Ray- The Anamosa Eureka says that
the people Of Anamosa are fully alive to
the importance of building our North
and South r liroad, and that John Mer-
rift, living near Rome says that he will
not only give the right of way through
his land. but will grade it at his own ex-
pense. When will our farmers see their
own interest, and come up to the help of

A STORY Of Gen. Jackson.

= A-corrsspondent of the Tribune tells
this story: a
A prominent gentleman in this State,
told me, on unquestionable authority, .
"Reminiscences Of the days of notification.
1t seems that Gov. L.tcher,o of Kentucky,
who sympsthized with the uullifers Of
1882, called upon Gen. Jackson, to learn,
if possible, what the General intended to
do towards crushing Calhoun's conspiracy
against the Union. The Governor opeu-
ed the subject mildly and Jackson only
answered by telling Letcher to read a
certain instrument of writing on the ia
bic before them. Lctcher read it, aud
found it to be a warrant for the execution
of John c. Calhoun. But, my dear
General, you don't intend to carry out
what this paper calls for % Governor
Letcher. is my named signed to that pa
PERI Yes, General, it is " Every
well, Governor; it is very seldom that |
sign papers merely for effect. Governor,
Look on the left corner of that prper is
the seal of the United States to it ?'-
" 1t is, General" Governor Letcher
visited Mr.. Calhoun after he had left
Gen jackson, and awakening him out of
his sleep, related to him his interview
with Ge3. Jackson. Gov. Letcher al.
legged that Mr.. Calhoun assumed the ap.
pearance of a ghost when he heard what
General Jackson intended to do, and
nulliication lost all its venom from that
hour. Gen. jackson said on his death
bed that he had only one thing to regret,
and that was that he had not hung John
c. Calhoun

cy- Some men who are not acquainted
with all the circumstance s, are disposed
to blame Mr. Lincoln for passing through
Baltimore as he did. Mr.. Lincoln was
himself opposed to it, but when he was
advised to do so by Ger. Scott and other
friends, he consented.
Four years ago, Mr.. Buchanan was
treated w;,hercat ,1irui'y in Baltimore,
and left the city in ciandestne manner.
Is it not about time that our National
Capital was removed to a more respecta-
bic part of the Union?
