loath to leave the community whore he has
dwelt 50 long and which he has embraced 30
aaectionately. Yesterday forenoon he got
up another snow storm, Just TO remind peo-
pie that he was still about, and still possessed
the power of sending an occasional shudder
through their systems. 1t is only by short
spells, however, that he can anney us with

spring got '.the blind side Of him soon af-

in fine style, licked up the moisture Of the
morning snow, and the day closed grandly.

ude MI Jackson intf Let me hear from yoa about
1i's '''''s1' your friend i. II. BLAIR
~ This letter was received about the time that my
letter to the New York meeting appeared, exposing
the conspiracy Of Mi. Calhoun with Mr. Polk and his
followers to destroy the organ set up by Cen Jack
son at Washington and install that Of notification in
its stend. Mr. Buchanan and his colleague and espe
cal friend the Cabinet were both implicated in this
original movement, which embodied the South in q
sectional party to command the North. y did NOT
suppose our political warfare would have the effect
to break the truce between us, which had for its OBJ
ject the care of Gen. Jackson's remains and his
adopted attachments.
But j mistook my man. Mr.. Buchanan's colleague
seems to have embraced the opportunity which his
introduction Into the concerns of the Hermitage gave
him to attack me from that quarter Instead Of an
swering my letter Of charitable ntents, and consult.
ing with the family and the attorney, and Mr. KYes
and myself to the best form Of relief the first init
nation had Of changed feelings on the part OF those

spondence without authority. My name was not at
first mentioned because those who assailed me knew
that the immediate subject of complaint he extract
from Gen. Jacksons letter incnlpating Mr. Buchanan
about the corrupt bargain that he proposedl was
neither written to me nor published by me; This not
being noticed by was followed BY another, signed
Andrew Jackson, denouncng me by name as the
violator of ecu Jacksons confidence, and the rights
which his adopted son asserted over his papers.
How my good friend Andrew, whose last letter to
was an elfsion Of gratitude, was brought 70 this
point, can only conjecture. never gave him an
unkind look or an unkind word, OF did an nnklnd
thing to him or any of his family.

Of the most lovely and excellent of her SEX She was

Mr. Buchanan omits what General Jackson gives a
the conclusion Of his response

MI l5uclanGn 0mltS what General JACKSON gives as
the conclusion of his response:
That before would reach the Presidential chair by such
mrnis OF bargain and corrnpIior would the earth
open and swallow both Mr. Clay and his friends admyse with
them.
Gen. Jackson, when strongly moved, uttered his
feelings with yehemence, and as his mind fired, with
cumulative figures. 1t is not improbable, therefore,
that the language remembered by MI. Buchanan was
employed, and worked up that heat which exploded
in the denuneiation that blew up Mr.. Buchanans plot
But how can Mr.. Buchanan be believed, when lie says
in the next line, that this answer to his question was
such a one as he expected to receive such one
as he thought to obtain not for his own but for the
satisfaction of Others and begged leave to repeat it.
How can this be believed, when Mr.. Buchanan says
his object to get Gen. jackson "to declare that
he would not appoint to that office the man. however
worthy he might be, who stood at the head of the
most formidable part of his political encmes2' He
here expressly admits that the hope which induced
his application was, That General jackson would not
only deny that he had said he would appoint Mr..
Adams Premier, but that he would declare he would
not appoint him, which he had not only refused to
do but said he thought very well of MIR. Adams; yet
when this hope is blasted according to his own ac-
count, he assured the General that it was the very
thing expected" and what he wished for the sat
lsaction OF others, to whom he asked leave to re-
peat it.

In January 1895 few days before had been known that
Mr. Cmy and his Friends had declared in favor Of MIR. Adams,
was called upon by Mr. Buchmnn of Pennsy vaniu He sud

jackson should fight them with their Weapons He said
the opinion that jackson would retain Adams and that
was doing him injnry that the General should state whom he
would make Secretary of State and desired that should

would nothing on the subject Mr. Buchanan then remark
Well If he will merely say he will not retain Mr. Adams
that will answerN replied, was satisfied General jackson
wond neither say who should should not be Secretary Of
State but that he GI Buchanan knew him we'll and might
talk with him as well as could. Mr. Buchanan then said that
the next day. before the General to the Senate he would
call. He did so, as afterwards understood -
