4 White House Convcrsation.-The
Philadelphia Gazette reports the following
anecdole as told by Mr.. Gibbons at the
meeting on Friday evening:
We understood Mr.. Gibbons to say, when
Mr.. Tyler had entered upon the duties of the
Presidential Office, Mr.. Bolts who had been in
innate with him in private life, and knew some
thing of his pecuniary embarrassments, called
to see him; while they were waking together
through the grounds of the Presidents house,
Mr.. Bolts made this remark to his frlend Mr..
Tyler, you are now in position that affords you
an opportunity OF relieving yourself from pc ,un-
larry difficulties and making yourself comforta-
hle for tie rest of your life. | think, by living
IN plain, republican style, you can support the
dignity of your station for about ten thousand
dollars year; and at the expiration of four
years. you can retire with snug little fortune
OF $4,000" "Fhat may all be true" replied
Mr.. Tyler, "but Mr.. Bolts, why do you limit me
toJour yedrs' "Why, slr' said Mr.. B., "you
are acquainted with the principles upon
which the Wing party came into power. We
are surely pledged to carry out the one term
principle ~ "But Mr.. Bots" answered Mr..
Tyler, "that was only an elcctionecring pledge
the people wont think of that now-and IRE wiR

OF the Presidents sons now approached them.
My dear" said Mr.. Tyler. "Mr. Bolts talks of
limiting me 10 a single term, What do you
think OF it = "Why pa" she replied, 'you

implied, here already detailed What human
intelligence, without the spirit of prophecy,
could foresee that this man, when installed in
the Chair of Chief Magistrate, should in the
face Of all this, be opposed to Bank, or to any
establishment bearing the name Of Bank
That he should refuse his signature to a tariff
bill, because it failed to take from the States
their distrbutivo share Of the avails of the public
lands That he should be SO much enamourcd
of the veto power, that like lad when first en-
trusted with gun, he should be eternally fir
ing it off, merely to hear the noise it made !!
That he should forget the one term principle,
and begin at once to lay his plans for his own
reelection That he should essay to build up
a party OF his own, and failing in that should
propose to form partnership with the Loco
Focos, and repulsed by them, should then fall
back in sullen discomfort upon his "corpora's
guard" and without an inch of solid ground to
stand upon, ridiculously set himself up as the
rival and competitor of Henry CLAY!

For few years past the prosperity Of the

and beautifully grow and increase in popula-

of nature there, will not for ever remain I'M
employed. And the establishment of stated
public worship and religious ordinances, will
furnish an essential means of the healthtul

TIE NEXT PRESIDENCY.

Whilst administrations are making on

Debt and high taxes, it is not strange ,hat
the DemUcrati, Republicans shoulI begin
t. be aroused 10 acu,n. Hence we sec
that The friends OF Mr.. Buchanan in Penn.
sy lvania have mentioned his name, in
some of the country meetings, as their
first choice for The next Presidency; and
in Kentucky the friends Of Col. K. NJ.
Johnson have Sc! forth his pretcnsions. -
In the Southern Sites there his been as
yet no p 'pular mosemen. on the subject.
The Press, it is true, in m my paris Of tie
South, has given out mo expressions Of
opinion, aud doubtless so lar as it goes, II
sa 'wer Ill evidence of pop Ilir feeling
If we may judge from these expressions
the Conclusion is CERTAIN that the DemCc.
racy OF the South, with small exceptions,
are rapidly concentrating on John e. Cal
h I'm. He seems TO be universally look
10 as the nan If all others in this Repub-
lie, best qua flied to reieem the Govern
ment from its fllen stale and re>tyre the
original purity and honesty of It's admin
islration. There are some undoubtedly,
who, feeling indignant at the foul injus,
tice done Mr.. Vau Buren,, would as first
choice, prefer his re election, but the mil
ority OF these know too well how difficult
it would g to overcome the unjust preju
dices existing in The minds of thousands of
honest people, especially here iu the
Souh, against this great and prosecuted
man, to be willing TO risk the contest on
his name. 1t is TO restore the Constitu
tim and Government, not Mr.. Van Buren,,
that the Democracy of the country ale to
enter on the next contest for the Presilen-
cy. History will do him justice. When
the passions and prejudices of purity ami

