MAMMY YET.
After a sojourn licrc of nearly five
months, 1 find this place so wretched
ly healthy (nobody die, here) that the
physicians, even, “have thrown their
physic to the dogs,” and gone to
trucking.
The friend with whom I'm located
says lie's been down here over live
years, and lie lias never known of a
single death in all that time; so that
it may he truly called a second or
miniature edition of Heaven. Xo
occupation here for cither 1 lector or
Undertaker! About two miles above
here is the great healing Suwannee
Spring. I went out there last Sun
day, and found dear old Georgia
pretty well represented. There is a
fine roomy hotel, pretty well patron
ised, although private parties have
also set up their own tents, anil with
nn eye to the main ehaiiec, cat and
drink themselves. The water of the
Spring is highly impregnated with
sulphur and limestone, smelling
loudly of the former article—said to
he used so extensively by the old gen
tleman wot keeps lire office in the
hot latitudes! The water emerges
out of the solid rock, quite warm, as
it comes boiling and gushing out,
and is quite buoyant and transparent.
There are regular bathing hours for
the ladies; the he filings of the man
liile gemler falling heir to the resi
due of the twenty-four. Some won-
b»VR,h««.j
ters. both externally and internally,
and no one goes away without feel-
g greatly rejuvenated anil restored
to health.
The crops, as a general thing, are
very promising. The oat crop, an
exception only, has hern rather a
failure. Cotton — long staple —is
thriving splendidly, and promises a
large yield. Corn also bids fair lo
beau abundant one; whilst potatoes,
peas and goobers will turn out so
eneronsly as to gladden the hearts
of the farmers.
Whilst the truckmen, who are fa
mous of producing early vegetables,
have already reaped a rich harvest.
Onlv think of eating roasting ears in
April, and strawberries ripen here
from January to October. The eas
iest and best way to raise si raw her
ries is with a spoon.
The temperature here, though tol
erahlv hot throngli the summer days,
moderates and becomes cool toward
_ iglit, rendering sleep pleasant and
comfortable, unlike the heated term
in the North anil East, where the
thermometer gets up to ninetyel-ev
degrees above Kahrcntosb, (not
the “oiimensliionable” thing, and ex

Friend Moore buried his clothes nine
days, then got a nigger to resurrect
'em, and they were still so redolent
the sweetest peiTiime, so iilTcusive
the olfactories that lie sold 'em to
the before mentioned darker on a
hurt credit, and I regret to say that
that mean son of Ham added ir.stdl
injury by folding his tent, and,
like the Arab, stole otrhetween lights
anil never paving our friend for
those sweet scouted does; so that

New York Herald Interview. |
Ex-Governor Samuel J.Tililen, rid
ing from Yonkers lo New York yes
terday afternoon, said to a Herald
reporter to whom he was speaking
about politics: “I never was ambi
tious for the Presidency. I did not
earn for the nomination when it was
ivrn me in St. Louis. At. Hint time
1 oili-red it lo another limn.'’
“Who was the man?”
“M r. Seymour.”
“Did you not seek Ibo tiomiiialioii
atlhohanils.il' Ihe (.'iiieinnati eon
nlion which has just nominated
Hancock ?”
Xo, I did not seek it.”
Did you eii'ertain expectations
that it would be tendered you?”
I felt since the election of 187(1
that I needed rest. 1 feel so now. 1
mi not in good health, although 1
have no organic disease. With three
mouths’ rest 1 will be all right.”
Do you allribiile your illness to
your labors in the interest of the
Democratic party?”
I attribute it to overwork, the
work of fifteen years. During all that
time I have been trying to find a
place to stop. I have not been able
to do so. I will not take the rest I so
innch need.”
Were not the labors of the cam
paign so arduous that they were a
considerable strain on vour health?”
They were nrdlloiis’iiidccil. I did
not assume them from any desire lo
l.c President of the United Slates. It
out a sense of duty. I never
sought public office to gratify any
desire of my own for elevation, 'j
did not, ns I just said, care anything
about the nomination in the first in
stance. I was out riding when the
St. Louis convention was considering
my name. The dispatch that-brought
tlic news of my nomination lay for
two hours unopened on my library
table, although I knew it contained
news of the action Hie convention bail
taken.”
But you went into tlic campaign
with all your heart anil soul, Gov
ernor ?”
Yes; I was anxious for a Demo-
,r »V/oyfitr 1 ttcrtfvrm. 1 Hmm-ita <?
been nominated and elected this
time?”
“I do. Rut I did not feel able to
enter upon five years of hard exhaus
tive labor. My friends wanted me
to conduct the’campaign ntysclf. I
could not do that.”'
Did that wish on your pari form
an issue between you that leil you to
decline to go before the convention
as a candidate ?”
“It might have been a considera
tion had it not been a fact that I had
previously made up my mintl not to
be a candidate. My decision to that
effect was immovable long before the
question was at all mooted.”
“Were you not besought be' y
friends even at the last moment to re
voke the decision ?”
“Yes, I was telegraphed to fre
qucntly, asking me to consent to al
low my name to go before the con-
entioii." •
“If your success before Hie conven
tion had been assured in advance
mild you have changed your
mind?”
‘No.”
•The letter of declination that yon
wrote to the New York delegation,
Governor, lias received various inter
pretation on all sides. I am to infer
from what yon say that a belief much
entertained in some circles that it
had a double meaning has no founda
tion ?” , .
“If it lias been construed to mean
anything else than what is set forth
in the words in which it is_ written
the press is tablame. My friends in
the convention knew perfectly well
that it meant just what it sot forth.—
The New York delegation were ad
vised of it. The last thing Mr. Daniel
Manning, Hie chairman of the delega
tion, did before lie left for Cincinnati
was to call on tncanil receive the ver
bal endorsement of wliat is coiitain-
“Yct lie telegraphed you on the day
of the nomination, asking again that
VOU revoke vour decision, and assur
ing you of his faith in your success,
did lie not?” .
“Yes. My answer to his dispatch
has been published. I received many
dispatches like that.”
The following is a copy of the dis
patch which Mr. Tililen referred to:
“Junk 21,1880,—Hon. Daniel Man
ning, Grand Hotel, Cincinnati, Ohio—
Received your telegrams and many oth
ers containing like information. My ac
tion was well considered anil is irrevoca
ble. No friends must Is; allowed to cast
a doubt on my motives or my sincerity.
Samuki. J. Tildes."
In this connection,” Mr. Tihlen
added, after a pause, ‘I do not think
I am called upon to reiterate my own
words. Do you ? They should be, m
the light-of the pressent situation,
convincing.” _ ,, , .
“Do you approve of tlic choice
made by tlic convention?”
“I approve of it entirely and with
out reserve.”
“Then you think thatof all the men
regularly placed in nomination be
fore the convention General Hancock
is the best ?”
“Most assuredly. There was, be- war.
fore tlie nomination, much talk of
Field, 1’avnc and a score of others
standing 'in tlie position of your re
siduary legatee. Did General Han
cock, after all, occupy that much dis
cussed relation?”
“Indeed, 1 cannot he expected to
explain many tilings in polities. LVr-
tninlv mine of those of which I have
on knowledge whatsoever. So many
lliings are said, you know.”
“To put the question more ilireelly
then. Governor, was Hancoi-k the
mail von favored for the nomina-
lion ?”
Yes, he was.”
