Gon. Arthur's father. Ito \vns boruF
ind educated about ] ) elfast , Ireland , !
find came to Canada , and thence , scek-g
ing newer fields nnd larger congrega-l
tions , crossed the American line , mult
trhilo settled a few inilca cast uf St. |
Albans , Yonngnt. Gen. Arthur was
born in the township of Fairliold.
TUB IIOlllIT OV HIS MIHTH.
Probably his father had to recross the ]
line to preach , nnd oven to reside ,
Kftor the general's birth ; nnd this has
'ed to some notion that the vices- ;
resident was born in Canada , an ]
idea which 1 think is to bo clashed
ivith that of AVilkos Booth being still
; xlivo and Mr. Stanton having cut his
throat. It is not rcasoiiablu tint a
gentleman nwaro of his disabilities
ihould take the oath as vico-prcsi-
dent. Yet it is sometimes hard for
non of itinerant , clerical parentage ,
born fifty years ago , to bo thoroughly ]
rt.ccuratoabout their birthplace. Gen.
Arthur's father probably lived in
twenty different towns , nnd preached1
in about that many towns after the- ]
3on was born. The general drifts of
liis residence was down the east side
3f Lake Clminpliiin to the foot of the
lake nnd then in Southern Vermont , ]
iround the field of JJctmingtoit andl
aver into Now York State , nbout in
the quarter of the Hoosae Tunnel ,
ind so on to Troy , Albany und |
Schonectady.
Tlio old man was called to the city
jf Now York a few years before the
ivar , and had quite n good churcli
lioro called the Calvary IBaptist. Ht
tvns not only n minister , hut an ]
mthor , something of the style ol
Disraeli's father. While Bon Dis
raeli , the older , wrote ' the "Curipsi- ]
iies of Literature , " ll'ov. Mr. William
( Vrthur wrote the ' 'Origin of Modern
Names. "
mi : r.vriiEn.
About 1875 the old man died , be- ]
lolding his son collector of the Port
if New York and considerable of nj
man in the councils of the radical re
publican party. The benevolence , !
ivarmth of character and love of
knowledge in William Arthur are of- ]
en talked of by other clergymen nuil
) y some politicians hero. It is proba
> lo that Gen. Arthur's mother was n
Now England woman. Her nnmo in
dicates it , both in the prenom and
the surname Malvina Stono. Wil-
iam and. Malvina Arthur had1 n good ,
big Yankee family , five daughters
nnd two sons. Thc'Hecond son wont
into the war , was a good officer and
! s'now major and paymaster in the
regular service. Ho probably owes to
liis brother his durable situation in
the service. Not- much is known
about the daughters. Clicslcr A. Ar
thur has unquestionably been the center
ter of the family for the past twenty
years , and has given status to his
father'as well as his father's children.
As wo shall sco further , this son car
ried the. Baptist proneher's stock into
ono of tlio oldest families of Virginia.
Like most clergymen , William Ar
thur thought about the best ho could
Jo for his children was to educate )
them. Preachers seldom acquire ]
money unless they marry it , and
Chester Arthur was sent to Union
lege at Schenectady , 'Now York.
Very little is said about the institu-j
; ion , Union college , nowadays , thougl :
t still flourishes moderately and hat
i strong list of alumni. It stands in
the very middle of Schonectady.
Schenectady , a few miles west of
Troy and Albany , and south of Sara
; oga , is ono of the early Dutch settle
nonts of Now York , and after the
. -evolution Gen. .Schuylor started the
brmation of a college. It was char-
.prcd by the "Itogonts of the Univor-
iity , ' ( of whom Whitelaw Reid in
low one ) , near the close of Washing-
on'a Administration. It was a Gal-
inistic college , and its first two nres-
dents wore John Blair Smith , of
ilampdon - Sidney , Virginia , and
'onathan Edwards , son of the incta-
ihyeician. Finally that remarkable
nan , Eliphalct Nott , the son of poor
mrcnts in Connecticut , waa called to
Jnion college when ho was only thir-j
y-ono yours old.
Dr. Noti was a preacher nt Cherr , .
iralloy , Now York , nnd in the Pres-
tytorian church at Albany. When
Uoxandcr Hamilton was killed Dr.
