A Man Who Was Never Discour
aged. George Alfred Towuaend.
lieiii( iu Waahington Lmt Friday sight, 1
paused lien, hermm e residence about 11
o'clock, and seeing a light in the basement, a
connection of the general said to me, "Let us
go in and have a few words with the old chief."
Knteriug a hall we were soon before Sherman,
ho had juat como back from the theatre and
was writing private letters, according to Lis
wont at night. lie had a dry cigar and wore
an old bloute, and wheeled around saying
"Hello I" at once. Said I:
"General, I have just been up in that par
of the Miami valley and in the Wabash valley
where Tecutnseh, for whom you a: named
nenrail."
"Yen, I was named for Tecumseb," said Gen.
Hhermau: "my father always had an admira
tion fur some comprehensive Indians, men na
tive to the country where his children wore
bom, and T.-cuuifeh was perhaps the rnowt
celebrated c f them alL His precursor, Pontiac,
had pusseil away before any large number of
Americans were settled in the west. Tecum
sch's idea of uniting all the Indians, without
regard to their past ditiputea on wars, to hold
their common country against the Anglo-Saxon,
made him seem lo my ' father, I suppose, a
patriot and a union man. !o he had thought
of naming previous children Tecumnoh, but
the thing being deferred the name fell on nift.
.Tecumseb. had been dead when I was bora
about six or even years. "
"How came it, general, that you predicted
the number of meu that would be wanted so
early, indeed the earliest?"
"Well, I disapproved at a very early period in
the war of the optimistic, the flippant, light
view I saw everybody entertaining when I
had come right out of a section all bristling
with aims and frenzied for battle. They put
General Cameron in tiio war department, and
he came out to Kentucky in tho fall of ISO' and
had a talk with me at tho Gait house. You seo
my brother, John Kherinan, was a politician,
and held a conspicuous party lank at Wash
ington, so Cameron talked to uio courteously.
I told Cameron that the north waa not awakoat
all to the work before them; that we ought to
have bixty thousand men iu Kentucky, and
that two hundred thousand meu "would
liavo to be filled for very hoou. Cameron bo
came excited and said: 'Where are we to get
200,0)0 meu from? My God!' 'Why,' said I,
'yon can at least Mop playing politics and let
tho youn men who want to come forward and
ciiliit keep c.'imiug; instead of that the politic
ians at Washington are discouraging themaud
trying to make the country believe that this
war is going to blow over in a'little while. I
thiuk it was geuervlly regarded as an excited
man in those d.ivs " '
"General," aid I. abruptly changing the sub
ject, "were you not pretty hard on the war
corrcHpondeutn in Georgia and Tennessee?"
"Yes, I was," Khormau said bluntly. "There
were several writers in my army whose sen
sibilities were very acute "to our own imper
fections, aud they so reported and printed,
white at the same time drawing pictures of the
nemv's strength, organization and superior
ity. It was having a bad effect on my soldiers,
who were themselves becoming iuquisitive.
skeptical and picking things to pieces. I would
have nothing of that kind around me if I could
help it. I did not believe that we wanted any
more public opinion at that time to help the
war on, since we had embarked in it, and what
was then required was di.'ipliiie, unity and
real war."
"So you consider. Gen. Shermau, that the
war had to be fought, not explained."
"Oh, ves. Rough as the handling Grant got
in the Wilderness was, it was necessary to rub
up against the enemy and stagger bi'm with
bloody blows, even though we received them
back harder. Fight, fight, light, was the work
before us. We fooled with the country too
much, making the people believe that they
could pull out of the war if they wanted to."
"Gen. Sherman, your march "to the aeacoaat
must always be a great poem in this country.
Did you hesitate about it?"
"No; I do not regard the mere march to the
sea," said Gen. Sherman, "as the great
feature of my movement. My march from
the sea to Joe Johnston was the great thing. '
You see, I had to go awav off on my right flank
to make the sea coast. But the necessity ap
