PES PORTRAIT OF JEFKEHSON.
II V JiUKS I'AIITON.
(From the January Atlantir.)
I .IctTer'nn was stripling of seventeen, tall,
. ruw-boned, frscUled, and i-andj-hnired,
when, in 17C0, he cuino to Williamsburg
from the fur west of Virginia, to enter the
i College of William and Mary. With his
i' largo feet and hands, bis thick wrhts und
prominent cbcek-bonei and chin, lie could
nolhnvubeeii accounted liniid'omc or grace
ful. Ho if described, however, us a fresh
! bright, healthy looking youth, ns straight
! ns a nun-barrel, sinewy and string, with
tlmt ulertnc of movement which comes
of early familiarity with saddle, gun, canoe,
minuet, mm country nance that sure,
elastic tread and eiuo of bearing which we
still observe in country-bred lads who have
been exempt from the ruder tolls of agricul
ture, while enjoying, in full measure, the
freedom and tliu sports of the country.
His teeth, too, wcru perfect which alone
redeems n countenance destitute of other
churni ; lii eye, uhloh rm of hnr.cl
grar, were beaming and expressive; and
his 'demeanor guvo assurance of a gentle
heart and sympattctic, inquisitive mind.
Such lads" eager Hnd unformed, still come
to college from honest country homes in re
gion where agriculture is carried on upon
a scale that allows aome lcituro to the
farmer's family, some liberality of ex
penditure, books, music, a tincture of art,
and liospitable Labits. How welcome, bow
dear, to Instructors worthy of them, are
such unhackneved minds in bodies un
impaired!
-
hurrr.itiNo is tiik west.
From the St. Joseph Oasette.J
Gcntlemin who havo rcccrtly been on
the prairies west of this city havo tho
most painful apprehensions of tho suffer
ings which muia havo been experienced
by tho people of tho now settlements
of western Kansas and Nebraska. Col.
Mason, chief engineer of tho St. Joseph
bridge, was at A bite's camp, In Marshall
county, whither ho was called on business
connected with tho stono being brought
from that placo for tho piers of thobridgo,
was caught by tho storm .of Friday, the
2uth imt., anil remained for eight days
unablo to reach tho city. Ho thinks there
wero full twelve inches of snow in that lo
cality. His own experience in traversing
n ulstance oi a mue aim nan iruiu mu
camp to tho railroad in tho midst, of tho
storm convinced him of tho terrors of the
prairii at f uch a time. Ilelng unuble to get
u train for St. Joseph ho bad to return to
camp. Disregarding tho desire of a com
panion to attempt to go straight from
point to point he followed a stream which
he knew would lead him to tho shelter ho
sought, nnd this, ho is certain, saved him
from being lost on th" prairie, a peril
which all who aro acquainted witli u snow
storm on tho plains will understand. No
mortal could sco or keen his eonric.
Col. Mason had heard of many reports of
loss of life, and of scores ot cases on tno
Solomon, as to tho truth of which ho can
only express an opinin bssed upon tho
probabilities for what ho saw. Urcnt nnd
terrible suffering, beyond all question, has
been cr.durcil uy wayiaring pcopio nun
new and scantily provided for settlors in
shut remote and now isolated region.
The authorities of tho ttuto of Kansas
nro iiinvliir. to allevlato tliu sufferings of
tlionrairic9. but succor ns to mnny will,
alas I como too late. It is howover propor
that enoreotic effort should not bo abated
till full Investigation bo made in all tho
now settlements and nil the relief possible
rendered.
AN EXC1T1NO BUFFALO HUNT.
rPrnm tti1 Aft vei.wnrt Ii. Knn. Times.)
Senator Spragtio visited Kansas n few
weeks ago, anu, iiko an outer eastern vim
tors, wanted to poo tho bull'ulo on his na
ttvo heath. Accordimrlv. Ueninmln Ak
era. Ksn.. of this citv. cot UP a party, and
with tho senntor went out to tho buffalo
country. A few miles from Fort Wallnco
they found tho bisons in thousands, and
llm hunters ''went In." Mr. Akcrs Bintrlod
out nn old pairbtrch of tho herd, chased
him few miles, and after a fow successful
shots brouoht him down. Aftor his own
gnmo wns secure, ho commenced looking
around for tho rest of tho party.
