one hundred and fifty miles above this
city, exploded her boilers with fright

A number OF the 5 we'd were more

L. T. Mason, Secretary OF State for
Louisiana, who, with his wife, was a
passenger on the Corona, having got
aboard at Baton Rouge, fourteen
miles from the scene of the accident,
states that he was in the cabin talk

widow of Congressman Robertson,
at the time The explosion occurred.
He Immediately secured life preserv-
Prs and succeeded IN saving Mrs.
Robertson and another lady. There
was very little time for preparation,
as the boat went down like lead "a
few minutes after the explosion. The
steamer City Of 81. Louis was coming
down the river and was hniled. She
rounded to and took on board the
passengers and crew who were not
lost in the river and kindly cared for
both the injured and the saved.
Mrs. T.. w. Robertson says she
was wedged in the ladies' cabin as a
result of the explosion, some of the
debris lying across her lower limbs,
but was suddenly released and found
herself floating in the river. She
sank twice, but was luckily picked
up, escaping with a few painful
bruises.

I knew an actor, and some- times manager, by the name of Dc Walden, then part of the old Wallack company, who had some money, and managed to get him interested. He took Niblo's saloon, now the dining. room of the Metropolitan hotel, for one night, with the privilege of six. The first night, with the help of the press, who were all friends of Arte- mus, was a triumph, and he ran the week, clearing for himself and his manager s4,200. From that time his featuring was a grand success, and, while Artemus was more than liberal, he saved money, or, rather, he made 1t 90 fast that he could not help its accu- mulating In his hands. He died worth almost hundred thousand dollars, of which he left the income to his aged mother, and, after her death, to found an asylum for old and disabled print CTS, to which craft he originally be- longed.

J. W. Watson, in North American Review.
 Artemus Ward was undoubtedly the greatest humorist America has yet produced. He was genial and com. panionable, but not great conversa- tionalist, nor did he scatter the scin- tillations of his wit and humor broad cast, but, on the contrary, was modest and reticent in company, and only once in & while set the table in roar with some dry joke, at which he never laughed himself. Tn fact, Artemus could not make an of. hand speech al all, and even the simplest responses had to be written out and committed to memory.
 It may be interesting to know how the great humorist came to take to the lecture platform, when, before his great success in that line, he had con- fined himself exclusively to the pen and, as 1 had finger in the pie, I will relate it. About thirty years ago there was a paper published in this city by several brothers named Stephens, called Vdnity Fair, having for con- tributors such men as Thackeray, Fitz- James O'Brien, George Arnold, Henry Stanley, and, in fact, all the literary talent of the country, with editors such as Charles G. Leland, Henry Clapp and Frank Wood; and yet il was plain that the public did not want it, and 1t was about to give up the ghost, when the publishers con- suited me as to what they should do My advice was to get an editor who was we'll known for his comic procliv- ities, and advertise him as connected with the paper, and 1 declared that there were only two men in the whole country who filled the bill-John c Sake and Artemus Ward, whose real name I did not then know. knew that Sake could not be had, as he was a candidate for governor of Vermont therefore the publishers empowered me to correspond with Artemus and offer him thirty dollars per week and travelling expenses to come to New York as the new editor. The response was immediate acceptance, and twenty five dollars and two weeks salary was forwarded-he afterwards told me the offer was a godsend, as he was getting but ten dollars & week on the Cleve- land Pldindedier, as reporter-snd ir a few days Browne arrived in New York and assumed the chair. The paper languished on for few months and then went the way of all funny papers.
 One day, when this had happened, was walking up Broadway and regret ting the result, for I had become very much attached to Browne. He was talking about going back to Cleveland and resuming his old position, when suggested to him that he try featuring At this he laughed, declaring himself totally unfit, not being able to speak in public at all, and having no subject I insisted, and gave him, as a subject "Ghosts," New York at the time being very much exercised over a foolish humbug got up in the newspaper and called "The Twenty seventh Street Ghost" Before we parted, Ar. temus had promised to write such q lecture and to meet knot of literary and artist friends the next evening ai Pfaff7s, on Broadway, near Bleeckel street, 6 noted restaurant and rcsor, of Bohemians, and read what he had written.