parently, of getting supplies compelled me to
go all that distance and lose a certain amount
of time. If I had marched as I wanted to I
would have gone right straight from Middle
Georgia to Joe Johnston. He was the point I
was after."
"How came you to' take Gen. Hazen to atom
Fort McAllister?"
"Why, because I knew the troops he com
manded. They had been under my eye before
commanded" thorn, aud I knew they were as
govl men as that army could turn out"
"Well, general, when you had made the sea
coast and established your communication
thre, which was the way you did march?"
''Right straight for Joe Johnston. Of course
I had to take the roads that were laid down,
and so I apparently marched on Columbia, Si
C. , but that was of no consequence. I wanted
to lay my army alongside of Johnston."
"Have you ever been discouraged during
vour life," genoral?"
"No; I don't think I have." Sherman looked
down and tried to thiuk. "No," he said in a
moment, "I don't thick I have. There always
seemed another alternative, a brighter chance.
At tha beginning of the war, wheu I had been
getting my military school iu Louisiana in or
der and felt a good dual encouraged about it,
it was a little severe to have to let go aud move
somewhere else. But I always tried to see the
practical, the real situation. I did not get
dispirited, because I did not live in the
clouds."
Here somebody spoke up aud axked G6n.
Shei man to repeat what he had said a night
or two before about his topographical ten
dency. Oh." said Khermau. cutting the question a
little short, "everything in this world lies on
the ground. If yo'u have anything to do war
or otherwise get acquainted with your ground.
You tako up a map aud see two towns laid
down ou it. ion may If pretty sure that thero
is a road from ouo to the other if it isn't put
down. I lived in my msps a good deal during
the war, and where I was ignorant or me
country my intuitions were generally sound,
bocause thev were baed on a few common
sense mica"
Well, u w, geucnl, what did you know
about Cienrgia?" Baid 1.
"Why, ble.ts your soul, I had been all over
that couutry long beforo the war. When I was
still in the army.a young officer, lot of saddles
belonging to the army were lost in Georgia;
faddl's that had brcu usad or were to bo usod
for cavalry service in tho Florida war. I went
down tlu o' i-ih there to make an accounting to
the government, some investigation having
risen on that subject and it enabled mo to see
Georgia, which I afterwards marched through
I believe from my observation that we could
live on the eucmy for much of that march and
I might have done it, perhaps, without going
to the seacoat at all, though the. government
was afraid."
Said I. "Gen. Sherman. I find in Ohio consid
erable of a boom for John Logan for presi
dent of tho United States, because of his atti
tude on tho Fitz-John "Porter case.
"I do not wonder at it at all," said Sherman;
"chose westeru soldiors entertained a view
during much of the war that the Army of the
Potomac was more engaged in making a mili
tary hero of some kind than in finishing op
the enemy and going home. Naturally that
old opinion in the west breaks ont wheu a con
test like this is raised half a generation after
the war. The western soldier is a thorough
republic n and democrat Ha doe not cars
about twining great laurels around any man's
brow. The war to him was a matter of duty,
and he wanted to whip the enemy, restore the
authority of the government and go back and
Jet in his seed and plow his corn. Heuoa
ohn Logan only requires to represent that
feeling to a waken a Terr deep interest amoag
the western soldiery. You see the Army of to
Potomac for some time was quarreling among
its commanders, McDowell, Pope, MeClellau,
Hooker, Burnside. It looked to the plain
western volunteer like a struggle of Jealousv
of tuilitarr t actiona I don't wonder at all.
continued Sherman, "to find that the Porter
ease starts that excitment afresh."
"Well, general, what kind of commander
was John Logan?"
"First rate, first rate," said 1 Sharman, "as a
fighting man, a hearty man no coward nor
trimmerj Logan was very good. But my ob
jection to him during the war was the tamo
that I had to Frank Blair, in going to the rear

