An Interesting Letter Hearing on Recent

BALTIMORE. February lO.-The Balti
more Sun OF Wednesday will publish th6
following special dispatch from il.
| Washington correspondent:
4 recent New York dispatch which
! has been widely circulated sets forth at
some length that Gov. Ilill'S conclusion
| TO come to the Senate was because Of Il
letter written by Henry Watterson. a.
the request Of Democratic Senatorial
caucus. The contents of tie letter are
assumed to be given:
COURIER JOURNAL OFFICE,
LOUISVILLE, Ky, Nov. ., 1880.
Ny DEAR SE-l take leave TO ad-
dress yon this letter, a. one OF the mil
lions OF Democrats VINO have never
sought or held Office, and one who could
not be induced To do 50, but who are
decplv concerned in the party welfare
and who believe you to hold the key TO
it. Outside of the State Of New York,
there is well-nigh unanimous demand
among the rank and file Of Demo
Gratis for the nomination OF Mr..
Cleveland. This is too strong for
the party leaders and managers 10
resist. | think | have some in
nuence in Kentucky. But on that point
should be overwhelmed in State con-
vention. II you should come to a Ma
tional convention with New York del
egation solid against il, you would be
overwhelmed. You are pOwerleSs to
prevent II. But you can defeat the cleo
tion Of the ticket.
There are Democrats in every part
Of the Union vino believe that you did
this in lsss. | know that TO be- false.
know exactly what happened and l
have stealily defended you in public
and in private. But it will
cling TO you as loug as
YOU live-cvcn as the bargain, in
triguc and corruption story clung TO
Clay-and will meet you IN every Ma
tional Convention il il be not diSsipated
by some act on your part great enough
to blot it out. In default OF this, II you
have any hope Of the Presidency 1t will
defeat that.
My Judgment is clear that if you
could reconcile it with your Judgment
and failing to make peace with Mr..
Cleveland, and to take Il delegation to
the National Convention in lS92 TO put
him ia nomination, yusi will save the
party and place yourself upon an eleya-
zion yOu can never attain II you
fail TO do ii. You would be
received by the country with enthuSi-
asm: be accepted at once as Warwick,
and | do not see how you could be kept
out of succession. Ga the other hand,
even if YOU succeed IN defeating the
of Mr.. Cleveland, you will
stand upon sinister aud dangerous
grounds, with a stormy future before
Won. These are words, and have
relations with you which give me a
right to offer you counsel. They may
be disagreeablc words, and l have no
desire to obtrude upon your privacy, !
but they are true words. and !
claim the rights Of a Democrat, !
who has some knowledge OF
the country at large, and has
given some proof of intelligent devotion
to the party interests to ignore ceremo-
ny and to send them to you.
In conclusion, let me say that ! shall, |
many event, be glad to know you better.
and that meanwhile. | am,
Most sincerely, your friend.

An yet there may be undertow q keepin' of

An yet his legs set tangled in the treaeh'rous

He may be always workin' with the patientist

An yet go unrewarded, an, my friends, how

What heights he might a climbed up to but

Chuckling nonchalently, the hoary
scoundrel tossed the brand afie1d. The
young men lent their weight to one end
of the rope and the doomed Skinner, with
awful strangling noises which no pen can
picture, rose up with the other. The UNI
bound arms reached up and clutched
frantically at the rope, but at the best
the struggling man could only prolong
his own torture. His executioners stood
unmoved beside the writhing body which
sometimes brushed against them and
sometimes fiercely buffeted them. They
waited for his death as one waits for the
death of a dog which he has shot. 1t
was long coming, but it came at last,a land
the body of this wolf in human shape
hung limp and CHASTITY, with black face
and protruding tongue, hidden only
by the black cap of night-kindly
night. Then they fastened the slack of
the rope to the trunk of the tree.
And then from the old mans chamber
there came cry of love and anguish so
keen, so sad, so desolate tnat these flinty
hearted men began to quake and, gather
ing up their arms, with many a back
ward glance, they SUNK into the forest.

faced the world alone with all his dread
full load of degradation.

