The keeper of the boarding house
here when Andrew Jackson. was
President, waited on him one day
and claimed that a Tennesseean who
had been appointed by him to a
clerkship in. one OF the departments
would not pay his board bill. "Get
his note,'' said old Hickory, =" for
the full amount, interest included,
payable in sixty days, and bring it
TO me-"
That will be of no use," replied
the boarding-house keeper, ''for he
never pays his notes.
DO as tel! you, SIR said Jack
son, as he turned away.
~ The next day the clearinghouse
keeper reappeared at the White
House and handed the note TO the
Presidents. He took it, read it, wrote
Andrew jackson across the back in
his well known autograph and han
ded it back, saying 'sTake that to
the Bank of the Metropolis and tell
hem for me that at its maturity it
will be paid by either the drawer or
indorser. They will discount it for
you.'' @
A few days afterward the man who
had given the note meth creditor,
and tauntingly said: 'Well, | don't
suppose you have been able to 1ego-
tiate my paper?' .'Yes." replied
the boarding-house keeper, Il had
no trouble in getting it discounted
at legal rates of interest" .Who
IN thunder is willing to discount my
notes?3 asked the Tennesseean.
The Bank of the Metropolis dis
counted the one you gave me, upon
the assurance that if you did not pay
it the indorser would" "But who
would indorse my note?' fsGeneral
Jackson, and he sent word to the
bank that if you did not pay the note
