an introduction to the comedian, eX-
pressed desire to read to him his piece,
| "L'Iuconstant," which he had just CON-
pleted.
Mole was all smiles and good will, and
a day was fixed for the rendezvous; but
on arriving at the appointed DOur the
dramatIst found that the bird had al
ready flown, and, returning home in
dudgeoD, told his friend what had hap
pened. BY the aid or the latter another
meeting WAS arranged with similar re-
suit, and this state Of things went ON
for several months, until Collin, losing
patience, invaded one evening the act
or's dresslng-roOm at the theater, and
reproached him bitterly for his conduct.
"My good sir" replied Mole, "what you
say is perfectly correct, and l owe you q
thousand apologies; but were to make
q dozen appointments with you just now
should most certainly mics them all.
FOUR only chance is to catch me at my
toilet, and then promise to listen 10
your piece"
Collin took the hint, and two days after

a comedy expressly intended for him
and received in due time what appeared
to be the manuscript, neatly tied up
with sky-blue ribbon. Naturally, the
roll remained unopened, ana on
each succeeding application for a
speedy decision the writer
was put off with promises,
until Mole himself, Wearied by the con-
slant opportunities of his visitor, gave
him back his property exactly as 1T had
been Delivered to him, saying that ne

| was unsuitable. Far from being con-

be corrected; and was informed in re-
ply that the plot was insignificant, the

A Talk NTH Senator Patterson.
WASHINGTON, July /.


Senator Patterson, of South Carolina,
has just returned from two weeks visit
to the Camerons, of Pennsylvania. The
trip was made without unnecessary noise,
for it is said that Governor Hartranft,
although again and again besougbt to do
so, would not promise not to surrender
Patterson on a requisition from the Gov
ernor of South Carolina. 1t was said
during the winter after Patterson's con-
valescence from his severe illness that ex-
Senator Simon Cameron had invited him
to spend few weeks with him in quie-
tude and rest; that the invitation was
accepted, but that Patterson hesitated
to make the trip, having heard that re-
quisition would be issued for him to re-
turn to South Carolina to answer the six
or eight indictments still pending there
against him. While the Senator remains
in Washington he cannot be disturbed,
being constructively in attendance upon
Congress, during which he is protected
from arrest under decision made by the
Court here last winter.
met Senator Patterson on the street
corner yesterday. He was waiting for
car. accosted him with: "How are
you, senator? Where have you been so

iting the Camerons. Had a splendid
time"
"How long were you gomez"

elbow is the old senator?"
20, he's as gay as rooster. Never
saw him looking better. His health is
first-rate. he is very happy, and damns
the Administration like the rest of u.s."
"Does Don damn it, too?"
20, yes, he never has liked it, you
know. tell you this crowd up in the
White House hasn't got any friends any
where. I didn't find any in Pennsyl-
vania."
"Well Senator, how is the political
situation in Pennsylvania ?" asked.
"The Republicans say they will carry
the State, and I am disposed to think
they will. The Democrats, however, say
they will carry 1t. The Republicans will
make big fight"
"What are Don's chances for re-elec-
toni"
"They are very good. 1t will cost him
heap of money, though"
"How is that ?"
"Oh these Nationals as raising thun-
der up there. But then Don can get
them even if any of them do get into the
Legislature"
"How?"
"Well, l don't care to talk about it;
but you know such movement is likely
to send a certain kind of people to the
surface, aud in large movement like
this few of certain kind will get into
the Legislature. The Nationals don't
scare Don any. But his election will
probably cost him good deal of money.
But he don't mind it. By thunder, there
goes my car! Good by"

ia yo;oa boo twono which q rotbor

lite. He has dark brown complexion.
His voice has twang which is rather
unpleasant to the ear. His eye is by no
means good, yet, unlike many criminals,
this he can keep immovably fixed upon
one while in conversation. He has
kind of sanctimonious air about him
which would lead one to suppose that he
had followed preaching for a living.
Although he can neither read nor write,
yet he is possessed Of more intelligence
than common for one of his race who has
passed most of his days on the farm.
With the exception of his eye, he is
rather respectable looking negro, and
from his appearance one would hardly
think that he would take the life of his
fellow man. He had, so far as I can
learn, always borne a fair reputation
previous to the murder of the Franklins.
WILLING AND PREPARED TO DIE.
In reply to question if he felt that
his sins were forgiven, he replied in the
affirmative, and said he was perfectly
willing to die, but did not want to be
hung for the sins of others. he had but
utLlo nope, HOWeYeE, VI escaping nlS teI'
rible doom, but felt that when his body
returns to dust his soul will be received
into the arms of his Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ.
GOOD HEALTH AND NO TROUBLING
DREAMS.
David said. his appetite was good and
he usually ate very heartily. His gen.
eral health was very good, and he was
never troubled at night by bad dreams,-
especially of the dead Franklins.
PUBLIC OPINION
Is much divided as to the innocence or
guilt of the condemned man. I have
conversed with the people in several acc
tions of the country on the subject, and
find few who believe he is innocent,
some who are undecided, others who
think the evidence was hardly strong
enough to convict him, while there are
still others, and a great majority, who
say he should be hung, and that the
Governor leans too far to the side Of
mercy in 80 often granting him new
lease of life, fearing that justice may yet
be cheated of her own.
