about shutdown on Thursday. and stopped at the
Washington House, which he left at nine O'Clock.
When ut the place of the robbery, he saw two
men coming from Tewksbury village, who stop
ped him. and demanded his money. One ofiheln
was short, thick set man, and the other mid
ding sized man. Mr. Cook started to run from
them-when they both seized him, the tall one
presenting pistol, and threatening to blow III.

Querist. have seen il stated in some Of tho

that there was n difference of opinion between
yourself and Mr.. Webster, and he would prob
ably suon leave the Cabinet.
President: 1t is true TIM, difference of opin-
ion on some subjects, between myself and the
Secretary of State, does exist; but / trust that
shall not in consequence of this difference of O =
pinion, be deprived Of his valuable services in the
Cabinet.
Querisl: II my request is not an improper one,
SIR, should like exceedingly well to know the
important subjects which you differ in opinion.
President: oh, your request is by no means
improper, will answer you honestly and frankly.
The most important subject on which we differ,
and which division of sentiment, as said before,
in my opinion, will not cause dissolution of the
the Cabinet, is this: Mr.. Webster is fond of ma
king chowder formy part, prefer to open oys
tiers !-BaliinOre Patriot.
