within slght Of the Court H"use, or placed a

Nor has she left her plantation. hut once dur

her bodily health has been sncl, as 10 admit Oi

She has expressed This jesirr. and showu il,

though she visited very liule previous to his
death. We think il may safely b. asserted that
snch an instance Of domestic attachment has
seldom, if ever, appeared on record.

ofa recent publication urging Mr. Cal

party considers his chances mol so good rs

is his best Recommendation to the honor,
which his friends desire for him. MIR. Cal

been so consisien, and influential, as 10

Of q Journal, at the seat Of government is
respectfully submitted TO your decision.-
The considerations in favar of such mea-