Tho senator hnd also singled out
an old bull, and driven him npnri from tho
rest of the herd, nnd wns in a little rnvino
nbout two miles distant from Akcrs. but
in plain view. Tlio bullnlo had been
wounded, and showed fight. Tho Senator
wouVl pursue him for u short distance, but
would then bo com milled lo turn his
horse's bond in tho other direction, and
... .el.. . .fit . . .
get out oi me wiij oi mu ninmtenca animal;
onco, In wheeling suddenly, bis horse fell,
nnd tho bull win right upon him in nn
iristnnt. AkoMtnyg this wnonooftho
closest cutis bo over tiw so close, Indeed,
n so leitvo no doubt In his mind that
there would very soon bo a necessity
for ri apccinl Senntorial election in Khodo
Island "to fill vacnncy;" but Just in tho
nick of time tho vnliant senator rcgnincd
his sent In the saddle, and was olT liko tho
wind, bis horso being stimulated by a
sharp " punch " from tho bull's horns. It
scctns Unit Mr. Sprnguo bad pursued tho
animal closely, llred sovcrnl shots upon
him, wounding him hevcrcly, but not fa
tally, and that his ammunition had then
given out; -Mr. Akcm, comprehending
the situation, cumc to bis as!itanco nnd
reinforced hi in with n fow rounds, when
tho bull was promptly brought down.
Tliu senator brought in with him tho head
of the nnimitl, and is having It "cured"
to tako homo ns a trophy of hit skill nnd
prowess ns a bulla lo hunter.
A COllltA IN I.OVE WITH A WOMAN.
A very extraordinary and imtonisbing
incident was lately reported to havo oc
curred a few miles from Heyporc, the par
ticulars of which are as follows :
A native female of a very attractive nr
pearimce, of the carpenter cast. - "l'l'o
sweeping tho yards of her l- board
a hissing noise behind he" , As she turned
to ee.i what it was, ,ou,l1. t0,1'" l,!"ori
a largo cobra P-"ancing toward her. ile
foroshu .d time to call nny ono to her
,lt.i.iiiiicc, or even to go from the place,
tho serpent darted at her liko lightning,
and coiled round onu of hor legs, and in
the twinkle of an eye darted higher till it
brought in open hood in contact with her
face, there moving it to and fro liko a
screen. In this frightful position she had
to remain fur nearly ono or two days with
out being able to lie or sleep. None but
females could approach her to feed her
with milk and pluntniri, when tho cobra
turned its bead to one sido and gave her
ample time to nourish herself; but on any
man stepping into the compound tho co
bra would hiss fearfully and tighten its
hold around her body lit such u manner
as to maku her feci breathless. Many
wore the conjuror who came to relieve
her from tbelrightful condition, but none
succeeded in removing the hugi serpent
from her person, till latterly h Nair was
brought from the interior, w'lio, after per
forming certain charms and spell', suc
ceeded in disentangling tho poor woman
of her venomous lover. The snake quietly
crept back into tho bush whence it came,
and the woman is doing well. Tho above
wonderful occurrence is now n general
talk among the nutives of thai place.
WASHINGTON (lOSSIP.
(Washington Cor. New Orleana Tunes.)
Tho Fishes nro regarded hero n. the
crtMC dt la crone of eccietv. To preserve
the air of exclusive refinement against the
crowds of politiclhtis they are forced to en
tertain, there is a cold formality that
nearly freezes people. Hamilton himself
is a coarso looking man, but Mrs. F. is a
model in her way she is a well-preserved,
stately, old lady, and dres-es In exquisite
taste ," und it requ.re more nerve on the
part of nn average congressman to go
through a re 'option, than to catch tho
eye of tho ffcakerand luce a turbulent
house. Quit- a number of blunders wero
woven into stories last winter on tho part
of national luw-makcrs, who ventured to
approach the frigid zone of bieh focictv.
The Hon. Fernando Wood was on the op
posite corner, nnd although hi' liou.-u is ns
gorgeous os a pHlace. the iioor fellows used
to rush in there to recover their wlnti nmi
presence of mind. The Hon. lien Butler
is on tho opposite corner with another
pa1a:o that was a house of refuge. Hut
the unhappy neophytes never fairly re
covered until thev found themselves In
the warm congenial atmosphere of Mr.
Speaker' Minimi's hospitnble mnnsion.
This last did not extend to reporters of
the press. Mrs. Blaine is a severe lady,
who holds tho reporter in sovereign con-
tempt, nnd does not care to conceal it. A
story Is told of her catching one of this
sort, nnd, forcintr him to n seat in the hall,
gave him n piece of her mind that whs
not a pleasant piece, out i nave no aouot
was well ueserveu.
