Boston, September 20.—One of tlio notables of the hub, and p«r- tlcularly at the prosent time, is James Mulligan, oLthe Mulligan letter fame. For several year* he has led a very retired life, and to little has been beard of him that many believed him dead. But he is some ways from death yet, and, though somowfaat in years, It still active. He can be seen almost any day at the United States ho tel, where he has lived a bachelor's life for nearly thirty years, in quiet comfort, ocoupying two Hob- Iy furnished apartments. Person ally he is about 6 feet 8 inches in height, of spare build, pale from confinement of years to the clerk’s desk, with brown eves and dark hair. He is quite, approachable and is yesterday. Rev.

If m | at tile coloroil Methodist cliurch | an interesting conversationalist. _ To lie sure the most of his conver sation during tho past eight years has been upon the subject of letters whieh Blaine wrote to him, bat the reason for this is that everybody who meets him always insists upon talking upon that subject. But Mulligan never tires of it—in foot lie has to say about just so much In reference to them every day or else he doesn’t feel like himself. His existence is mode somewhat unhappy by the repeated visits of correspondents and newspaper men, who seek to interview him and secure copies of the remaining letters in his possession. He manages, however, to keep them at a distance and refuses to say anything whatever upon the matter to them. His daily mail Is volum inous on the subjoot, but be never snswers any of tbe inquiries. Some of the letters be receives arc or a threatening nature. Several times he has been notified that lie would bo waylaid and assaulted when a good opportunity offered, so that ua rarely remains out at nights, and only when in company with gentlemen upon whom he can rely lor assistance and protection. He hates Qen. Butler cordially, but speaks well of Mr. Blaine, de nominating him “a good lellow.” no says that he would not bavo produced the letters In 18TC, at the time of the congressional in vestigation, bad it not been for the request of Blaine and the insinua tions that “he, a mere bookkeeper, would not daro testify against Blaine.” Mulligan was tho confidential bookkeeper of Jacob Btanwood, of this city, in 1851. In 1885 ho was employed by tho Adams sngsr re finery company, in wbioh Warren Fisher, Jr., was interested and to whom Mulligan was a confidential clork. J.stcr he was treasurer of the Olobe theater. As before stat ed, lie does little or nothing now, His pleasures aro few. Ho loves a good cigar, however, and de lights to go to the theater. He has a number of letters written, to him and to Mr. Fisher, which tbe auti-Blaino newspapers are eager to got. They are said to be as important ns those whieh have been mado public. Enormous sums of mouey bsvo been offered for theso letters, but he refuses to sell them. Qe has promised to give them to a Boston paper for publi cation shortly, as well as an inter view, which will contain all be knows about tbe matter. Ho has nothing to worry him but this, for bo is quite wealthy and lives as he cares to upon his income. Ho manages the estate, leit by tlie senior Fisher si his death and several others as well. Fisher thought a great deal of Mulligan, and appointed him a trustee of his property. Mulligan waa born in Dublin, is a devout Cstholio and a patriolio Irishman. In polities he is a demoorat. Savannah News: The Central railroad authorities have been in vestigating the losses sustained by the late boiler explosion rnd fire nl tbe cotton compress at KuCaula. The loss will be much less than first reported, io hot not anything like tho amount stated si tbe time. It is estimated that the damage to the property and the loss of cotton by fire will not reach $80,000, and a full adjustment of the damage may bring that amount down to $20,000. This mishap hat been used, it Is said, by Interested parties to bear tbe Central railroad stock. The Eufaula accident, however, is a very small affair, ts compared with the resources of that corporation. There is no known white repnb. llean in Jaokton county. noon train. A thunder cloud roso yesterday evening and gave us n nico littlo rain, which was very much needed.