* fott delivered n powerful oulopy up-
> n him from the pulpit , and nn nt-
ack upon dueling As HOOII as Nott
ook cfiargo of Union college ho ap-
) led ! a business head to making it
ieh , nnd among hiu invcaliiiontH was
ho purohnso of what is now a city op
> osite Manhattnn Island at IldntcrV
Joint. TJio Now York Potter fnir.i-
y of whom Clurksori Potter is the
no.st distingiiulied , is doscondei ]
rom Dr. Nott , nnd the original Peter -
or waa oiio of Noll's profossora nl
Jnion.
Under this ecccntrio yet _ luminoiib' '
nan Arthur received liis education
nd graduated in J8-17. Ho iiiiniodi-
, tely took up Dr. Nott's old calling
.nd went to teaching school in Vor-j
nont. With about $500 ho ntnrted
or Now York City , where Eratus D.
Culver , a congressmen who had just
est his seat , had n law ollico , and
vith him Arthur began to study
aw , Arthur soon concluded to go
rest nnd establish himself in some
atisfuctory town , and ho pjckod a
'oung man named Oardinur to bo his
cilaw nrtnr ,

They looked at eovorul towns in
.rowing parts of the west , but thought
heir opportunities would not bo HO
; oed as if they cnmo back to the City
'f ' Now York. Arthur wan good I
ookinu , nnd he became acquainted
ath the widow and daughter of Liout.
Herndon , of the American navy , Yii
ijinia people.
William Lewis Herndon had beet
drowned in J8r > 7 ? nt the ngo f forty
four , on the ship Central Amorion
winch ho commanded. Herai benin
? in the town where Gen. NVashingtoi
was raised , Frcdcricksburg , and was
the brother-in-law of Lieut. Mitury. .
iho Virginia rebel nnd scientific mini
Herndon explored the Amazon river ,
ind had a high reputation , when tin
Central American sunk coming fron
[ 1 avnna to Now York , with ! )24 ) pan
jcngors and nearly ono hundred sail-
> rs and $2,000,000 in gold treasure ,
llerndon was cool ns n May morning ,
ind when the few who survhed sau
.ho ship go down ho was standing on
lie wheel house , some say , with n
: igar between his tooth , issuing or-
lors. Fur mnny years , or until tin
robollioii bmko out , ho was the popu-
ar hero of the United States. Tin
Jonulon family is ono of the best in
Virginia. By Miss llerndon , whom
to married , General Arthur has a son
'ully grown , His wife died onlj
ibout olio year before ho bccaim
neo president. Although n stnhvnrt
opublicnn in almost uvcryneiiso , Gtiii.
Vrthur , through his wife , has the best
southern connections. Ho ought tea t <
> oa national president.
A YOUNOKH HinVAlll ) ,
It has boon said , with good reason ,
hat General Arthur compelled tin
concession , on the street railroad
: ars , for colored pcoplo to ride. The
fourth Avenue Street Railroad , Now
York , which belongs to the Harlem
Steam "Railroad Company , undertook
to put a blsek woman ofl' . It waa
Jono with violence , nnd she applied
to Arthur , who brought suit mid
* ot n verdict of § 500 against the
company. Tlio next day after this
verdict nn order was posted up in the
: ars allowing colored pcoplo to ride ,
'roviously , throughout the immense
ongth of Now York island , only otu >
railroad allowed black people to bi-
wssengors , nnd then only in particu-
ar ears.
William H. Sownrd , in 18SO , was
concerned in hia first slave case , that
vliich turned his attention to the pol-
tics of nnti-slnvery. A reuisition ( )
'rom N7irginin wns made upon Gov.
oonard in that year for three colored
icamcn who had concealed a slave in
heir vessel and brought the slave ti
tfew York. The slave had been sur-
onderod ; the ignoble bloodhounds
low demanded Jus fellow-negroes and
rionds. The ReCordcr of Now _ York
3ity would not honor the requisition
jf the small Virginia Pharoah. This
map then impudently called on the
Sovernor of New York to override
ho Recorder and Judge in law. Sow-
ird inado the grand argument that
cquisitions , under the American Con-
titution , must bo made for real crimes
igainst civilization , not crimes made
ubitrary by a potty portion of man
kind , such as rescuing a brother from
lavcry. No Virginia could pursue
he human race after declaring a por-
ion of it in dereliction. A debt pris-
> nor could not bo pursued into New
fork from Pennsylvania. Whythen ,
mould a slave-dealer bo mishod into
tfow York from Virginia ? -All that
Virginia did by pursuing the' case

Gen. Arthur's connection with the
jominon case , in 1857 , was very much
ike Sownrd's position eighteen years
: arlior. It involved the right of
nasters to ship slaves from border
itntcs through the free port of New
fork. He was the associate of Win.
