A good reoSoa for lettering the President IN NE
Uroag.-Tho following anecdote has long lad some
circulation in private We cannot vouch for its
truth. But if ii is not true il Dug 1t to be. Ii is We
J like truth.
When Gen. Jackson first persuaded, by
Messrs. Kendall aud Whitney, that The depostes
might be removed from the Bank of the United
States notw outstanding tile resolution OF Consfess,
and was furnished Ivy X. and w. with what they
called reasons for the measure, tho General culltd
together the Cabinet proper to propose H. This
Cabin.t then consisted Of Mcssrs McLane, Duan',
Cass and Woodbury.. Mr.. McLane arrived frs,
and entered into discussion of tho subject in the
progress of which he boldly denounced the mea-
sure, as fraught with the most disastrous conse.
- L..
coaSi4e'in.' While the argument was going on,
Messrs. Duane, Cass and Woodbury. arrived, and
listened to the progress Of the discussion, in pro-
found silence. The two first were clear against ,tc
measure, and even Mr. Woodbury., not knowing
ha, the otae' Cabinet had decided the question, and
not having heard from Mr.. Hill particularly on the
subject, too sagacious not to perceive the mis-.
chief that was brewing. These ihrco gentlemen,
however kept profound silence being well con.
tent, that the General and Mr. McI.ano should CHI
out the battle alone.-ln this state ofthings a gen
llen,an, well known as universal favoti!c at
Washington, who often, under the cevcr Of Jest,
was able to convey u home.truth without giving
offence, (and who never failed to improve the op
portunty,) was announced and shewn into the
Presidents Cabinet Being well known 10 all
present, his appearance occasloned no interruption
of the matter in band.
" Come Mr. -, said the President, who
happened to be in high good humor thai day, You
shall decide thus knoty point for US Here's Lou

and not one oftiese gentlemen says word. Now
! | want you to decide, which, - " You need
not say another word Mr.. President" replied Mr..
| -, You are altogether wrong, Mr.. McLane
is ugh and you must give up the measure" " Now,
| how upon earth" said the General 10 Mr.
can you tell whether am right or wrong, when
| you have not heard one of tho arguments and do
| not even know what the matter IN dispute is n
The gentleman smiled, and boins privileged per-
son replied" Why MIR. President, did you not say
that you differ fom Mr.. McLane2" g Yes, to be
sure, and is that any reason, that should be wrong
and he right?" " Heaven forbid" answered Mr.
-, that should inslnuatc any thing SO dis
respectful " But did you not say that these three
gentlemen kept silence p !" did certainly" said
the President. " Well them" pursued the gentle
man, ALLOW me instead of answering directly your
question how knew you are in the wrong, TO re

one day playing at backgammon, and had doubt

round remained in the most profound silence AT
that instant, the Count de Gsammon, arrived.
Decide this question: sail the King to him.
Sire said The Count, " Your Majesty is in the
wrong" How" replied the King, can YOU ac-
cuse me OF being in the wrong, before you know
what the question is p Because" answered the
Count " if the matter mad been in the slightest de-
gree doubtful, oil these gentlemen around would
have decided the question in your Maiesiy's favor "
