GREYSTONE.

1 Descrption of Mr. Tilden’s Magnificent Home on the Hudson. Mr. Cleveland’s Sunday at Greystone ias again attracted public attention to hat venerable and somewhat interesting place, writes s correspo ident of the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette The •oad which runs past Mr- Tilden’s front door becomes the boule.srd when t reaches New York. It is a broad, smoothly paved road, curbed and paved in the most approved fashion. Greytone itself stands ot a knall between the road way and the Hudson, commandng a beautiful view of the river. Crejatone is a huge pile of gneiss rock parried from the neighboring hills, md is impressive from its verv size. It contains ninety-nine rooms, and has a frontage of four-hundred feet. In the center is a tall square tower. Its effectiveness is in its massiveness, and Mr. Cleveland might scour th ebanks or th® Hudson without finding ite' tqual in his and many other respects- The idifice stands in a park ot one hundred md twenty acres of magnificent woodland slopes,, broad meadows, seouesterel lawns, and lovely glades and glens. From the uppermost room of the tower, 400 feet above the surface of the Hudson, the scene is magnificent. To the noria are the Peekskill Mountains and the environments of West Point, To the west are the Palisades; to the south the upper part of New York city and the hills of Staten Island, while to the east are the sail-flecked -waters ot Long Island Sound. Op, every hand the prosbect is not less beautful than vastNear the house are several arge silver firs, which Mr- Tilden imported from Greece. These are interspersed with a unique and berutful collection of trees and shrubs, among which are golden oaks, alders, purple beeches, and evergreens from the deepest shades of green co the richest shades of gold ' Chief among the latter is a beautiful specimen of Japanese arbor-vitae. ■

From the rear veranda the grounds descend by a succession of six terraces to the Hudson, 4(X yards distant. Standing directly west of the mansion is an oak tree that towers above the other monarchs of the forest- It is symmetrical to a fault, and never fails to attract attention. Mr. Glevelaud asked if there was any tradition connected with it Hte host smilingly informed him that he knew of none, except that it had been dubbed the ‘Tilden Oak.’ The spread of its foliage is seventy feet. The main hall of the building extends clear across, from east to west, and is lofty and wide. On the right is the Secertary’g office. The Secrteary. as he sits at his desk, can look at portraits of WillßmlCullen Brvant, Charles O’‘Jon nor and Samuel J• THelen. Next to this rootil is » wide stairway, and next to it the diessing room- At the end of the hall is the entrance to the rear piazza, and on the left oue may enter; .the reception-room, the diningroom or the library. Mr. Tilden’s sleeping apartments and the chief guest’s room are on the second floor- In the latter Mr- Cleveland slept. The furniture la of satin-wood, trimmed with bamboo The room is forty to twenty <eet in size, and perfect in its appointnente. Not tar from this room is another fitted up with a handsome billiard table and other requirements of the game. The third floor is entirely occupied by -leeping-rooms.

Reminiscences of 1880.

Several gentlemen ,;to-day wore recalling reminiscences of the republican national convention at Chicago in 1880. Among the viaitora from this city .was the gallant one legged soldier Hill, extreasurer of state, who in the first convention wm troubled in getting a card <>f admission. His disgust may be • magined on seeing a southern negro in rhe corridor of the hotel opanly selling tickets, and he made some remarks not very complimentary of the inetiioo-s which denied a soldier admission ard yet filled the pockets of this immigrant rom the south. His remark was over-, oeard by the ticket vender, and in a* 'flippant tone the negro asked: ‘Whar* lid you lose dat leg, sah?’ ‘I lost it’ mswered Col. Hill, ‘m the service of the union army,’ naming the battle. Well, aab,’ was the renly, 'you fool wid ■ne, sah, and you’ll lose de oder one.’* Quick as-a flash the colonel’s ciutch sanded alongside the head ot the gentle* >nan from'the south, and knocked him prawling ten feet away, and in such a ■ onfused condition that he did not care, ■o renew the discussion. The landlord f the hotel was so pleased with 001. sill’s action that he gave him the beat; oom and saw that he had sy fron t seat., i-ee of charge. During [jto the intense excitement oicident| to the Blaine-Grant riyalry in >ue .conyention of 1880, a Blaine delegate tailing from MaioeJ dogged the footsteps *.f Gen. Legau wanting to bet that Gen, • Jrant would not be nominated, and nally followed him into Don Oameron’s oom., where >a number of Indiat.ians toad gathered, Logan was in an ugly c.ood, and the impertinent .persistency r »f the man from Maine angered him beyond endurance, and he sprang towards dm with the intention of wrenching his spine- As he did so one of the Indi--.mans who was also shouting for Blaine mmped between them, and shaking his st under Gen. Logan’s nose, shouted Don’t you touch hint! don’t you dare •s ouch him.’ Logan halted and looking the Indianian, while kis countenance urned black as night, and his hand nought his revolver, he ask, ‘Who are .•on, sir?’ Quince A. Blankenship, of Martinsville, Indiana, by , sir;’ re* .lied the belicose Hoosier as he danced In front of the enraged general. Ex » nffnciUman Morrison, of this city.aad ?.lr. Hodges, a relative of Blakeuship’e, v.ere spectaors.and at Morrison’s sug-;-.euti<in. Hodges jerked Bia ken ship away » pushed him out of the room and by, m» doing prevented a possible tragedy., t realized afterwards that he Lad been fooli g with dynamite.

