Of a paragraph which is going through the neWspa-
pers. stating that Mr. Charles Lauman has In press
1.-THE Private Life and Private Correspondence OF
Daniel Webster" including among other desraoie
things his correspondence with Rufus Choate. Mr..
Lauman is the author of a very absurd ana mac
eurate book about Mr.. Webster published few
years since, and the work in press, II IL mas any
existence at ALL is probably ohly rehash OF that
Az for letters from Mr.. Webster to MIR. Ch0ate,
am informed by the best authority that only five or
six exist and those Mr.. CbOate will not suffer 10
be published. He has destroyed the rest OF Dir.
Webster letters to him. Mr. Lauman was for
time Mr. Webster's amanuensls, ard may posi-
bly,, have surreptitiOusy retained copies OF letters
which were dictated 10 him, but even in that case,
presume be would scarcely venture on so grave
breach Of trust az their publication At all events
his publication of them would be violation OF the
legal rights of Mr.. Webster heirs which would not
be suffered to pass un-edressed.
The AntiSlavery sentiment OF the Massachusetts,
House of Representatives was strikin2ly indicated
to-day by the election as Chaplain, OF the Rev
Daniel Foster one of the most jealous and thor
sugh- going Antslavery clergymen in the State
sspsspondenes Of The N Y. Tribune.
Boston, Friday Jan. 9, 1857.

The straight Rel ublicans, thus far have been out
generated by the Fremont Americans. The name
