life size, full-length portrait, now nearly
ready for the Blue Room of the mansion.
The President never dreamed of or desired
greater political honor than the second office
in the gift of the people To a friend who
vsked him in June, 1880, why he ac-
cepted the nomination for Vice-presi-
dent, he replied because he believed he
would be elected; and through the Office of
Vice-president he could divorce himself from
local politics and politicians in New York,
while it would be his aim to give to the Of
flee prominence through social relations it
never before had. If Garfield had lived,
president Arthur would have been
fully as luxurious in his habits as he is now.
He would have been free to come and so
without the constraint he is now under. He
regrets with deepest sorrow the event which
put upon him the responsibility and the an
noyances of the presidential office. With
the invigorating help of trip through the
Yellowstone Park next summer, some quiet
weeks along the st. Lawrence and repose at
the Soldiers Home-with these adjuvants he
hopes to be able to endure one more Con-
gress and then welcome Republican sue
cessor to the presidential Office.

to an island, some mile or so off shore, and
there left them with one-third of our pro-
visions.
The principal incident which happened at
this place and the one calculated to make the
strongest impression on a man was the find
ing of a small iron pot. For months we con-
trived to live there. The men had good
health, and that was the most we could ask
for. Of course we knew that in the fullness
of time we must be rescued by some vessel or
other, but if we had known what was trans
piring short distance from US we should
not have been so contented to wait. The
owners of the wrecked Trinity had sent the
sloop-of-war Marion to Hurd's Island, about
forty miles from us, to look after the crew.
They found them and took them off and
without going to the rendezvous at all or
coming to US passed by our harbor, within
fifteen miles of our tents, on the home voy
age. 1t seems TO me that they might have
made some slight efforts to look for US, mas
much as they must have known something
was the matter with us.
Our rescue did not take place until Sept.
6, after over eleven months of castaway life.
1t was brought about by no accident. The
owner of our vessel, Mr.. G. A. Williams of
New London, sent out vessel of his own to
look for us, and, knowing where our stores
were kept, came directly to our harbor. AT
ter we were rescued we continued to help
them in getting in the cargo. 1t was not
until Jan. % of this year that we put in at
Cape Town. l arrived home last Wednesday.
The mate also came home. The rest of the
crew, believe, are somewhere on their way.
Everybody is safe and sound, though L don t
think any of them are DESTROYS OF having the
experience OF the past two years over again.

1ngersoll's Eloquent Impromptu Speech.

washington correspondence New YORK world.
The funniest spectacle which Colonel In
gersoll ever presented was some time ago,
upon an occasion otherwise solemn and re-
pressive of levity. 1t was at the time of his
brothers death, wnen he delivered eulogy
over the coffin, which his admirers declare to
be the finest of fine things. 1t is CHASTITY
subject to create a smile about, but when the
friends of the family came to the house to
offer their sympathy, Colonel Ingersoll could
not be seen-he was in the buffers pantry in
fever of composition over the impromptu
to be delivered on the day of the funeral.
He sat there with paper and pencil,
dashing off a sentence marking it out,
practcing the attitude and delivery, and in
tent upon making a tremendous sensation
whenever the impromptu was detained; so,
sure enough, amid the solemnity of the
funeral occasion Colonel Ingersoll arose, ar
rayed in full evening dress-it was in the
middle of summers day-and delivered mis-
impromptu with the unctuous sorority for
which he is celebrated. 1t would take the
pen of Thackeray to describe the delicious
cant, the resounding platitudes, the wonder
full assaults upon the English language con-
tanned in this address of the great apostle of
cap-trap, and his first inquiry after it was
over was: "How did you like it?' One
ought not to laugh at such things, but it is
impossible not to; the impromptu was funny
enough, but the swalowtail coat finished
the business

MIR. BLAINE'S RELIGION.
An Old Private Letter for Some Reason Now
Made Public.

