LINCOLN AND STEPHENS.
Story of Vice President of the Com
federacy and the Civil War
President.

Gen. Horace Porter, in his Cam.
paigning with Grant," tells story of
the meeting at City Point between
Alexander II. Stephens, vice president
of the confederate states, and other
southern commissioners, and Pres
ident Lincoln and Secretary Seward to
discuss preliminaries of peace. Many
officers, including Gen. Grant and Gen
Porter, were in attendance on this
meeting.
Vice President Stephens was a sa'.
low, understood man, whose skin
seemed shriveled on his bones. One
of the officers said of him, at the end
of an interviews: 'The Lord seems to
have robbed that mans body of all it's
flesh and blood to make brains of
them"
On his arrival, Mr.. Stephens, says
Gen. Porter, was wrapped from his
eyes to his heels in coarse gray over
coat about three sizes too large for
him, with a collar so high that it
threatened to lift his hat off every
time he leaned his head back
1He COdt, together WITH MS cOn-
pleXion, which was as yellow as ripe
ear of corn, gave rise to characterize
ton by Mr.. Lincoln which was very
amusing. The next time Mr.. Lincoln
saw Gen. Grant at City Point, after
the conference, he said to him:
Grant, did you notice Stephens
coat?"
"Oh, yes" answered the general
"Well," continued Mr.. Lincoln, "soon
after we assembled on the steamer q t
Hampton Roads, the cabin began to get
pretty warm, and Stephens stood up
and pulled off his big coat. He pulled
it off just about as you would husk
an ear of corn. 1 couldn't help think
ing, as l looked first at the coat and
then at the man:
well, if that isn't the biggest shuck
and the littlest nubbin / ever did see!"

on Pennsylvania avenue that Lincoln's
birthday saw the president pass along
with little injured girl in his arms.
A short walk and they reached the
house, where Madge's father, steady
ing himself on crutches, met them at
the door.
"Your little girl has been injured;
show me bed and I'll place her on
it," Lincoln said.
A doctor was called and soon Madge
opened her eyes and said:
papa, the president"
Eyes, dear, the president is here and
only waits to know you're all right,
before leaving"
Lincoln bent over the bed and plac-
ing one arm around little Madge said:
''Won't you give the president kiss
before he goes?"
Madge raised her head and Lincoln,
lover of all children. kissed her and
said: "Good-by, little one, I shall look
for you when 1 pass down Pennsyi-
| vania avenue again"
Many times after Madge was well
| the president passed and gave her a

had been shot, and when the story of

At dinner in Boston a former
resident of Springfield, ILL.,, told a
story of Lincoln, which is sufficient
ly characteristic of the man, as the
country remembers him, to be unlike

questions, and I had to tell him all
knew of this fire brigade and it's
members. Then he said: We'll, I'll
tell you what I'll do. I'll go home to
supper-Mrs. Lincoln is generally
good-natured after supper-a.nd then
I'll tell ner I've been thinking of Civ

For the next half hour she was kept

For the next half hour she was kept
busy, as all the clerks and messengers
needed waiting on. Then there came
little rest and Madge looked mp and
down the long avenue.
AS she looked up a second time she
caught sight of a tall form coming
her way. Madge knew it well, for no
other man in Washington walked like
Lincoln.
She kept her eyes fastened on him Is
he drew nearer, so as to have lots to
tell her father when she returned
home.
Her little heart was beating with
excitement "Oh! If he would only
stop, just for. a minute, so l could
speak to him. He looks 50 sad. 1 Won
der why"
Just then boy stopped to buy an
apple. He gave her a ten-cent piece
and Madge did not have pennies
enough to make change.
"Wait minute, please, and I'll get
it," she said, and started to run across
the street to the news stand for
change.
She had only covered half the dis
lance when a team of carriage horses
swung around the corner.
Too late the coachman saw her.
There was little scream, two horses
jerked back on their launches and
Madge lay on the pavement, uncon-
scious, with one little arm broken.
Men rushed to pick her up; but one
tall form was ahead of them all. Lin
coin, with all the tenderness in his
great heart aroused, stopped and
picked the little form up in his arms.
"Where does she live?" he asked, and
a man standing at his side, with
Madge's basket in his hand, volun-
teered to show the way to her home.
Lincoln could have called an athbu-
lance or sent her home in a carriage,
but that was not this great mans way.
Where help was needed he gave it him
self, and so it was that those who were
