that he could longer recognize Calhoun as the
Generalssimo of the South! This will look singular to
many who only have knowledge of Mr.. Fooe officially
We think the fact will relieve the fears of any who
have had the slightest notion of real danger to the
Unon,-a notion that has only merited scorn and
contempt from the beginning. We have only space

short but vehement He reitersied what he asserted

that if his speech be attacked by Senators from

course as he regarded most for the interest of the
South. Here the tragedy ended, much to The sasfac-
