TUE PREsIDES1.s LAST INTERVIEW WITH GovEsxos
National Inteliigeneer, referring to
the visit Of President Buchaan to the dcathbcd Of
the late Postmaster General Brown, on Monday
night at II o'clock says:
As Mr.. Buchanan was about to leave the room,
which he had quietly entered and from which he
was noiselessly departing, Mrs. Brown remarked to
her husband that the President had called to inquire
into the condition Of his health He quickly an
swered that he would be glad to see him; hearing
which Mr.. Buchanan returned to his bedside. Mr..
Brown remarked, Mr.. Buchanan, have endeavor-

been successful, and that the whole country would
attest to his fidelity public officer and the sue
cess that had attended his administration of the de-
partment; and, while commiserating his suffering
condition, expressed hope for his restoration to

for hope had passed. and with evident feeling having
thanked the President for the uniform Kindness
which he had extended to him and his family, bade
him adieu. In a few hours he was no more.

to alter it. whenever it fails to accomplish the object
for which it was framed No statesman ever sup
posed that constitution framed in 1776, or even in
1885, would be adapted to all the circumstances and
meet all the wants of the State in $3.50. It was
doubtless expected that succeeding generations
would alter it to suit themselves But suppose they
did not contemplate its alteration, have We not as
much right to alter the constitution as our fathers
had to frame it in 1776 or as those who altered it
in 1885 If then, Mr.. Speaker, We have the right
to alter the constitution and the interests o. the peo
pie demand it, what danger is to be apprehended by

pie requires the alteration, is it not cur duty Is
faithful representatives to make it :? And if their
representatives refuse to consult their interest and
make the proposed alteration, will not the people in
the exercise Of their sovereign power, make the al

to do it, and they will do il.
