President LincOia's s;ory OF Jackson
and benton.

One evening at the White House the
conversation drifted to Benton, and
Mr.. Lincoln said the very room we
were sitting in had been the scene of
most characteristic adventure Of
Benton's with President Jackson.
When Benton came to Missouri he was
his brother and Jackson and several
others had difficulty in Nashville. in
which WAS the cause Of Benton coming
to Missouri. They had not met for
years, until Jackson WAS President and
Benton Senator from Missouri. alt
WAS in this ROOM" said President Lin
Jackson was seated at this very cable
when the door yonder swung open, and
BaltOn Stalked in and stood silently in
the middle of the floor. Jackson looked
up and recognized him at once, and
rocolecting ut the same time that he
had no weapon to defend himself.
Equally silent he got up, walked to the
door, locked it and put the key in his
pocket, and went back to his seat.
Then he said, "Does this mean war or
peace?"
alt means peace" said Benton.
Jackson again arose, walked to the
door, unlocked it, came back to his seat,
and then said, .'Ceionel Benton, | am
pleased to see you. Take a chair"
All this time Benton was standing
statuesquo!y in the center Of the room,
never moving a'muscle while jackson
was locking and unlocking the door,
and the reconciliation between the two
gent emen was complete. 1t simply
showed the dramatic character of the
man.

VI OHo 4hoHItol'I
NeaU York, Jan. 80, 1882.
A very disgraceful outbreak of the
young aristocrats of Princeton Col
lege has been reported, and a score
of the wild young imitators of the
Mohocks of Queen Anne's days have
been indicted for riot. They broke
out in the old foolish way of the
practical jokers of former times, in
England or France before the revolu
ton, and by way of what they were
pleased to call fun, destroyed good
deal of property, breaking bells,
fences and gates, changing store
signs and so on. Perhaps the reviv-
al of Queen Anne's architecture has
something to do with it At any rate,
the arrogance of recent wealth I'M
doubtedly has, and the sons of the
tony think they must keep up their
dignity and emphasize their superiO-
rity to common folks by such outra-
ges, patterned on what they have
read of the town and gown rows of
the European universities. When
the very funny Marquis of Water
ford, the prince of such ROSTERS was
over here, he was greatly taken down
by being sent to jail for a few days,
his rank and purse not peing worth a
cent to save him from the righteous
wrath of an American justice. Let
us hope the Princeton blackguards
will get like lesson as unsparingly
inflicted.

dull seems to be buckling itself to.

POSTAL ROBBERY AT
MONTPELIER.

Complaints having been made re-
Gently to the Pesteffice Department
that letters mailed at Montpelier did
not reach their destination, an inves-
tigation was made by Hon. George
III. Bigelow, special agent of the
PostOffice Department, which devel-
oped the fact that one mail bag was
lost December 9th and another Jan
uary 18th. They are supposed to
have been taken from the cars at the
Montpelier station between p. m.
and 3 a. IN. Several clues were fol-
lowed up, but proved fallacious, till
it was learned that Henry Bowers of
Montpelier, aged about 81, who has
been in the House of Correction fol
minor offences, was Offering one cent
postage stamps for sale at large
discount, and had some $500. Sus
picion pointed to him, as the Mont
pelier postmaster sent $500 one cent
stamps to this city by the mail OF
January 18th. A warrant was plac
ed in an officers hands, but Bowers
fed. Besides the stamps mentioned
there was package of seventeen
dollars from the East Montpelie1
postmaster and quite a number O
checks, notes, etc., from private par
ties, which makes trouble in business
but no permanent loss. Severa
small sums of money are said to hav
been in the mail at the same time
The bags, letters and everythin,
have disappeared. The suppose
thief has been arrested, but denie

Baldwin, the cashier of the Newark,
n. j., bank, who let two millions
slip through his hands, has pleaded
guilty and been sentenced to fifteen
years Imprisonment in the New Jer-
sey State prison. The sentence is a
severe one but none the less whole
some. 1t puts an end to the mis-
chievous talk that a thief who steals
millions stands better chance of es-
cape than one who steals a few dol
lars. 1t would be most unfortunate
for the security of property if the big
criminals have any advantage over
the little ones.

There is no abatement in the anti
Mormon movement. Last week
Chief Justice Hunter, of Utah, and
Judge Mcbride, of Salt Lake City,
had an interview with the President,
by appointment, and fully discussed
the Utah problem. Judge Hunter
was emphatic in urging the adoption
of the plan embodied in two bills now
pending in the House-one introduce
ed by Mr.. Willis, of Michigan, and
the other introduced by Mr.. Grout of
Vermont, each providing some form
of Legislative council, as affording
the only effectual means of curing the
wrongs of the Mormon system OF
government.

The purchase of a controlling in
terest in the St. Louis and San Fran
cisco railroad by Messrs. Gould and
Huntington shuts up what was ex-
pected to be an independent trans
pOrtation route to the Pacific coast
a rival to the Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific lines, and gives this
ring of monopolists three different
roads from the Mississippi to the
Golden Gate. The St. Louis and
San Francisco company are equal
partners with the Atchison, Topeka
and Santa Fe in the construction of
the Atlantic and Pacific road to Cali
fOrnia. This road will now, it is be-
lieved, make a junction with the
Southern Pacific at some point in
Arizona, giving the latter two arms
to the East with their various connec-
tions. We have thus the entire mail
communication across the continent,
with the exception of the Northern
Pacific road, though that, too, has
been threatened, in the hands of two
men, Jay Gould acting as eastern
partner and c. P. Huntington as
western. The Springfield Republican
thinks this is not healthy sign fol
the republic.

The subject of the issue of frac-
tional currency has recently been in
troduced in congress. The sugges
ton was that it should be issued as
formerly in ten, twenty-five and fifty
cent pieces, redeemable at the sub
treasury in sums amounting to one
hundred dollars, either in greenbacks,
gold or silver. A writer in the Bos-
ton Traveller urges the issue of frac-
tional currency for the following rea-
sons "In the first place we know
from experience that this kind of cur
rency is a very great con-
venience to the people, less cum
bersome to carry about the per-
son and very convenient if you
wish to transmit by mail fractional
part of a dollar; and then there is
another very strong argument in its
favor, and that is that the govern
ment would have the benefit of al
that should be lost or destroyed.
think that the reports show that O.
the large amount of fractional cur
rency issued during the war of thu
rebellion, some fifteen million dol
lars remain out to this day, and il
supposed to have been lost or de
stroyed."
