What will Buchanan do in Case of no
Election bv the Peopie.

The following letter from Andrew Jack
son, the original of which is now in the pos
session of the editor of the Nashville Ban
ner, serves to to give US some idea of the
course Mr.. Buchanan would be likely to
pursue in case the election should have to
be decided by the House of Representatives.
II he was willing to use gross corruption
thirty years ego to secure the Presidency for
friend, what would he be willing 10 do now
to secure it for himself, Any one who is
good at figures may be usefully employed in
ciphering out the answer to this question.
"HERMIrAGE, February %, 1916.
"Tour observations with regard to Mr..
Buchanan are correct. He showed want
of moral courage in the affairs of the intri-
que of Adams ard Clay--did not do me jus
tice in the expose he then made, and | am
sure about that time did believe there was
perfect understanding between Adams and
Clay about the Presidency and the Secre-
tary of State. This | am sure Of But
whether he viewed that there was any cor
rup.ion or not, know not, but one thing
do know, that he wished me to combat them
with their own weapons-tbat was to let
my friends say if was elected | would
make Mr.. Clay Secretary of State. This TO
me, appeared gross corruption, and l repe He'd
it with that honest Indignation as (which
thought it deserved.
