Mr.. Parton tells the following story Of
Gen. Jacbson's wife;
When General Jackson was a candi-
date for the Presidency in 1928, not on
| ly did the party opposed to him abuse
him for his public acts, which, uncousti-
tutional or violent, were a legitimate
subject Of reprobation, but they DETAINED
the character Of his wife. On one occR-
sion a newspaper published in Nashville
was laid upon the Generals table. He
glanced over Il, and his eyes fell upon an
article in which the character Of Mrs.
johnson was violently assailed. So soon
as he had reed il he sent for his trusty
old servant Dunwoodie.
"Saddle my horse" said he 20 him in
a whisper, "Ond put my holsters on him. I"
Mrs. Jackson watched him, and though
she heard not n word she thought she
saw mischief in his eyes. The General
went out, after a few moments when she
took up the paper and understood every
thing. She ran out to the south gate Of
the yard Of the Hermitage, by which the
General would have TO pass. She had
not been there more than few seconds
before the General rode upwith the coun-
tenance of a madman. She placed her
self before his horse, and cried out.
"Oh, General, don't 90 to Nashville!
Let that poor editor live! Let that poor
editor liveg"
"Let me Rlonew he replies, chow came
you to know what ! am going forl"
She answered,
81 saw il all in his paper after you
went out, but put up your horse and 20
back"
He replied furiously,
"But | will go-get out ofthe way!"
Instead of doing this, she grusped his
bride with both hads.
He cried to her, r
81 say let 90 my horse; I'll have his
hearts blood-the villain that reviles my
wife shall not liver
She grasped the reins but the tighter,
and began to expostul0te with him, cay
ing that she was the one who ought to bo
angry, but that she forgave her persecu-
tors from the bottom of her heart, and
prayed for thom---thnt he should forgive
If he had hoped to be forgiven. At last,
by her reasoning, her entreaties and her
tears, she so worked upon her husband
that he seemed Modified to a certain ex-
tent She wound up by saying, "No,
General, you shall not take the life Of g.
ven my reviler-you dare not do il, for Il
is written, vengeance is mine, will
repay saith the Lordl"
The iron-nerved hero gave way before
the earnest pleading of his beloved wife,
and replied,
al yield to you, but had il not been
for you, and the words of the Almighty,
the wretch should not have lived an hour.

Mr.. Breckenridge's letter Of accept
ance will be published tomorrow. Itis
quite lengthy He says he has not sourht
nor desired to be placed before the coun.

presses approval of the action of the
Convention which nominated him, and
says it does not become him 20 shrink
from the responsibilities Of the post to
which he has been assigned. He holds
to the doctrine Of non-intervention by
Congress or Territorial Legislature, ei-
ther to establish or prohibit slavery in
the Territories, and the plain duty of the
Federal Government, when necessary,
10 protect the citizens Of al the States
in the enjoyment of their property with

cludes by expressing the hope that the
canvass may be conducted without ran

ral To show the estimation in which
Mr.. Stambaugh was held by that paper,
only four years ago,we clip the follow
ing from its issue Of June II, 1886:
"An individual uumed Stambaugh, who
halls, we believe, from TuscarawAs coun-
ty, delivered a regular humbug abolition
speech at Georges Hall on Thursday
evening last, Those who heard him say
that he advocated the most abominable
revolutionary doctrines imaginable. He
said he was in favor of collecting money

unwell as to be obliged to keep his
bed for several days, during which
period he had time for many serious
reflections, which terminated in a
resolution to abandon the club and
his licentious companions alt"geth-
err.
He was no sooner we'll, how yer.
than they hocked around him, bent
On recovering so valuable a mem-
Der of their society and having
wrung from him a confession ct the
cause Of his detection, which, as it
may be supposed. they soon con
trived to make him ashamed of his
good resolution. He joined them
again, and resumed his former
course Of life; and when the anru-
al s%aturnalia came around he found
himself with his glass in his hand
at the table; when the President
arising to make accustomed speech
began with saying, Gentlemen,
this being leap year, it is a year
and a day since on: Ia unnecessary
etc. The words struck upon the
young mans ear like a knell! but
ashamed to expose his weakness
t. the jcers of his comrades, he sat
out for the feast, plying himself
with wine even more literally than,
usual, in order to drown his instru-
sive thoughts til in the gloom of
a winters morning he mounted his
horse % ride home.
Some hours afterwards, the horse
was found with his saddle and bride
on. quietly grazing by the road side,
about halfway between the city
and BIS house, whilst a few
yards off lay the corpse OF his mas
ter.
This is true story and no fiction;
the circumstances happened as here
related. An account of it was pub
lished at the time, but the cop;es
were bought up by the family. Tw"
or three, however, were preserved,
and the narrative was reprinted.

No one remedy is louder called for by the
necessities of the American people than a sure

we are now enabled to offer, with a perfect

and with assurance, founded on proof, that
no harm can arise from its use In any guam

That which protects from or prevents this
disorder must be of immense service in the
communities where it prevails. Prevention is
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which hc must run in violent attacks of
this halcful d;stenper. This "CURE" cxpels
the miasmatic poison of FEVER AND AauE
from the system and prevents the develop

proach Of its pre.nonitory symptoms. 1t is
not only the best remedy ever yet discover d
for this class of complaints, but also the
cheapest. The large quantity we supply for
a dollar brings it within the reach Of every
body; and in bilious districts. where FEVER
AND .AGvE prevails, every Dody should have it
and nsc it freely both Tor cure and protection.
It is hope" this price VIII place it within the
reach Of a,l-the poor as we'll as the rich. A
great superiority Of this remedy over any
