HOW OKX. TWIOG .SILVER AND SWORD. '
CAME 1XTO "HLS POSSESSION AXE
WHAT HE DID WITH THEJL
Trenton ( X. J } Oazcttc , May 7.
Mr. Sliller , pastor of the Warren
street church of this city , having hap
pened upon .1 statement by the corre
spondent of a western paper , purport-
in ; : to explain how Gen. Butler ac
quired the unhappy fame of "a pur *
loiner of silver spoons , " nent the
statement to that ijentldman , and has
received the subjoined ackowledge-
ment :
Bovrox , Mass. , May 2 , 1881.
DEAKSIK : * * * If yttti will
look in Pr.rlon's "Butler in New Or
leans" you will find a minute and pre
cisely accurate description of how the
Twigg's silver and swords came into
my hands , it having been dug up , but
not in Mr. Twigg'e garden. The
swords wore very valuable , being pre
sentation bwords , haying gold cross
ings and mountings , "ornamented with
diamonds , ono given by the United
States to Gen. Twigirs. and the other
two by Uw city " if Augusta. Ga. , nnd
the state of Georgia , his birthplace
ind state- , for his gallantry in the
Mexican war. I sent them to Presi
dent Lincoln , with a letter , which you
will also find in tlif Eailto l > ook.
The iiext 1 know of them , happen
ing to l > e in the president's ofiice at
: ho White House , soon after Presi-
ilent Johnson occupied it , I saw the
Jirce swords standing in the corner.
[ inquired of the president's private
secretary if ho kili'w vhnse nnd what
jyi\ern : H" pa'd ' lit ? did Hot ; tlmt
they > \ei'o standing there when ho
came into the office , nnd that ho did
not know whom they belonged to. I
: < > 1 < 1 him , and also told him their
value , which ho had not appreciated
> eforc. I then w nt jk' tlld Secretary
> { tin ? UCiisury and asked that the
swords bo taken possession of and
"ocked up. Ho referred mo to the
lupervising architect , Mr. Mullott ,
.vho caused a nice strong IK > X to be
nade , which I took in niy carriage
ind wont to < U'j Whiltt HOund , and
, ho swords were put into the box and
jivcn to mo , and were then taken in
ny carriage and remained in my li-
> rary a day or two , until it was con
venient for mo to take tin-in to the
.roasury. I then tKok.tlicin there pn'd
lad tlibin dt'pl'sUm ' in the treasury
fault , and took a duplicate key , uhich
vas the only receipt I had for the do-
wsit. Meantime , the woman who
came and made claim f r 0 < 0 aff < ird ,
i Md by I'nrum. brought suit in
the United States ciHlrt in New York
against me , whicli Ij 'f frtili'go , dOfetld-
ed , the SWords at that time being de-
H sited as I have told you. I was iu-
onncd that this suit would bo releas
ed if I would rncnmiiii'iiil Hwt tHCy be
given l'ttk ! ! to nor. I declined that
irojKisition. 1 said they did not be-
eng to her , but if they belonged to
anybody , \ y the government , I hey be-
onged to Gen. TwiggV children.
iVhen the fiiit Mas VuUUdioi' trial the
cLiin'iiiuts became non-suit. Thero-
ipon they petitioned the secretary of
ho treasury for the delivery to them
f the swords. The inatlur was re-
brred to mo , and J made n report
igainsl ll <
Afterward , on the lloor of the house
Mr. Garfield came to mo and asked
no if 1 would go into Hie cpoakor's
room and see Gen. Twigg's daughter ,
Mrs. Myers , Iho wife i'f ' Col : Myers ,
vho wa < t nt itirp Hi'.iU il quartermaster
'n the I'liltcd States service , who do-
lired some information about her
'ather'sswords. 1 told him , of course ,
I would see the lady and tell her all 1
enow alniut them. I met hnr in the
tresenco of Gen. Gnrlichi nnd drnlcd
lie fnOlS U ) hoi1 about the swords , and
"urther said that I should recommend
he govoninient , if called upon , to de-
iver them to her.
I then paid ( > Jtt'i' , ! li Milistauce :
'But yilu don't ask me about the box
> f family silver which I got at the
same time with the swords. I under-
itand the reason , I think , and appre
ciate the delicacy which promplH your
course. You think it uould b un-
ilcnsnnt. f r nw ti' l < llk aliout that ,
hi tile Contrary you know I occupied ,
xs my headpuarters nt New Orleans ,
r-our father's house. When I got the
diver I put it on the side-board whore
t had formerly stood , with
the rwt of Iho fiirniture of
, ho holiSo Avhich I was using , and used
t , as I supjxiscd it had'becn used,3un-
, il I was relieved of my command in
New Orleans in December lSli'2 , when
turned that over , with all other
[ iroporty under my control , belonging
io the United Slates or others , with
i careful itemized inventory , to the
juartermaster of my successor , and
took his receipt for that silver plato
and all other found in Now Orleans
which came into my hands or under
my control , for them was quite a quan
tity captured from different parties ,