cians I would.have had no complaint to .maks
of them. That was why I gave neither of
them McPherson's arm v. I wonld not give
that sort of responsibility to men who were
political speech makers." f
"What was McPherson's genius in, Oen, Hber
man?" -dtitO
"Oh, his steadiness. He had J but one? busi
ness, and that was the war. He did not 'keep
one eye on the people. Both his Jeyes 'were
right on the enemy and on his men. I always

Among other questions I; asked Oen. Bher
man what relative he was of Kogcr Sherman,
one of the authors of the declaration of inde-
randence. "Why," said he, "my grandfather,
think, was a first cousin of Roger Sherman.
I am also connected with the'Beecher family,
Henry Ward I Beeher. through the Sherman

through his Sherman motherhood. Blaine it

QUEEN BESS.
Love Passages la the Life of the
Fickle-Hearted Monarch.
Oentleman's Magazine.
The duke of Alencon was lodged at White,
hall, but afterward he had apartments as
signed to him at Greenwich, where the queen
then was. TLa closest intimacy again ensued
between tLo ivro; :ho warmest of love fetters
passed between them, though the conple saw
each other daily, and every morning Elizabeth
same into tho young man's room to give bin.,
with her own hands, a basin of soup. On the
day of the anniversary of her coronation sb
was walking with the duke arm-in-arm along
the corridor of the palace. The French em
bassador was announced, andj craved an au
dience. As soon as he appeared Elizabeth
stepped forward aud said with a smile to him:
"You can write to your master that the duke
will be my husband." Then, taking a ring
from her finger, she placed it on the hand of
tho duke, and turning to her maids of honor
Baid, "I have a husband; you, all of you can
follow my example if you like." After this
declaration it fccemed impossible that the mar
riage ceremony could be long deferred. Eliza
beth had given excuso after excuse for not fix
ing the day when the duke was to be made
the happiest of men; now it was her
health, then it was the state of Europe, and
then it was the opposition of her subjects,
until there seemed good ground for the fears
entertained by Simler. "Je ne croirai au mar
riage," he said, "que lorsvue lea draps seront
leves, Ice flambeaux eteints et mon maitre dans
lo lit." But after this open acknowledgment
of tho mau who was to be her husband,
further excuso and hesitation seemed impossi
ble. Yet the very morning after this an
nouncement this hysterical spinster came into
the duke's room and declared that it could not
be; she had passed the night in tears; three
more nights of such misery, alio said, and sho
would be a dead woman indeed, she could
not many. The duke threw the ring on the
floor, cursing the fickleness of the whole
sex, and vowed that ho would at
once take his departure. But Eliza,
both, who would not marry him, did not thiuk
it beneath herself to put her arms around his
neck to kira him and carets him, and to implore
him not to go. The duke, thus petitioned, con
sented to remain for a time. And for a time
Alencon passed his days now in the hope and
then in the despair common to the lover who is
not accepted and yet not dismissed. The queen
flirted with him,smiled upon him, and preseuta
still continued to be exchanged between the
two. One morning,while sitting with the duke,
hand in hand, Elizabeth, in her softest tones,
said she could never marry a Papist Hereupon
Alencon, with the most charming impartiality,
offered to turn Protestant. Alas! sighed the
queen, she did not feel toward him as she had
ouce felt. The duke now lost his temper, and
reminded her of all he had gone through, what
angitish of mind he had suffered, how he had
lost the good opinion of the Catholic world,
how deeply he loved her, and how he would
rather die with her than quit England indeed,
he swore ho would not quit England. "It is
very ill of you," said the queen, "to threaten
an old woman in her own Kingdom; you are
mad. and talk like a madman." Tho duke
wept, and Elizabeth Bat by his Bide alternately
wiping bis tears away with, her handkorchief
and caressing him as of old.
Strange Anecdote of Alexander H.
Stephens.
Boston Traveler.
Alexander H. Stephen was a devout Pres.
byterian, and thers waa just a touch of Scotch
superstition in hi blood, which made him a
believer in omens. He used to tell of this
strange incident connected with hi departure
from Washington, March 6, 1859. As th
steamer was going down the Potomac he
looked back, and while gazing on the receding
dome of the capital, some frionds, who saw
his meditative mood, approached and said:
"You must be looking up there and thinking of
your re-election to congress?" Iu reply to this
he said: "No, I am taking a last .look at that
dome, for I never expect to eo it or be in
Washington again until I come a a prisoner of
war." The stsar.iorj 'peel oxn tliejatreani, and
soon distance &sci tuc eLs-Jowb of night had
hidden tns dome of tb capitol from his view.
When next he riaitoi Washington and gazed ou
that dome ho was, indeod, a paroled prisoner of
war who had jnstbeen released from Fort
Warren.

Anthony Tr Hope's View of Leve.
Anthony Trollopo, just before he laid down
his pen never to tak$ it up again, wrote these
words, which will appear in his last novel:
"Amusement is good, truth is Jtilli better, and
love best of all. Lovo gives itself and is not
bought; but all .trao love is founded fon cs
toom." Helling the Ssncepnn.

When snnbeama fall.
Though th bright moaastl fly
They're counted all
My heart its transient woo
Remembers not;
The ills of long ago
Are half forgot;
But childhood' round of bliss,
Youth's tender trill,
Hope's whisper. Love' first Um

Of pleasure, too?

