From Patton's Life of Andrew Jackson.
Gen. jackson and Sam Dale.


AT the height of the notification excitement
Gen. Sam Dale, OF Mississippi, an old friend
of Jacksons called on him at the presidential
mansion, and the manner in Which the en-
crossing topic repeatedly breaks out in the
course ofcOnversalion on other matters, shows
that it was uppermost in tile old hero,s mind.
"By the God OF heaven" he exclaimed, II
will uphold the laws" And in repeating the
the determination lie flung down his pipe by
way of empllc >, shivering 1t into fragments.
After the first shaking of hands, the narrative
OF the visit proceeds as follows:
1--WE walked into his reception room, and
was introduced to Col. Benton and five or six
other distinguished men. They were all very
civil, and invited me TO visit them. They
were talking over notification, the engrossing
subject at that period, and the president, turn
ing to me, said, Gen. Dale, # this thing goes on,
our country ,ciN be like bag of meal 'cih both
ends open. Pick 1t up in the middle or endeclse,
and it tcW run out / MUST TIE THE BAG AND
SAVE THE COUNTRY. The company now took
leave, but when l rose to retire with Col. King
the General detained me, ordered up some
whisky, and directed his servant to refuse all
visitors until one o'clock. He talked over our
campaigns, then of the business that brought
me TO Washington. He then said Sam, you
have been true to your country, but you have
made one mistake in life. You are now old
and solitary, and without bosom friend or
family to comfort you. God called mine away.
But all have achieved-fame, power, every
thing-woudI exchange if she could be re-
stored to me for moment

for some time covered his face with his hands,

cation again, his mind evidently having re.
Cured to it, and l expressed the hope that
things would go right.
"Ihey SHALL go right sir" he exclaimed,
passionately, shivering his pipe upon the ia
Bile.
"He Gained down after this, and showed me
his collection of pipes, many of most costly
and curious kind, sent to him from every quar-
ter, his propensity for smoking being well
known.-'These, said he, will do to look at

CAMP POETRY.
IFitz James o'Brien is private in the New York
Seventh Regiment, and while his comrades were ex
ercisng their muscles in repairing bridges between
Annapolis and Washington, exercised his pen in
producing the following rolicking song:l
Air ella Maehree
OH we're the bows
That hearts desthroys
Wld making love and fighting
We take fort,
The girls we court,
but most the last delight in.
10 fire gum
Or raise some fun
10 us is no endeaYor,
So let us hear
One hearty cheer
The Seventies lads forever
Chorus-For we're the bows
That hearts DESTROYS,
Mld making love and fighting,
We take fort,
The girls court,
But most the last delight in.
There's handsome Joe,
Whose constant flow
OF merriment unfailing
upon the tramp,
Or in the camp,
Will keep our hearts from ailiug,
And B. and Chat,
Who might have sat
For Pythias and Damon;
Oh whin they get
Their heavy wet,
They get as high Haman.
Chorus-For we're the boys
That hearts DESTROYS sc.
Like Jove above
We're fond of love
But fonder still of victuas,
Wild turtle steaks
An Goldfish cakes,
We always fills our kittles.
10 dhrown aich dish
" e drinks like fish,
And Mumm's the word we luther
An thln we Swill
Our Leoyille,
That oils our Threats like butther
Chorus-For we're the BOYS
That hearts destroys, &C.
We make from hay
spndid tay,
From beans gorgeous coffee
Our crane is prime
Wild chalk and.ime-
In fact, It's quite trophy.
Our chickens roast
Wild butthered toast,
I'm sure would tmpt ST. Pether:
Now you'll declare
Our bill of fare
1t couldn't be complether.
Chorus-FoI we're the bows
That hearts destroys, &C.
Con Erpyessions
Now silence all,
W lille recall
memory sweet and tender;
The maids and wives
That light our lives
Win deep enduring splendor.
Wen give no cheer
For those dear,
But In our hearts We'll bless them
And pray tonight,
That angels bright
May watch them and caress them
Chorus-For we're the bows
That hearts destroys,
Wild mBkin' love and fighting;
We take fort,
The girls we court
But most the last delight in.
