23. It does not often happen just on the eve of a close election. and especially in times like the present, of party perturbation and political peril, that the candidate for a high and Warmly eon tested office meets with the extraordinary good fortune that ha recently befallen Senator Jones. When be left New York the middle of July for his home In Nevada, where a campaign for the Senatorship of that State was before him. be was.

in his own estimation broken in fortune, although five yeara before he was worth not less than $5,000,000. He has. however, recently recovered about one fourth of it. In financial matters Senator Jones has had rather a checkered career, having made and spent two or three good sized fortunes in his lif etime.and he Is yet on the sunny side of 50. While his financial affairs have been somewhat diversified, politically he has had very smooth sailing.

Though nominally a Republican, he belongs to no party, but is in his own State emphatically the first choice of both parties. Early in the summer, when the financial cloud bung darkest over his personal affairs, leading politicians of both parties hastened to assure him in advance of their unanimous preference for him over any candidate tbat could possibly be named, and that no money would be required on his part lor the expenses of the campaign. In Con gress he belong more to the whole country and the whole people than to any section or to any class. He is cosmopolitan in his na ture, and could not possibly be made a nar row, scheminir pot house politician. senator Jones was Dom in England, in Jan uary.

1H2U. on the banks of the Wye, a small river which runs between Wales and the mainland. His parents were Welch, and had always lived on the other side of the river until a'phort time previous to the birth of this distinguished member of their household; so that really be Is of neicb origin rather than English, but is American rather than either. This country has produced few men more thoroughly and instinctively ner own than the Anglo baxon here mentioned. He loves her soil and her peculiar institutions as few native Americans love tnem.

When asked In the summer if he intended to visit the World's Exposition at Paris, he replied: "I do not: between the At lantio and Pacific Slopes I find abundant scope for my ambition." In 1 H30, when the subject of this sketch was eighteen months of age. the family removed to America, and the year following settled in Cleveland. Ohio, where the children were raised, and educated in the publio schools of that city. Of the earlv life of Senator Jones the Hon. Andrew Freeze, for many years superintend ent of schools in that city, writes as follows lie was A RARI SPBCIXEX OF A BOT.

Finely developed physically and intellectually, not one in a thousand having a face so intelligent as he. "His father was a man of more than ordinary intelligence, and had much original Inde pendent thought. His notions of education for boys were he had six other sons that they should be trained to manly habits, and taught some branch of practical industry. He owned a larar marbla manufactory, and all through the boyhood of John, ne was more or less engaged assisting his father at this work. He attended school a less number of months in the year than the average city boy, out when mere ne always outstripped ms associates, who put In their whole time.

"Physically he had an unusually fine de Teloomeut. and the writer was led to notice him on this account long before he reached the Hlirh School. Havinjr passed all the lower grade a first In hi class, he reached the Academic Depart ment at the age of 15. wnero he at once took high stand as a scholar. "He excelled in the higher mathematics.

and was especially fond of all those branches of study which required the exercise of vig orous thought. In extemporaneous debate he also ex celled, and in the discussions held as a school exercise he had no match. "He had a quick, keen sense of honor, and most heartily despised a mean action. In this feature of his character he was especially marked, standing out and apart from the av erase high school student. When he selected his piece for declama tion it was usually an extract from some ora tor who pleaded far a down trodden people.

Robert Emmett defense of himself at his trial for treason was a speech that he used to KJhearse with great feeling and effect. At an early age ne leit tne importance or doing something in the world great enter prise. He often talked with me long and seriously about life's unsolved problems, and the part he should take in the world's great drama. "He finally called one day and made the surprising statement mat ne would sail for California on tne day iouowing. and tbat be bad called to BID HI OOOD BTS.

"1 did not see nun again lor twenty years. hen he called at my residence, a man of wealth and a member of the United States Senate. In this extraordinary man of talent and genius saw luinnea au the promises of a rarely endowed and precocious youth." At tbe Dressing out oi tne California gold excitement in 1H40. he was among the earliest to embark on the perilous voyage for the land of gold.

