HOW SAM BowLEs LOOKED

Samuel Bowles, of the Springfield Repub.
hcdn, met very often, and he was queer
compound of engaging manners mixed with
the greatest brusqueness, which increased as
he approached his own Office, where the boys
working with him seldom felt very easy or
familiar when he came around. l suppose
that he was a sick man good deal of the
time and his stomach afflicted his writing.
He loved to be in minority, and spent the
latter years of his life in making ready TO
conclude the Republican party. He sup
ported Greeley in 1872, but without effect,
and after that he seemed always to be trying
to get even with the party which had net
adopted his suggestions. Once, at Washing
ton, Bowles invited number of persons to
bresL fast on the basis of each one paying for
his own food; but Horace White, who was
one OF The party, slipped out and settled The
whole bill, though he had not msde the
breakfast. / frequently met Bowles at Sara
toga, and he had a drell ss,t of way, with
queer suggestions in his talk. Once stopped
over at Springfield on purpose to see him,
having been asked to do so several times,
and as we walked around the town looking
at the improvements / commended a new
courthouse.
"Well,D said he, edo you suppose such
things will have any value in that coming
time when Victoria Woodruff and the rest
of Us going 10 regenerate this world?
Don't you suppose that courthouse will be-
come effete?"
He had a very pretty home at Springfield,
and his wife and son seemed docile, gentle
people, but the tired and sick look of Bowles
rather shadowed the place. Yet it was re-
markable to see man publishing paper in
such a little town attracting the attention
that Bowles did. He was much attached 10

great man, with the best instincts of a re-

GREAT EDITORS
Who Helped TO Make the American
Press the Power 1t Is-Gree-
ley, Bennett and Raymond.
Bryant, the Poet, Sam Bewles. Horace
White, Rogers, of Boston, and
Swayne, Of the Ledger.

L never had any acquaintance with after
met him In the peninsular campaign. He
was a medium-sized, sallow-skinned man,
with very vulgar nose, something on the
negro order, and ragged black whiskerE
combed out from his cheeks. He was neat
in his dress and very particular in his be-
havior, being suave, disliking to have quar-
rels, and although he would pass anywhere
for gentleman, careful person would look
at him twice TO see whether beneath that
plausible and almost engaging manner there
lay happy mind at ease with itself. He
was one of the most rapid workers on the
newspaper press in his time, and wrote q
pretty hand and very clear copy. He was a
reporter-not an extraordinarily, and
McElrsth once told me that the Tribune made
its first strides to circulation not through
Greeley's editorials, but through Raymond's
report of = murder trial. Raymond had a
country college education and started in at
the birth of the Tribune, about 1S41, at IS a
week. Ten years later ne started the Times,
having qusrreled with both his employers,
Greedy and Webb. When ] had my brief
acquaintance with Raymond the Times was
about eleven years old and a.6nancisl sue
cess, and Raymond had been lieutenant
governor OF New York and published the
organ of Lincoln's administration, being in
with SewarJ ]. Raymond had come on the
press so young and advanced so rapidly that
his faculties were altogether ahead of bis
judgment. While he was more popular
than Bennett and Greeley in miscellaneous
circles, he had not their pride in his profess
STOP, and was seeking to get popular honors.
He was a waspish man, Notwithstanding mis-
agreeableness, and had very little liberality
or philosophy. Success was his idea of life.
Greeley gave Raymond the name of the
Little Villain" Raymond took hard ad-
vantage of all Greeley's errora OF good in

TWO ACTIVE EDITORS.

very remarkable man of his kind was
Major Rogers, the publisher OF the Boston
Journal, who accumulated one of the largest
fortunes ever made in newspapers. / some
times met him on the road 10 Washington.
He was hard drinker; but he had force of
character, and knew how to spend his money,
and did it literally. He made the Journal
one of the most refining and satisfying
American papers toward the close Of the
war. The Boston Herald afterward took q
large part of his constituency.
1 knew Mr.. Swayne, one OF. the founders
and the principal spirit of the Philadelphia
Ledger. When ! was boy in Philadelphia
he would sometimes meet me on Third
street, when he was excited by drink, and
would nearly break my back pulling me to
him, and often slipped in somewhere, eee-
ing him coming, that he might go by. He
was one of the three persons who established
the Ledger, but the small occupation OF boil
ing down items was not enough for his
robust spirit, and having been one of the
earliest promoters of the telegraph, he looked
toward inventions as a larger means both of
usefulness and of wealth. He finally sold
the Ledger for a email sum of money, not
being in condition of body and mind to ex-
ercise his usual ssgzcity in changing it 10
meet the alteration in the currency. 1t was
3 one-cent paper. Swayne was afraid the
skinny Philadelphians would not pay two
cents for the Ledger, and meantime paper
had gone up until every white sheet cost more
than one cent, and with a circulation of per-
haps $4,000 copies, an immense hole was be-
ing made in ms fortune. If he lost half
cent on each copy of this circulation it would
amount to 800 day, or S2400 a week, or
nearly SIPS, 600 year. The new parties
who bought the paper put one cent on the
price, and the people, however conservative,
b ad learned what the initiation of currency
meant, and knew that two cents was about
The same thing as one formerly.

A eLIMPsE OF BENNETT.

