In the class Of involuntary BGnkrupfs

wants of the Government, and in the mean

We recollect to have heard, years ago,
an anccdote as creditable to Mr.. McMahon
as the ore we give below.
Mr. Mcmahon had greatly eyerted HIM
self in the campalgnc that resulted IA the
first election OF Gen. jackson, and had by
his thrilling eloquence and unweared ex-
ertIons, aided more than any other man NJ
raising the Jackson party IN Maryland,
from minority to a triumphant majority.
When the General commenced his high
handed acts against the rights and best IN
terest Of the People, Mr.. Mc hahon waited
on him, and earnestly bIt respectfully re-
monstrated agaiust the course he was pur-
sung. The General told him that when
he was in want Of his advice, he would
ask it--and in tho same breath added,
" MIR. Nc Mahon, what Office do you wish ;
name it and il shall Tvs yours" naturally
concluding from the course Of most of his
supporters that the opposition of Mr.. NJ.
could be very readily converted into active
support, BY the aid of II dip IN the Treas,i-
~. He had, however, for once, mistaken
his man-the bigh.mioded Patriot he had
insulted, by The offer Of office, looked HIM
sternly in the face, and replied, sir, you
know but little Of me when you ihlFE that
] am to be bought BY any or oil the offices
IN your gift. From that moment 10 the
present, he has been one Of the 6rmest an-
ti.Jackson men in the nation.
Not in Mdrket John V. l.. Mcmahon,
Of Baltimore, is reported to have rejected
the offer Of place in the new Cabinet,
saying that he was "yot able 10 make a
support by his profession, and was not,
therefore, IN the political market" The
remark was worthy of the maa."-lib.
