Read in another place the very able, honest, just and patriotic letter of ex Gov. Seymour. Such a letter stamps, hiru a statesman-, thinker, and patriot* and such sentiments should elevate such men to the Presidency. Gov. Seymour views facts and history as a statesman should, and comments accordingly. EDITORIAL NOTES The Chinese question is now fairly before Congress, the House Committee on education and labor having present¬ ed a report on the subject. The Secretary of the American Iron and Steel Association, in his anuual report, after giving statistics for last year says : “The old year, take it all in all, was a more active and more pros¬ perous year for the American iron trade than either 1876 or 1877. Two brothers in Groveland, Micb., Samuel and James Wilkins, are twins, and were born in l79d. They married sisters on the same day, and have had a happy married life of it on adjoining farms these many years. They are so much alike they can hardly be told apart. When one has a fever or any sickness the other is sure to be similarly and simultaneously affected. A remarkable legacy was that be¬ queathed by Capt. Philip Thicknesse, in his will found July 24, 1793 : “I leave my right hand to be cut off after death to my son, Lord Audley, and I desire it may be sent him, in hopes that such a sight may remind him of his duty to God, after having so long abandoned the duty he owed to a father who once affectionately loved him.” LOCAL NEWS. Pleasure Ahead. The Oglethorpe Fire Company had a meeting last night and wound up the business of the association ; surrendered their charter, appointed the a committee celebration to make arrangements for of the 32d anniversary, and then ad¬ journed sine die . On the twelfth of next month the Benevolent Association will be organ¬ ized under the new charter, and the members will celebrate the inauguration with a grand supper, and such pleasant exercises as are suitable to the occasion. Pugilistic Encounter. About half past nine o’clock last night, two persons of color, and that color black, had a personal altercation near the Lutheran Church on President street. The controversy arose about a “yaller changed, dog.” A Jew blows were ex¬ but a few attaches of a fire company hearing the scuffle repaired to the scene and by arguments and a little force separated them. One of the parties was a well known barber in the city. The other was a waiter in a prominent hotel in the city. An Eloquent Lecture. The Theatre last night was filled from pit to dome with a cultured and appreciative audience, assembled there to Lear Capt. George A. Mercer deliver his piomised lectuie on Little Things.

Tiu lecture was an ex cellently delivered and scholarly piece of literature and was appreciated as well for its intrinsic meat as a work of art as tor its eloquent, and gracetul presentation. It was resplendent with brill iant metaphor*, clad ;» the richest language J' I w - ;.i>e intellectual treat to those fortunate enough to hear its delivery. We can confidently assert that the I ect til'd laff night was of more practical Importance, was suggestive of more . aa more interesting, anything enter* of tainingand insructive than a like nature ever heard in this city. 1 The charitable application of the proceeds of the same was highly com- well mendable and spoke exceedingly for the man, the orator and the human itarian. The lecture was worthy and de serving of being placed among the ar chives of the city and reflected renewed credit and lustre on the already es tablished reputation of this accomplish ed, talented and generous gentleman. C aleb Cushing’s Career. Some Remarkable Anecdotes and Incidents of His Busy Life. [Boston Herald.] Caleb Cushing was never on confi¬ dential terms with anybody. To begin with, he was in youth as ambitious as Napoleon, and be elevated himself to the position he occupied at his death by sheer force of physical application. The ability to work was his only great gift In legal and political circles he was the parallel of Bayard Taylor in the latter’s power ot literary application. He never curried favor with the shift¬ ing administrations, «o his friends say. He first made himself known, and then made himself necessary. He was one of the most extraordinary men of this age, for this reason. He bad a memory probably unequaled by any man alive, He could read sixteen hoars a day for a month, and never forget an impor¬ and tant fact obtained n that time, this facility made Federal him the profoundest this authority on law in country. His memory and his power of work were the secrets of his success. As an illustration of this the follow¬ ing anecdote is told : In 1853, or thereabout, he was appointed chief jus¬ tice of the supreme bench of Massa¬ chusetts. He was out of practice and, to use his own words, “very rusty.” He set to work, however, and in nineteen days had ready sixty volumes on dif¬ ferent laws—questions of precedent, laws of contracts, laws of exchange, etc. About seventeen volumes were de¬ voted to Massachusetts law; twice as many more were made up of reports, and the reading was altogether ex¬ tremely varied. Now for an example of his power of work : Between the ages of 27 and 54 he never knew what it was to be sick. He was accustomed in Washington to get to work in the morning at 5 o’clock and labor tremendously through meal hours, and without taking a rest until 11 at night. Then he would smoke a cigar, get into bed and read history un¬ til he fell asleep. In one winter he finished, in this manner, thirteen octavo volumes of scientific travel and recent history. While attorney-general he w’ould have his meals brought to him and laid on his writing desk. His custom often was to eat the entire meal without looking at it or resting from his work. Friends or business associates during the time when he was trying to adjust the Hud¬ son Bay company’s claims, and often on ordinary occasions, would find him buried in writing paper or law books at four o’clock in the morning, he hav ing been at his desk for twenty-three hours without rest. Caleb Cushing was a man of strong passions, animal and intellectual ; there was probably not a moment in his whole waking life when he was not thinking profoundly. He smoked like a steam engine, and as though there were utility in tobacco. He