Although l was correspondent of the New
York Herald at various times during several
years, L never saw Bennett, sr., Ia the office
at the old building on Fulton street. He was
a neat-looking man, particularly WE'LL
dressed, wearing long coat like spring
overeoat; and his skin had the clear tint
Of an abs.emious man; his hair was
turned IN color but seemed thick, while his
eyes, which were sskew, yet had an expires.
sion Of dignity. Having no business with
him l never got in his way. 1 never met his
son but once, though L was a copious writer
on the Herald after the father died. Mr..
Connery, the younger Benefits manager,
desired me to meet him, and it was foolish
on my part to avoid the meeting, which /
did, although an arrangement was twice
made for me to go to Mr.. Benefits house.
Some one had told me that he was uncertain
and brusque. Doe day in the Herold Office
Conuery said, 81 want You to 60 in here
now and zee Mr.. Bennett. He knows you
are here and expects you." So went into
a small room in the present Herald building
ard found young man who looked almost
as frightened as myself. He was thin,
almost lean like a greyhound, and stam-
mered a little as he undertook to express
himself. Mr.. Bennett has many good traits
and some strong ones. did very foolish
Thing in not meeting his ho-pitable inten-
tions and becoming acquainted with him.

A PEN PICTURE OF BRYANT

/ never saw Willism Cullen Bryant bat
twice, the first time when wac going up the
stairs of The old Post building on Nassau
street, to see Mr.. Nordhof, passed at GER
tain room smsllish man of spare body,
with rather sharp, discontinued face, and
while 1 was opposite the door he called for
somebody in a rasping voice like bark,
eeming to chow temper neither originally
good nor much improved. After S ,muel
j. Tilden became governor his first social
performance was to give a reception in the
executive mansion at Albany to Mr.. Bryant,
whose newspaper was at that time hesitating
between the two parties, and Bryant's sou-in-
law, Goodwin, had become an advocate of
Tilden. The Herald sent me with DIR. Hosmer,
one of lis writers, to Albany to sketch the
reception. The attendance was very miscel-
laneous, in the main was m ade up of Albany
politicians. Young Mr.. Pelfon, who sfter-
ward gave his uncle 30 much trouble and
died before his date, seemed to have charge of
the household affairs. Mr.. Tilden, with his
goggle-eyes and inexpensive face, wearing
almost stupid, indeed, a dead look, stood
at one end of the line of people; his sister,
Mrs. Pelton, and 1 think the Misses Pelton
being two Others, and then came Bryant
with his two daughters. fpassed along the
line and said 10 Mr.. Bryant that when / was
boy l had named a literary society for
him, which was still in existence. He re-
piled in dry, insipid voice that he had re-
ceived great deal Of credit for sery little
work. The busts oil him convey the idea
that he was a large, massive man, but he
was lean and hungry looking, and there was
something insipid in his tone. When be was
a comparatively young editor in New York
he we 1t out hunting rival editor one day
with his stick, and beat him publicly.

George NJ. Pullman is a man With the
same order of genius as Fender. Years ago,

MEssRs. EDIroRs For the benefit
Of your many readers we will try and
describe the particulars OF tragical af-
fair which occurred yesterday, Friday,
January 9th, and which almost result
ed in double crime The leading
subject, was a young man by the name
Of William Shokey, who ia the son Of

ship, at the age of two end one-half
years, and, had he lived until next
September, would be twenty years of
age, having been in the family of Mr..
Flick about II years. On Friday
morning last, Smokey left home early
in the morning and it was thought by
the family that he had gone to his
work, which was q job of chopping,
which he was doing for one of the
neighbors. But it proved to be mis-
take, tor the next place he was seen
was in the neighborhood of McGown's
school house, in West Deer township,
Allegheny county, by Miss Emma
Allison, who is teaching school at the
above school house this winter When
seen by Miss Allison, on her way to
school, he was armed with a gun,
which seems to have frightened her,
and she returned to the house of Mr..
Scott and got that gentleman to ac-
company her to the school house. But
on their return Smokey was not to be
seen, and as far as we can understand
was not seen until betW cen FIVE and
six o'clock that evening, when Miss
Allison, in company with a Miss
Scott, were returning from school and
when about half q mile from the school
house, they saw Shokey running in
pursuit. They Immediately started to
run and while they were in the act Of
crossing fence Smokey fired a single
barrel shot gun at them, not. however,
doing much injury to them beyond rid
ding the ladies' sbawls and clothing
with shot holes and imbedding one
grain of shot between the skin and
skull bone of Miss Allison 1t appears
that he then reloaded his gun and
started to run. In the meantime the
girls ran to the nearest house and gave
the alarm. Mr.. David Scott and 9TH
ers started in pursuit, tracking Sbokey

"GUIL As INDICTED. ,

Such was the verdict of the jury
against Guiteau on last Wednesday
evening-and one of the best results that
will flow from this long and patient
trial, is the fact that the jury acted 20
promptly in the matter. Had tney
hesitated it would have shown some
doubt and given some encouragement
to the idea that the law can be over
ridden. It would also have aneoqrag'
ed the plea of insanity in this country
for crime, and political assassination
might have become common. But this
prompt verdict will strike terror to all
desperate political adventures, both
high and low.
