New News Of Yesterday ^c/iiiG rmer*s' Story of Grant’s Opponent — Horatio Seymour's Practical Political Lessen to Chauncey M. Depew Wren Latter Was Secretary of State of New York. "If was just four years before Hora tio Seymour was nominated by the Democratic party, in imTS. :• run igainst General Grant for preside:.: of the I nited States, that 1 received !rom him w hat I hav* often regarded is the mo>: practical political ..-sson that was • ver taught me." said Sena ‘or Chauncey M Depew at a time when ;L- di-cussion turned upon po .itical leadership and political loaders if yesterday "Mr. Seymour had been elected gov ?rnor of New York in 1863—he had iiso filled that office ten years before —and in the election of '63 I was a 'andicat- for secretary of state 1 went into :b- campaign very earnestly —I was only tight years out of col eg- and political life looked mighty tempting to me—and the arguments '.hat 1 delivered on the stump through iut the state were at times pretty well -easoned with ]>olitical spice of the •ery hot sort. "Well, after the campaign was over tnd 1 had found myself elected by a majority twice as large as that which jovernor Seymour had received the year before, the thought occurred to me That the governor might not want :o Fpeak to me, for I had been quite persona! regarding him in some of my speeches. But. to my astonishment I lad not long been in office when the governor invi'ed me to spend a few lays with him a- his home in TTtica. gromising. among other things, to take me to his farm at Deerfield, a few i miles out of the city Overjoyed at the discovery that I had not made a persontl enemy of him. I Immediately tccepted the invitation, and arriving at his home, found him a man of won derful personal charm, of an ideal do mestic life, and a most entertaining story teller of men and events. "The next morning, at the breakfast able, the governor announced that we would drive out that day to his coun try place and do some farming. A little later a regular farm wagon, without springs, with no other seat in it than a board, and with all kinds of farm tools protruding form the rear, was brought to the door. At the same instant the governor appeared at the door. But no longer was he the immaculately clad host of the breakfast table Instead, he was the •ypical farmer in appearance. His rlothes were old. his trousers were very baggy, and the hat that rested upon his head matched perfectly with the rest of his costume. Getting into the wagon, he invited me to be seated beside him. took up the reins, and away we jolted to the farm "When we arived there the govern or Took me into the house for a little refreshment and then proposed that we rest in the large chairs that were placed upon the broad piaria As we seated ourselves I observed that the wagon had disappeared "We chatted for a long time, and many a vivid word picture my host drew of men then prominent lr. state and national polities Finally, as the sun »aq beginning to cast shadows from the west, began to speak about myself " You have begun a political ca reer.' he said 'Well, in my opinion you have many (qualities for a suc cessful carver of that sort You have some cift of public speaking and > ou know how- to approach tactfully. But if you were to ask my advice. 1 should tell you emphatically not to go into politics but to stick to y u- proft s sior The law always offers a g,»od field to the ambitious young man "For a moment he looked at me fur tlveiy to stv' how 1 was taking his ad vice, and then continued " But if you insisT upon a political car*“er. 1 have just one piece of advice for you N'qqer read an opposition newspaper, never read a personal or political attack upon yourself or your party, never listen to anyone who brings you a report of that kind: read your own party journals, r*ad plenty Dirge Carl Schurz Played * Rendered “The Heart Bowed Down" After Horace Greeley Was Nomi nated by the Liberal Republican Convention In 1872. One of the men who took a very prominent part in the organization of the famous Liberal Republican party movement of th# early seventies, which instantly went to pieces follow ing Greeley's defeat for president by General Grant, running for re-election In IS72. was the late Samuel Bowies, for more than thirty years prior to his death in ISIS a powerful editorial in fluence throughout the country Allied with him in the task of organizing the Liberal Republican party were three other famous editors, the late Murat Halstead. Henry Watterson and the late Carl Schurz. then United States senator from Missouri These four men were prominent members of the national convention of the Libera! Republicans, held in Cincinnati in 1S72. But not one of them had planned for Mr. Greeley's nomination. Their candidate was Charles Francis Adams of Boston. Yet. brilliant editors though they were, they could not match in political skill some of the professional politicians in Incident of Sherman in 1846 Hew Henry A.