When only 20 years of ace. in company with a brother next older than himself, he took passage on an old. weather beaten sailing barge, sailed out through the veliaud Canal, down the St. Lawrence, round Cape Horn to the Golden Gate. Immediately on arriving in California he went into the mines, and.

either in the intimate relations of friendship business, or even as a oeggar at bis door. Mia charities ana munineent gifts of frienri shlD have not fallen below one million of dot. lara In hi lifetime. When he first went to Washington aa Sana. tor from Nevada, he had the princely fortune $5,000,000.

He did not anticipate' the long continued business collapse that ha ainoe wrecaeu so many lortunea, and, considering the strict economy it is necessary ail ciassea auenou citizen to nrtn. tlce under contraction, hia manner of life was perhapa a little extravagant. Not more ao. however, than any well to do citizen murht ngoy unuer rauonai monetary system. But when a great nation Is rohhl nf it monev.

of course the arts df civilization must perish, ana in very weaitniest come down to conditions imposea or hard pan. But wherever be scattered some nonest orkingman found better gleaninir a that world was made none the poorer at any rase. Tim XXPKX8K or ym7iniir. r.m tbe national capital, together with hi recklessness in giving and the usual shrink or vaiuea ana aeuune ot enterprise, so nearly bankrupted him, that, when he started for the summer campaign, it was something of a query in his own mind where the money waa to come from to buv campaign cigars. He atopped In Chicago on hi wsy to West, and sold at considerable aaerifloa some California lands, which, discreetly invested In first class Havana, ought to have been sufficient to have carried him throuirh.

especially after the marvelous wealth he had secured his constituency by the passage of silver oiii. Trio recent discovery of gold in the Sierra Nevada mlnea has very unexpectedly reimbursed him to the extent of a million and a Quarter. At the time of the great sliver excitement Congress laat winter It waa charsed tbat it a la In tbe to her the Senator was a heavy stockholder In rloh silver mines, which only required its remone tlzatlon by the government to make him richer than the Rothschilds. The charge he flatly denied, and said that in the stock of th rich stiver mines ox camarnia ne oia not own a dollar: that the only mining stock he did own was In some non paying gold mine in which he had spent several hundred thousand dollars in deveioDinar. but from which he had never realized anything In comparison to th monev exoended.

and never expected to. Also for three years past had not received a dollar or income irem mining, ana never ex Dec ted to aarain. as he fully believed the sup ply of gold waa too far exhausted ever to again repay the cost of mining. He had a brother, however, who was more hopeful, and pressed his search for gold deeper into the bowels of the earth than any mining enterprise bad ever been tried before, and his untiring zeal was at last rewarded by the discovei of a verv rich vein at the 2.100 foot level, none ever having been discovered Derore at a greater deotn than 1 reec This almost worthless stock, whloh had been a drug on the market at $4 per share, suddenly advanced till in the space of a fortnight it reached the surprising sum of $220 per share. This new discovery has not only netted the Senator the sum of $1,125,000, but added over $30,000,000 to the mining capital of California and Nevada, and so much more to the wealth of the continent.

Notwithstanding his good fortune, he still preserves bis Integrity in regard to greenbacks, and declares them, when made a per fect legal tender. THB BEST MOXXT IX THB WORLD. Nevada has. through her Senator, won an enviable notoriety. Aitnougb a new State, and comparatively undeveloped, it has a dis tinction and historical prominence second to no State in the Union.

Having a limited population it has, of course, few Representatives in Congress, and has for some time had but one Senator, his colleague. Senator Sharon, having no share on the matter. Senator Sharon was also a man of wealth. but. unlike Senator Jones, staved at home and looked after his own interest.

Senator Jones left his own affairs to the hands of suoh persons as he could hire to look after them and devoted himself untiringly to the affairs of the nation, and there will hardly be any one of any class who will not be glad to hear of his good fortune. Wealth seldom falls into hands where It Is more likely to result in general good than In the hands of Senator Jones, of Nevada. No one cares in times like these to be noted for liberality, and it la not probable that the Senator in building up another fortune will ever be quite so prodigal in giving as he has been in tne past, but he will labor even more assiduously in establishing enterprise and securing such legislation as shall enable all classes to enjoy prosperity and plenty.
