JOhn MOrrissey's Nomination For
the Presidency.

From Washington Correspondent.
Senator Beck, of Kentucky, furnishes innu.
merablo newspaper stories. He can tell
story himself about as we'll as anybody In the
country. The following, in relation to the
Kentucky Senator and his visit to st. Louis
during the convention of 1876, comes from
one who heard and saw all that Is related:
Mr.. Beck was in st. Louis, but whether as del
egate or as spectator is immaterlal. He
stopped aI the Southern Hotel. Another dis.
tingulshed guest of the Southern on that occa-
sion was John Morrlssey, eX-prlze.hghter AMI
ex-Congressman Of New York, who was there
as the friend of Mr.. Tflden and the opponent
OF Tammany. Probably no man IN the great
crowd OF visitors who filled the city then at
tracted as much attention on the streets as
Ing his stay Beck, having kept very
late hours, rose late In tho morn
Ing aud found himself quite untitled
for the days routine. So he went into room
I'm the rear of saloon, and, finding very com.
fortahlel looking sofa, stretched himself out for
rest, which atterward became sound sleep.
II must have been about o'clock IN tho az.
ternoon whom no was suddenly awakened by
loud shouting on the street. 1t was on the
behalf OF Mr.. Morrlssey, ami was done by Il
crowd of men and boys who had followed that
gentleman into or out of Gregory's "Wtnter
Garden" near by. Everybody on the street
seemed to Join the chorus, 'Hurrah for Nor
risseyl" MI. Beck, about halt asleep and
half awake, rushed to the street, and the first
person he chanced 70 meet was Colonel Tom
Nelson, Of Terra Haute, Ind, Republican Ia
politics and wag In practice. "rOm," said
Mr.. Beck, excltediy, rubbing his eyes, '"what
do these fellows mean by hurrahlng for Nor.
risseyY Just then there was another shout
for the big New Yorker from crowd surging
toward the.Southern Hotel, Nelson looked
at Beck for moment, and took In the
situation as manifested In his drowsy eyes.
"Haven't you heard the news? Why, Morris
sey has been nominated" said he to the Ken
tuckian. Nominated for what?" eagerly In
quired Mr.. Beck. ''FOr President OF the
United States by the National Democracy Ia
convention assemblies" said Mr.. Nelson IN a
tone OF voice and with a manner OF which he
alone is the master. "Great Godl" said Mr
Beck. "You don't say they have nominate
John Morrlssey for Presidents" 81 do say It
and that's what all this hurrahing means,
replied the gentleman from Indiana. ''rhC
masses Of your party are for Morrissey, Mr.
Beck" Mr.. Beck had by this time opened hi;
eyes a little Wider. AS another "Hurrah fo
Morrissey" greeted his ears, he said Mr.. Mol
son; swell, the masses may be for M1rrlssey
but his nomination Will play hell With III

General Rosecrans was at dinner party
last evening. During the festivities mime
host proposed tho toast, Here's to you,
General, with the hope that you may be tho
next Presidential candidate on the Demo-
cratic ticket" The toast was drank and
"Old Rosy" faced the host and remarked
gravely:
THAT reminds me of an incident which
occurred during Old Zachary Taylor's ca
Teer 1t was on tho eve Of the meeting
of the nominating convention of his party,
when he was approached by an old ac-
quaintance in New Orleans After some
conversation the old noighbor said:
General, we want you to run for the
Presidency
Who wants me to run p inquired old
Zach, seriously.
we do-your old neighbors.'
90 We'll, if that's tho case,' he replied,
without changing the expression of his
face, guess I'll have to rum"

Three gentlemen strolled into one of our
hotels yesterday, and going up to the news
stand, purchased afternoon papers. One
purchased Star, and after reading awhile,
exclaimed
well, I'll be id p
Hello" said his friend; "what has
caused that outbreak ?"
Why, just this: The Star has way of
throwing out insinuations against in
dividuals, which are calculated to do them
injury, and then when taken to task
for its course, it meanly and
contemptibly crawls out of it
by deceptive remarks, if not by absolute
lying Here is u case in point. 1t says to-
day
The statement In tho papers that Senator
Anthony's illness is duo to "high living" Is
denied by his friends In Washington who say
that, on the contrary, during his long service
mere, he has always lived quietly, and whom
dining out las he was bound to do as n public
mani occasionally, was even abstemious In
eating and drinking
"Now you would naturally suppose that
the Star had never intimated anything
about Senator Anthony's habits. But turn
to the first page of the issue of Monday
last and there will be found the following /:
Senator Anthony was 6S years oil on the
| first day ofthis month. During his 2l years
| in the United States Senate, he has been very
| popular in Washington society, and his pres
ent physical condition Is no doubt due, In a
| large measure, to high living
"Thus you see that this so-caled news
paper was the first to circulate the report in
| Washington; but it had not the manliness
TO acknowledge the fact aud apologize, but
| it shields itself behind the convenient
| phrase, the statement in the papers
| Senator Anthony was supposed to be dying
the sun of power was going down, and the
| star, with its usual courage, could afford to
| give the dying lion q parting kick but
| when a friend comes to the rescue it gno-
miniously crawls away under the shadow OF
paragraph full of deceit"

Fifteenth and F streets northwest. His
commanding words were directed to a
good-looking, intelligent gentleman, prob

scarcely forty. AS the law-maker hurried
on up the street the gentleman he had
spoken to stood and looked after him con-
temptuously.

who had overheard the words uttered.

Yesterday afternoon the clerk was met
