0THon. a. II. STEVENS, of Georgia, in a
recent address at a meeting in Alexandria
for the benefit Of the Orphan Asylum and
Free School of that city, related the follow
ing anecdote
"a poor little boy in a cold night, with NO
home or roof to shelter his head, no paternal
or maternal guardian to guide, to protect OF
to direct him on his way, reached at night
fall tho house of a rich planter, who took him
in, fed, lodged, and sent HIM on his way
These kind attentions cheered his heart, and
inspired him with fresh courage to battle
with the obstacles of life. Years rolled
round; Providence led him on and he reached
the legal profession; his host had died; the cor
moranti that prey on the substance of man,
had formed a conspiracy TO get from the
widow her estate. She sent for the nearest
counsel to commit her cause to him, and that
counsel proved TO be the orphan boy, years
before welcomed by her deceased husband.
The stimulus of warm and tenacious graft
tude, was now added 10 the ordinary motive
connected with the profession. He under
took her cause with 4 will not easily to be re-
sisted; he gained il; the widows estates were
secured to her in perpetuity Mr.. Ste
phens added, with an emphasis of emotion
that sent an electric thrill through the house,
that orphan boy stands before you"

Judge Blackford.

The Washington correspondent of the Put
nam Banner furnishes the following illustra-
ton of the tenacity with which Judge Black
ford adheres to his old homebred habits in
spite Of his new dignity:
Icannot refrain from giving you few items
relating to Judge Blackford, one of the Judges
of Claims. Ii is not uncommon to see him
in common omnibus with parcel of Irish
laborers, riding up and down Pennsylvania
Avenue our principal street. And isis equal
ly as common to see him going from the Court
room to his boarding house, with both his
arms full of books and papers. In your State
such things would not be noticed, but here
every thing of the kind attracts attention
one of the Secretaries or the Head of Blu
reau, would rather stick his hands in the
fire than be guilty of the like. like to see
the Judge hold on to his primitive Hooser
notions. 1t shows an independent spirit but
few of our great men possess.

IL The vote of Indiana at the late election
falls short of that of 1854 about 50,000l The
old liners have polled twenty thousand less, and
the Republican party thirty thousand less than
they did last year. Little indeed, have the old
liners to rejoice over. There is vet majority
of ten thousand Republicans in the State of In
diana. and that majority will be polled at the
next Presidential election.-1f0ntgomUry Jour
nal.
Hon does the Journal know the complex
ion and the proportion of the $1,000 votes
that were not cast at the late election The
assertion made is merely an asss,tion,--s
Rno,0 Nothing assertion, which, among men
that love the truth, is worse than no asser
ton whatever. The presumption is, and al
we can do in a matter of this kind is to pre-
sumo, that as many Democratic voters were
kept from the polls by sickness and other eau
ses as fusion voters.
But, if we take the Journals estimate, the
deduction is still false one. The Demo
cratic majority inthe late election will foo
up not less than 10000. Acknowledging
then, for the sake of argument, that of the
votes not cast, there were ten thousand more
of Fusionsts than of Democrats, and we
still have clear majority for the Democratic
party of TEN THOUSAND VOTES Drowning
men will catch at straw. We will show
the Fusionists that in the Presidential con.
test we will be able to count a majority OIL
thirty thousand votes, against combination Of
all the isms which may be conglomerated
into one discordant mass.
