The Presidents Policy-A Strong and
Striking Letter from Robert ]. Walker.
At the great Conservative meeting
held in New York on the anniversary
of the birth Of Washington, last Thurs
day evening, the following letter was
read from the Hon. r. j. Walker, one
of hemost influential Union men dur

in favor Of the Union. 1t arrests the

Pulsion of eleven States from the Union,
and .the erection OF eleven Irelands

extinction of republican institutions

he continued, "didlnot issue an order to

These two relnarksof the quondam au.
gust ruler of The Confcderacy, though
of no special Importance, show this
much, at least, thai his once busy brain
is still keenly alert to note passing
events and make Ghis comments upon
them. In his further observations, I
understand he gave credit to President

.rebellious States, of. whom, from first to
last, he has alway4 spoken in terms of
highest praise. ISn informed that since,
he. has been most plainly out spoken

JEFF. Davis, remiutls me to say that the
order issued sometime since, forbidding
officers in attendakce on him to speak to
him or him to then, has been recinded.
Few men can be- horc pleasantly gar.
rulous than Mr.. Davis, when he is in

was only temporarily, and, as many
think, very stupidly debarred, is greatly

His eyes are DARK, handsome and viva

deeply defined tle eyebrows appeared

this might be from his nobility of. fea.

the nostrils, the humorous line running
from them to tha corners Of the mouth

The Last Words Of John c, Calhoun in
the United States SeHatc.
" GuICico Fob ~
CHICAGO, Feb. II.

,Nh'NNeNt - SDs 80
To the Editor of the Chicago Times:
AS an interesting anecdote relating to
the great champion of Southern senti-
ment and the father of secession and re.
bellion in the United States, l send you
the following incltlent, which has never
before appeared in type:
In his last illness, it will be recollec-
ted, Mr.. Calhoun desired to express his
theory of our Government and his views
as to the logical result of the political
principles which then obtained, once
more, as a support to the South and as
a warning to. the people OF the North.
lie was not strong enough to rise in the
Senate and deliver with his customary
freedom and vigor such convictions as
filed ana stirred his soul, but was forced
in sick bed to dictate his views and
the close unerring logic OF his reasoning
to an. amanuensis. A few days after.
ward, in the same session, that Of 1850,
he appeared in his usual place in the
Senate, wrapped and mdAled up, and
looking, but for the keen and undimmed,
lustre OF his eye, more Ikea corpse Than
the living warrior who had crossed Ian.
ces with ablest champions Of human
liberty. Not being able to read his last
great speech himself, at the suggestion
OF another senator it was read in clear
and impressive tone by Mr. Homes, his
colleague from. South Carolina. It pro.
duced profound impression ON the Sen.
ate. Tire garrulous Foote, Of Mississ.
ippi, however, must hurl his pointless
arrows and : inflated eloQuence Mt the
dyiRg statesman, MISUNDERSTANDING and
misrepresenting the sentiments of the
great champion, when the latter, by. the
pjwer of mighty intellect, rose, dcfying
even the inevitable unrelenting grasp Of
death, AMI explained away the weak
objections of his would.be adversary
with his usual clearness and unerring
judgement. TheSenate then adjourned.
Fearing lest his failing voice was not
heard, land anxious that his last words
should be duly recorded, he tottered to
the reporters stand, then occupied by
Mr.. Sutton, an asked, in voice musical.
ly low and sweet, but sad with the pain
OF fading life: "Did you hear me, Mr..
Reporter ~ Upon being assured that
his words were distinctly heard, he bow.
ed, saying: Then am satisfied" He
was then conducted from the. Senate
chamber to hisrooms atthc hotel, where,
a few days afterwards went out one Of
the most brilliant INTELLECTUAL lights of
any co 'ntry or amy age, though devoted,
as is now seen, tcsthe advancement of
doctrines radically wrong and fatal in
their effects on the southern people. ~
These were the last words that fell
from the lips OF Calhoun in the United
States Senate--the arena Of his lietcest
and most wonderful struggles during a.
long series Of years in defence orsup.
posed southern interests.

Corn and Cotton.

eve regret to learn from gentlemen from
this ciey who recently Visited North Caroli-
na, that meny planters allured by the high

chief attention to the culture Of this staple,
ignoring to considerable degree, or wholly
the production Of cereala.
"rhis course is certainly unwise. Il will

Is doomed. The seasons may not be pro-