A New York firm applied to Abrabam i incoln some years before he became rasHeat as to the financial condition ot >ie ot his neighbors. Mr. Lincolu re- ■ led as Mllowe: ‘Yours of the loth a ant received. lam well acquainted •»>tb Mr. and know his circuit). ■ <*nce« Fir®t of all,’he has a wife and • by; together they ought to be worth ;»0 to any mau. Secondly, he has oflce In which there is a table worth and 'hree chairs worth say t’. m. ot there is in one corner a I rat hole which will bear looking o, Respectfully yours, A. Lincoln.' 1

Senator Willard’s Wife.

[Jap Tupea la Kakomo Diapa ch J To one who would hear of Indiana, itpoliUcal complications an I the ec:en- ; tricities of its distinguished peopl*, MrsWillard, the wife of the Senator from Lawrence, la a most interesting peri n. Before her marriage she was much tn public with her father, one of the most eminent surgeons of the c -untrv. I Since becoming Madam JVillard 1 meet her husband no place where she is not. A learned shoemaker once <»f • tryed to me: ‘A gentleman always takes his wife with him-’ Sitting in the Senate Chamber during the day. Mrs- Willard is very useful to the newspaper people, by whom she is in erviewed, She keeps a complete run of the business in her mind, and can alwavs impart something of importance to Snacks. j can’t see how we could run the Senate without her.

Many of her suggestions are made to do duty in the way of padding out th'* legislative g>-s : |of the press- On the night of the filibustering two years ago wne Lieut.'Gov. Hanna was recognising Republicans only, who were speaking against time, .Mrs- Willard shared her husband’s lies’.. H uina Was lounging in the c oak-ro >m- when Hilligass moved that Willard hj elected President cf the Sena e- Itjcarried in a storm and of course createdthe wildest collusionWillard started struggling through the crowd for the d< s.<. His wife pushed with him. ‘Please stay Kate, I can take care of myself,’ he said. ‘I know you can, Jimmy’ but I want to help you,’ was her reply. They meant business. Ten seconds more and Willard would have! been in the chair and, pushing the Temporary Chairman aside, have adjourned the Senate. But Harina out of breath, gesticulating almost incoherently, and as pale as a chaplain when a hattie is on, was in his place- Realizing that revolution might be met with violence was not conducive to the tranquility ot the temperature. To make a long story short, Mrs- Willard accompanied the Senatorial expedition to see Jack How rad-

Referring to Daniel Webster in a recent interview, ex-Benator Tuurman, of Ohio, said : T haves heard him sneak and I have never heard his equal. Whenever I think of Webster I leel that I appreciate the remaric once made about him by Sydney Smith- Webster was in England on a visit and somebody asked Sydney Smith if he bad seen the great American. He said he had- Wall, what did he think of him? ‘He is a cathedral,’ he sa'd. That is just my idea of him- 1 never saw such a play of ideas on any man’s face whilespeteking. The cavernous depth ot his seemed to be actually on fire. He had a most grave and solemn expression of o«iuteuance, but Vinton, who knew him intimately, told me he had a great fund of humor and good jokes, ana that he could tell a story as well us Tom 'Corwin ”

Judge Dougherty of Alabama, was noted for eccentricity am sarcasm quite as much as for impartial ..•dministration of justice. During au of court at Montgomery a young m: was tried for petit laceny—taking a poc s -t book. The next case was for murder. The evideiim in the former was slight, .a the latier conclusive, yet the jury convicted in the first and acquit ted iu the second, much to the surp.ise of the fudge, the audience aud the prisoners themselves. In the first case the judge said to the prisoner. ‘Young man you have not been in this country long?’ ‘No, sir,’ replied the young man. ‘I thought so. You don’t know these people; you may kill them but don’t touch their pocketbooks.’ The Mobile Register tells this anecdote.—Ex.

Joel B. Johnson, who was one of the founders the city of Woodstock, 111-.Jand has always been a staunch democrat, a few days since received from George W. Renwich, of Elgin, a half-gallon of wine that has a very interesting history. It was made by the last named gentleman in 1857. and was a part of one ot three husks of wine that were made at time ito celebrate lhe nomination,! election, and inauguration of Stephen A- Douglas as president of the United States. The ■first cask was used after nis nomination, but as he was not elected, the second, cask was used by the boys in blue in 1862 and the maker avowed that the third should be kept until the next democratic president should be inaugurated. That time having come, ilhas been distributed among his trier ds.

A Meteor as Big as a Small House.

[Dauionego C'enuu'dl.] The must remarkable meteor that we have ever heard of was seen by a number <»t our tewnsmen on Monday night afeout 10 o’clock. From several persons who saw it we gather that it presented the apperance of a round bak of lire! without a -tail, about the size of a small house, moving Irom the southeast to the northwest When it nad gone nearly, out of sight in the distance, it was seen to exnlode Some two or three minutes after it disappeared a loud, rattling, rumbling noiae was heard, first in the southeait and endirg in the northwest.

A RUGGED VERMONTER.

A Rutland man at Wallingford yesterday was astonished to sue Townsend, U 7 years old. drive up wah a pair <»f horses and a bobsled, sitting oa a beam, from the woods where lie had been hauling logs, all a£oue and apparently as vigorous as ever. The old gentleman seems in mind and ijody nearer 3® thau ICO, rides colts without saddles, and actually does heavy farm work so fast that a smart, grandson can not keep up with him.—Batland Herald,
