The Toledo (Ohio) Conmerctai says
that barber IN that city, who formerly
operated in Boston, preserves Is q momen-
to lock Of hair which he cut from Webs
ter's head short time before the death OF
the great Senator. 1t is not white; but an
iron gray, shd We cut from his head three
morths before be died. The Revere House
was Webster's Boston stopping place. On
July 9, 1852, the great public reception
was given him by almost The commonweal- h

also come down in hie.ory, and bow the
heart of the nation throbbed to tie great
statesman, since every tfadesnan in the
land tells the story Of his greatness, and
how be was beloved 1t was at this time
that he delivered his speech which contsio-
ed at the close these words.

working civilian, giving my life end my
health and my strength to the maintenance
Of the Constitution, and the upbolding, &C
cordinc to the best of my ability, under the
providence Of God, the liberties of my
county"
1t was in the evening following the de-
livery OF this speech that Webster stepped
into the barber-shop after his return to the
Revere House, and " as shaved and had bis
hair cut by John Carrao, who preserved
the lock, perhaps the last time his hair was
ever cut. When the tonsor lad finished,
Webster arose and called to Charles G..

which he usually wore, Carrao also remem-
bered that be said: Johnnie, don't you
think we ought to have a new bat?" and
that be wore brown-black suit, with coat
collar of black velvet, and low standing
collar. The BARRIERS also particularise and
say that he was always genial, had smooth
face, was slightly bald, with hair rather
long, and brushed forward in lear locks"

1t will be re remembered that the District
of Columbia originally embraced a tract
OF ten miles square, coded to the United
States by Virginia and Maryland, as the
permanent capital of the United States,
and subject only to the laws of the Gem
eral Government. The tract is divided
by the Potomac river, about one>half for.
merly belonging to each State. Some
years since, at the first dawn of seces-
sionism, upon the application Of politi.
cians of the Virginia Legislature, the
United States coded back to Virg MIA its
half orig Dally contributed to the ten
miles square, and it has been considered
part of that State ever since. The valid
ity Of this act Of retrocession comes before
the United States Supreme Court at its
session which commences to>day, In the
case Of Phillips vs. Payne, on appeal from
the Supreme Court of the District Of
Columbia. This case involves the legal
ity of the retrocession of the Virginia
half of the District to the State of Vir-
ginia. The District Court affirmed the
validity of the transfer. The appellant
will at an early day Of the term make ap,
plication tothe Supreme Court to advance
the calendar. He has consulted the At
torney General of the United States, who
thinks it of grave Importance that the
case should be early decided. The point.
upon which the appellants rely are :Filst.
that when accepting the session of Vir.
ginia, Alexandria became a part of the
permanent capital of the United States
and Congress had no constitutional power
to pass a law changing that relation
second, that the act of retrocsssion is in.
valid because it was made dependent fol
its force and effect upon the votes of q
majority of voters of Alexandra, and
Congress had no power to delegate to i
legislative functions. The State Of Vir.

VET SATISFY ED.


The Democratic party in this. end of
the district is not satisfied with the Con.
servative nominee for Congress, and from
what We can learn will not give Mr.. Nc
Farland a very warm support. We copy
the following from the editorial columns
Of the Johnson City Times a Democratic
paper which we are inclined to believe
expresses the sentiments of the party in
this section.
IVA would got advise our readers.
especially those Of the Democratic party.
ia form any rash conclusion in regard to
the present situation in the first Congress-
sionsl District, although it is evident that
Abe claims Of the party have been entire
~ IgEolsd by the Democratic Convention,
which met at Greeneville, on the first
INST, and presented to the public Sufi>
eient evidence Of their i~ncipcerity to the
party they were supposed to represent il
the Withdrawal of the names of men
whose political c%omplexiens were unmis-
taxable, and in the nomination Of third
or middle man, in the person of VIM.
Mcfarland, who may be a good man, and
worthy Of the nomination, yet we consider
it bad policy on the part of the Demo.
cratic party to nominate a candidate for
Congress, after declaring from the outset
that they would not make a nomination,
or allow a man Of the party to make the
race, even after the names of good men
wcre before the people. Sullivan county

convention and declares that il will not
cooperate in the election Of Mcfarland,
and this is the expressed opinion Of some
Of our best citizens, since the murder OF
Colonel George 3. Mcclellan, Vance
kirkpatrick, and others in the bosse Of
their friends(O. 1t is charged that the
Convention was gotten up in the interest
of aspiring Republicans, or men who were
not Unidentified With any party. How
this is We will not attempt to say. but VIC
do knowthat it was composed largely OIL
defeated candidates, whose animus to the
Democratic party is plainly exhibited il
action Of the Convention, knowing that {
nomination for Congress was the absolute
defeat Of nine oat of eleven candidate
for the State Legislature, causing til,
withdrawal Of a number of Democratic
candidates for the State Senate and there
BY materially injuring Andrew johnson
chances for the United States Senate.
We must, therefore, decline to engag
actively in the canvass or support tb
usmocratic(? p nominee. The Republica
party Is rapidly recognizing throuchou
the upper counties, and where party line
were the most successfully broken dow
in the last election they are completed

Abe Democrats to stand by their candi