Henry A Wise, United States minis ter to Brazil, and later the governor of Virginia, who signed John Brown's ieath warrant and a Confederate major general, went for a stro'.! to the docks • of Rio Janeiro. Some days before he had been told that an American clip per ship might make the port, and he did not wish to miss his fellow coun trymen there; hence his daily haunt ing of the water front. On this particular morning he had not quite reached the dock when he spied two keen-eved and alert young men, who bore every outward sign of being Americans and who seemed to be Intensely interested in the scenery that the harbor of Rio Janeiro af fords. Going up to them, Mr. Wise put out his hand. “You are from the United States," he said. “So am I. Am I right in as suming that you are passengers upon the clipper ship that I see is taking in stores at the pier yonder?" The two young men replied in the affirmative and then Mr. Wise intro duced himself, saying that he was the American minister at the Brazilian court, and adding that he would be j pleased to have the two travelers dine with him. Thereupon the strangers expressed their delight at the invita tion and immediately accepted it, the younger of the two then introducing the other as Colonel Henry W. Hal leck of the United States army. “And." : said Colonel Halleck. indicating his , companion. "Captain William T. Sher- | man. also of the United States army." : adding that they had been ordered around the Horn to duty in California. A few hours later the two officers i who were destined to figure so promi nently in the world's greatest civil war. were received at the American legation with true Virginia cordiality. When dinner was announced. Minister Wise arose and in his very best man ner apologized for the unavoidable ab sence of Mrs. Wise, who, he explained, vaa indisposed temporarily. During the meal itself, which was protracted by the good time the diners were hav ing. the host occasionally, excused himself in order to inquire about Mrs. Wise, and left the dining room, re turning each time after a short in terval and resuming the conversation where it had been left off. Thus the evening had worn away, and everybody was feeling in the best of humor when there came a knock at the dining room door. The next mo ment it was thrown open and in walk ed a physician, smiling broadly, and behind him a still happier woman, who carried a bundle well swathed in flann 1. Mr.-chir.g up to the table, the wo man lowered her arms a bit and then gently parted a portion of the flannels, revealing to the three diners the face of a newly-born infant—and as the two officers looked their astonish ment. their host pointed to the baby as the explanation of Mrs. Wise's non appearance at dinner and happily ex plained that It was a boy. Of course, the youngster's health was toasted then and there in approved style by the two representatives of the United States army. Eighteen years later this baby, as Lieutenant John S. Wise of the Con federate army, won the distinction of carrying the last dispatch from Gen eral Robert E. Lee to Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederate States of America. Still another eighteen years later, John S. Wise, as a rep resentative In Congress from the Richmond (Va.) district, met General William Tecumseh Sherman in Wash ington and asked him if he remem bered being entertained with General Halleck in Rio Janeiro, back in 1S46. by the United States minister of Bra zil. Henry A. Wise. "Oh. yes. I remember the incident very well,” was the reply, "and I also recall the little surprise partv we had.” “Well, General, I was that baby,” said Representative Wise. The old warrior critically surveved the heavy weight before him. "Well,” he retorted, with his eves characteristically a-twinkle. "all I've got to say is. you don't look it” (Copyright. WM^J>y E J.

We foresaw that : the nomination of Mr. Greeley made : defeat in November inevitable, and we I realised that the defeat would prob ably be a very sorrowful one. We went into the parlor of the suite occu < pied by Mr. Sch.un and sat down, with the gloom about us thicker than : I ever saw it before Mr. Scfcurx was : especially despondent; his is a very mercurial temperament, anyway. Mu rat Halstead was the most cheerful | member of the party, and he looked a good deal as though he had just ' come from a dear friend's funeral. And each of us sat there communing with his own glum thoughts; we did 1 not need to speak to let one another know our feelings. "We had been sitting thus for a quarter of an hour, maybe, when, sud denly, Mr. Scburz sprang from his chair, hurried over to the piano, lifted the lid. sat upon the stool and began to play, as the brief report had It. the familiar air of 'The Heart Bowed Down With Grief.’ from the 'Bohemian Girl.’ Then, after a little, he began to hum and then to sing the accompanl ment, and. I think, some cf us joined in the humming. "I don't believe anyone could have found a better piece of music to ex press our feelings at that moment. Our hearts were certady bowed down with grief, for we had failed to nomi nate our man. and we saw certain de feat ahead. Oh. how funereal that mu sic sounded that day! Yet now. as I recall the incident, I cannot help smiling over the fact that Car! Schwrx should have selected a comic open, tune as the one most fitting to serve as the dirge of the Liberal Republican movement." (Copyright. 1»K. — E J. Rtfwwrda. 4B Rights Reserved.*
