ercionist, Davis seized him, and with a
vigorous push tumbled him backward on
the floor, while the honest son of Vulcan,
justly indignant, hurled his hammer at the
" president," but missed him. Davis then
attempted to seize a gun, and asked to be
bayoneted. The guards presented bayo-
nets, and the Captain feared he might rush
upon them, and so ordered the guard to
fall back. The Captain then called in four
stout men and ordered them to lay Davis
on his back, which they did, the prisoner re-
sbting with almost preternatural strengtli,
es8a3ring .to deal a thwack now to the right
and anon to the left, and writhing in their
grasp while the blacksmith hammered on
the rivet with a will. When placed in
his chair again, Davis looked in utter de-
spair upon his manacled limbs, and was
unable, even with his well known strong
will, to conceal his emotions. The black-
smith's medicine had the desired effect, so
that the great fugitive became compara-
tively docile, far less defiant, but more de-
pressed, and the irons were subsequently
removed.

It was feared he would starve himself
to death, and, complaining of being sick,
be expressed a wish, one day, to see a phy-
sician. The officer of the day, after con-
sulting the proper authorities, told his pris-
oner that a doctor would be allowed him.
*• What physicians have you here ? " asked
Davis of Captaiu Tetlow, the officer on



duty. Captain T. mentioned the names
of Doctors Bancroft, Janeway, and Craven.
" Where is Dr. Bancroft from ? " queried
Davis. "From Connecticut,** answered
the Captain. "Don't want him, then.
Where's Janeway from ? Do you know
where Craven is from ? " continued Davis.
" Yes, he is from New Jersey." " Let me
have him then." Tlie doctor — a strong
Union man, by the way — found nothing
seriously wrong with the prisoner's physi-
cal condition. The real reason of Davis's
desire for a physician became apparent
when his noontide meal was served to him.
He who deliberately starved to death
thousands of Union prisoners was fed on
the regular army rations, precisely of the
same quantity and quality as that served
to the soldiers at Fortress Monroe. He
threw the soup, bread and meat from him,
exclaiming, in a loud and angry voice,
that he ^ was not accustomed to such living

and would not put up with it" The phy-
sician prescribing a little different diet, it
was served accordingly.

at the sale by a loyal man, and by him
presented, as a souvenir, to President John-
son. The coffee or tea set in question is
a perfect minature or fac simile of a rail-
road locomotive, with tender detached;
the locomotive boiler receives the coffee or
tea, makes and discharges it through a
spiggot, a steam whistle indicatLig when the
tea or coffee is ready. The boiler of the loco-
motive is of porcelain, and the figure of the
fireman, of the same material, appears on
the locomotive vigorously ringing the bell,
— the breakfast, dinner, or supper bell, as
the case may be. The tender, which is
an admixture of brass and other metal,
carries the sugar in an elegant silver cais-
son, with goblet for cognias and stunning
small cut glasses. The sides of the tender
are embellished with racks for cigars. But
the most curious contrivance of all is a
secret music box, located somewhere in
the tender, which, being set, plays eight
popular airs, sufficient in duration to enter-
tain a supper, dinner, or breakfast table.
The whole establishment, enguie and
tender, rests upon two beautiful enamelled
waiters. Upon the side of the locomotive,
in miniature, is emblazoned " President Jef-
ferson Davis," showing that the testimo-
nial — ^locomotive and tender— combining
so peculiarly the useful and agreeable, was
especially designed for the use and pleas-
ure of " His Excellency." Upon the front,
just above where the " cow catcher " ought
to be, appears the confederate national
banner and battle flag, entwined with the
national ensign of France.



Presidflsit lilncoln's First Dollar.
One evening, in the executive chamber,
there were present a number of gentle-
men, among them Mr. Seward. A point
in the conversation suggesting the thought,
Mr. Lincoln said, "Seward, you never
heard, did you, how I earned my first dol-
lar?" "No," said Mr. Seward. "Well," re-
plied Mr. L., " I was about eighteen years of
age. I belonged, you know, to what they
call down South the ' scrubs ' — ^people w1m>



