROAD. and tx'gnin him bis liberty, had he been a cold, selfish individual, as sometimes assorted. During his prosperous days be waa the roost accessible of the tinan idaJ magnates. Hall bovs, janitor", isio hlacks and newsboys all knew hi., .-no. •he- had a-friendly word for all. Belll-b men are not of this sort. 'lt was hoped by his family and friends that When- ne emerged from prison the crimes for which he had been punished would cease to-be discussed in the news papers, and thatihe would be enabled to pass qnietly the remaining days'of Ids r existence free from constant reminders of his misstep ; but he is talked of almost as much as ever. Many inquiries are afloat as to why he selected Brooklyn for a residence. It is easy to account for in the fact that in a house three or four doors away there lives a friend with whom he was wont to spend many pleasant days when Wad street revered him. Through all the long days of ills trial, this friend never forsook liim, and when the prison bars shut him in, his hand v, us the last he grasped. His name wu- among the first ou the petition for the pardon sub mitted to ex-President Cleveland, and by his advice the present house was en gaged. When gossip has subsided, and the ex banker can go about without being etaredat.it is rumored that he will tie provided with a modest clerical position where his duties will not be very onerous and where his declining days may be made as peuuc-iul and quiet as possible. c We hve had some pleasant talk over the fact that William Walter Phelps is mentioned as our probable minister to Germany, just as Wldtelaw Reid appears In Paris as minister to France. Mr. Shanks, formerly of the Tribune, now editor of the Star, told a ttory not long ago indicative of the warm relations ex' Utlng between Messrs Phelps and Rehl. "In 1872, just after Horace Greeley's death," said he, "Whitelaw Hold, then acting editor of the Tribune, called t'.io late John R. G. Hansard and myself into his office. Hassard and I were then sub ordinates of Reid. He handed us a cheok of the Tribune association for $40,000 nay able to himself for four shares of Trll jno stock. 'Boys,' he Said, trying to laugh away his grief, 'that represents my con nection with the Tribune. It has been sold to a syndicate represented by Wil liam Orton, president of the Western Union Telegraph company, and Vice- President Colfax is to become editor to morrow. He wishes you to remain.' "Hassard fell to weeping, and I took to cursing, und advised Reid to got out an injunction against the illegal transfer. While we were yet talking a messenger handed Reid a dispatch. It was from t he Tribune's Washington correspondent, Zebulon L. White. It told that Oakes Ames had exposed Vice-President Colfax as one of the credit Mobilier gang, and that Orton, breaking with Coll'ax, had gone back to New York in disgust. "Mr. Reid left the Tribune office hast ily. He went to the house of a friend. The next day ho had soon Orton and bought his fifty-one Shares of the Tri bune for $510,000. The friend to whom he had hastily gone the night before, and who furnished tho money to buy tho control of the Tribune in its days of doubt, and tribulation, was William Wal ter Phelps, tho probable minister to Germ any. "A few years ago fraud brought disas ter to the great, Second National hank of this city. Millions had been stolen by John Vino. Tho bank was on the verge ot' ruin. The youngest director of it saved it. He nerved the other rich di rectors to put their hands in their pock ets, pay the deficiency, save tho bank and their own honor. At the last moment the discovery of an additional forgery of '-.)0,000 staggered the directors, and they hesitated. 'Never mind that,' said the plucky junior director, 'l'll take care of that.' Ho hud already put up Ids full as sessment of the loss to the bank by tun's treachery, I think that that plucky di rector is fully competent to be the minis ter to Germany." PBOI'OSEU UNION IiEAGIVS CLUB HOUSE IN BROOKLYN. On the occasion of his great benefit at the Comedie Franccise a week ago, Actor Conuelin received a stream of congratu latory cablegrams from admirers here. Coquelin is loud in his praise and admi ration of everything American, from the women to the cooking, which he declares to bo as good at Delmonico's as in any place in Paris. The only thing he had to object to was the way lie was treated by •h" Tribune and Herald. He and Mr. Jteid have met since the letter's arriva in Paris, and, it is said, the new minister to France expresses himself as regretful for the severity of his critic. As to the Herald, whieh simply boycotted Coquelin and never mentioned Ids name at all, that was Mr. Bennett's doings, he having cabled peremptory orders forbidding his dramatic critic ever to speak of Coquelin in print. I am told this was ono of Mr. Bennett's private grudges whieh he used his paper to gratify. Three or four years ago tho two had some difficulty in Paris concern ing a private mutter. The editor consid ered himself the injured party, aud after iiis fashion waited patiently for revenge, and did succeed In annoying Coquelin m if ■ tliu i he would like to admit by ab solutely refusing to have his name men ti mod in his paper. Coquelin is passionately fond of pic tures, and, like all wealthy Frenchmen, li.i. n ambition to discover and introduce to the world a new genius, as I hear. The genius' name in this oase is Friand. and Coquelin has somo twenty or more of his paintings hung about his now apart ments, among his Corots and Diazes, and expects them to double themselvw over many times in value in the next twenty years He is going to make hie debut in London as Petruehlo, in "The Taming of tho Shrew," it, having long been one of lis ambitions to create Shakepearean roles. 110 hits a big law suit on hand with the manager of theComedle Jhrancarise, whlAii' will keep hlin busy all summer, and Tfr* proposes to make a speech himself In court when the trial eomes off.

What in the world is the matter with you ? You seem to have reuewed your youth." " Well Phil. I have. Don't you remem ber the last time I saw you, how misera ble I was ? Sick and blue, and in that sort of mood a man gets sometimes when he feels the most noble thing in life is to go straight to the devil." " Not so had as that, I hope ; at all events you didn't go that way, you are looking far too happy and hearty." •• Thank goodness, no ! or rather, thank Vinegar Bitters. Do you remember that day fsaw you last, when you recommend ed that remedy to me so persistently, and Iw is first vex'd and then half convinced." I remember it perfectly, and you needn't say another word upon the sub ject ; your looks tell me that you took the medicine." "No doubt of it: everybody remarks upon my improved looks and temper; but I must really tell you all about it. I got the old style, us you recommended, and didn't minil the hitter taste at all. 1 fin ished the bottle in about two weeks, and was greatly improved, so much so that I determined to change off and try the new style. " Well, how did you like it?" " You told me your wife preferred th new style, I believe;well, I must say lagre with her. I like the old style very much but the new is a finer, smoother, more ex pensive preparation." " I believe it is; in fact, 1 have heard .10, and 1 wonder the McDonald Drug Company sell it for the same price they do the old style, because it is really a very costly preparation." " Well, that ilosn't concern us. Who was it said that people fancied themselves pious sometimes when they were only bilious? No matter! I was only going to suy that I believe people often seem wicked when it is only their liver, or their stom ach, or some other cantankerous organ of the body so out of order they couldn't be good if they tried." " And if ail the miserable dyspepsia, and victims of biliousness, headache and the thousand and one ills that flush is heir to would only take Vinegar Bitters, what a happy world this would be ! " " I should recommend the new style." " I never go back on the old style." " Well, they can pay their money and take their choice, for both kinds work ad mirably." Only Temperance Bitters Known.
