CorRrEons PREsIDENT.

An exchange is reminded OF a clrcum'
stance which occurred towards the CLOSE
of General Jackson's Presidency. dis
tiuguished lady OF the Court OF William
", then King of Eng and, being aooot
to visit this country, was made the pear
er Of an autograph letter from his MaJesty
to the President, inviting him 10 visit
England as soon as released from the
cares of Office. The lady in due time ar,
rived at the White House, accompanied
by the Hon. James Buchanan, who sough'
the President to inform him OF the III
tended compliment. He found hlm IN
his dressing>room, seated in his easy chair;
with a comfortable old wrapper around
him, and a beard of two or three DAYS
growth, smoking his fayorite pipe. he
| said he would be with the lady In 1e"
minutes; and on Mr.. Buchanan's ven
| turing to suggest, as he retired, that on
such an occasion a little more than ordl-
nary attention to his toilet might De
proper, the old General shrewd!y eyed
him, and simply replied: "Buchanan,
once knew man who made fortune oy
attending to his own business" The hln'
was sufficient. In very short tune ne
made his appearance, clean shaved ane
handsomely dressed, and received tn
lady and royal letter with all that grac
and courtesy of manners for which d
was so distin guished. She afterwards re
marked that she had visited many Eu

! more elegant gentleman than Rreslden

Judges of the competency OF their own
members. The radical majority is heavy
The South must remain in state OF Vas>
salace for at least two years longer, unless
State action, and the action Of the people,
will enable the President to overcome
this majority. We have our choice either
to accept the terms offered, or MAINTAIN
our nresent danqerous status for years TO
come.
Bearing in mind that the great queS-
tions, for which four years OF war ha's
been waged. have been decided against Us

following fearful prophecy. We advise
everybody to 60 right on with his bust
ness, and not be alarmed with the thing.
1t may not be true: Il observe by the
planets that dreadful plague will COM
mence in Russia, originating from silks
brought over from Cairo, Egypt and Tur-
key. 1t will extend across the Baltic Sea,
and will desolate Germany, cause I'M
mense mortality in England, and then
spread to the United States. This dread
iul epidemic will spot the people like a
leopard, and turn the flesh to a purple
black. The pestilence will carry off such
an amount OF mortals that there will not
be enough left to bury the dead, or give
them Christian burial. The streets o
cities, towns and villages will be swarmed
with the dead and dying. The groan'
and wells of horror, will fill every breas
with horror and CONSERVATION. On al
sides confusion will abound. The deatt
knell will cease to toll, as the malad.
