AN INTEREsTING sCENE.

The Tallahassee Floridian of the 18th instant
gives the following account Of an interesting scene
which took place in the House of Representatives
of Florida on the 9th Of January:
/" We were accidently present at a scene in the
House Of Representatives on Saturday last, Of deep
and stirring interest. 1t being the 9th of January,
the anniversary of the battle Of New Orleans, mo.
ton made that the flag Of the Union which usu-
ally occupies position over the speakers chair, but
which happened to be in one corner Of the room at
that time, be unfnrled and placed in its proper posi-
ton. Another motion then made and carried by
acclama,ion, that r. K. Call, who was observed to
be in the Hall, be invited TO unfu.l the flag. The
General active participant in the bloody field
Of Chalmete aid the glorious old chefiain. then
in the full vgor Of intellectual and physical great
ness. and there was, therefore, striking propriety in
the request which was made Of him. He complied.
Gravey and deliberately he advanced teok the flag
in his hands, and unforled iby the side Of the speak
er when such ou,hursto of patriotic emotion swell
ed up from every heart present as has not often beer
witnessed in that Assembly. The General proceed.
ed briefly, with an eoquence inspired by the excit.
ing recollections of the day. to address tho General
Assembly, for BY this time Senators had focked in,
attracted by the clapping Of hands and other demon.
STATIONS Of qualification which had continued to gree,
Gen. Call from the first moment he stepped within
the bar Of the House. After he had concluded un.
animous invitation was given TO take seat on the

THE STANDARD.
RALEIGH, SATURDAY, JAN. 90, 1853.
PRESIDENT PIERCE.

President Pierce has declined a public reception
,r tho authorities of Boston, which had been ten
d,,pd him on the occasionaof his passing through
that CITY on his way to Washington. In his let
T., be recites his previous verbal acceptance OF the
invitation when personally presented by the COM
mitee at Concord. The General states, however,
that after the event which has recently befallen
him with a crushing weight, it is his wish to pro-
ed to his post of duty as quietly and privately as
circumstances will permit. He feels deeply sensi-
Ueof the kindness which has prompted the invi-
tatou, and fully appreciates the evidence thus at.
h,dsd of the estimation inwhich he is held BY the
citizens of Boston, but looks upon them not as due
to any personal claims of regard, but as spnnging
from noble motive, and as proposal to receive
him as representative Of a principle, uppermost
in all hearts-the basis of which IS the sacredness
Of the Union; principle. that will be cherished
by all while any adequate love Of common country
exists in the Republic. Whatever anxieties may
vet be in store for him-whatever obstacles inter
pose nthe way Of duty, he has undying faith that
he will never falter in devotion to that object He
looks with fearless confidence for the support of all
patriots, Of whatever party in his endeavors TO pre-
serve the union of the States and the supremacy
Of the laws which are the surest guarantees Of oul
happiness, present and future.
