The President Of tie United Statos.
accompanied by bis private Secretary.
a. J. Donelson, ESQ., and the ladies'
OF his household, reached the Hermi.
tage yesterday evening. In company
with some forty or fifty Of his friends
and neighbsrs. We had the pleasure Of
paying him our respects, about ten
miles from town, near the point where
by-vay diverged to his farm. The
tolls aad cares Of State, aud the perse
eutions Of his enemies, seem 10 have
inspired him with new strength and
'Igor. We don't remember To- have
seen him appear IN better spirits for
many years past.
