THE NEW NORTHWEST.
MR. CALHOUN.

Probably the proper estimate or impress
sion Of the moral and social characteristics
Of Mr.. Calhoun was more mistaken than
that of any other conspicuous man In the
country. lie was regarded as sort of ali.
sirAction IA cold Journalist. Without tender.
ness Of feeling or warmth OF hcart-a
designing. ambitious man. whose aspirations
for power and schemes of aggradnizcmcnt
SO absorbed him rs to chill his natural af.
lection and unfit him for domestic life In
respect to his intellectual structure the
country had fallen into no such fundament.
81 error. 1t was supposed that his hcretical
notions Of government and some Of his fanci.
full theories were supported with ingenious
sophi.try. but his Vas! powers OF mind and
great public services were generally rccoy.
nizcd. The truth is. he was not only
more purely intellectual man than any of
his contemporaries. but IN private life he ~as
genial, courteous, and affcctionate. with the
playfulness and simplicity Of a child. In
the company of ladies and young people Of
both sexes he was one Of the most interest.
ing and charming men in the world. lie
was always natural. cordial and earnest. and
adapted his conversation 10 the taste and
capacity Of those who surrounded him with
exquisite taste and grace. lie was never dc.
mons,ra.ivc or voluble III society. but even
Mr.. Clay himself was no greater favoritc
than Mr.. Calhoun with those who knew
and appreciated him. Unlike Mr.. Clay. he
was patient Of contradiction. and invited
the most critical examination of his doc
trincs and opinions, contidcn. of his nbi!-
ity TO uphold them against all corners. lie
was fond Of metaphysics, and in the acute
ness Of his mind he had no equal cotempo.
rarics. Probably he more resembled Mr..
Jefferson in that respect than any other h,an
Of his day. His style, both rs an orator
and writer, was tersc and condensed TO a
great degree rarely equaleI. He was the
most difficult man to report in Congress.
lie spoke with extraordinary tiucncy and
rapidly, at times uttering short, pregnant
sentences that had the force of a round shot,
and then running into prolonged and
involved sentence that required sharp
man 10 follow and comprehend lie was
always courteous in debate. never mingling
personality with argument unless in rcpel

gave way TO his feelings and shed tears like
a woman while Col. Benton, who was at
