With G of the CivilWar By Mrs. Gen. Pickett for NO. 15.—PRESIDENT CHESTER A. ARTHUR. ‘GROUP of Virginians were on the stands yi s at Old Point Camfort, and Mrs. Herndon of TFredericksburg was telling us a2 romance when we were joined by Mr. Arthur. fresh from his defeat at the hands of President Hayes and Secretary Sherman Knowing that he was an ardent lover of stones of all grades, from the com mon varleties along the roadside to the diamond from the treasure mines of the wonld, we showed him the amethysts weé had found 'in the sand. He admired them and bezan to talk of stones, taking a chamois skin bag of jewels from his wocket and pouring them upon his open palm, saying: “It 13 a desecration to put them into Jjeweller's settings and wear them as clothing. They should live for their own beauty’s sake.” “But you camnot go around pouring them from a bag upon your outstretched hand,”” T said; “and if you carry them about in your pocket no one can ses them, and all the enjoyment they might give is lost in the darkness.'' “At any rate, I can have some of these pretty onea you have found set you to wear."” ‘He toek some of our amethysts and put them in his pocket and went on to talk of the fancied origin of varfous precious stones, saying as he selected a beautiful diamond from the collection he heid on s hand “This was 2 drop of dew #n the heart of a rose until the sungod roving by looked on the mose, till & shaft of light from his eve plerced the sifttering dewdrop and filled it with all the shimmering colors -that go to make up light Then the rose asked him to make It last forever for her sake. It is the em of innocence because it reflects all the celors of.life and retaine its purity. “I suppose,” sald Mrs. Herndon, “that sapphires are bits of biue that came down when the stars first broke through the night sky.’” He accepted the susgestion and taking up a Perfect peard he held it up to the light and continued: s “Thip is the tear that the Angel of Pity shed for the sins and sorrows of the world.” ““The t@paz,” said one, ‘‘muat be a bit wheattered from the gold dars of sumset.” “In some countries’” observed Mr, Arthur, “jewels are idois to be wor- shipped with solemn ceremonies. To me they are varying glints of the light of God. The little gray bits of rock are as full of light ‘as thelr more flashing sisters, but they must have the earthy masque polished of so that their soul can shine through.” From that he went on to talk about Sowers: ““They are jewels in which Iife iz further developed and we see them grow and biossom. And then we think they fede away and die. But when the plooming time comes &gain, there they are In all, thelr beauty; the ruby in the red Tose, the pearl In the illy, the diamond in the orchid, the topas in the daffodil, the emerald in the follage. And these little sunny amethysts are thie crocuses that come to tell us that spring is here.” Something in his volce and Dbearing reminded me of home and I remarked «“Myr. Arthur, one would think that you were a ‘Southern gentleman, your manners are so Southern.’” He repHed: “You know I married a Virginia girl. 1 was a Vermont school teacher, and € may be indebted to her for some of my Southern manners.’” “And Vermont and Virginia had not even a ripple in war times?’ “No; we agreed never to discuss sectional topics and never to mention slavery and I am careful to vell with modest silence the fact that my first im- portant brief was in the Lemmon case, in which I defended the right of a slave to ltberty when his foot was once on free moll. In fact, for much of the success of my early practice I am h\d‘hltd to the dusky people, for a little later I won a victory in ple: off 3 street car in New York because sh In a conversation with Mr. Willlam Travers and close of his administration Mr. Arthur said: “I came into the Presidency when even some of my warmest and best friends did not give me their confidence. I was considered a mere politician They doubted my ability and ™y stralghtforwardness. I tried to make them see me as I Was in my own heart and to give an administration that could be looked at through a maguify- ing glass. I had Deen charged with abuse of power to serve political ends and I wanted to prove that I was of umswerving integrity.” He was always exquisitely groomed, miost antistic, polished and cultured, unselfisn, of unswerving honesty, and with a kindliness that went out to all sufferers.