H. Evarts , opposing Charles O'Conor
or the slave-shipper. But I will not
iwcll on this case.
His semi-political connections as n
awyer had passed out of the public
nind when Chester A. Arthur became
nvolved in n dispute with the ndmin-
stration of Hayes and Sherman. Ye ;
Arthur's political record was by no
neans short or scanty. Ho was not
wactly r founder of the republican
mrty in Now York , but was ono of
he younger men who assisted to form
t.
In 1854 , when the Nebraska policy
f Picrce's administration became un-
lopular , the beaten whi s in Now
fork state , led by Seiyard , Weed and
3reoley , called nn nnti-Nebraska con-
ontion nt Saratoga , which adjourned
o Auburn , Sewnrd's homo , where ,
iftor a debate , it was concluded to re-
ain the whig machine , but to bo ready
or a new party movement. The con-
oquonco was the election of Myron
1 , Clark to bo governor and Henry
r. .Raymond lieutenant governor.
21 ark succeeded Horatio Seymour's
rat term in 1855.
Tlio next year , while the whigs still
trugglcd to keep their organization ,
wo conventions met nt Syracuse , one
nade up of nnti Nebraska democrats ,
nd presided over by Reuben E. Fen
on , the other Btrai htout-out ropubli

1 limsclf n native of Now England ,
'ho Morgan republicans were beaten ,

n 1857 , and two years nftorwnrd
lorgan waa elected. There have
inco boon three republican governors

Edwin D. Moigiiu , without having
iterary or tweaking abilities , was n
evel-hunded mini , of a rather phlog-
nutio temperament , perfectly sincere
n his viewH attaint slavery and in
'uvor ' of the Union , if necessary bj
vur. Ho wua a dealer in groceries ,
iroduco , Migar , etc. , and had made
ijiisidcniblu money , but his most iiu-
jortant enterprise was the consohda-
ion of the Now York Central rail-
oad , which gave him n bias toward (
Vlbany. When elected governor he
: allcd in various young men to make
cady for the threatened war between
he Hcctions. Arthur had been in
he state militia , an important feature
> f Now York state institutions , The
nilitiu hero is well kept up , and ib
inder rigid state supervision. Mor-
; uii successively made Arthur ongi-
lecr-in-chiof , inspector-general , and
Inally quartormaster-gonoral. lur-
ng the war New York raised an enor-
nous army , suoh as 'vouhl dri credit
o a very largo nation. Arthor trans-
ictcd the purchasing business of tin
itato to un enormous amount ol
nonoy without inclining any scandal ,
ind came out of the oflico not mucl.
ihcad. It is said tlmt ho rofuscc1
ivcry present sent to hiln , whether o !
( military clothing , saddles , homes or
[ trifles. Yet ho did make money al
[ the close when large numbers uf wa >
jolnitns were put in the hnnds ol
{ Arthur & G.mliner. The firm nlsc
became celebrated for the speed with ]
Hivhich it could draft and put throng !
[ legislative bills nt Albany orash
[ ington.
Aimil'llA I'OI.ITK'UN ,
It is said that Tom Murphy , after'
Iwnrd collector of the port , drew
PAitliur info politics byhaving the citj
l ovcrniuont , in Tamany times , mnki
jArthur coun.sol to tax commissioners ,
jjln turn Arthur assisted to make Mur-
iphy n state senator. After Giv
{ punched the presidency ho put Murphj
jmto the place of collector of the port ,
jjwhocoirpon there wi\s a loud oppoai-
i ion , followed by Murphy's ' resigna
Jtion , nnd , at Murphy's request , Gran !
jtliun made Arthur collector uf the
[ port , much to the surprise of the pee
Iplo , who in general knew little nboiil
( lain. For the next tort years , how-
laver , the constant investigation ! ! o
Sthu custom-house , and the lingo 'busi-
luess it did for the country madi
Arthur n marked man. When he wax
Iromoved by Hayes strong petitions
Iworo prepared in protest. But Gen.
