MRS. CLEvELAND'S PONIES.
The Touching Letter Received by the
President from a Southerner.

The Touching Letter Received by the
President from Southerner.
(From the Philadelphia North American.)
The President has so far relented from
his original determination as to buy for
his wife a pretty phaeton, with q seat
behind for the groom, and pair OF
small brown horses for her exclusive use,
and thereby hangs tale. A man in
Richmond wrote pathetic letter to the
President not long ago, which, by some
inadvertence on the part of the wise
'sprivate secretary" fell into his own
hands. In it the man went on to say
that he had married a young and beauti-
full girl three months before, and had
bought for her, with many fond antici-
pations, pair of horses. for which he
had searched the South over, and she
drove them for few short weeks, and
then, on returning from drive one
afternoon, died suddenly in his arms
from heart disease, He could not bear
to see these reminders of happy past
any more, and Mrs. Cleveland was the
onl woman into whose hands he was
wiling to have them fall. He concluded
by saying that he was too poor to give
them to her, but he wanted her to have
these treasures of his pretty, dead wife.
The President, without having seen
the horses at all, telegraphed to have
them sent on, and in letter following
inclosed a check for them. They came,
saw and conquered at once, as they are
pretty, gentle little animals, and smiling
peace reigns everywhere.
