He- uiiuu—Fleeing from tlie Fisk At Sing Sing—A Mecca—The liirtliplac-e of a Hurd—“‘Rises to explain"—"The House Where nn Ex-Governor First Saw tlie Eight”—The Eyre. Sraa Sino, August 28, 1871. My last was from Long Branch. After my interview with His Excellency, the President, the aspect there was blase-, be sides, Jim Fisk annoyed me. Go where I would, on the beach, promenades, or drives, Jim Fisk, in opera-house span gles and panoply, would turn up to offend my nice senso of propriety, for you must know that I do not like fast men or wo men; so I left. I am now at Sing Sing, not at the in stance of any j udicial persuasive eloquence as some are, but of my own volition. You know I have been something of a travel er in my time, and have a fondness for treading upon places distinguished in history, and of looking upon the shrines of the mighty. In early life I made a pilgrimage to Mount Vernon, and gazed with a venerative sort of cuwrap- turednoss, (a new aud good word) where Washington sleeps. But he’s “played” now, and you will not expect me to di gress from the thread of uty story and enlarge upon bis virtues. George Wash ington was all very well in his time. He strutted his brief hour upon tho stage of human affairs, and “handed in his checks.” The schoolboy idea about there being “giants in those days,” sounds well enough from a ,Sophomore stand-point, but no sensiblo fperson will give car to sucli tomfoolery, for we have the giants in this dHy and genera tion.

SAVE YOUR FRUIT Well, I was also once at tbo tomb of Napoleon, at St. Heluuu. No man is thorougly “traveled” who bus not been there. Neither should you expect from mo a learned biogruplii- col sketch of Napoleon. He is gen erally put down as a Frenchman, but was born in Corsica, as I am informed. — It is stated that there was some sort of a disturbance at Waterloo some years ago, ith which Napoleon had some connec tion, after which he was arrested by the )olice and carried to St. Helena, where 10 died. He was regarded as a very clev- sr man, as they told me at the grave yard where he wus buried, and was held in high esteem by the French people. I did not learn his age, or if lie was iu good circumstances ut the time of his death, or hail a life policy. And at Shakespeare’s grave I've been too. Tho “ Bard of Avon ” is the name he is known by in that immediate vicinity. Avon is a stream, and upon its banks ho wus born, which circumstance rise to explain” in order tlmt your readers may see the point, and that no error may occur. For instance, if tho thing should get mixed, and some writer sometime should, in al luding to Shakspeare, put it “Bard, of the True Georgian” tho effect would be awkward, and might mislead the youth of our land. Dr. Bard, tho talented ed itor of the True Georgian newspaper of your city, would not care to bo recog nized iu company sometime us tbo author of Shaksjieare’s works, lior would fcilioks- pearo, even though ho is dead, (which you know ho is,) care to bo charged with being editor of the True Georgian, or hav ing been Governor of Idaho under the administration of Gen. Grant. And this why I am particular in directing public attention to tills matter, “which the same would further rise to explain” as tho cause of my being here at Sing Sing. As before remarked, George Washing ton is dead, and so are Napoleon and Shakspeare; and I have visited their graves. It is impossible for me to carry out my dcsiro to visit the graves of all great men, for tho reason that some of them are not dead. Thus, being denied that sad privilege in tho case of ex-Gov- ernor Bard, I hastened from Long Branch do tho next best thing, which was to gaze upon the place of his birth. What more natural, therefore, than for me, whilst looking with eager eyes at the house wherein the ex-Governor of Idaho first saw the light of day, to associate in my mind the scenes and in cidents of other visits to consecrated 3 >ots. The “Bard of Avon” aud Dr. ard, of tho True Georgian newspaper, and ex-Governor of Idaho! Whut a coin cidence! Several hundred years, it is tme, intervened between them, but the world has had, and is having the benefit of the genius of each. The house here iu which Bard, theSing-Suigist, was born docs not differ materially from other houses in the village. The same remark applies to that in which Shakspeare first tuued his lyre; but the {lyre (to the com positor: don’t spell this word liar, and cause me to make a moonlight excursion to Sandbar Ferry,) was not tuned until ho became tho editor of a political paper, but there is a wonderful similarity of coincidental sameness iu the lives of tho two meu. Webster advises us that a “bard” is a “singer or poet,” from which circumstance it would seem that the sub ject of our sketch is eminently entitled, from the incident of both birth and name, to claim the advantage of Bhakspeare, being a double “singist,” and by virtue of being a “bard,” is u poet, tho latter entitling him to the lyre. (Compositor will again bo careful.) Shalupearo did not enjoy advantages like these, but was throwu wholly upon his own resources. The village boys havo got the whole sto ry put, and the old meu of the town sit in tuo .evening twilight and speak with •ride of tho greatness which their town ^as given to the world. The house is tho first object shown to the visitor upon his arrival. Seated at tlie hotel enjoying my morn ing cigar, aud glancing at the Southern telegrams in the Herald, I was waited up on by a committee of the City Council, with tho Mayor at their head, and inform ed that the house in xrhich IF. Samuel Bard was bom was ready for my exami nation, and that it would bo their pleas ure to conduct me to it. I tliankcd the com mittee, cordially, andaccompauied them* This attention is more particularly paid to gcntlcmeu and ladies from tho South. This is a standing committee of tho City Council, w hosejdutyit is to daily scan the hotel register and chaperone visitors. But if I am to get this in to-day’s mail I most close. Yours in baste. B.
