 From the Richmond Dspatoh.l
 Colonel George w. Alexander died in Laurel, Md, last week of paralysis. He was one of the most conspicuous, nota- ble men in Richmond during the war. A sketch of his life will doubtless be interesting to all, but especially to the comparatively few of our citizens who were here during that time and knew him.
 He was born at Francesville, Pa, and was sixty-six years of age. On Octo- Der 31st, 1S4S he was appointed assist ant engineer in the United States navy and remained until April 9th, 1861, when he resigned During that time he was stationed for a long time at the Ports- mouth navy yard, and in that city he married a Virginia lady, Miss Susie Ashby, who survives him. On the 18th of June, 1861, he became a lieutenant of Marylanders who, with great difficult ty, made their way to Richmond and offered their services to Governor Letcher for the Confederacy.
 Captain Alexander became a conspic- uous man in Richmond the day he put his foot in the city. The knowledge which the people had of the recent ex- ploit in which he had taken part had made him so. Everybody had heard of the capture of the St. Nicholas, which, as it was on its way from Washington to Norfolk, laden with valuable conn modities, was entered by Colonel Ear vona Thomas, Captain Alexander and a picked set of men all in disguise, as some of them in women's apparel. At a concerted moment the party threw off their disguise, captured the officers and crew, and brought the vessel to Fredericksburg, where it's con- tents were sold, and realized some time ten thousand dollars in gold. Everybody recollected, too, that a short time afterward Captain Alexan- der was captured by the Federal forces in Maryland and incarcerated In Fort

Views and Things by the Way in California;
 Pasadena, California, May 10.
 Tn this country we seem somehow to lose account of the seasons; when we look up and see a heap of snow on the top of great mountain showing up ,n striking contrast to the clear blue of the sky, then we say this winter" but when in taking step backwards we collide with a rose bush as big as hay stack which is covered with at least a hundred thousand beautiful blossoms, then we think that perhaps we meant to say "this summer" but as we stop to think we know it can not be summer, for the rains have not yet ceased, and so we say Hast fall," and let 1t go at that
 It is in truth confusing, when perhaps the hottest day of the whole year may happen in January, and the most de- lightful weather of the entire season, clear, cool and beautiful, is likely to be in August. Thes and other copies of the "glorious climate" are liable to somewhat daze the new corners and cause them to lose their bearings as In the case of the youth lately arrived from Boston, who in a fit of homesick- ness got up before day on purpose to look back towards his former home, and earnestly and longingly gazed in the direction he supposed was east, till the rising sun made a blister on the back of his neck. But when "La Fies- ta de los Angeles" comes around then we know where we are, and need a knotted stick OF almanac no longer, for we are sure of the times and the seasons; that it is fitting time for the tourists and sojourners, and for those who go north, or south, or east, or west, never suspecting or believing if told, how much they lose by so hasty a de- parture.
 All the same none go before the Fies- ta, at least none who can possibly stay. and throngs come from every point of the compass, from close by and from the rim of the horizon, taxing the trans portation systems beyond all calcula- tion
 It is a good thing that these sight seers come well supplied with patience, for those who have in charge the con- of so many appear to lose their reckoning, and seem, as well as their vehicles, to be buried and swamp ed beyond recovery, while even the great Chicago Limited Express" com monly called the "Overland", becomes unlimited beth as to speed and capac- ity, and looks like a travelling ant hill as it proceeds at little more than foot pace.

COMPENSATED E1LANCIPATION,
 Anything authentic that adds to the stock of knowledge concerning Abra- ham Lincoln's words and deeds is al- ways welcome and interesting. Colonel Mcclure, of the Philadelphia Times, re- turns to the subject of President Lin colns attitude on the subject of com pensated emancipation at the Hampton Roads conference, where Mr. Lincoln and MT. Seward met MT. Stephens MT. Hunter and MT. Campbell, who had been appointed by Jefferson Davis as peace commissioners. Colonel Watterson, of the Louisville Courier-Journal, stated in a recent lecture that at the confer ence President Lincoln presented a blank paper to MT. Stephens, saying: Write Union on one side and what you please on the other" and added that Lincoln had in hand the proposition to pay $4O0, 100000 as compensation for the slaves of the. South, if war could thus be ended and the Union fully restored. There has been some controversy over these statements, especially the latter of the two, which is the one in which Colonel Mcclure is chiefly interested. He gives his personal testimony as fol- lows: MT. Lincoln favored compensated emancipation from the beginning of the
 
 war down to the 9th of February, 1865, and he believed in 1t no less thereafter until the day he died, but he did not press it upon congress or upon the coun- try. He exhibited to the writer hereof In August, 1864, written proposition for the payment of $4OO OOO0,oOO to the South as compensation for slaves if 1t would end the war and restore the atl- thority of the Union throughout the en- tire country. He favored it not only be- cause he believed that it would save more than $4O0,OOO,OOO of expenditure, but also because he believed it would bring the South back to the Union in much more friendly relations to the gov- ernment than they could be returned by the sword. He believed also that in no other way could the southern armies be returned to peaceful pursuits and the South saved from anarchy after the military power of the confederacy had been broken.
 This is reliable testimony concerning a matter which has been much discuss ed. Of course it is futile at this time to talk about what might have happen ed if Lincoln's idea had been carried l out. It could not be carried out, and it was not much favored either in the l North or the South.
