what his rank was. On the first day in the

as Colonel" The Bishop informed him that

with apparently hand-embroidered silk

baby velvet ribbon. The silk is as soft

NATURAL INK.
Lord Rosebery Wrote for Some from
Alexander Stephens'
Farm.

One of the intimate friends of Alex
ander Il. Stephens, the vice president Of
the confederacy, has just shipped to
England gallon of natural ink, prod
uct of Georgia soil, to the address Of
Lord Rosebery, the distinguished poll
tician who once held the reins Of the
British government. This little Incl
dent eliminates peculiar and interest
Ing story. Some twenty years ago,
when Stephens was in his prime, Lord
Rosebery visited the United States.
The two men met, and in few weeks
were on an intimate footing. Mr.. Ste
phens had genial manner, splendid
intellect and brilliant conversational
abilities Lord Rosebery was much at
tached to him, and they spent much
time together. Toward the end of the
Englishman's stay ne accepted the in
Ntation Of Mr.. Stephens and came for
few weeks to the patriarchal home
stead near this town. Charlottesville
was then in It's swaddling clothes, and
fine specimen of the quiet American
country town. Lord Rosebery was
charmed with the hospitality of the
people and the many quaint characters
be found here, and declared he had
spent one of the pleasantest times in
the history of his life. Among other in
teresting things which Stephens
showed him was some natural ink,
which flows from a peculiar spring at
the base of Kenesaw mountain, near
Marietta, Ga, and which he used for
sll purposes of record and correspond
ence.
The liquid was q little heavier than
the manufactured article, but left per-
manent stain, which made it valuable
agent where documents were to be pre-
served. Lord Rosebery finally returned
home, and kept up q constant CORE
spondence with Mr.. Stephens until the
latter's death, A few days since the
heirs of the former vice-president re-
ceived letter from the ex-premier ask
ing that some of the ink be bottled and
sent him, as he wished to exhibit it to
his friends, and adopt it for his per-
sonal use, if practicable. His request
was complied with, and the ink will
arrive in England, and be shown around
as O natural freak from America.-St.
