A MISSISSIPPI STEAMBOAT MAN INTERVIEWS THE PRESIDENT ABOUT AN OFFICE, Capt. Thomas Crumner, an old Mississipp! river steamboat engineer, from New Orleans, is an applicant for ghe vacant supervisorship of bollers in one of the Louisiana districts, Yes- terday he called upon the President, in com- Pany with Hon. E. John Ellis, and formally made applieation forthe appointment, After heating him the President inquired: at ee a are youa mechanical engineer and nis “Yes, sir.” mded the blunt old riverman, “and, Mr. Presi lent, if you will allow me, I can construct an engine that will pull me into the office T am seeking.” “What power would you suggest, captain, for such an engine?” asked the President, “Well,” replied the captain, meditatively, “when 1 left New Orleans 1 thought a two-ho: power engine would pull me in, but since com- ing to Washington and talking with numerous other office-seekers I have come to the conclu- sion that it will take a sixty-horse power.” The President laughed as if he thought the captain was about right. Russia in the Pacific. THE CZAR SAID TO BE LOOKING AFTER CRUI- SERS TO HARASS BRITISH COMMERCE. Quite a number of well-built, speedy and handy ilttle vessels ‘are engaged in the sugar trade between San Franciseo and the Sandwich Islands, Most of them were built by Claus Spreckels, the Sandwich Island sugar king. ‘These vessels have attracted the attention of Russian officials, because of their evident use- fulness in case of a war between Russia and England in attacking the English commerce in Japanese and Indian waters. It is said that they could overhaul the P. and O. steamers Without difficulty. It is understood that the Russian minister has made over- tures to a naval officer = who is Well acquainted with Pacific waters and the vessels that ply on them, to secure his services In picking up and purchasing such available vessels as he can find on the Pacific coast, and have them conveyed toa certain point. There being no declaration of war now etween England and Ru the service could be performed without violation of friendly rela- tions and without the cflicers resigning from the navy. In case war should be declared, how- ever, it would cost him his commission, and it isa question whether the game is worth the candle, er vee Amusements. Forp's OPERA liovss.—Mr. D. G.

The only true partof what amused the tables is that I was of the 4tg intantry when Grant joined it, it we sel d together in lose ofthe Mexiean war and subsequently met in the street at St. Louis for oniy one moment. and that a very satisfactory one toremember. Ne ing else meeting in St, Louis had any foundation in fact or truth or utterance of mine, The part of it which 1 omit is too contemptible to repeat here. and though I have denied it as effectualiy as I could, otherwise, I have never done so in print. Tshould like, therefore, as it seems proper at this time, ‘to give a reminiscence of the general in’ time prior to the rebellion such as will be an effectual denial that I can be au- thority for anything inimical to him or disa greeable for his ear to hear. In those days I met him at balls, parties, bouts, routs, dinners and suppers—pnblic an rivate—drinking places, clubs, card parties, nil fights, horse races, theaters, bailes, fandan gos, churches, in peace, in war, in the industri- ous labors of preparation and the sanguine pros- ecution of the thickest of the fight. In all of them I saw but one kind of Grant. “I saw him elated with success and festivity, downeast with disaster und regret, in the most engaging and duilest times tie earth affords, under the in- fluence ofevery human emotion, Every time Isaw the same identity, everywhere the same characteristics, I never saw him but he was thoroughly, clearly, entirely, seli-possessed and proper to himselrin word, in’act, inmanner, in appearance. ‘The effect of living in such associ- ation with him the length of time I did, was to give me the idea of a persistent tone of iniform self-management without even an interruption to an apparent singleness of purpose utterly de void of guile; of one who never did ai low or small, or which, when correctly eli ated, would not harmonize with the delineat of the most upright and honorable personal character ofa gentieman of good taste. W1 Isay gentleman, I donot mean agreat Christ gentleman like Leo X, but a grand, natural g tleman like the viear of Waketield. I conclud by saying that I would be most happy to be cross-questioned on this, under oath. Hesny Prrxce, Brigadier General by Brevet U.S. Anny.
