to the weather, and was suffering severely with a
bad cold aud sore throat. tnight we bivouack-
ed in muddy bottom, while it was pouring
down rain, which froze as il fell Ny brother
John and /, finding that he was unwell, became
uneasy about him, although he did not complain,
and laid down upon the blanket by the camp FIRE
with his soldiers. Seeing him wet to the skin,
stretched in the mud and water in his suffering
condition, we determined to try and make him
more comfortable.
ave cut down a stout hickory tree, in which
the sap was rising, and peelng the bark from it
| in large flakes cut two forAs and pole, laid
| down floor of bark and dead leaves, and rooted
| il and closed one side, or rather one end of the
structure, against the wind with back, and left
| the other open. We then dried our blankets,
| and made him pallet in the tent We had con-

with some difficulty persuaded him to crawl in

blankets, and his feet to the fire. he slept snugiy
and soundly ALI night, well cured in hickory
bark.
1.-The next morning an old man from the neigh
borhood came into camp with a jug of whiskey,
with which, after imbibing quite freely himself,
he gave US all treat as far the liquor would

patriotic old fellow; a sort of privileged char
acter' in his country. While staggering abou,
the camp fires full of fun and whskes he blum.
imme diatey arrested his attention. After eye
ing it for a moment he exclaimed: What sort
of an ou;landsh Indian fxin' is this and gave
it a kick, which tumbled down the queer old
looking structure, and completely buried the
old hero in bark. As he struggled out of the
ruins, and looked fercely around for the author
of the mischief, the old topper recognized him ant
exclaimed: Hello Old Hickory; come out o.
your bark and join US in a drink"
There was something SO ludicrous in the whole
scene, that respect for his presence and rarl
conld not restrain our merriment. He very ZOO
humoredly joined US in laughing at the mishap.-
As lie rose up and shook the bark from him, W,
gave him u Uipd "Hurrah for Old Hickory" Thi
was the first time he heard these words
which afterwards shouted by the millions o
his countrymen whenever he appeared among
them.
l will only add that Capt. VIM. Allen, of Da
wilson county, Tenn, who died in Pototoc, il
1887, distinguished for courage, integrity anC
strict veracity; and the above may be regarded
as a true account of the origin OF the NICKNAME
of Gen. Andrew jackson.

brother John served as soldiers in his escort, in

R~The opponents of the new Con-

Secretary Of State, before the returns in
his possession were counted, that he

have been resorted to elsewhere than in