wings pass another bank bill and present il
to him for his signature. If he was in ia
yor of bank, il was the duty of the nation.
al legislature to have passed such bill free
from his objections and which he would
have signed; And it is Gear that if The
wing majority in Congress neglected or re-
fused TO do so, then all the distress and
ruin whic has come over the country and
which the wings attribute to the absence of
a bank, is the result Of their own folly and
omission Of duty and not TO be laid as sin
upon Gen Jackson's shoulders.
The wings have frequently very Curl
Gus way of drawing directly different and
contradictory conclusions fr"m the same
premises. Ii will be apparent that Gen.
Jackson cannot be justly abused by the
wings for killing the bank while at the
same time he is said to have been in ia
vorof it. The truth is that he was known
10 be opposed 10 any thing like a wing
national bank, with stockholders and with
the power of discount. The wings did
not attempt, after his reelection or after
his veto, to PISS any other bank bill, well
knowing the fate it would receive at his
hands.
The Creole says that when it charged
the democrats with sustaining the one man
power against the majority it meant "Con-
gressonal majorites" and that ga majority
Of Congress represented majority Of the
people," Now it may or it may not be
true that such Congressional majorties re-
present the majority OF the people; but as
suming it to be SO, the Creole makes out
case pal pably against itself; for does it
not recol.ect that after the veto of the bank
by the old hero a majority Of anti-5ank
men pere returned to Congress-? So, let
the Creole ascertain the majority either by
his rule or ours, it will find that majority
was in favor of the bank veto.

CORN AND COB MILL.

We invite the especial attention of our
readers o the advert sement of G. S. Tain
ior, Esq, published to day in another col.
umn. The Patent Corn and Cob Mill,
which he has purchased the right of vend-
ing in this county AMI in Holm S, may, we
think, be justly considered one of the most
useful invention TO farmers and domestic
economists, with which the present age
has been blessed. Before we became &C.
quain ed with Mr.. Il. we heard much said
in praise OF tn rse Mills BY gentlemen Fl ON
those counties in which tiey have become
extensively in use; and all who have ted
their superior usefulness, and with whom
we have spoken on the subject, we have
heard declare that they would not be with,
out such 4 machine, for more than five
time its cost. A correspondent from
Adams county, where this improve
ment HIS been more in nse thln in
any other part of the State, writes US that
he is satisfied from actual personal obscr-
vation, and from the testimony of numer.
Gus planters of the largest interests, that a
saving Of one half of the corn crops can
be effected by the application of this i'm
provement to common mil S." He adds,

The case of Mr.. Ajax Royster, charged
with the crime of perjury in falsely swear
ing out a writ of attachment, was tried
Yesterday. After the most diigent and
strict examination of the evidence, the pro-
secution appeared so clearly to be mali
cious. and entirely groundless, that the
District Attorney very properly and
promptly proposed TO enter a nOlte prOse9m,
which the counsel OF the accused objected
10, and insisted on a verdict of acquittal;
which verdict the jury rendered without
hesitancy, and without retiring from the
20 I'd it was received with spontaneous
bursts of applause from the whole auditory.
Mr.. Royster has thus passed through his
trial, not only with an acquittal, but under
such circumstances, as have fully vindica-
ted his reputation, from even the least
suspicion of outlines of the charge alleged
against him, and has proved a character
from his earliest childhood 10 the presen,
time of which, any man may well be proud.

We said, in a former number, that in
whatever instances the democratic party
had used or sustained the veto power,
it was not against but NTH the wishes of
the popular majority. We inferred pat
ticuary to Gen. Jackson's veto of The
Bank bill and his re- lection afterwards b,
an immense and increased majority, and
that, too, when the question Of bank or no
bank was distinctly the great issue before
tue country; aud when Mr. Webster(and we
might have ad ed Mr.. Clay) had declared
in The Senate of United States, TIN, the
bank question was br ,ught forward by its
friend prematurely for the avowed purpose
of testing the popular will on the subject,
and with the hope of defeating Gen. ia k
sons reelection. The records of the
country and every mans recollection of lis
history, will establish that the bank qpes.
ton was thus flung into the issue, and was
the great point upon which the e.ection

Yet the Mississippi Creole, retorts upon
US, and says that we forget that "after Gen.
Jackson vetoed the Bank Bill and was a
candidate for reelection, he did run on the
question of for or against bank, but hat
he avowed himself in favor of a national
bank" Now We did not forget any such
thing, for the best of all reasons;-tterf
UaS no such fact on which TO predicate
forgetfulness. Gen. Jackson did run on
the anti-Bank question and was reelected.
