A STORY OF GEN. JACKSON.

A correspondent OF the Tribune tells this
story
A prominent gentleman in this State toll mo,
on unquestiOnable authority, a "Reminiscences of the
days Of notification. Il seems that Gov. Letcher,
of kentucky, who sympathiEed with the nullifers
of 1882, called upon Gen. jackson to learn, il
possible, what the General intended to do toward
crushing Calhoun's conspiracy against the Union.
The Governor opened The subject mildly, and
jackson only answered by telling Letcher to read
a certain INSTRUMENT Of writing on tho table before
them. Letcher read it, and found IL to be q war
rant for the execution Of John G. Calhoun. "But,
my dear General, you don't intend to carry out
what this paper calls fOri' "Gov. Letcher, is my
name signed to that psperi" Eyes, General, it
49," VERY well, Governor; it is very seldom
that sign papers merely for effect. Governor,
look on the left corner Of the paper; is the seal of
'he United States to itf" at is, General" Gov
ernor Letcher visited Mr.. Calhoun after he lief,
Gen. jackson, and awakening him out Of his
sleep related 70 him bis interview, with Cen. Jack
sou. Gov. Letcher alleged shat Mr.. Calhoun as
sumed the appearance OF q ghoet. when he heard
what Gen. Jackson intended to do, and nullifca-
tion lost al. its venom from that hour. Gen. jack
son said on his death-bed that be had only one
thing to regret, and that was that be had not hung
John G. Calhoun"
The above item is going the rounds of tho pa
pers, and we publish it to show what kind of stuff
the people are expected to believe. II we could,
we would attach to it as its future attendants, the
following suggestive facts.
No person can be legally a~djudged guilty Of
treason, except upon the testimony of two persons
to on overt act. Before their testimony 10 furnish
ed for his conviction, he must first be indicted BY
a Grand Jury in the State where the act was al
legged to be committed; he must then be tried by q
Petit Jury in the same State, aud before a U. S.
Court for that State. Seeing tina. Calhoun was
never convicted, never tried, never indicted, the
death warrant referred to above, if signed by Gen.
Jackson as alleged, was utterly destitute Of legal
authority and binding force! To affirm that Gen.
signed such a warrant, is to be-litile the
intelligence of 'Oid Hickory"

THE ANTI-sLAvERf BUGLE.
AN ORIoINAk IDEA.

DutThF The progress Of the Lucy case. Commits.
sioner White said,
III the prisoner is proved to be a slave in yir-
ginia, and that she escaped from there, / shall give
q certificate to her owner to take her back. II
this is not proved, she will not be taken back. y
The daUe ,oas brought 10 Ohio by her masters child
she Is not .Gree-the ward cdnYf6t deprive the master
Of property"
This is a remarkable position for even q U. s.
ComthissiOner to take. Doubtless the stakeholder
will thank him for II, for II would be very conve-
nient for the Miss Goshorns Of the South to bring
their Lucys and Betseys with them when they
visit Ohio. and for the Master GOshorus 10 come
with their Caesars and Johns; and ali that is nee.
essary to establish the right to hold these servants
as StaUes upon Ohio soil. is, tho, Pas 6ohsen,
should not be asked to bring them here.
The most distinguished j~urists Of tho COUNTRY
recognize the fact that 80 for as slavery has any
legal support, i, is sustained only BY local law.
The U. s. Constitution in tho single case Of an
escaping slave provides a Substitute for the local
law by which he is held, and seizes and retutht
him as q fugitive slave; but that is The only eAcep-
ton, and proves the rule. A slave in Virginia
would have to obey the commands of his young
master or mistress, even when commanded to &c:
company them to Ohio; but according to Commits
sioner White, the moment the travelling party
crosses the Ohio river, The authority of the slave
holders children cease, and they are no more re
sponsible for the status Of the slave upon Ohio
soil, than is the horse upon whose back he rode
and the servant who was brought into Ohio, be
comes transformed BY this trick Of legal legerde
main into a fugitive slave.
The principle that a ward cannot deprive 6
guardian Of his properly is correct, but Commits
sioner White makes q great mistake in assuming
"a a premise, that in Ohio the slave is property
His premise being false, bis conclusion falls to thu
ground.

PARKER PILLBURY's LECTURE.