for your inspection , and will furnish
you a copj * of them whenever you de
sire to make claim.
The lady reapoiulod with thanks
and the proper courtesies of the oc
casion , nnd there my knowledge of
the subject ends.
I have never told the story , or any
part of it , to any interviewer or news
paper man , and I do not know that I
liave over spoken of it outside of my
oflico or my family , and I am in no
way rosiwnsiblo for the newspaper
irticlo , whicli contains mainly the
'acts. At any rate , you can make the
comparison between that statement
nnd this
I have never xmdertnkcn to cuter
into denials or explanations of the
various slanders against mo , because
the bitterness engendered , naturally ,
in the war , nude them very numerous ;
Lho cupidity of men who , .possibly l > e-
lieving them to bo trim , though by
[ iressing them upon mo nnd cir
culating thorn as true they could
obtain money ; and vituperation and
< lander , which arc now recognized
means of iwlitical canvassing , made
all such story ready weapons , and so
numerous aird inces.smt that if I Imd
undertaken to nnswer them all Tshould
have had time to do nothing else. And
I have trusted that , so far as I know ,
a blameless business and social life
would bo the l > est answer. I have
only made public witnesses in those
matters where the honor or integrity
of others has been concerned. If I
liad entered into explanation of any
one of them , and failed to enter into
an explanation of all of them , the
Tact of answering ono and not answer
ing the others would have been taken
te bo a confession of the truthfulness
of the unanswered ones , the cry being
immediately raised , "well , ho answer
ed ono which ho could answet ; the
there which are unaswered he could
not ansewr. "
Perhaps it might not IKS uninterest
ing to you to know that immediately
after the war suits were brought
against me aggregating , in claims of
damages , quite a million of dollars , in
the courts of New York and Baltimore
upon every matter where the pursuers
thought 1 had cither exceeded my au
thority or acted wrongfully. Three
of those suits have been tried , and I
have been sustained in each case by
the courts , and all the others have
Iven discontinued or left silently to
slumber more than 15 years. No
judgment for a dollar has over been
recovered against me in them , nor ever
will be.
My acts in New Orleans and else
where where I had command have
been brought in question in collateral
suits between other parties , which
have gone up to the supreme court of
the United States , and I never have
heard of a single instance where what
I had done has not been confirmed by
that court.
With this record I am content to
leave such matters to the fair judg
ment of all honest men , especially
when supplemented by another con-
sidciation ; that during ten years of
pretty prominent action in congress ,
when party passions and prejudices
were at their height , ° act of min
as a member of congress has ever beoi
investigated by any committee. Be
fore I went to congress a bitter chargt
was made against me in the house o
representatives , and an investigatioi
asked , which was fully met and an
Bwored in the house by a triumphant
vote against even an investigation.
As chief executive officer of thu
board of managers of the Home for
Disabled Soldiers , sdnlo eight Or ton
million dollars of the money of the
United States passed through mj
hands , and somb years ago on investi
gation Iwing demanded of niy action
it was liad before the military com
mittee of the house of representatives ,
and a unanimous report of that com
mittee , of men of both parties , exon
erated mo from all blame , and oven
from having made any errors of judg
ment.
Again when I surrendered my trust ,
ifter 14 years of service , the board of
managers , composed in a majority of
men of the highest character , nnd of
different pnHtJcs , pa&Ud resdliitidn
of appreciation of my action and of
personal confidence and regard , of
which I am reasonably proud.
Pardon , my dear sir , this prolix
statement , which perhaps may , after
\ll.bo otvery little interest to you.
Jut as I dictate it , the memory runs
> ack over a long series of years of
wblic sen-ice , and the mind is rouswl
> y a deep sense of injury from a sea
of calumny , the waves of which crowd
ijnm mo and cauno mo , perliapa , to
nistake that which is of interest toile
ilo ftir that which would clahii y'b'ur
ittention. But ,
"Timent last xcU all tliinfw even ;
And if we do but watch the hour ,
There never yet was human jiower
Which could evade , if unforjjiven ,
The patient senrrh ; n'il tf'U ! IrtHjr *
Of him who treasures tip n wrong. "

THE STtfAKTS AND OTHERS.
Robert L. Stuart , thu fiurvivor of
the sugar manufacturing brothers , is
estimated at $0,000,000. Judge Hil
ton is of equal woalthi Ho got all
this through Ids ac" < iualutaiicp with A.

