Rem nlscences of Alexander H.
Stephens.

The New York Independent contains
an interesting chapter in the life Of
STEPHENS, now confined in Fort Warren
The writer says:
In the year 1895, thirty nine wears
ago, | became member of the faculty of
the University of Georgia, located at
Athens, where | continued some FIVE
years, and at length returned to this NV
native state. While was there Alexan-
der Ii. Stephens entered as student
III was than about fifteen; an amiable,
modest, quiet, studious, bright-eyed lad
pious witha, and looking forward to the
gospel ministry, lie came, | think, from
Washington, Wilkes county, of humble
and poor parentage; but exhibiting fine
capabilities and promise of usefulness,
some benevolent gentlemen united in
furnishing for him the means of education,
and preparation for the pulpit. He en-
tered my classe and l became much
interested in him, and greatly pleased
with his department and progress, and
bad with him many private walks and
familiar conversations. lie had not ye,
completed his course when | resigned and
left the state, and then lost sight of him !;
until many years after, to my surprise, lie
turned up in congress, and their became
known to the whole country.
Low it happened that he did not enter
the ministry never learned satisfactory
until the spring Of 1860, when the Q. s.
general assembly of the Presbyterian
church of the United States met here in
Rochester. Among the delegates had
the unexpected pleasure to meet with Rev
Alonzo Church, d. d., formerly, when |
was there president of the university of
Georgia. In long conversation with
him, calling up memories of the past,
enquired about Stephens. and the change
of his early plans; adding, 81 suppose

himself better fitted for the law than for

to refund, principal and interest, the

elder in the Presbyterian church."
This gentleman wrote to STEPHENS in
1850, and received the following reply
"As to the momentous questions which:

Gen. Horace T. SANDERS, late Colonel
of the 19,h Regiment, and a citizen OF
Racine, died in Washington on Friday
night last. The Milwaukee News speaks
of him AS follows:
1.-The personal history Of Gen. Sanders
since bis residence in Wisconsin is known
to most of our readers. He came to the
state at an early day, and during bis life
took prominent part in partisan politics.
For several years he was chairman of the
Democratic state committee, and for ore
or two years represented the city of Racine
in the assembly. He was a man of supe-
rior natural abilities, aod an effective pub.

his profession, lie would doubtless lave

November, 1861, be raised the Nineteenth h
regiment, OF which he was commissioned
colonel by governor Randall. Much of
the time during the war, Col S. was act>
ing as judicial officer at Norfolk, under
military authority, and at the close of the

President Jolnson's Wit.

A good story Is told of President JONI
SON and tonguey Albany politician,
named Sam. TildeD, who called on him
recently:
Everybody who knows Sam TIden
knows that he is an intolerable BORE
President johnson knew it years ago.
He therefore was disposed to indulge him
and lei him run loose. TiIden commenced
by compIimenting the President upon re-
turning to old Democratic doctrines in
his reconstruction policy, and bringing
back the party to the Jetfersonian land
marks. lie branched of, celebrating on
his subject and illustrating it as only Sam
Tilden can. lie reminded the President
| that this was compensating world, and
illustrated this point by calling attention
to the fact that while the peacock had a
magnificent rainbow tail, the bird was
| good for nothing 20 eat-tha, the elephant
was a colossal animal, but lacked the
speed Of the antelope. The President all
the time, sat biting his lip. wondering
what the devil TIIden was driving at
Tilden continued: There, too Mr.
President, is the poor, stupid oyster !:
what sweet morsei to roll under your
tongue, but what 3 repulsive object to
look at" The President here iulerfe ed,
and taking the spectacIes from his nose,

thing to be said in favor of the oyster, and
that was, it kneac uhen to shat up"

Despers te Encounter with Shark.
A correspondent of the N. Y. Herald
furnishes the following fisby s.cry:-

!
"Southold, L. L. Sept 8, 1865.
A few days since the schooner Gather
inc Wilcox, Of Lubec, Maine, Geo. M'Fad,
den. master, being bound from New York
10 Eastport and Lubec fell in, when op~
posite this place, with what is termed
dead calm Tie opportunity seeming
propitious, the captain and young man
named Peter Johnson, who was formerly a
member of The First Maine heavy artillery,
and who was wounded in the neck a,
! Spottsy ylvania, Va, determined to enjoy a
salt water bath.
"Jumping into the water it was not
many minutes when young Johnson SAYS
he saw something all white , and in an
instant he was carried under the surface to
a debth of twenty feet. He now discov-
cred that he was in the jaws of one Of
the voracious man-ea,er sharks Struggling
with all his strength Johnson managed to
break away and reach the surface again ;
out the shark was soon after him. and
continued to bite him in various parts Of
the body, when the yonng man bethonght
him Of the sailor trick of putting his fng,
ers in the shark eyes, which be did, aud
% his no small qualification soon saw the
frenzied monster fleeing from him. John
son now swan TO the vessel, and, being
taken on board, was found TO have been
fearfully torn about the abdomen-;ts
lower section entirely otf-both thighs
and shoulder being terribly acera,ed
| There being no wind to get anywhere, the
crew took him in the yav and rowed him
eight miles 10 the village of Greenport,
where his wounds were sewed up ana
dressed by Drs. Kendall, BRYANT and
Skinner, and the young pan made as
comfortable under the circumstances as
possible. He is growing worse hourly
and there is not much chance for his re
covery.
"The Sound is now full Of these rapa-
cions monsters, and if some of Your N. Y
sportsmen are fond of game worthy of
their steel this is the month to attack
them. They are caught and landed with
perfect safety BY our villagers almost
every day"

TIE FESIANs ExPosED.-From a
late article in the London Times
we get hint to the effect that the
English government was enabled to get a
clue to Fenianism from information given
ty the federal government. The feder-
al government y in this case, can Of course
be only Secretary Seward. That gentle,
man has taken upon himself to play the
part Of detective in this country for the
benefit Of England. From the premature
disclosures of the plans Of the Fenans the
English government has placed itseIfIn al
attitude which will perhaps completely de
feat the attempt for the liberation Of Ire.
land. The Fenians, as they examine this
fact, will not forget that it is Secretary
Seward to whom they are indebted fol
this result.