used pro¬ fanity to impart intense emphasis to some angry expressions, but never idly or meaninglessly. He drank socially, but made the occasion invariably bear fruit by starting friend. an argument or mak¬ ing a business No man ever gained his confidence; he never gushed. His great life-long ambition made him perpetually cold and reserved; at times lie relaxed himself, and laugned and called men by their last name, but it was to refresh himself for harder la¬ bors. Mr. Cushing at home has never been much of a sensation During his business and political life Newburyport rarely saw him, and since his enforced studies retirement he has continued his k.pt himse f shut up much of the Mr. Cushing had an understanding with the rest of the family that they should never enter his study for any purpose, even to dust it. He would never allow a woman to take care of his offices in Washington, either, pre¬ library ferring to do the work himself. His was large aud miscellaneous; full of histories, works of travel and many novels. His law library at Newburyport particularly was large, but his friends say not important, was a great novel reader, and read iest everything in covered this line from the trash yellow novel, through the light aud heavy French schools to the profound novels work on psychology that the of to-day are getting to be. He has always had a passion for novel reading, would and unless extremely busy ready keep one at his side all day long, to pick it. up at his first spare moment. He could nut converse on light, social topics, but would stop on the streets and join in a discussion with strangers if a word was dropped while j he was passing on any profound subject ! or He indicating knew' - a sober topic of discourse* pcodia and could everything in the encyclo talk about it, always j quoting authorities. He once talked i I four hours with a stranger, who in his hearing said that he believed in phre nology. Once the publishers of the first ! edition of Webster’s Dictionary sent ! him from Springfield a presentation critical j copy, (complimentary, requesting in return of course). a j * notice ' Cushing, having plenty ol leisne time, glanced at the lirst, page and found numerous mistakes ; he read the second page ami found as many more, He read the entire book, and wrote to the publishers that if they expected that he was going to write a comph mentary notice of a book with five thousand errors in it they were mistaken. The publishers, his extraordinary of course, found fault with statement, and wrote back to the effect that if he would prove this to the satisfaction of Professor Porter, of Harvard, the editor of the dictionary, they would believe him. Angry at this imputation, this extraordinary man read the gigantic book over again, and Wiott Out tile O.UUU Kfinn mi. mietalrps ram O and an i then uie I mailed them to Professor Porter. Numerous anecdotes might yet be re kted about Mr. Cushing, but the old excuse Of ‘ space iorblds it must oe repeated. Mr. Cushing leaves no direct heirs. His property in Newburyport is estimated to be worth §80,000. Besides this he owns large tracts of land at St Anthony's Falls, in Virginia, and oth' r places. His total wealth is variously estimated at from §300,000 to $800,000. An example of his great energy and force of character is contained in the following wonderful story : He was ap¬ pointed Minister to China at a time when there was no treaty between the Celestial England. Empire There and any country, ex¬ cept were no steam¬ boats in those days. This extraordi nary man, with the marvelous knowl edge of international law, crossed the Atlantic, went up the Mediterranean, journeyed through Europe and India to China, established a treaty, and made the reluctant pig-tails accept it, came back across the Pacific, landed at San Francisco ; went to Mexico, and helped to smooth diplomatic matters there, returning to Washington therefrom. in 18 months after his departure He then visited bis home at Newbury¬ port. The English ambassador, on coming back to England from courted, his suc¬ cessful mission in China, was feted, and “addressed” by all the com¬ mercial people of England ; yet, al¬ though the English complained that Cushing's American treaty was much more favorable, not the slightest notice was taken of him by the merchants of Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York, or Boston, as he passed through these cities on his way home, so bitter was the feeling against John Tyler, who appointed him. Cushing had the ad¬ justment of our relations with the United States of Columbia to handle some years ago, and found it necessary to go there ; and, although nearly 70 years old at the time, he traveled 500 miles on horseback in search of that wandering government. The tobacco manufacturers of Dur¬ ham, N. C-, boHght $28,000 worth of stamps in one week. Twenty-on* children have died re¬ cently in one neighborhood of diptheria in North Carolina. On Tuesday a magnificent buck was shot within a few’ yards of where Gov. Hampton was hurt. An Iowa paper gives a thrilling ac count of the effort of a young man to take home a widow and three swarms of bees at the same time in a wagon. An old toper, hearing some ladies discussing the wonderful fact that a baby chn say “No,” several months before it can say “Yes,” remarked: i < Well, ladies, you see that’s ’cause bab¬ ies ain’t never asked if they’ll take somethin’ ” The death of Caleb Gushing leaves Jefferson Davis the only surving mem¬ ber of the Cabinet of Franklin Pierce, which went into office in 1853. Vice President, King died soon after his elec¬ tion, making David R. Atchison, Sena¬ tor from Missouri, Vice President pro iem. The task of walking 2,700 quarter miles in as many quarter-hours, which Mrs. Anderson is reported as having concluded at 11 o’clock on the 13th, may be looked upon as one of the most arduous feats ot pedestrianism on record. A Baltimore clergyman thus de¬ scribes a Baltimore Inly, a fashionable one: “Everything she could get on, pinnsd on, hooked fussed on, she had upon her. She was all up every which way. What can a man do who is caught in such a trap ? When he is once caught he is gone.” Mew Advertisements. I UNISHED ROOMS TO RENT on rea sonable terais. 60 BRYAN' sT„ »od-jan 17-lm Below Lincoln.
