PRACTICAL DEMOCRACY.-The Boston Times In a
late number, gives US the following %anccdote, and We pass 1t
over TO our readets with moro qualification, inasmuch ps II
goes To prove that the charge of favoritism 10 his relations
cannot be laid at the door of the President.
uooe dsv las, week, a number of worthy and substantial
farmers and droycrs who had been attending the Cambridge
Cattle Market, congregaicd in the temporary depot al For
,eps station, and the conversation turned on politics. some
of the assembly were whlCs or freesoilers, and Inc way inc

handled was n caution 10 the friends Of non.intervenilon.-
Presently. q sturdy looking farmer. with a clear pair oil eyes
and an honest face, put a question 10 the most violent OF Inc
dccI,imers-an out.and. out aboitionist-which Immediately
attracted the attention oil whole company 10 hlmseii; lhe
conversation then proceeded, but had not progressed very
far before the sophistrics of the abolitlonist were exposed and
refuted by the plain common sense arguments OF the farmer.
This was ackuo wledged on oil sides, except. OF course, By
his opponenI; and, satisfied with his victory, the farmer mo.
destly retired from the place, leaving The company at liberty

sure. Gle talked like 4 book" said one. "fes-l hardly
thought he was SO well posted up" remarked another. "he
looked rough, but talked like a lawyer" observed the third.
"But who is he ~ was the question generally put. At this
moment, Murray, the depot master, who had been quietly
listening 10 their speculations, stepped forward, and In his
Quiet aud peculiar way, said: "Gentemen, that is Mr.. Henry
Pierce Of Hinsborough county, New Hampshire brother Of
the President Of The UnutG States.
And that was true. We learn that Mr.. Pierce regularly
attends the Cambridge Cattle market every week, with the
products Of his farm in New Hampshire, and is every where
esteemed ds m honest high. minded, intelligent and patriotic
American citizen. What an interesting spectacle does this
