A Good Story of Thad. Stevens.
TFrom The PhTddelphia Press

That genial fellow, John L. Thomas, of Bal
timore, tells this good story about the Great
CommOncr of Pennsylvania: When l was in
Congress l used to be frequcnter of the
room of old Thad. Stevens. One day, while
talking together a visitor entered unexpect-
edly. She was tall, raw-bOned woman, with
ox-bOw spectacles on the bridge of her nose,
and a bulky green gingham umbrella. She
handed Mr.. Stavens card with the words,

and said:
"Do | have the honor of beholding the Hon.
Thaddeus Stevens, of Pennsylvania 2"
Somewhat embarrassed, Mr. Stevens acknowl-
edged his identity, and asked his visitor to be
seated.
Thank you no." was the reply, "but I
wish to say, sir, that in my quiet home down
East have heard of your glorious efforts in
behalf of the emancipated slave, of your
heroic treatment of the Southern question,
and of your undying hostility to- the enemies
of my country, and l have travelled hither, sir,
to ask the privilege of shaking your hand"
She shook it.
"Now, sir, have one more favor to ask. 1t

Old Thad. was for moment more embar-

upon the table, leaving his pate as bald as a

A Mosaic Portrait of Garfield.
TFrol the London TImes.1


A remarkable portrait of the late American
President has just been executed by Messrs.
Salviati and Burke of Regent street, the WELL
known artists, in mosaic and Venetian glass.
The portrait, which is an undeniably good
likeness, is oval in form, with dimensions OF
about 3 feet by q feet 1t contains in all,
about 5000 tesser9, the largest of which are
perhaps half an inch square, while the smallest,
which have been used for the treatment of the
hair and beard, cannot be more than One-tenth
of an inch in diameter. 1t should be men,
toned that in all mosaic work the size of the
tesseTd is determined by the distance at which
the picture IS intended to be seen. In the vast
spaces of st. Marks this p0rtrait of General
Garfield would be wholly lost ana Lnetiectlvei
in the smaller compass of modern chamber
mosaic from ST. Marks would seem coarse and
unrefned in color and texture. Visitors to
Westminster Abbey will notice that in the mo-
saic-also by Messrs. Salviati-over the altar,
which, though seen from distance, is ap-
preached and apprOachable, this technical can
on has resulted in the use of medium-sized
tesSere. In the comparatively far off mosaics
of st. PauPs much larger individual pieces Of
color have been employed. The portrait of
General Garfield is a gift to the American Ma
tiOn, and will be placed in the Capitol at WASH
ingtOn, side by side with the mosaic likeness
of President Lincoln, which was presented by
Messrs. Salyiati some years ago. The gift has
been officially accepted by the American Gov

regularly produce novel every year, or even
more frequently The best prices received now
for works of fiction are small compared with
those OF twenty years ago, which was the

Trollope received more than fS000 for two of
his principal novels written between 1860 and
1865. Mr.. Wilkie Collins received 5000 guineas
for "Armadale," before Il line of the book was
written. George Eliot made over f15,000 by

His Days We're Long In the Land.


Stephen B. Todd, wealthy bachelor, Of
Dunellen, Ned last week, aged -. He was in
many respects most remarkable man. He
was almost literally the father of Dunellen,
owning all the land on which the village was
constructed. His reverence for his parents at
tracted the attention of all who knew him. No
creature, not even a chicken, owned by his
parents was ever sold or killed; all were kept
until they died of old age. He had a COW %
years of age most carefully nourished and
housed because it was a calf that his mother
had raised. The old rockaway in which his
father and mother rode has been carefully in
closed in his barn, and to his death no one had
ever been permitted to use it. Every little
article used by his mother he seemed to almost
worship and to cherish with reverence. Al
though he was very economical, he was very
kind-hearted, and kept n stove in his barn and
man to attend it Ill order to keep his cattle
comfortable. His cattle followed him about
the fields like children. His estate is valued
at over 100000, which will go to his brothers
and sister
