tne SOFAS, and entered into familiar copvareo-
tlon with him, when to his amazement tbe
old soldier said: General jackson 7 bave

politicians want to take it from me. and tbev
know have nothing else to live upon ,; m,
President made no reply, till the aged most
master began to take off his coat in the most
excited manner, when Old Hickory broke out
with the inquiry: What in Heavens name
are you going to do? Why do you take off
your coat in this public place?' ''Well, sir,
am going to show you my wounds which
received in fighting for my country against
the Engllsh?, PUT it on, at once, sirl' was
the reply. Il am surprised that man of
your age should make such an exhibition of
himself" and the eyes Of the iron President
were suffused with tears, as without another
word he bade his ancient foe good evening.
The very next night the crafty and able New
York politician called at the White House
and sent in his card. He was Immediately
ushered into the presence, and found jack
son In loose gown and slippers sitting before
blazing wood fire quietly smoking his long
pipe. After the ordinary courtesies had been
exchanged, the politician opened his budget
lie represented the district from which the
venerable postmaster hailed; said the latter
had been known as a very active advocate of
John Quincy Adams; that he had literally
forfeited his place by his earnest opposition
TO the Jackson men, and that, if he were net
removed the new administration would be
seriously injured. He had hardly finished
the last sentence, when Jackson sprang to
his feet, flung his pipe into the fire, and ex-
claimed, with great vehemence, 81 take the
consequences, sir; 1 take the consequences

more than pound of British lead in his

New AnecdOte Of Jackson.

After Jackson's first election in 1928,
strong effort was made to remove Gen. -,
an old revolutionary soldier, at that time post
master in one of the principal New York
towns. He had been so fierce an Adams
man that the Jackson men determined to
displace him. Silas Wright had just left his
seat as a representative in Congress from
New York, and was precisely the man to head
a movement against the old postmaster. His
influence with Jackson was boundless. His
force in debate made him match for the
giants themselves; and as Van Buren, was
then Jackson's Secretary of State, the COM
bination was powerful. The old postmaster,
knowing that these two political masters were
against him, went to Washington, called up
the President Immediately upon his arrival,
and was most courteously received and re-
quested to come again, which he did several
times, but nothing was said about the post
office. The old postmaster heard from his
friends that the important document was on
its way, so he resolved on coup de main.
The next, day there was Presidential recep-
ton, and among the early visitors was Gen.
-. After a cordial greeting by Jackson,
he quietly took his seat and waited until the
long train of visitors had duly saluted the
nations chief and passed through the grand
east room on their way home The President
