The Boston Palladium copies r6icnIorsy an
true anecdote of Mr. Galatn, but correc,s it bv
another, essentially, and we believe infinitely true.
MIR Gallatin did not land at Boston, but further
"down east" in the District of Maine, in the 10th
year of his age.
ORTG INAL ANEcpoTE OF ALBERT G,r1,r,N-
This eminent American citizen began his career as
a French Teacher in the Interior of PENNSYLVANIA
Early one morning, while riding towards Philatel..
phia from one of the wester counties, q farmers
daughter came out of her fathers house with n
milk pail in hand and without perceiynp that
stranger was near put one hand on the fence and
with the pail in her other hand, bounded over with

and her agility pleased the countryman of Will

Mrs Albert Gallutn.-Coiona1
Journal.
THE story is very good, hut not altogether true
Mr.. Gallatn 'began his career in this country as
teacher of-the French language at the University
OF Cambridge. This was previous TO the Reyon
ton, and Immediately after he had landed from
vessel, at Boston While at Cambridge he boarded
at Commons, and received certain sum for tuition
from each student whom he taught there being then
no professorship of the French language. At the
end OF one year, Mr.. G went to the province of
Maine, where he bought small piece of land which
he cultivated during the of the revolution. At
the close of the war, he removed to Pennsylvania,
where he bought good farm. and as we have heard
from his friends did something at his trade as sad
dler Geneva by the way, gives good trade to all
her sons, and an education to boot As to Mr. Gal.
latlp's marriage, the above account is altogether
romance lie married, as his first wife we mean,
French lady IN Richmond Va This was about the
year 1888, and is connected with very pleasing
incident IN Mr.. Galiatins life Mr. Gallaia and his
friend, a Swiss, or Frenchman came to Richmond
wholly unknown: on some business The Legislu-
ture was in session at the time Gallatm and his
friend applied for board at private boarding house
Eept by French lady, and where Patrick Henry,
krascls C0rbin and .gann Page, distinguished men
in the State, were boarding The good lady sub
mtted the application to the decision of the mess,
who assented to the reception of the foreigners
These gentlemen formed an acquaintance with Gal
latin and strong friendship for him. They often
spoke of him, before his elevation in public e as
man of surprising attachments and ability. The
best of the story is, that the lady bad daugh-
tiers; and Gallatin, before he left the CITY, married
one and his friend the other Boston Paflndzyn

We have assurances from men as Intelligent and
observing any New York, going to corroborute
the conclusion come to in the following extract from
the u States Gazette. 1t is positively asserted bv
these, that Mr. Van Buren, is not, and never was
possessed OF commanding popularity in that State
that the success which has attended his exertions
IN the State elections, was invariably produced by
managing and balancing the numerous state and 10
cal parties which prevail, in which he is acknowl-
edged to possess much tact ana acuteness-und
that if ever he can be met single handed on
national politics, and the question disencumbered of
local politics. that the truth of the assertion will be
made manifest. His extraordinary reputation for
juggery will do for him.
Mr.. VAN BUREN,
q let err from the state of New York to the editor
OF the Washington Telegraph, concludes with the
following remark, which has not a very pleasant
sound TO the ultra Van Buren, Jackson party:
Whenever Mr. Van Buren, shall appeal directly
to the people of this state and on his own merits and
pretenslons solely claim their vote, it is more than
probable that he will not obtain it. He cuald not
obtain 1t now, agains any other man in the Union
Nor is 1t TO be Disguised that General jackson
dangers his own success here in 1882 by becoming
or even by beng regarded, as identified with Mr.
Van Burcns fnture strength and prospects,"
rs. Gas.
Line rumor OF the day, is that Mr. Randolph is To
be transferred from ST Petersburg to succeed Mr Nc
Lane at london and that Mr. Van Buren, will take
MIR Randolphs place at the former Court. This ar
rangemeut Is thought will prove highly acceptable
to Mr Randolph not less happy in England than
miserable IN Russia. New outfits will be necessary
in either case.

capital thing said Of him by Gideon When at
