Tlio Washington Correspondent o£ tho Boston Traveller, himself a Half- 111001 ( , writing to a Half-breed paper writes thus of P resident Arthur, after a personal observation of two years, of him and hi 3 Administration : An intimate friend of President Arthur said to mo the other evening a t tho Riggs house ; “ I havo kuown nil tho public men that havo como to Washington for ovor a scoro of year.3, hut thero is not ono of them wlio.se word I would moro willingly take than tliat of tho present President of the United Slates. President Arthur, in tho first place, is a horn gentle man. The first instinct of a gentle man is tlie saoredne.'a of lih own, his personal, vt>vd. When Mr. Ar thur was collector of tho p o rt a t New York he was noted ns a man who would keep his avoid, cost what it would. Iu the V K ta Konso lie in tho samo Chester Allan Arthur that he was in New York. I like him because jo n can depend on him, and whilo he is cautious in going forward you notice one thing-Tie never goes hack. To day h e is the most iivmninent man b e fore tho eyes of the people for the* Re publican nomination next j ear ; aud yet he has not given, either hy sign word or deed, any intimation that he would like to head the Presidential ticket. Tin* business men are a unit for him, for lio ia regarded ns who aud lafe ehief magistrate by those having vast interests at slake. The President is per sonally one of the most faithful of friends, and a charming conversation alist on almost any topic, whether it ho literature, art, polities, or the delights of the disciples of Isaac Waltou. At night ho is very fond of remaining up very late, and after all the visitors are gono from iho Wiiito Houso lie retires to his riecpingrotiiij, turns thi, gas low until it dimly flickers, and then seats himself iu front of a cheery fireplace and smokes a fragrant cigar. Happy tho man who is invited to a confi dential chat in this cosy apartment. Here tho President is seen aud heard at his best; liis u tter absence of reserve to his intimates, and tho fact that he completely forgets for the time the tre mendous duties and responsibilities of his high pi osition, gives one\ a b e tter opportunity to form a correct estimate of him as a man than at auy other time.
