a SINGULAR STORY.
E7ZI 1TA.RIg oE, ARw0SD!

The Following was published several
years ago, says the Baltimore Clipper,
aud we believe proceeded originally
from the pen OF a Washington letter
wlter. We revive it on account of its
eccentric Significance -
The other morning at the breakfast
table our friend The Hon. John c. Cal
houn. seemed very much troubled and
out of spirits. You know no is alto
gelher a venerable man with hard,
Stern, Sco,ch-iiish face, softenod in its
expression around the uouth by sort
OF sad smile, which wins tho heart of
all who converse with him. His hair
is snow white. He is tall, thin aud
angular. He reminds you very much
OF old Hickory. That he is honest no
one doubts; he has SACRIFICED to his fa-
talism his brightest hopes of political
adYancement--has offered up on the
shrine ofthat necessity which he wor-
chips all that can excite ambition
the Presidency of the United States.
But to my story. The other morn
ing at the breakfast table, whero |, an
unooserved spectator, happened to DO
present. Calhoun was observed TO gaze
frequently at his right hand, and blush
It with his left in ahurried aud nervous
manner. He did this so often that 1t
excited attention. a., length ono of
the persons composing the breakfast la
ble-his nsmo think is Toombs, aud
ho is a member of Congress from Geor.
gia- took upon himselfto ask the oc-
casion of Mr.. Culhoun's disquietude.
"Does your hand paiu you 2, he ask.
ed. an
To this Mr. Calhoun replied in rath.
or a hurried msnner -" Pshaw I il is
nothing only dream had last night.
and which makes me see perpe,ually
large black spot--like an ink blotch--
opon the back Of my right hand. An
optical illusion | suppose.
OF course these words excited the c,i
tiosity Of tho company, but no one zen
tured to beg the details Of this singular
dream, until Toombs asked quiotly--.
What was your dream like7 am
not very superstitious about dreaiDs;--
but sometimes they have a good deal Of
truth in them"
but this was such a peculiatly ab.
sud dream" ssid Nc. Calboua. agoin
brushing his tight hend "boweyer il
il does not intrnde too much on the
time of our ftionde, | will relate it to
yoa."