The Pittsburg Pa. Dispatch published the
following letter written by the Hon. James
G. Blaine seven years ago to the late Dr.
James King, of Pittsburg:
WASHINGTON, March 10, 1876.
My Dear Friend-I agree with you that the
charge of my being Catholic is very provoking
considering the motive that inspires IT, and very
eXasperating when | see it conniYed at If not in
fact originated by men who sat with me in
Presbyterian Bible class when | was a student
and you professor in Washington College. This
charge is part and parcel of the tactics OF the
Cameron gang to rob me of the Pennsylvania
delegates when, in fact four-ttfths of the Re-
pubicans of the State desire my nomination.
My ancestors on my fathers side were, as you
know, always identified with the Presley
church, and they were prominent and honored
in the old colony of Pennsylvania
several generations before the Came
rons blessed Scotland by leaving it. But while
thanking you for what you have done TO set my
PittSburg friends right on the question, | will
never consent TO make any public declaration
on the subject, and for two reasOns First, be-
cause abhor the introduction of anything that
looks like a religious test qualification for
office in republic where perfect freedom of
conscience is the birthright of every citizen;
and, second, because my mother was, as you
well know, u devoted Catholic. would not for
a thousand presidencles speak disrespectful
word of my mothers religion, and no pressure
will draw me into any avowal of hostility or I'M
friendliness to Catholics, though | have never
received, and do not expect, any political sup
port from them. You are at liberty to show this
to the gentleman who urged you to write me.
Many thanks for Your kind invitations, but
can hardly promise myself the pleasure of a visit
to western Pennsylvania this spring. You know
in the MOnongahela valley. Always sincerely
your friend, j. u. BLAINE.

PETER COOPER.
Why He Wished to Live Few Years
Longer-A Beautiful Old Age.

Rev. Robert Collyer.
In talk we had together few months
ago he said: 81 should like to live three or
four years longer, if 1 may, and finish up
some bits of work that are still in my hands,
but if 1 may not live so long 1 should be
quite content to go when my time comes, for
have had very long and happy life" and
cannot believe there is a man in the world
who, hearing what 1 have heard, would not
have said what lay in my own heart: "If our
love and longing to have you stay with us
could prolong your life to the last day of
your desire, not for your sake alone, or for
the work you want still to do, but that you
may just stay among us and remain our
choicest example of a beautiful old age
then you should live" for this, as it seems to
me now, was the best Ito those who knew
him best) that it was Peter Cooper, that beau
tiful old man.
The splendid force you elder men remem-
Der, by which he was able to hold his own
against all corners almost ever since the CEN
fury came in, was there no longer, or the far
seeing sagacity perhaps, or the swift intui-
ton we may well call genius, or the patience,
or the endurance, like heart of oak. The
strong man bowed to the inevitable touch of
time; the silver cord was loosed and the
golden bowl was breaking. We all are aware
how the earthly tabernacle of this house was
dissolving year by year. But the lovely in
ner light shone through with such a pure
and gentle radiance that we found it hard to
imagine how we would have him other than
he was at fourscore and twelve. He brought
back to my memory when l would see him
that good apostle Eliot who, when he was a
very old man, and friend asked him how
he Jared, said, My understanding is not
what it was some years ago, and my memory
fails me little, and my speech; but l thank
God my charity holds out well and
grows" So he might have said,
and for this we loved him,
so that when the good white head gave
out little he steered more and more by the
heart. His love for our human kind never
failed, or his concern for us. or his faith in
the teeth of all disaster. He was to many
men what our good poet was to one who,
when a friend said to him, "Why do you let
that person trouble your? answered, Simply
because there is no other man on the earth
that l know of that he can go to-" This, 1
think, was why we loved him most dearly at
the last, rot for his works sake, but for his
own sake. He so simple and sunny
hearted, it was such a beautiful old age. 1t
was as when you watch the SHOWS lying thick
above you, while you sit among the vines
and roses in quiet hooks we know of, and
hear the birds singing summer songs in the
copse. 1t was such a beautiful old age and
we knew it had not come to him by a swift
invasion of heaven at the last, but was the
ripenng OF his faith and his being

The Deathbed of Stanton.


