Mrs. Jessie Benton Fremont, daughter of
Observation-Disclosures Benton, and wife
Of the Pathfinder, is still a very remarkable
woman Those who have seen her lately de-
scribe her as stout in figure, fluent in speech,
and kindly benevolent in expression of couu-
tenance. She is the constant companion of
her husband; acting as his private secretary
and confidential adviser in his administrative
work as Governor of Arizona. she has a
methodical mind, is a good business manager,
and has more than once reduced to order the
chsos Of her husbands business affairs. Once,
though, the task Of setting him to rights
proved too big All undertaking. Her "Story
Of the Guard" written shortly after Fremont's
deposition from The command he held and
abused during the famous Hundred Days in
Missouri, was intended to work his reinstate-
ment III popular favor, but failed in accom-
plish;ng Its mission. From the autumn of
'5G, when Fremont calamity led his party to
defeat, lie has steadily descended in public
estimation until to-day when only an occa-
sjoaal mention serves to remind US that such
a person is III existence.

THE SECOND PLACE.

The machine mon in convention achieveda
sort of minor triumph after all ia the noml-
nation of Arthur. whose choice was entirely
their work. The nomination of Washburne
for the second place would have constituted
y ticket too pure in the way of personal hon
e.ty to suit the taste of a certain section OF
the party SO to make sure of their co-opera-
ton a representative of custom house corrup-
ton was selected in tho person of Arthur.
Besides, it gave the Grant men an opportunity
at once Of inflicting defeat on their rivals, the
Blaine faction, aud also Of Furnishing Wash
burne for the Cook county affair, as well as
for his subsequent course IN conserving to he
a candidate after having made the most SOL
emn promises to use his influence in Grants
favor. And it must be confessed Washburne
deserved the fate that overlook him, unless
indeed, lie prove to be the victim of most de-
ceptive appearance, tending strongly TO convict
him of treschery towards a friend. After
voluntarily promising to support Grant, it
seemed rather 'too thin," as we say in Mon
tana, for him to go away off to New England
there to suffer ar attack of the mumps or
something Of that kind, becoming an invalid
while his Illinois TO flowers went into sn ALI
anca with the Blaine men to defeat Grant,
This fit of sickness seemed suspicioasly orpor-
tune, but the story as told was accepted with
charitable credulity. Granting, though,
that the opposition in Illinois was
satisfactorily explained away, how are
t ,o,o,>o;1n W,elhpr,>se profsstons
of almost canine faithfulness to his mas
ter, Grant, with his course in taking position
against him as rival candidate in convention.
This was a little too much, and the action of
one of Grants supporters who seconded
Wa.hburne's nomination in order that he
might have the privilege of Withdrawing his
name, and thus throwing cold water on the
movement t~avoring his nomination, shows
that Washburne's tactics were given no very
favorable Interpretation. But be has no reas-
horse and has no right to kick against the
strictly equine fate of being well curried. In
the motion to nominate Wsshburns, the
Blaine men saw another opportunity which
their we'll developed talent for counting disas-
ter would not allow them to neglect. Once
more they massed their forces beneath the
Blaine banner, and once more they suffered
overwhelming defeat. This is their third rout
under Blaine leadership, 4 circumstance like
ly to I%onvince them that Mr.. Blaine 10 a good
man to drop; so we may reasonably expect
to see no more of that illustrious statesman
in the character of a Presidential candidate.
So mote it be.

Garfield and Arthur is the Chicago ticket.
The latter was collector of custoras Ct New
York, and his nomination is a sop to Cerbe-
rus in The way of Il concession to The Tom
Murphy and Boss Shepard type of republicans
who might otherwise consider the nomination
upon themselves. The choice of Arthur for
the second place conciliates the custom house
ring and premises q most edifying degree Of
harmony in tie party. That the party should
not become too pure seems to be tie principal
rare of the managers.

THE DEFEATED.