do not own land and slaves are nobody
there. But we had succeeded in raising,
chiefly by my labor, suflfident produce, as
I thought, to justify me in taking it down
the river to selL Afler much persuasion
I got the consent of my mother to go, and
constructed a little flat boat, large enou^
to take the barrel or two of things that we
had gathered, with myself and a little bun-
dle, down to New Orleans. A steamer
was coming down the river. We have,
you know, no wharves on the western
streams, and the custom was, if passengers
were at any of the landings, for them to
go out in a boat, the steamer stopping and
taking them on board. I was contemplat-
ing my new flatboat and wondering whether
I could make it stronger, or improve it in
any particular, when two men came do¥m
to the shore in carriages, with trunks, and
looking at the different boats, singled out
mine, and asked, * Who owns this ? ' I
answered, somewhat modestly, ' I do.'
' Will you,* said one of them, ' take us and
our trunks out to the steamer?' * Cer-
tainly,* said I. I was very glad to have
the opportunity of earning something. I
supposed that each would give me two or
three bits. The trunks were put on my
flatboat, the passengers seated themselVes
on the trunks, and I sculled them out to
the steamboat They got on board, and I
lifted up their heavy trunks, and put them
on deck. The steamer was about to put
on steam again, when I called out that
they had forgotten to pay me. Each of
them took from his pocket a silver half dol-
lar, and threw it on the floor of my boat.
I could scarcely believe my eyes as 1
picked up the money. Gentlemen, you
may think it a very little thing, and in
these days it seems to me like a trifle ; but
it was a most important incident in my life.
I could scarcely credit that I, a poor boy,
had earned a dollar in less than a day —
that by honest work I had earned a dollar.
The world seemed wider and fairer before
me. I was a more hopefid and ooofident
being fiom that time."

PINAL SCENES AND EVENTS IN THE GBEAT DBAMA; ETC. 659



Treating his Onasto to a Oood Drink.

At the interview between Mr. Lincoln
and the committee of the Chicago Conven-
tion that came to his Springfield home to
inform him of his nomination for the pres-
idency, a little incident occurred, of a Focial
nature, which deserves to be repeated.

After the ceremony had passed, Mr.
Lincoln remarked to the company that, as
an appropriate conclusion to an interview
so important and interesting as that which
had just transpired, he supposed that good
manners would require that he should treat
the committee with something to drink;
and, opening a door that led into a room
in the rear, he called out, * Mary ! Mary!'
A girl responded to the call, whom Mr.
Lincoln spoke a few words to in an under-
tone ; and, closing the door, returned again
to converse with his guests. Li a few
minutes the maiden entered bearing a
large waiter, containing several glass tum-
blers, and a large pitcher in the midst, and
placed it upon the center-table. Mr. Lin-
ooln arose, and gravely addressing the com-
pany, said : ' Grentlemen, we must pledge
our mutual healths in the most healthy
beverage which our God has given to
man ; it is the only beverage I have ever
used or allowed in my family, and I can-
not conscientiously depart &om it on the
present occasion ; it is pure Adam's ale
fit)m the spring ; ' and taking a tumbler, he
touched it to his lips and pledged them his
highest respects in a cup of cold water.
Of course, all his guests were constrained
to admire his consistency, and to join in
his example.



IMManaions in the " Happy Family.**
On Monday, the 6th of February, 1865,
after the Peace Commissioners from Rich-
mond had returned from Fortress Monroe,
Senator Johnson, of Georgia, waited on
Jeff. Davis, and, in substance, the following
conversation took place : —

^ Well, President Davis, so your peace
mission has £uled."
41



" Yes, I knew it would ; I hope now the
reconstructionists will fight Lincoln instead
of fighting me."

Mr. Lincoln, it seems, was not opposed
to making peace with the States ; but he
was not in favor of recognizing the con-
federate government as an independent
power.

** I see. President, that you have with-
drawn all the troops from Georgia into
Carolina and Virginia. What will the
people of Greorgia do for protection in the
next campaign ? "

" The people of Greorgia have followed
the counsels of Governor Brown and Mr.
Stephens; they must now protect them-
selves."

" Well, President, if you can do without
the people of Greorgia, the people of Geor^
gia can do wiihoui you I **



The Ziait Battery in Iiee*s Army: its Doom
Sealed by Loyal Virginia Troops.

It is indeed a strange fact, that the last
battery which the distinguished command-
er of the Confederate army. General Rob-
ert E. Lee, ever put in position near Ap-
pomattox Court-house, was silenced by a
skirmish line thrown forward by Brigadier-
General T. M. Harris (and commanding
at Fredericksburg), under command of
Captain Jarbo, of the Tenth West Vir-
ginia, and consisted entirely of West Viv'
ginia Union troops, arimed with the Spen-
cer seven-shooter. General Lee, supposing
that there was nothing but cavalry in his
front, ordered his colunm to disperse it
and move forward. The Twenty-fourth
Army Corps having, by a forced march
of twenty-four hours* duration, with but a
short interval of rest, at the middle of the
night been thrown in line across his front
in rear of the cavalry, checked his advanc-
ing columns.

Greneral Lee had placed a battery in
position, and was shelling the line com-
manded by General Harris (consisting, as
before remarked, of West Virginia troops)
at a ftuious rate, when Harris ordered the

skirmish line forward, under Captain Jar^

battery, which, with the aid of the Spencer
rifle, tiiey weie enabled to do in half an
hour, the line of support following up rap-

withdrawn, and one or two guns, the horses
of which had been killed, fell into the hands
of the Federal General

their capture terms were proffered by

crime that stands out in human history, —
