From the Washington Union.
THE PRESIDENT.


We have hal occasion several tines to re.
mark upon the industrious habits and close
application to business Of the President Of the
United States. Being comparatively young
man, enjoying good health, and accustomed,
from early youth 10 these habits, he is most
interchangeable in giving his personal attention
10 all the branches Of the public service; and
that, too, more in detail than perhaps any of
his predecessors have been able, from their
more advanced age; to bestow upon them
With many of these details he has become
familiar. He is found daily in his Office from
IN early hour until late in the evening.
AS the country has been enlarged, and its
population increased the duties and RESPONSE
bilities Of the presidential office have been
greatly augmented. In the midst Of business,
he receives the visits Of the thousands who
throng to the capital at this season of the year,
and is courteous 10 all, whether they call 10
pay their respects, on business, taking care
TO neglect no public duty which requires his
attention. -
No nconsiderable portion of his time is con-
sumed in reading the immense correspondence
which he receives daily. To answer the thou.
sands Of letters from correspondents who re-
quest answers is physically impossible nor
has it evr been attempted by any Of his pre-
his whole time from other more important du-
ties. it would be impossible for him to respond
tn more than one in ten Of his numerous cor
| respondents. We mention the fact, that it
may be generally known, and that answers
ought not to be expected by the thousands Of
persons who address letters to him. But
though he cannot answer them, the public
may be assured that no letter on business re-
curing his attention is neglected.
We understand that many letters Of invita-
ton have recently been addressed to the Pre-
sident, from various quarters of the Union, TO
attend celebrations of the approaching 9th of
January, the anniversary Of the glorious vic.
tory Of New Orleans. 1t would, we do not
doubt, be most gratifying to him to attend
these occasions, and mingle with his fellow
citizens in the celebration Of the great event
which they propose to commemorate; but it
! is well known that his official engagements
at The seat Of government must necessarily
prevent it. 1t being impossible for him 10
give seperate answers 10 these numerous in
vtations with which his fellow-citizens have
honored him, we deem it proper TO make this
general answer. Though al his post, atten-
ding faithfully to the great public duties as
signed him, his heart and his feelings will
doubtless be with those patriotic citizens who
may celebrate the day made memorial by tho
glorious deeds of the lamented and patriotic
Jackson and his brave companions in arms.

OR THE UNSIGNED PLEDGE.
A TRUE STORY.

1t was once my lot to pass some time il
the pleasant little village Of S., situated ir
the valley Of the Connecticut, who're en-
gagged in the time-honored employment Of
teaching the ''young idea how to shoot ]"
or, in other word, swayed the sceptre "a
birchen one) over the village school. Il
was pleasant village, consisting of one
long street, running north and south, thick
ly studded with dwellings near the centre,
which became more and more scattered as
you proceeded either way; presenting ev-
cry variety, from the stately mansion Of
the man Of wealth, to the neat little cot
tage of the Woodworking, yea independent
day laborer. More remotely dilapidated
habitations, scattered here and there, gave
an appearance of a want of Thrift, and 9TH
er things indicated that all was not right
that the prosperity of majority of the in
habitants was, to say the least, doubtful. -
Althouwh the village presented pleasant
exterior, arising, in great degree, from its
locality yet to any one observing the in
terror arrangements of many Of the houses,
the appearance was far otherwise Some,
that outwardly bore the traces of wealth
and comfort, too plainly showed the baheful
effects of the destroyer within; while
many exhibited an aspect of decay by no
means indicative of industry and good msn-
agemcnt on the part of the inmates Should
the causes be sought large ediice might
be shown occupying prominent place at
one side of the village green before the
door Of which creaked sign indicating
that hero was the travellers home. This
was place of resort for large portion Of
the male inhabitants of the village; wheth-
er they wished to dispose of any commo-
dity--purchase or trade; whether they
desire to hear the news or pass away the
time and while they were engaged in their
employment the tavern keeper was by no
means idle. Each newly formed friend
ship must be cemented by drinking to the
health and prosperity Of each other, and a.
bargain was never considered complete un-
til the parties had pledged themselves by a
sacrifice to Bacchus. Sundry little build
ings, too, might be pointed out, appropria-
ted to the manufacture of one of Goods
good creatures" from the fermented juice of
the apple. Never since the days OF Eve
has the apple, or anything made from it,
been put to worse use than was cider in
these bot-houses Of destruction, where the
process of distllation was carried on with
the greateut assiduity. One of them, and
one only, always presented a pleasant APP
pearance to my mind. A short time before
went there to reside, through some me-
glect of the distiller the building caught fire
one windy day, and was consumed with all
its contents. The ruins remained long
afterward,a a solitary, blackened mass, fir
emblem Of the moral desolation it had beer
spreading around. / had amused myself
with imagining the lamentations which
must have resounded through Pandemoni-
um when the internal spirits beheld the
destruction of the engine Of their evil pow
er, and the regrets that must have filled
