A Talk with Hamilton Fisli.
A Reminiscence of Over Forty Years.
We clip the following from the New
York Tnbune. Quite interesting read¬
ing. We condense a good deal:
MONROE AND JOHN TYLER.
“Are you old enough to he remember
President Monroe, when came to
New York City to spend the closing
years of his life?”
“Yes. You must remember that I
am just a septuagenarian. I was borr
in 1808. My father introduced Pres :
dent Monroe to his wife, Miss Gouver
neur, of Yew York.”
"You were not a Tyler man in any
respect?” “Not all. But I formed Tyler’s
at
acqaintance through my friendship for
his son Robert’s wife, who was a lady
of this city, and a very excellent one.
Mrs. Robert Tyler was the the mistress of
the Wnite House during widow¬
hood of the President. My acquain¬
tance with her took me there.”
“Was he not a man of mediocrity, or
below it?”
suasive, “I do not effective £hink so. public He speaker, was a per¬ like
most of the Virginia public men of that
day. havior, He and was had a gentleman, too, in be¬
a very respectable
mind.”
FILLMORE.
“Mr. Fish, were you a Silver Gray or
a Woolly Head, as the Whigs were
divided, about the time of your Gover¬
norship?” “I
never was a Silver Gray,” said
Mr. Fish, “nor did I belong to the Sew
ardites; I was against them, and was for
a good while Cabinet, a iriend of Fillmore. He
was in my as we may call it.
That is, he was my State Comptroller,
and kept that place for several months,
until he took his seat as Vice President.
When I wrote my first message, before
I had been inaugurated Governor, I
called the State officers, Treasurer,
Attorney General, Comptroller, etc.,
and read the message to them. In it I
took the position that all territory we
had acquired which had previously consideration in¬
hibited slavery was on no
to be subject to occupation by slave
property. Mr. Fillmore remarked
when I read this ; ‘ You ought to make
that stronger. That is the leading point
and I don’t think you have stated it
emphatically enough.’ I replied to
thia that as it was a State document, I
did not think it advisable to do more
than enunciate the view of the major¬
ity of the people of New York. Fill¬
more said again that he thought it
ought to be stronger. The others
agreed with me, and it was not quali¬
fied. Yet within two years Mr. Fill¬
more was turning the batteries of his
Administration on me, and slaughter¬
ing my friends, because I would not
applaud and indorse the Fugitive Slave
law.”
MARCT -
The conversation turning upon affairs
New York State many years ago,
Mr. Fish remarked that Silas Wright
was the ablest man whom he had known
. in New York, “No, but hesitating abler a moment
he said: not than Marey;
• Marey, I think, was the strongest man
we have had altogether. But Wright
wasnext.”
“How is it that you L. as Marey? a Whig think
so highly of William ’
I always admired his patriotism and
strength of character. It is true that
he was rather a relentless partisan,
but not for selfish results. responsibility Marey be
lieved that in party lay
the strength of administration. His
aims were lofty and well meant for his
times. In our foreigu policy he was,
according to my observation, the writer
of the very best dispatches ever indited
by an American Secretary. There There is is a a
nerve, meaning and vigor in his com
positions which always lifted up a mv
mind as a citizen to re ;ad bim in bis
fence ol our interests and of liberty, f
SAVANNAH, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 29 1879.
HENRY CLAY.
“Mr. Fish, which of the old Whig
leaders of thirty years ago was your
favorite—Clay, Webster, Corwin, or
who ?”
“Oh, Clay.”
“Do you think he holds the figure in
fame that his friends expected ?”
11 Clay,” describes said Mr. Fish, “was a tyrant.
That him—tyrant. While his
aims were lofty and patriotic, he allow¬
ed no contradiction on matters of
personal politics, and his own ambition
he regarded as a part of all reasonable
policy. But he was such a superb
leader ! I recollect that in 1835 I was
the chairman of the Whig committee
to receive Mr. Clay. He held a recep¬
tion at the City Hall, and it was my
duty to stand opposite him and intro¬
duce him to the throng of people. They
poured through that hall for four or
five hours, and he shook hands with
them all in his grand, sweet way. Said
I, ‘Mr. Clay, let me introduce you to
Mr. Hackett.’ Clay spoke to him with
that beautiful, deep voice which was so
pleasing to hear, and instead of going
on like the rest, the old fellow was
bound to say something, ‘Mr. Clay,’
he said, ‘aren’t you tired of shaking
hands with so many people ?’ ‘Oh, no,
sir,’ replied Clay, with his most benevo¬
lent face. ‘How can I be tired when
my fellow-citizens have been at such
trouble to call upon me ? Besides, Mr.
Hackett, you must remember that I am
from a State where they don’t tire.’
Those few words, spoken with such a
manner, had an extraordinary effect on
that man. He bawled out, ‘That’s so 1
Old Virginia never tires ! ’ And I
watched his course, and from that time
Grward he was a most enthusiastic
admirer of Henry Clay.”
blaine.
The ex-Governor, looking up at this
point, said :
‘ I think that James G. Blain has a
good deal ol the style and magnetism
of Henry Clay. There is an enthusiasm
for him in almost every section and
neighborhood quick, decisive that cannot and be repressed.
He is sharp in his
parliamentary work like Clay. His
address and smile and graciousness are
a good deal on Clay’s plan.”
fish’s idea of grant.
“What estimate of Grant is left on
your mind after that long experience of
eight years ?”
“Grant,” said his former Prime Min
ister, “is under-estimated in this coun
try. He is not only a man of ability
and firmness in character, and of un
wavering patriotism, but I never knew
any man more generous in his judg
ment, more open to conviction, and
who loved so little his own opinion
when it was shown to conflict with the
public that interests. make There him were that times
you had to see he
was wrong, and do it by argument. But
I have known him to change his views,
on both personal and political things,
when he had entertained them with the
greatest stubbornness.”
“Were your relations with the Presi- _
dent always mild and even ?”
“There were some differently things which the
President saw from my
view. Our intercourse, however, was
never rufiied by ill temper. I found
before I went into his Cabinet that he
was a man who meant to serve the
country and not himself alone, and I
addressed myself at times to that latent
element in his nature. I have said to
him : ‘General, you will not think to
rnorrow to-day—I on this question as you do
don’t bekeve you will.’ He
never repelled discussion, and listened
to every point advanced, even in favor
of men he did not like.”

