NEAR HoLLADAY's, !
SPoTsYLvANIA Co., VA,
April, 1886.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Sir,-I am indebted to the Hon.
Robert W. Hughes for copy of the
weekly issue Of your paper for April
23d, and to other friends in Richmond
for more recent issues Of your daily
paper containing each Judge Hughes's
article upon the breeding Of the thor
oughbred (?) trotting-horse Of the future
in Virginia.
If the virginians of to-day in their
tastes and instincts are like those Of
lang syne, Judge Hughes should
supplement his most entertaining article
and tell US first how to "catch our
flea "-i. c., instruct US how to breed
the Virginian who would con dmore
become the breeder of a class Of ami
mails who require to be driven in har.
ness in order to make race-horses. |
am aware there are few Virginians
who profess to be admirers Of the trot.
ter as q race-horse; but as q rule these
gentlemen are the descendants Of those
who had never love for or interest in
the old Virginia hard-bottomed, long
distanced, weight-carrying, thorough
bred tuIf-horse for so I must call him
il the trotter is to be called q race
horse. In other days when Virginians
started out to attend the various race
meetings, South or North, what with
their thoroughbreds, trainers, riders, bag
gage and feed-wagons, stable lads, etc.,
upon meeting them one would be
apt to fancy third part Of the State
was on the move. All this has now
changed, and when at the gate of some
little county Playground one meets two
or three sulky-straddlers, with their
animals generally bred q in other
States, and with their plumber strapped
about them, as the writer has seen them,
be feels like crying out, " Here are the
monkeys; wonder how far the circus
and show is behind?"
When the late Robert Stockton, NJ.
c., had charge Of the Whitehall gold
mine in this county from which, by the
way. he took over sixty thousand dollars
in about three months), he was the owner
of Trustee (by Cotton, a horse he had
recently imported from England, aud |

Leger winner. The late Hon. John
Minor Bolts and Commodore Stockton
were warm personal friends, and this
induced MIR. Bolts to breed to his
friends horse Trustee the Sir Charles
mare Rosalie Somers, and the great
four-mile race-hore and sire Revenue
was the result. From the first this
colt became tho idol Of its owner, who
was wont to say "Thers is but one
Virginia, there was but one George
Washington, there is but one Revenue |"
Surely could Mr.. Bolts have forsssen
that Revenue, through his descend
ants, would ever become the pro.

advised of the exact date on which
Pr sident Cleveland will marry the
charming Miss Folsom. Contemporary
with these social honors Mr.. Bissell
has just been elected president
of the Delta Kappa Epsilon, CON-
posed of graduates Of Yale. lie was
afterward banquetted by admiring
friends nor stop his blushing honors
here: The preference shown to Mr..
Bissell by the President in selecting
him to be "best man" at his marriage
has much to do vita reviving the report
that in the event Of the resignation oil
Daniel Manning the Secretaryship of
the Treasury will be given to the bulky
BufIaloDian whose portrait adorns this
article. People in Buffalo who are well
informed about such matters say that
Mr.. Bissell can have the office if he
wants it. and point to the fact that just
before President Cleveland announced
his Cabinet selections over year ago
the place was rendered to Mr.. Bissell.
The only condition then placed upon
the offer was that a boom should be
worked up for him in order to bring
him more prominently before the pub.
lie. MIR. Bissell decided that the Pre-
sident might be embarrassed, and that
it would be poor policy for him to ac-
cept the place. The prospect is differ
ent now that Mr.. Bissell is a we'll
known man, and that his capacity for
affairs is publicly recognized.
Wilson Shannon Bissell was born in
Rome, Oneida county, New York, De-
cember 81, lS47. In 1853 the family
removed to Buffalo, where they have
since resided. Wilson, who was
bright and promising lad, attended the
public schools Of Buffalo--for two years
in one where German was the language
spoken. Having made rapid progress
and evidencing superior aptitude for
study. he was afterwards sent to Hop
kin's Grammar School. at New Haven,
Conn.,, where be took two years
course. lie subsequently entered Yale
College, where he remained four years,
and from which institution he graduated
with honors in 1869.
Mr.. Bissell began the study Of law in
the same year Of his graduation, read
ing in the Office Of firm Of lawyers
doing business in Buffalo. In Septem-
Der, 1872, ne formed partnership with
Lyman X. Bass, and on January l,
1874, Grover Cleveland became a men,
Der Of the firm, which was then known
as Bass, Cleveland Il Bissell. Mr..
Bass withdrew. but the other parties
retained their association until Mr..
Cleveland went to Albany to assume
the office of Governor Of New York
State. Upon the retirement OF Mr..
Cleveland the firm was again reorgan-
lied. Mr.. Bissell acts as counsel ex-
clusively, never taking part in the trial
of causes. The firm is one Of the best
known in Buffalo, and does large
business for corporations, as we'll as in
perhaps less remunerative practice.
MIR. Bissell is unmarried. He is a
member Of both the City and Buffalo
Clubs. 1t is generally understood that
he is President Cleveland's most init
mate friend. Their closeness Of ASSOC
citation dates back to the period when
their interests we're Unidentified in part
peJship.