BMorritt took the plauo and hold it until -
| til the recent conllrmation uf Robert-
M
I In the meantime Arthur , who lint
developed into n pretty bright politl
oian , nnd had got complete control o
the Conkling machine in New York ,
bccnmo the regular engineer of the republican >
publican campaigns. Itvn lie who
[ decided to support Conper , democrat ,
for mayor. His ollice was in tlm Fiftl' '
iivetiue hotel , and nearly all the
[ moneys to bo ( pent for the electior
passed through his hands. The mer
ihanta generally had conlidenco in
lim. His mnniior was rather fine ,
pot swoot. lie was nhv.iys fair to
ook upon , with a pair of lioh black
eyes , in which lay n reliuod smile. A
lealthy color was in his cheeks , be
tokening ijood Hying , and ho wore a
pretty dress , which became him. Not
originally n man of strong powers , his
graces are such tlvit when ho has done
i thing for a curtain time he shows
skill and pctfectneaa in it. Ho be
came a politician slowly , and seldom
ircsumed until ho know the business ,
ind then ho could bo suvi-ro if neces
sary. Ho had to say "no" often , nnd
cut oil' the head of many n friend. If
there is anything ho will bo perfect in
ivhcn ho takes the presidency it will
jo making appointments nnd iv
novnls.
SUMMAUV OF Cll.UlACTKK.
Arthur is a republican politician in
lis views , biit a democratic politician
n his ways. Ho would regulate a
j.irty on the Jacksonian plan , of dis-
cipilino from the top. Under Mor
gan , ho saw n rich , Holf-seeking and
rather timid man , who , after he had
reached the highest position in the
state , had not the art to maintain
lijnsolf , and was easily beaten by
b'chton for the senate. Being the
joneliciary of Fenton's discom-
iituro , Arthur , of course ,
illicd himself to Gen. Grant ,
uid through Grant to Conkling. He
possesses in n high degree the rccop-
: ivef docile qualities of character
necessary to get along with Conkling.
Hint phlegm and stolid conceit , Gov.
Cornell possesses is foreign to Arthur's
nature. There is a great deal that is
still boyish , generous and pretty about
Arthur. Ho has v boon accustomed ,
liowovor , to behavior rather than to
Formulating principles. He is an in
tense republican , and believes that to
let go of the organisation in tht
slightest respect in to invite disaster
to the party. Ho thinks Conkling tc
bo n man of the largest powera both
of mind and will. Conklimr , however ,
did his best to keep Arthur from nc
copting the nomination for vico-prosi
dent , which has turned out to bt
Conklimr s only salvation in the time
of despair. Gen. Arthur might , there
fore , begin to consider himuolf n wisoi
politician than Conkling.
Although the nomination of Arthur
was not well received in Now York ,
bccnuso ho was considered to bt
rather a city politician than a states
man , yet it no doubt did Ntrengthei
the ticket in this quarter. Ho was
aeon every day conducting the campaign -
'
paign in this statp , nnd'to nome ex
tent throughout the country , wo ik
ing methodically nnd with nltoroc
liabits , and many men wore inducoc
to contribute in Now York by tht
tight of this rather cheery-faced gen
tlunmn going to his office like an
other man to n bank , morning jiftei
morning.
TWO III8TAKKH. *
Arthur has made two mistake ?
since ho became Vice-President. The
drat was to endeavor to elect Crowloj
Senator ngainst the Governor's friend
Platt , in which ho was bcnten. The
next was the attempt to put G'oiiklinj ,
back in the Senate nfter ho resigned ,
where he was also beaten. These t\v <
Failures ought to have an instructive
inlluonco upon tlio Vico-Prosidoiit. It
is current belief that thny have af
fected his confidence to tlio extent
that ho will eeek out some Conkling ,
or other man of power , to advise with
if greater duties should devolve upon
'lim.

From Now York City who has evoi