GRANT AS A GENTLEMAN.
“I desire to ask you, Mr. Fish, if
the current criticism on General Grants
manners manners and and gentility is founded on
anything real?' 1
The Foreign Secretary looked up, as
glad to answer it, and said:
Gram was innately a gentleman. It
you were to place him in a certain cir¬
cle of society people, such as exist in
some of the exclusive parts of th s
city, it might be said there that he had
too little manner, and did net dance
nor flatter nor play the elegant creature
as well as he might. That is the view
some hold of a gentleman. But when
you come to the natural graces of the
heart, kindness and thoughtfulness, an
ingenuous and open spirit, respect for
good women and truthful men, there
was about him all of that which makes
the man. Many of his critics, more
fastidious, might have learned from
him that imputation is no part of a
gentleman. I repeat that he is under¬
estimated. I have in my mind a range
of nearly half a century of public men
whom I knew; he has as much of my
respect as any of them.”
CALEB CUSHING.
Did you find the late Caleb Cushing
a useful aruxiliary when you were Sec¬
retary?’’
“Highly so. His information was
extensive, his experience great, and he
was a cheerful worker tor the govern¬
ment.”
“Supposing he had been confirmed
as Chief Justice, would he have been
distinguished in that place ?”
“He would have made a capital
Chief Justice ! There would not have
bt.en one element of the partisan about
him, and he would have been a pure
Judge. I think that the public under¬
estimated him. It was said that he
had no convictions. I know that he
had convictions, and very strong ones.
He believed in government, as I do.
Mr. Cushiqg believed that this was a
government where the majority ruled,
and that having expressed its will, any
person was bound to labor in the gov
ernment, no matter what his party. If
you keep that in mind, you can see the
consistency of Cushing’s life. To the
public, however, he appeared to be
jumping about from party to party,
aT1 q generally in order to take place,
Yet, however employed by the govern
men t, the work was well done. Being
seu t to China by John Tyler, he made
that splendid treaty, the first made by
that government with a Christian
power.” The hesitated
Secretary here after a
question, and then said that to the best
°f treaty his China belief, had Cushing’s with was Christian the first
a
power. He added that a man who
could go into a vast closed empire like
that and conclude such a treaty, was
no common person,
“Next,” said Mr. Fish, “as Attorney
General for Frank Pierce, Cushing de¬
hvered some of the ablest opinions
ever given. They have been celebrated

ment. als0 served under President

grounds.
In the Senate, Mr. Davis, of Illinois,
presented a memorial signed by 3,190
persons, praying representing the sixteen States,
for establishment of a
bureau to collect statistics in regard to,
and to have special charge of, labor in¬
terests, and the appointment of a
special commission to inquire to what

and manufacture. Referred to the
Committee on Education and' Labor.
The Finance Committee of the
Senate, by a vote of five against four,
decided to recommend the reduction of
the tax on tobacco from the present
rate of 24 cents per pound add to 20 cents.
It was also decided to to the
House bill a provision to admit free of
customs duty all licorice paste and
licorice rolls, these articles being im¬
ported almost wholly for use in the
manufacture of plug tobacco, to-day in The
committee took no action re¬
gard to the tax on cigars and cigarettes
and snuff.
The Seriate again considered the bill
to pay Warren Mitchell for cotton

Albany News : The people in the
neighborhood of Pelham, Mitchell
county, are somewhat in a state of ex¬
citement on account of a terrible crime
which has just been committed in that
usually quiet community. On Saturday
last Sam Scarborough, who lived in
Decatur county, just on the edge of
Mitchell, and John Kierce, living near
Pelham, together with several other*
were going out from Pelham. Some
dispute arose between the two parties
named, about a trival matter, Kierce,
who was considerably under the in¬
fluence of liqnor, became very much
offended, and tried to borrow the a pistol
from his brother who was in party.
The brother rf fused to let him hava it,
when he (Kp rce) rode back about one
mile, to the residence of a Mr. Howell,
snatched a gua from a rack, and again
overtook the party, Efforts were made
to get the gun away from him, but he
promised and paid not to trouble further Scarborough, attention
they no to
him. After traveling along about one
mile Kierce made no demonstration,
until suddenly he rode up by the side
of Scarborough, planted the muzzle
against his side and fired, the ball
taking effect. The wounded man
walked a quarter of a mile after he
was shot, and on the following morn¬
ing died. No effort was made to arrest
Kierce until Sunday J evening, a and by J
that . time ,• , he . had j a fled •, to . parts . un¬
known. He is a married man and
about thirty years old. Scarborough