We had neither time nor space last week to ad-
vert to Mr.. Pillsbury's lecture on Tuesday eve
ming, for the bene6. of Kansas. His subject was
Foreign travel, and its lessons." As Mr.. P. is
not one Of those who, having eyes, see not, aud
having ears, hear not, he presented to his auditors
some beautiful gems Of thought descriptive of the
scenes he had witnessed abroad, and unfolding the
deep and holy teachings which come to the an
nointed sou! when viewing the venerable and stu
pendous works Of Art, or holding converse with
the sublime and beautiful scenes of Nature.
His descriptions and Illustrations we're calcula-
ted to impress the minds. as we'll as to enchain the
attention Of his auditors. They saw with him the
piles of massive stones, the broken arches, and
the iragmentary columns of the old Abbeys of Eng
land, tina. perchance for ten centuries had borne
record OF the religious zeal and willing sacrifice,
as well as the artistic skill Of those who laid the
foundation stones and put the cornice in it's place.
They entered with him the mighty Cathedral a,
Antwerp, with Its one hundred and twenty-five
massive columns sustaining a ceiling whose alti.
:ude exceeded that Of Bunker Hill Monument by
forty feet they beheld the morning sunlight
streaming with softene3 Yadience through its
many windows of stained glass, whose span was
one hundred feet and they saw the mixed multi
tude Of worshirpers where color, aud cline, and
cast, and station were all unnoted and forgotten
they heard the swelling tones Of the mighty organ
pouring forth thunder-peals Of melody, that came
echoed back and sOftened from the distant arches
and arebitraves as though Heaven itself were re.
spending to the prayers of the worsbippers. And
passing from ART to Nature, he led his auditors in
presence of the unspeakable majesty and gran
duer of The snow-crowned Alps, where they stood
lifting their heads to the very heavens. and bear
ing enstamped upon them as with their Creators
siguet ring, the testimony Of His mighty power,
before which man reverently bent in awe and in
silence.
The lecture was repiete with beauty and in-
s~truction and those who heard it, ss well as those
who only heard Of it. we're exceedingly DESTROYS
that Mr.. P should repeat 1t, but his engagements
we're such he could not do so. When a man pos
sessing such talent and intellect as does Mr. Pills
bury, gives a lecture in Salem, il is safer TO 20 the
first time, than to wait for the second, tOhich may
not come.

WHAT A WOMAN SAYS"

Some enquiry has been made as to the writer Of
the letter In our last Issue but one, 10 which, IN
der the above caption. the question is asked re-
specting the General Assembly, where did the
people find so many foolsf"
As the letter was not designed for publication,
the name was not given, but we presume the
writer-Mrs. AFTER of SalinevilIe-wil have nc
objection to gratifying those who are curious in
regard to the matter. Mrs. A. is q woman who
is fully responsible for what che says, and never
shrinks from the burden Of proof. II the utter
humiliation of the Legislature at the feet OF the
slave power, is characterized as nuthing worse
than folly. that body is beyond doubt tenderly
dealt with.
the editor Of the Cincinnati Daily Press, q paper
with which we ore not personally acquainted, but
are informed, is Republican in politics. An article
of upwards of q column in length on ''The Ohio
Legislature" commences thus T.
"This body is laundering in a constantly accu,
~mulating mass of unnecessary, iEconsiderate, fool
ISL, KNAvIsH and ATROCIOUS legislation. We
are weighing our words, and mean what we say
and could justly add several more qualifying terms
equally discreditable."
"B61~The Presbytery Of Philadelphia up hal
memorialized the General Assembly to prohibit
she marriage OF professors Of religion with irreli
gious PERSONS"
And should the Presbyterian General Assembly
legislate as requested, it would be q more sensible
movement than vas that which produced the anti
amalgamation law Of the General Assembly OIL
Ohio; though in both cases marriage would b.
taken measurably from the control Of the indlti
duals most interested in the mstter-the partie,

AN ASswER.-Llncoln, in his Indianapolis
speech asks the following question.
"Ifa State and a County in a given case, should
be equal in extent of territory. and oquel in num-
Der Of inhabitants, in what, as a matter Of princi-
pie, Is the State better than the County :"
We take it for granted that any one is at liberty
to reply, although the propounder evidently
thought it a question that could not be answered.
A County, however densely populated, is but a
part OF a States territory, and not q constituent
portion Of q State government. 1t possesses no
sovereignty, and has no absolute rights. A State
is organized withOu: any reference to the Counties
existing within its borders. Counties delegate no
power 10 their representatives to call the State in
to being, and Invest it with no authority. Blot
out every County within its borders, and the State
government moves on the same. The Counties
are dependencies, the State is Sovereign. The
State can create Counties, and it can become one
or others to create Q Federal Union. Blot oGt the
States Of the Union one by one, and the Union
itself lie annihilated; for the creature dies, when
its creators, who formed it out Of themselves, have
ceased to exist. Counties are not Sovereign. A
fedesative government is not Sovereign. States
are Sovereign. They create Counties they ere.
ate Federal Unions. The Creator can become the
Destroyer, but the creatures can become neither.
