Occasionally a man is to bo seen nt ouo of tho fa mous Now York clubs who, a quarter of a cent ury ntro. w a much in tho pub- clakknck bkwaixd. iio oyo, aud who did good sorvico for tho country as acting secretary of state. On Wall street aud in its vicinity this man is often soon, for ho is a conspicuous ob ject by reason of whlto and long, flowing tnastachlos, which aro so heavy that in tho distance thoy seem to bo, in fact, a full beard. This is Mr. Clarenco 80 ward, who is still by many supposed to bo tho sou of Lincoln's secretary of stato, William II. Soward, but who is in fact tho nephew of that great statesman. When Will iam II. Howard accepted the office of secretary of stato under Lincoln ho se lected his own son Frederick, a most amiable nnd talented man, for his chief assistant, and it is one of tho open se crets of tho stato department that the hard and drudging work was dono by Frederick, while his father dovoted his time mainly to important questions Frederick Soward was badly and al most mortally wounded by tho assassin Payno when ho undertook to carry out his part of tho plot and to murder Secre tary Seward. The wound which tho secretary received, though painful, would not havo incapacitated himgaeatly had it not been inflicted when he was ill; but the knife thrust which tho as sassin delivered to Frederick nearly cost tho son his life, nnd tho statu department was practically loft without a head. In this emergency Clarenco Seward, who was then a young and somewhat inex perienced man, was actually called upon to conduct tho stato department, and ho did it with great ability, so that in a few weeks ho had attained a fnmo such would bo most valuable to any young lawyer. Tho papers wero full of de scriptions of him, nnd spoko most kindly or ins ueiicato undertaking. When his undo returned to the state department Clarence took his former place, and subsequently returned to New York, whero ho was received into a iaw firm of which Samuel Dlatchford, who is now a justice of tho supreme court, was the head. Tho business which came to this firm was remunerative aud im perious in its demands upon tho time of the counsel, so that Clarence Seward, though often besought to enter politics. declined to do so. He is now at tho head of a Arm of lawyers which stands in t" very front rank at the New York bar. Tho career of Mr. Mauley, whom every ono who knows htm calls Joe, Is very likely still in tho future. At present ho is less talked about than ho was sotno ton years ago, when ho sud denly attained great prominence, be cause it was believed that upon his broad shoulders Mr. Dlaino facod tho political responsibilities he had so long carried as chairman of the Republican committee in the state of Maine, and into his sympa- to uhed upon his chiton friend was suffi cient to mnko Mr. Manloy n man of con sequence With a genial manner and a cordial disposition, even toward his polit ical enemies, Mr. Manloy was known to bo ono of tho most secrotlvo of inon, aud ho possessed to a great degreo tho art of concealing thought by languago. He worked with tremendous energy when Mr. Maine was tho candidate for tho presidency, and with tho failure of that canvass ho realized that hlHofliclal duties would bo, for a time, at an end. For tho four years during which Mr. Cleveland was president Mr. Manloy was quiet, so that ho was almost forgot ten) but with tho return of Mr. Dlaino to tiowor as tho head of tho cabinet Mr. Manloy again becamo tho chief man of tho Republican party in Maine, so far as Its machinery aud organization aro con cerned. It is behoved that ho hopes some day to represent Malno in tho United States sonato. . Although J. Hippie Mitchell Is now a member of tho sonato aud is serving his third term, yet lie seems by no means so con spicuous as ho was when ho was first a member of that body.

He turned up in tho state of Oregon moro than twenty years ago, with nothing but enorgy and intellect to rely upon for gutting on in thu world, but ho was an nggresslvo man, a good lawyer, and In tho political and business complications which nroso In tlmt stato ho allied him self to tho winning side, aud whllo still a young man found himself n sot' "or of tho United States. During his first term in tho senate Mr. Mitchell was agiircssivo, and attracted sorno attention becauso of his abilities as a speaker. Ho was looked upon also as ono of tho coming men of the north west Political mlsfortuno followed, howover, nnd nt tho end of his term ho was succeeded by a Democrat, and Kiany thought his day of prosperity was over. Mitchell, howover, Is not 11 man to give up as long as hu has health, and he wa chosen by sotno of tho most Important railway interests of tho northwest to reprcsont thuin In Washington. It was a fortunate misfortuno for him when he was beaten for tho sonato, for this con nection made tho foundation for his fort une Tho tido turned afterward, and he was ro-olected, nnd has recontiy been chosen for a third term. Mr. Mitchell in his lato years in tho senate has been quiet, being far more interested in finan cial problems than in pure politiqa, Some ton years or moro ago there appeared in Washington, as a repre sentative from Illinois, a bright and brainy young mmMlMf mmmmmm TIik (:hiiiiloti l.niy Ilny.

Whether Mr. Mauley had political ambi tion or not is something that his nearest friuids havo al w a y been in doubt about. He did have the ambition successfully to direct the management of his party in the state of Maine, but he seemed con tent himself with tin comparatively humble office of postmaster of Augusta, although had ho aspired to higher posts of trust In Washington or elsewhere no one doubts he could have been gratified. Mr. Manloy came conspicuously into notice about ten years ago, although be fore that time his name and face were familiar to all tho politicians in tho state of Maine. He it was who was regarded at Mr. Blaine's next friend and personal representative, and the reflected luster which so great a man as Blaine wan able lawyer, who was in some respects tho ablest of the representatives from tho Missis sippi valley. Ho was au impetu ous nnd brilliant sneaker, n verv. hard worker, a genial companion and n devoted party man. This was Mr. John R. Thomas, and as ho remained in congress for two or throe tortus ho grew steadily, so that very many thought ho would reach tho sonato some day, and might probably asplro to somethlmr higher. Although ho was from th west, Mr. Thomas took a great Interest in uaval affairs, aud becamo ono of tho most efficient members of tho naval com mittee. To his enorgy is duo much of tho enthusiasm for a now and competent navy which has resulted in tho govern ment's undertaking to build ono com tnensurnto with our position among tho powers of tho earth. In tho heyday of his famo Mr. Thomas gave up bis congressional career, and was seen no more in public llfo. It was said that he found political honors too costly, and that ho could not nfford to give tho best years of his life to tho gov ernment for the salary which lie was re ceiving. He undertook to build a fort une, or at least a competency, and when some of his old companions in congress Baw him a few years ago they said ho was succeeding well; but by tho public at largo he has been entirely forgotten.
