do not think so. Lecompton has lost its

WILSON AND CALHoUN.-The New York
Herald after alluding to tbs remarks Of SEN
ater Wilson of Massachusetts concerning
John Calhoun, describes the. personal ap.
pearance of the two men and their charac-
ters Promising that fight may grow out
Of Wilson's reflections upon Calhoun, the
Herald says of the two men -
The immortal Calhoun referred to by Mr..
Wilson is now on his way from Kansas to
Washington, and may be in Pennsylvania
avenue to-day. He is represented to be a
cool, calm, but determined man; and it is
not probable that he will allow Mr.. Wilson
to hold him up to the contempt Of the Amer
lean people without calling him to account
for it. Mr. Calhoun is from Puritan stock
and has oil the fire and pluck of the Eastern
Senator. Wilson was originally a shoema-
ker. but eventually left the shop and set uT
as q politician; he is likewise a mil
itary nan and a General. He is al
fire, fury and antislavery, from top t.
toe. We are not informed as to Calhoun''
original occupation but have no doubt that
he was brought up in pious, religious, God
fearing way. in one of those quiet little cot
tages that dot the valleys Of Massachusetts,
in which State he was born. He is also q
military man and n General, with as much
pluck and pugnacity as Wilson So they
are we'll matched, being both Eastern men
both determined men-b1th architects o.
their own fortunes both Generals aud
adopts in the fighting business.
