TAzEWELI. AND CALHOUN. pon the al
jourmcnt Of Congress, VIC forget in what year,
Messrs John Tyler, Littleton Waller Tazewell,
and John &. Calhoun returned home by the
way Of Fredericksburg.
In days when there was no railroad from
Fredericksburg, travellers did not hurry along
as they 60 now. On the occasion Of the story
to which We refer, the three gentlemen above
mentioned arrived in Fredericksburg about
dark and put up ct hotel. Alter supper they
went out into the porch and were 5000, in COM
pany with some other congressman, engaged
in an animated political discussion, of which
Mr.. Calhoun and Mr.. Tazewel cngrcssed the
chief part. Hour alter hour passed rapidly by
until ! | o'clock, when they began to drop off
one by one. Mr. Tyler, however, remained
listening to the two great men till one in the
morning, when, being jadcd by travel, he re-
luctantiy retired TO his room.
The stage for Richmond started early in the
morning, and when Mr. Tyler came down he
enquired ior Mr.. TszewcII. He was answered
that he was in the porch. 10 went out and
there ne found Mr.. t. and Mr.. Calhoun still
engaged in earnest conversation. They had
been discussing constitutional questions all
night. The stage driver blew his horn and the
three got into the vchiole and proceeded to
Richmond, at which point Mr.. Calhoun left
the party for the South.
Alter bidding him goodbye, Mr.. Tyler asked
Mr.. Tazewell why he had not gone to led at
Fredericksburg? The reply of Mr.. Tsz,wcll
was that Mr.. Calhoun had so much interested
him that he had 90 wish to retire, adding:
