The following extracts from letters under

tae eminent consistency Of this distinguished
head OF the great National Democratic par
~. That which Mr.. buchanan firmly MUM
tained to be orthodox in I848 and 1850 it
strikes him with amusement in 1857 to find
that any one should venture to assert!

'sSlavery existed at that period when the
Kansas and Nebraska bill was passed--and
still exists in Kansas under the Constitution
Of the United States. This point has ut last
been decided by the highest tribunal known

MADISON,
BoRN MARCH l6, 1851.
Dfxp JuNr 26. 1886,

The appearance Of the coffin and corpse is
thus described
In digging for suitable foundation it be.
came necessary to 20 below the coffin, which
was copsequsntly exposed to view. The
boards placed above the coffin had decayed !;
but no earth had fallen 10 upon II, and ev-
erything appeared to DO Ms when the coffin
was deposited there, except that the coffin lid
was slightly out Of place, allowing partial
view of the interior. Al there were no fas-
Jennings TO prevent, the part Of the lid, COW
erng the superior portion Of the body, was
raised, and the several gentlemen present
looked in upon the remains Of the greet Vir-
ginian. The coffin itself, of black walnut,
was in perfect preservation, and the interior
was nearly filed with species Of moss,
which adhered pertinaciously to the wood.
Beneath this, and partially hidden BY it,
were few of the larger and harder bones
The lower jaw had fallen away, the bones of
the breast and the ribs were gone, and the
only parts Of the skeleton which remained
were the skull aud portions Of the cheek
bones, the vertebse of the neck, the spine,
and the large bones Of the arm. All else OF
the upper part of the bopy had returned to
shs dast from whence it was taken, and in q
few years moro every trace Of the body viii
disappear, until the trumdet Of the resurrec.
ton shall reunite the scattered PARTICLES
The body had bee inferred just twenty -one
years. aa.3
On reaohing sufficiently firm ground, the
foundation was commenced and built up as
two wallis, one on either side Of the cofhn, un-
ill proper height was gained, when it was
arehed over the coffin, nnd then bull. up SOL
idly to the surface---thus forming vault,
within which rests the remains Of MADISON,
and precisely beneath the centre OF the mon.
ument. The foundation was made Of hard
surface stone, gathered on enc Montpelier
farm, from within a short distance Of the
graveyard.

Improved Postage Stamps.
G Philadelphia Ledger says:

The Philadelphia Ledger says:
"Hon. James Campbell, the Postmaster
General, has recently introduced an i'm
provement in the postage stamps, which
adds greatly TO their public convenience
He has had them prepared on sheets with
perforations around the borders OF each
stamp, SO that they can be separated, one
from the other, without using knife or
pair of scissors. Besides the saving Of
time in this improvement, there is greater
security that the stamp will adhere TO the
letter, for the points or rough edge left by
the perforations will stick better to the let
ter, there being none Of the risk Of the edge
turning up when it is continuous.
"This plan Of perforating letter stamps is
prac;iced in Europe, and Mr.. Campbell had
the contractor 10 procure a machine from
that country for use here. The contract j:
made with Toppan, Carpenter s. Co., Of
this city, and, in addition TO supply fol
Philidelp hia, the stamps have been sent tc
New York, Boston, Baltimore, Cincinnati
S.. Louis, New Orleans, Chicago and Al
bany. The amount of letter writing in the
United States may be inferred from The
number Of postage stamps used. The mum
Der sold by the government last year reach
ed nearly ole hundred and fifty millions o