Mrs. Stewart , which was immensely
in his favor. Robert L. Kennedy ,
nephew of James Lenox , is estimated
at $5,000,000. , Ho gave a $10.000
picture to the Lends , institute ( Mun-
kiiscy's Milton ) , and will no doubl
make some other handsome benefac
tions. Robert and Ogden Goelet , who
are the heirs of the immense Goelet
estate , nro estimated at $20,000,000.
The Asters are worth more than

who is the heir of her brother James ,
is probably woith § 2,000,000 , the in

manner practised by her brother.
Miss Lenox is no doubt dispensing a
larger amount in charity that any
other woman in America. Petei
Cooper is the oldest cf our capitalists
and also the most philanthropic. He

George Law is next in point of age
being now eighty-two. Ho weigh
nearly 300 pounds , and this bos
seriously impaired his activity. Hi
owns the Dry Dock bank , and tholar
gest i > art of the Eighth Avenue Sur
face railroad , his entire" wealth beinj
estimated at 83,000,000. What a con
trast between these two lasfmentionet
capitalists , for while Cooper has beei
lavish in his benefactions , Georgt
Law has never been known to do any
thing for philanturopy. He rosofroir
the working class , but does not ap
pear to have any sympathy with it o
with humanity in any shape.
HEBREW WEALTH.
This class of our citizens holds ar
immense amount.of wealth , but it i
chiefly in personal property" which es
capes taxation , and is more easily han
died than real estate. The Hebrewj
are increasing in a very marked de
gree , both in property and influence
Old as the race may be , it exhibits nr
effete features. While other nation
have gone out of existence , and mere
ly hold a place in history , the Jewi
are on the advance , and are rapidl ;
growing in the power of gold. One
of the richest Hebrews in this city i
August Belmont , who is probabl'
worth ? 3,000,000. This has beer
made in the banking business , ii
which Belniontas agent for the Roths
childs , has had the greatest advan
tages. He has avoided specula
tion nnd applied himself
solely to this specialty ,
investigating the profits in first-class
'
securities. 'Ho has never been ad
dicted to real estate purchases , nnd
the splendid house which the family
occupy in the Fifth avenue was given
by him to his wife us a bridal present.
Belmont does not associate with the
Jews , and his family attend the Epis <
copal church , but personally speaking
ho acknowledges the control of the
Hebrew customs in wh.Jch lie was
brduglit up. Beliiio'Ut in niJtv jMSl
three score and ten. Ho came hither
from Germany forty years ago , his
name then being Schonberg , which ho
changed into the present more eupho
nious title. Aside from Belmont the
record of Hebrew 'wealth includes the
Seligmans , the Bornheimers , the Marx
family , the Stetheimers and Stems ,
and others who might bo mentioned
in the same connection.
HKA1. K.STATB KAMlIiY.
Although the Hebrews rw a riaticiii
are ndt addicted td real estate1 , thia
city contains ono family which is
noted fir this kind of wealth , t nl-
ludo to the Hendricks. who are almost
the oilly Jews engaged in tlio traffic of
iron , brass nnd other metals. This
family is ono of the oldest in the city.
The first New York Director- , pub
lished in 1780 , contains the naino of
"Uriah Hendricks , iron inongery , 43
Hanover square. " The Mine direc
tory contains the name of Peter Goe-
lot ) 4M Hnnovor Square. The latter
was also a dealer in iron ward , but till )
business was long sindO didctin *
tinned , while the Hendrickn have
remained in operation. They ear
ly became purchasers of real es
tate , which they have conUulially ln\-
proved , until they now own square
after square of richly productive prop
erty. The attention whicli the
Hebrews devote to business is a strong
ly marked feature in their character.
They can resist the claims both of ill
ness and pleasure for that purpose. I