General Barnes, who died last Thursday
gave me an account of the dying scenes of
Edwin NJ. Stanton while his eyes were yet
worn with the watching and wet with the
grief of that great mans loss, the Earl of
Chatham of America. 1t was in his plain
office, next to Riggs bank, in Washington.
Yet there are ignorant and assassin-minded

Stanton cut his throat. Others know that

How to Treat Drunk Man.

DR.. A. II. Nichols.
A man who is thoroughly drunk needs as
different causes is unable to take care of HIM
self His temperature is lowered and he is
liable when in such condition to contract
disease, especially pneumonia. He should
be put to bed and kept warm instead of be-
ing locked up in cold cell. OF course it
does not seem just, according to the common
way of looking at the matter, to treat man
well who has voluntarily placed himself in
such a state, but when you think that life
may be at stake it does not seem so unrea-
sonable. A drunken man is almost invara-
bly, in q condition to contract pneumonia
the worst form of this disease being alcoholic
pneumonia, and very few of these cases re-

Judge Gresham's Ambition.
Interview with General R. $. Foster.

WIN NNiiN''N' - 11tNA'
Judge Gresham's ambition is to be circuit
Judge If he had been circuit judge now, he
would never have accepted a cabinet posi-
ton. But now you see what an immense
advantage this will be to him in case of
circuit judge vacancy. 1t is possible that
before the two years of Arthurs term ex-
pires Circuit Judge Drummond will retire.
In that case Judge Gresham will be sure to
be given the position, and he will accept it.
But if he had declined this position in the
cabinet, Arthur would never have offered
him another position; and if Judge Drum
mond should vacate the circuit judgeship,
there would be senators from Illinois, the
Secretary of War, senators from Wisconsin,
all come in for their man. Judge Gresham
would have stood very poor chance of APP
pointment. Now, if vacancy should occur,
unless it should occur too soon, Arthur will
say to Gresham "You left life position to
come into my cabinet now Twill give you
this OF course, if a vacancy would occur
in month or two, it would not look well
for Judge Gresham to ask for place, nor for
Arthur to offer it to him, so soon after his
going into the cabinet.

A Triumph of Goodness.



For half a century the figure Of Peter
Cooper has often been seen among men
gathered to render honor to whom honor
was due; but the most notable demonstration
in which he ever took part was that OF which,
yesterday, he was the sole cause. Neither
soldier nor statesman, politician nor priest,
this modest private citizen passed to his long
home through ranks of his fellow-men, who
had quietly marshalled themselves in o5edi-
ence to no call but that which each man
heard from his own better self. Thousands
of those who barred their heads as the simple
hearse with its hidden coffin passed by were
beneficiaries of the man who, instead of
blaming fate for what he had not enjoyed
in his youthful days had disarmed fate for
others by giving that which it had not been
his privilege to receive The others, also,
were his benefciaries, in a larger sense, for
the spectacle of his noble life had been to
them by times an encouragement and re-
buke. People of all grades viewed the pro-
cession, and were the better for it; the critic,
the cynic the materialist all held their
tongues and communed with doubts, for of
what avail is selfish philosophy against the
record of life like that of Peter Cooper?
Men who were poor realized what had been
accomplished by man whose beginnings
were as humble as their own, and rich men
anxious to be highly regarded by their fell
lows could not doubt, as they gazed at the
throng, where lay the true road to fame, or
that

'arnen's Characteristics.


Parnell struck me as being man of con-
resolute and devoted to the cause for which
he struggles. l should also say that he is
dexterous. He regretted that he was too in
experienced to direct the movement which
suddenly declared itself when Mr. Gladstone
took office. The leaders were borne away
with its impetuous violence. They had not
time to select good instruments, or to con-
slider any step they took What Parnell now
wants, he says, to do in America and else
where is to make blind force (Which is de-
structive because blind) an intelligent and
benefcenC force
