Buchanan and Jacob Thompson.

Interview in Memphis Appeal
Speaking of General Thomas L. Clingman s
reflections upon him and the late President
Buchanan, Mr.. Thompson said:
If my memory serves me well, the exact
conversation | had with Mr.. Buchanan about
going to North Carolina was about this: Will
there be any objection to my visiting North
Carolina" asked him. ! don't know he
replied. How long will you be gone?
About three or four days l said and then
asked if he thought it would be best for me
to resign before going. Why do you ask
thatp Mr.. Buchanan inquired. Because
go there as the agent of Mississippi, and my
aim is to try and bring about a pacifcation
of the trouble between the Northern and
Southern States, and in any event 10 per-
suade North Carolina not to secede until the
movement, if it must come, is general and
all the Southern States join in it, IF you
go as pacificator have no objection, and
see no reason why you should resign but If
you go to persuade North Carolina to secede
from the Union, do object most emphati-
cally,' was Mr.. Buchanan's reply. Mr..
Thompson remarked that he had nothing
further to say except he had never changed
his views regarding secession; but he had
often been misunderstood and misconstrued.
He was not in favor of any Southern State
leaving the Union unless all did so, at one
and the same time"

him to Africa After his arrival he gave
one of his countrymen residing there cud,
and almost Immediately nearly every Amer

This is nearly one-quarter of the entire an
nual revenues of Great Britain, which are q
little over SAG, COO 000--the nation which
masauerades under the guise of free trade
but lays duty on imports wherever it is her
selfish interest to do so. Her tariff and rev.
enues from imports are about half the sum
laid on imports by this country under form
er laws, but according to the best estimates
more than half the sum to be raised from
this source under our present tariff law.

in the Journal last week. sentence was so

written that the latter received so TO $50 per

TRUTHS

The blood is the foundation of
life, it circulates through every part
of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
If disease has entered the system
the only sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enrich the
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition; and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blacken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
Browns IRON BITTERS will thor
oughly and quickly assimilate with
the blood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from
any part of the system, and it will
not blacken the teeth, cause head
ache or constipation, and is posi-
lively not injurious.