Foreigners in visiting this country have
frequently remarked how quickly a popular
favorite of the American people often makes
the transition from the height of popular
favor to the lowest depth of public disesteem.
The idol of to-day for whose elevation we
cannot find a pinnacle sufficiently high. is to-
morrow the neglected and despised individual
for whom we cannot find a pit of execration
half deep enough. He who this year is the
observed of all observers, whose actions furn-
ish a theme tor a thousand pens, who occu-
pies the foreground in the estimation of his
countrymen, will next year have dropped
completely out of sight in the surging tide of
everyday humanity, overwhelmed and en-
quilted by the pillows of oblivion. This
fickleneSs of favor is not as a general thing
observed by ourselves, since we are not prone
to differentiation; still there are sometimes
changes so rapid, so striking in our esteem
of public men as to challenge the atten-
ton Of even the most unretlectiug. An
instance of this kin was furnished a
few years ago in the case of Col
fax, and to-day we have another in that
of the person who filled with Colfax the
Presidential ticket of '6S. Conside r the est
nation in which Grant was held by his csun-
trymen on his return from foreign lands only
a few months ago, and compare it with our
opinion of him to-day. Then he was the
great soldier, the illustrious citizen whose
great merits were only equaled by his mod
esty. To-day he is the bafiied schemer, whose
demand for a third term had not even the
redeeming merit of manliness in the making
of it; whose lmpudence in claiming an honor
declined by Washington and Jackson brings
him into very unfavorable comparison with
those illustrious names. Grant, six months
ago, was the great commander to whom defeat
was unknown. To-day he is the great defeated.
He is the man whose ambition raised in the
minds Of many a doubt concerning the
strength and permanence of our institutions,
and news of whose defeat is received As no.
tice Of release from a great impending danger.
Popular judgment on Grant and his ambition
has been voiced in the opinion so frequently
expressed within the past few months to the
effect that if again inaugurated he would be
eAS h"oS ~ SFVl W tAhC Ol0 odtu u
oftice-that with his third Inauguration would
come a change in our form of government so
radical as to amount to a subversion of our
most revered institutions. Should the reader
question the universal prevalence of this ap-
p%rehension, let him examine attentively his
" feelings and see if he do not ente, tain
brighter and more hopeful views of his coun-
try's future, now that it has escaped the me-
mace Of a third term, than he did a few days
ago while that danger was still confronting it.
Such All examinatlon will convince him he no
longer entertains the respectful regard once
felt for General Grant. And this change is uni
versal, but Grant has no one to thank for it
but himself. he voluntarily descended from
the high place given him in the esteem of his
fellow countrymen, a place to which he will
never again be elevated.

OFFICIAL MODIFICATION.

CHICAGO, June 9.-Near midnight the
committee appointed by Senator Hoar to wait
on Garfield and Arthur to notify them OF their
nomination met them in the club room OF the
GranAl Pacific hotel, and Senator, as chairman,
made an appropriate speech, to which Garfield
replied:
Mr.. Chairman and Gentlemen Il assure
you that the information you have officially
given TO me brings the sense OF very great
responsibilities, especially SO in view of the
fact that | WAS a member Of your body, a tact
that could not have existed with propriety

name would be connected with the nomina-
ton for the office. l have felt with OIL great
solicitude concerning orr party's situation
during the struggle. but believing that you
are correct in assuring me that substantial
! unity has been reached in the conclusion, it
gives me a qualification far greater tl'an any
personal pleasure your announcement can
bring. | accept the trust committed to my
hands, as to the work Of our party and rs TO
the character of the campaign to be entered
upon. | will take an early occasion to reply
more fully Than l can properly do to-niehs. !

aud esteem you have presented to me, and
hope we shall see our future as promising as
are the indications Tonight.

With Derby like hat of her brother Ben
Which she wore to little one-slded, when
She walked in the streets, so admired by men;
And coat of a masculine pattern-Ben
Often said he could not tell girls from men,
And calling one day on her friend, Miss

She stood with her hands in her pockets,
when
Behind her approached youth-"Ha. Benz!
He shouted, and 0, such a thump! All then
Arose thrieks tina. would never, he knew.

Can describe the youth s CONSERVATION, when
He discovered the sister instead of Ben.
He begged her forgiveness again and again,
But she could mob have granted forgiveness
