MIR. Buchanan's style Of living. since his re-
turn home, Is, as 1t always has been when here,
plain aud unostentatious. Occasionally, he is
visited by some of his personal friends, who
are treated with the hospitality which we might
expect to receive from polite, well informed
country gentleman-''one of the olden time"
His four years association among the refined
and brilliant circles of Washington has not, In
the slightest degree, disposed him in his retire
ment to initiate the fash and fashion which
blazed around him thefe. Everything is quiet
and upobtrusive, strictly in accordance with the
Democracy Of the old school, and entirely strip
ped Of its court tinsel or its mimickry. AL.
though theowner ofas fine span Of horses as !
have ever seen, and q superb carriage, he pre-.
| fers walking into the city to church on Sunday
morning, aud during the week to the postofice,
where he can usually be found. This will net
be the case, however, after the Republican, hfr
Cochran, and his assistants, have taken posses
sion, But no doubt his quarters will be then
equally agreeable. He discusses little now
about Government affairs, his appetite In rela-
tion to them, no doubt, having long since beer
fully satisfied; and quite as little of prominent
and distinguished men; his experience, like tha
of many others, being that they are not always
/ the safest counselors, or those in whom the larg
