Jefferson's Story OF the Nomination.
from the Boston JourDal,7

From the Boston Journal
Speaking of the Clevelands reminds
one of the story which Crane, the actor,
told Of the receipt of the news of the
nomination at Gray Gables. Crane
chanced to be speaking of great stage
effects and of the proneness which an
old actor had to see the dramatic side
of everything that "Joe" Jefferson had
told him, and he related the following
indident:
"Cleveland, in company with Jefer-
son and Billy Russell, sat in the study
at Gray Gables awaiting the result of
the convention. There was large
window in the room, and desk was
near it. Cleveland sat- at that desk
facing the window, the shade of which
was up all night. Jefferson sat at one
side and Russell at the other. All
night Cleveland was as calm as his
companions were anxious. The only
other occupant was Charlie Jefferson,
who sat at the other side of the room.
Il tell you,' said Jefferson, relating the
scene, it was impressive to see that big
man sitting there like statue and all
his ambition at stake. It was o'clock
when the news came that the nomina-
ton had been made by reclamation. I
leaned forward on one side of the table
and Russell on the other, and just as
we shook hands the first ray of sun,
rising out of the sea, fell full on Mr..
Cleveland's fsce. I have never been
more moved, more impressed than 1
was as 1 looked at the sun-lighted face
of that man of destiny. No dramatic
climax ever so stirred me. I cannot
