Hannibal Hamlin's Views of Gen. Grant.

President Hamlin to Globe correspond

eral Grants character is based upon my
knowledge of men in public life, and not
upcn any notion | may have conceived of
generalship as an art or a science. The fact
that | was intimately associated with Lin
coins first administration placed me in
position to learn many things concerning
General Grant that are not generally under
stood, and it is on these, as well as upon his
subsequent career as a President and citi-
zen, that | have formed my ideas Of him.
| make these predatory remarks to the
Globes readers in order to tell them of the
angle from which view him.
Although Mr.. Hamlin is more than I5
years of age, and has voluntarily retired
from public life. his eyes are as keen and his
form as erect as it was when he first entered
Congress forty years ago. If it were MT
for his gray head and a few wrinkles around
his temple, ''lhe hale man who never wore
an overcoat' might pass for a person of half
his years.
81 have always entertained and expressed
a high degree of admiration for General
Grant said he, rising and walking back and
forth on the carpet. My estimate OF Grants
military abilities has not been based alone
on his success in crushing the rebellion.
If the people Of the North had unlimited
power they would contribute but one If tse

was wanting on the part OF the genera-in-
chief high moral courage capable Of great
resolutions, and physical courage which

CHAPTER 2nd.

Two years have passed away, but Miss
Bourbon is Miss Bourbon still Her most
intimate friends cannot imagine why she has
refused so many eligible offers. Only Mrs.
Hayes has guessed that the memory of an
island far away still remains in her mind, for
to that dear friend Bertha told Of the offer
she had refused while there. But that
was soon after she arrived at home, before
she had commenced to regret her hasty
anger, since she had never spoken of Gerald
Stephens, except sometimes to inquire if
Mr.. Hayes or Charlie still heard from him.

A LUSCIOUS SHOW.

What Connecticut Can Do i'm she
 strawberry Line.
 The State strawberry show held at Mer- rills, Hartford, Wednesday evening, was a success. Incidental to the show apples, flowers and grasses were exhibited. The dis play was almost wholly from Hartford and vicinity.
 The varieties shown by MT. Rodgers, of Milburn, N. J., were exceptionally fine. He has experimented in seedlings for years until at present he ranks high among the growers of the finer and richer qualities of the fruit His "Jewell" is from seedlings furnished by MT. Augur, of this State, and he has culti- vated the variety with rare skill. His "Gold, D "Augur's 65" and "Prinee of Berries" are, as yet, mere experiments and are not on the market He considers the s'Prince of Berries'' the finest favored and most shapely berry in existence.
 Ex-Governor Furness, of Nebraska, to whom MT. Augur sent few slips of the Jewell, has written back an unsolicited letter in which he says that for size, quality and quantity the berry cannot be beaten. He is secretary of the State board of agriculture and a competent judge. MT. Augur says that if the exhibition had been held week later it would have been a much better one.
 It was thought that the season would be earlier, but the past week two of cloudy weather and cool nights retarded the berry growth. The Jewell berry Mr. Augur plants in rows alternated with the Sharpless, which is bi-sexual while the Jewell is a pistillate. The yield by such arrangement is very large The market is always superior for the Jewell, which is every way profitable.
 Mr. J. B. Alcott, of Manchester, exhibited about thirty specimens of grasses