recruits were captured and Crosby was
among them. They were marched over
to the old stone Presbyterian church,
which still stands in Fishkill Village and
there he was confined in irons while the
Committee of Safety came over to try
him. They saw to it that the shackles
were very loose, and that night the spy
crept out through window shaded by a
willow tree and was off with dozen bull
let's fired at random after him.
OF course such things as these strength
ened the spy in the affections of Gen Clin-
toni when the man who was known
among the Americans as the ''devil spy
had miraculously broken bonds half
dozen times, the matter began to look
suspicious. It was brittle path that
Crosby trod, but the bold spirit never
wavered In his breast was rumpled
bit of paper bearing the magic name of
Washington, and it warmed the oft Or
tured heart of the outcast, this Ishmael
of the Neutral Ground, against whom
every hand and tongue was pointed.
When he was an hungered, it was bread
and meat to him, and when he slept
among the rocks of the Westminster
highlands, it feathered his granite pillow.
1t was the second bit of paper that Wash
ington had given him, for once, when he
was taken by half drunken band of
horsemen, who in their alcoholic fervor
started to deal out summary justice upon
him, he remembered what John Jay had
said to him and swallowed the evidence
of his faithfulness, lest it should lead to
the injury of some friend of Washington.
But there were other and very danger
Gus enemies on the track of Enoch Cros-
by. Those bloodhounds of the woods
the cowboys and the SINNERS, were
watching him in secret 1t was reputeo
that he was making good store of money
as peddler, for few men in that day haC
access from the country to the city stores
and Enoch was shrewd at trade. Bui
more than this men reckoned, and The
bandits among the number, that the maj
who was selling information to Sir Hen
ry Clinton must be we'll lined with Brit
ish gold. And so the jackals of the for
est followed close upon his footsteps
They were by far the most dangerous o
all his enemies, for they were as secret il
their ways as he himself and knew tn
hidden paths of the forest.

Us farmers in the country, as the seasons go
and come,
Is purity much like other folks,-we're apt
to grumble some!
The Springs too back ard tor us, or too for
ard,-ary one,-
Wen jaw about it anyhow, and have our way
none.
The thaw's set in too sudden; er the frosts
stayed in the soil
Too long to give the wheat a chance, and
crops is bound to spoil.
The weathers either most too mild, er too
outrageous rough,
And altogether too much rain, er not halt rain
enough.
Now what I'd like and what you'd like is
plane enough to see;
It's jest to have old Providence drop round on
you and me,
And ask us what our views is fust, regardin
shine and rain,
And post 'em when to shet her off, er let her
on again.
And yit I'd rather, after all-considerin' other
chores
I got on hand ,a-tendin' both to my affairs and
I'd ruther miss the blame I'd git, a rulin'

And spend my extry time in praise and graft

NO PENSIONER HE.

The war was ended, and the name of
the pages of our history. He who had
been rebel was now successful revO-
lutionist, and the world FASTENED to pay
tribute to his love of country which he
had kept unsulled throughout the long
and fratricidal strife.
There had come a time when Enoch
Crosby had drifted back into the ranks
of the Contnentals. At first, the troop
looked on him askance, but when they
found that the commanding officers re-
ceived him smilingly and that the price
upon his head was out of date, they began
to suspect that perhaps Enoch Crosby
was not SO black as he had been painted
But the war was ended and the Cont.
mental Congress met. The Committee Of
Safety, before disbanding, sent it me
mortal setting forth the great services OF
Enoch Crosby, of "secret service fame
and handsome sum was set apart fol
his reward-handsome considering the
poverty of the new nation. But wher
the money was offered to Enoch, the mar
drew back as if from leper's touch.
sit was not for gold that have serv
ed my country said the country shoe
maker, proudly.
But long years afterward, when thu
memories of the war were dim and thu
hatreds of the war forgotten, the old maj
would sometimes pause in the tapping o
a shoe and, pulling from his pocket
shrivelled piece of paper, would say to
favored customer: Here is something
better than all the gold of India" An'
the customer, reading, would find the fol
lowing:
circumstances of political importance
which involve the lives and fortunes ofmany
have hitherto kept secret what this paper nov
reveals. Enoch Crosby has for years been
faithful ard unrequited servant of his coul

him for his conduct.-[George Washington.
