rTr. Fillmore and MIR. Donelson.

The following incident related to us by
gentleman who happened to be present when
Alr. Fillmore visited the Hermitage as he pas
sed through this section of country after the
close of his Presidency. lie called, after eav-
ing the Hermitage, and spent several hours,
with Major Doneson, who had prepared COLA
ton of which many of the neighbors partook,
in the course If the evening, Major Donelson,
after adverting to the fact, that he had once
bitterly opposed Mr. Fillmore, having looked
upon him as the head of Il party which stood
on platform unsafe for the institution of the
South, stated to his friends and neighbors that
he was happy to have such an opportunity as
this of expressing his conviction, that he had
done his distinguished guest, who had Just
left, great injustice. 1t was now manifest that
Mr.. Fillmore was far more reliable friend of
the constitution rights Of all sections of the
Union that Mr. Pierce, for whom he, Mr.
Donelson, had voted Time had shown that
Mr. Pierce was the patron of the uitraists
who had so bitterly opposed the Compromise
Measures, as final settlement of the slavery
question 1t was also now evident that Mr.
Fillmore, in standing by that settlement, had
brought upon himself the wrath of the higher
law men of the North. Under such circum-
stances Mr. DoneIson said, we was ready 10
make all the amends in his power, and that as
he had helped his Democratic friends 10 pull
down the administration of Mr.. Fillmore, he
would say to them that he was ready to build
it up again. and as an earnest of his intentions,
he would now propose as toast, at his own
house and at his own table:
MILLARD FnLMoRE.-The people will make
him President in 1856, as they did Gen. Jack
son in 1928 and 1882. He is true to the
Constitution and the Union, whilst his Demos
cratic successor has shamefnlIy surrendered
both to the keeping Of the higher law men of
the North and the South, the Rhetts and
Cheveses of the latter section, and the Stewards
and Giddingses of the former.
This toast was drank with acclammation
and affords conclusive evidence fMajor Donel-
sons high appreciation of Mr. Fillmore, at a
time when his open and manly expression of
such appreciation could by no possibility be
subject to the mputation of having proceeded
from and other than the most honorable mos
tives.-NasApille Banner.

General Jackson and Major DOmelsOn.
When Maj. Donelson retired from the post
of editor of the Washington Union, even the
editors of the Southern Press were compelled
to say "that he had conducted his journal with
habitual ability; he leaves few enemies 10 his
party whom any good citizen would desire to
count among his friends" These editors, point
edIy remarks the Memphis Eagle, Messrs Fish.
er and DeLeon, represented the disunion party
of the South, waged the fiercest war upon
Maj. Donelson as the advocate of the compror
mise measures of 1850. The venerable editors
of the National Intelligencer said, ulso, on that
occasion: "We should do injustice to our per~
sonal feelings, as well as to the honorable
character of apolitcal adversary, if we were to
withhold the expression of our regret at the re-
trement of Maj Donelson from the editorial
chair. The party of which the Union has been
the recognized organ, could hardly fnd more
able or efficient conductor, we should think, or
his adversaries a more courteous, yet at the
same time, more untiinching antagonist"
In order to show the public how Gen. Jack
son loved and regarded Maj. Donelson, the
Nashville Gazette publishes letter written by
that great man, one of the last, we bIeeive, that
he ever penned. He died early in June, and
his letter is dated the 24th of May addressed
to Maj. DoneIsou, from which we make the fols
lowing extract. It is as follows:
My Dear Andrea: rejoice that you will no.
bly, execute your mission, and bring the Lone
Star into our glorious Union.
What may be my fate, God only knows.
am greatly afflicted, safer much; and it will be
a miracle if | should survive my present attack
am swollen from the toes to the crown of the
head, and am in bandages to my hips. How
far my God may think proper to bear me up
under my weight ofaffiictions, He only knows.
But my dear Major live or die, you have my
blessings and prayers for your welfare and hap.
piness in this world, and that we may meet in
u bssful Immortality.
Your affectionate uncle,
ANDREW JACKSON.

Marriage aader Difficulties. Phila~
dephia Inquirer tells good story about a
young man and a stylish looking shop-girl, who
went to church to be married, few days since,
in that city. While awaiting the arrival ofthe
minister in the porch. tailor steppedup the
bridegroom and presenteda bill for his wedding
coat. he bill must be paid at once or the
coat returnede- but as the poor fellow had not
a dollar beyond the minister's fee, there was
a bright prospect that he would be compelled
TO get married in his shirt sleeves. "A friend,
however, advanced the needful and the twain
were "made one flesh" Hardly had the par
ties left the altar, when stout, coarse woman
made her way up to the bride and presented
her bill for the wedding dress! Tie friend a~
gain advanced the money, and the couple des
parted. We call this getting married under
difficulties"

A Reminescence. On the day when the news
of General SCOTS nomination for the Presiden-
cy was received here in l842 we stepped into a
barber shop and there met fine old Democrat
who seemed quite distressed. "Oh," said he
''why did you not nominate Fillmore! He has
been most excellent President, and bis mons
ination would have put an end to all party strife;
should be very glad to see him President
again"
We hope that our old friend is grariied now.