i CHISQ HOME AT LAST.
Will Carleton.
The banishment was overloag,
Ilut it will soon be past;
The man who wrote Home' sveeteit song
Is coming home at laatl
For year his poor abode was aeen
la foreign lauds alone,
And waves have thundered loud bstweau
This singer and his own.
But he will soon be journeying
To frionds across the ea ;
And grander than of any king
Hi welcome her shall be !
Us wandered o'er th dreary earth,
Forgotten and alone;
He who wonld teach Home's matchle.is worth
NVr had on of his own,
.Neath winter' cloud nj summer' sun.
Along th hilly read.
He bore hi great heart aud had uoue
To help him with the load;
And wheresoever iu his round
He went with weary tread,
His sweet, pathetic song be found
Had floated on ahead !
He heard the melodies it mad
Come pealing o'er and o'er
From royal music band that played
Before the palace door:
U heard its gentle tones of love
From many a cottage creep,
When tender crooning mother strov
To alng their babies to sleep ;
And whereso'cr true love had birth
This thrilling song had town ;
But he who taught Home's matohle , worth
Had no home of his own !
Tho banishment was qverlong,
But it will soon be past,
The man who wrote Home's sweetest song
Shall have a home at last!
And he shall rest where laurels wave
And fragrant grasses twine;
His sweetly kept and honored grave
Shall be a sacred shriue.
And pilgrims with glad eyes grown dim
Will fondly bend above
The man who sung the triumph hyiuji
Of earth's divinest love.
HE STBUOK BILLY PATTERSON.
Why dicorce W. Tlilert ou'i daughter
Claimf a Howard of nl.OOO.
j The Franklyn (N. Y.) Register has discovered
who struck Billy Patterson. Mr. Patterson
the father of Mme. Bouapsrte, was 6
wealthy Baltimorian. I'pon one oo
casion, while Mr. Patterson was in
Franklin looking after his property, a general
row occurred among tho boys, iu which he be
came involved. In the confusion, indeed,
some one struck Mr. Patterson a tremendous
blow and this so angered him that he walked
though the crowd, inquiring in sten
torian tones, "Who struck Billy Patter
son?" Mr. Patterson was a large aud power
ful man and. under the circumstances, no one
among the fighters appeared dosirous of hold
ing himself responsible. The inquiry passed
into a bv-word and even to this day the inquiry
can be heard, "Who struck Billy Patterson ?
The original Billy pursued the inquiry with as
tonishing vigor, but without avail, and at his
death, curiously enough, inserted a clause in
his will setting apart $1,000 (to be paid to the
sera on who should give to his heirs or executor
the name of the man who struck him. The
fight in which Billy Patterson was struck oc
curred in 178.'!. and it is passing strange that
just one hundred years after a claim should be
put tn ror the reward. And yet a correspond
ent of The Register savs that such is the case.
I A Mrs. Jennie G. Covejy of Athol, N. Y.,
daughter of George W. Tillerton, has written
to the ordinary of Franklin county, claiming
this legacy of 91,000. She states that she is
an invalid aged and infirm, aud in great need
of the money. In 1783 her father was quite a
vonncr man. and beinir in treat fear of Mr.
Patterson fled the country at oncefand never
heard of the reward or legacy. Sho says she
has often heard her father speak of the fight
and tho blow he gave Mr. Patterson and the
fierce anger of the latter. The thnmb of Til-
lerton's hand was disjointed by the blow and
was so severely injured that it remained a use
less member to the day of his death. As the
facta she gives correspond so exactly with the
facts of the case, the correspondent presumes
that Mr. Covely will receive the legacy with
out delay.
Salvlnt'8 Lament.
Philadelphia Press. j
A short time ago I heard Salvini lamenting
his miserablo life half the time on the verge
of desperation. In a foreign country, unable
to understand our language or our manner
("even in crowds, I'm still alone"), never hear
ing his own beautiful language, is it any won
der that he chafes and frets to get back to fair
Italy? He has a largs fortune, one of the finest
castles in the country, and the graves of two
young wive. This, he says, is to be bis last
6ason. He will go back to Italy and hi
princely home, and no doubt he thinks he will
settle down to th repos and enjoyment of
private are, .voe tne reader who know th
walks and wars of actors believe that we have
seen the last of Salvini? By no means dare
we. Do we not all remember how many times
grand old Forrest retired from the stage? And
glorious Charlotte Cushman, how many times
did she retire to private life We all remem

How the Qneen Receives the Xw.
Cassell's Magazine.
The queen has her own parliamentary re
porter, and whether she is in the far north or
at the isle of Wight, she is acquainted with ths
proceedings of both house long before any of
her subjects. Oa ordinary occasions brief ab
stract of ths debate are telegraphed to her
majesty, but should the discussion bo of ex
ceptional importance, fuller reports are sent.
and continued down to the close of the debate
and taking of the division. Besides the tele
grams received by her majesty from both
house, th leader of ths house of lords and
and ths prims minister in the honse of com
mons write her a short account of the debate.
Outside the walls of parliament, the queen is
probably the first to know that ministers have
gained a victory or Buffered a defeat In time
of war, too, the qusen is kept fully informed
of tho progress of events day by day and hour
by hour, and every dispatch from the commander-in-chief
to the war oftic is forwarded
direct to her majesty by special messenger.

having lost his upper teeth, wore a false set,
was engaged in serious conversation with some
Indiana. Hi plato troubling him, he took it
out and wiped it with hi handkerchief. The
Indians watched the process with unfeigned
astonishment When tho captain, putting the
plate in his mouth, went on with the conversa
tion, they sprang to their feet and left the room
and post in all haste, and with every symptom
of extreme terror.
