btinRrck's friends,
The following extract from an Amer
lean letter published in the Aag'o Amsr-
ieoa Times. lLondon) of March 30th,
gives without doubt very correct
sketch Of Carl Schurz aud his ambition
IL should be published in Hupers
Weetlq with illustrations by Mast
Carl Schurl has no equal ia the Sen
ate in direct pointed attack skillful and
graceful vehemeGcer, and rare scholar
ship. Nobody dare meet him in debate;
for all feel that he has reservations Of
cruel force, which TO tempt would not
be agreeable. He is, however, a man
Of cold contempt respectable rather
than hearty, and always finds his chief
adorers among men OF his own class
those who adore faculty, knowledge,
chiyalry, Schurz is only forty-two
years old one Of the youngest Sena-
tors He is in the prime Of vigorous
life, very tall broaG-shouldered, spare,
and graceful, and he may be likened in
appearance to fine stag. He lives
like gentleman, drinks bottle Of
good wine at his dinner, secs well TO
his apparel, dressing for the most part
in fine English browns, roans, or blues,
and he wears gold spectaclkes His
income, derivabIe from his paper in St.
Louis, his writings and his Senatorial
salary, is probably about $4,000 year.
His wife is probably one of the finest
specimens of German women in Ameri.
ca, the daughter, il is said, of a Ham
burg banker Both Of them are earn
est and strong in their attachment to
German manners and the German
country. Mrs Schurz appreciates the
fact that our republic affords her hus-
band the best chance for high career;
but she and he prefer to give their
children German education, and they
like to be well considered and remem.
bered by the German statesmen
Schurz is on good terms with Bismarck;
and his enemies here have alleged that
he means to return to Germany and
take part in that Government.
So he lives like gentleman drinks
a bottle of good wine every day
wears English colored clothes, and
gold spectaces has a fine specimen
of German wiie--who agrees with
her husband in strong attachment to
German manners and Germany-and
appreciates dis country as a good place
for her husband TO rise, but Ike her
husband, prefers to educate their chill
drcn al home, in Germany-and be we'll
thought Of by the German statesmen
and on good terms with Bismarck so
as to 80 home to Germany and be re.
wardcd by his master for distinguished
services as senator Of the United
States Of America in the interest Of
Germany endcavoring to prove that
our government acted in had faith to
wards the Germans during their late
war with the French Perhaps that's
the kind Of senator the great state Of
Missouri bargained for perhaps the
American people will throw General
Grant overheard because this German
born United States Senator says so, and
because he has succeeded in fooling
poor old Greeley with presidential bait
into saying so too
We say perhaps SO but living aw ay
up here in Vermont, we venture % pre-
dict that the said American people will
not see il in that light. Certainly the
elections IN New Hampshire and Con-
neciicut look ike sustaining General
Grant aud the party that carried Us
safely through the rebellion, giving us
a united and free country
P.S. Late European papers inform
as that Bismarck docs net recognize
this Mr. schurz either a. ~ friend, or
the friend Of Germany
After all this bowling ii tie United
States Senate for the benefit OF bis
German friends schurz will no doubt
be intensely disgusted at being snubb-
ed IN this uneetemonious manner by
bis frieads across the water Put DOT
your trust IN Princes Mr. schurz
will d. woll 70 remember this here
after.
