Daniel Webster's Memory.
Detroit Free Press. !


Several weeks ago the late James Burns
told how, in 1886, Daniel Webster paid visit
to Detroit and was given reception by the
citizens at the old National hotel 81 was
about 90 years old" said Mr.. Burns, land
had just risen to the distinction of being in
business for myself For that reason, ! sup

a lot Of other young business men, 70 MIR.

''Well, sir, l went fully impressed with the
greatness of Mr.. Webster, and / con-
fess, somewhat elated over the honor
thus accorded me. We all assembled in the
parlor, fifteen or twenty in number. Pres
emily Mr.. Webster entered the room,
and we were introduced. A social, general
chat Of perhaps half an hour followed. Mr..
Webster talking all over the room and with
no one in particular, after which we took our
leave. The remarkable feature which i'm
pressed me was the fact that Mr.. Webster,
who had met fifteen or eighteen ordinary
young men for the first time and that in a
general way, called US all by name and with
out hesitation or mistake as we took our
leave"
I've beard that memory OF names was one
! Of Daniel Websters strong points"
But the story isn't finished" said Mr..
Burns. -Four years later l was in New
York. buying goods. l had not seen or
hardly thought of Mr. Webster in that time.

II was ut a dinner, mainly of railroad ruen
recently where everybody was called on for
speech. MIR. Simon Stevens, late president
OF the Tehuantepec Railway and Canal COM
pany, responded humorou,y, aud apropos of
a legal yarn that had Just been related told
the following as a true story:
When lived down in Pennsylvania thirty.
odd years ago knew James Buchanan prettv
well 1t was years before he was president:
he was merely a prominent LAWYER who
practiced IN the courts Of the county. One
day he asked three or four of his rich cl;enta

Henry Musselman, thriving German
farmer from the next town. .Judoa

day, too. 1t was handsome table, the fine

sprang up in modification and anguish and
exclaimed: ''Mein Colt n Himmell wish

door, hopping his hot face with his gravy
soaked napkin and calculating in broken
fashion In another instant there was n gen.
eral start of dismay around the table as il
they felt the foundations of the earth givinp
way. For Musselman, who came in town on
horseback, had accidentally hooked hi, spu,
firmly into the tablecloth as he turned, and
as he rushed out the door he dragged tho
whole dinner to the floor with jerk! Wher
Buchanan had another dinner cooked and
Musselman tried to apologize, he said h.

A friend in need is a friend indeed This
none can deny, especially when assistance
is rendered when one is sorely afflicted
with disease, more particularly those COM

Virsinia's Electoral Vote i'm 1850.
.e Editor Of, "a DlSpatch :

To tie Editor Of the Dispatch:
You said the other day that ''in fSG0 some
Of tie electors chosen in Virginia voted Tor
Bell ana Everett, ANA the rest OF them voted
for Breckenridge and Lane" I,n't Tat Z
msstaiCmcntl Without the record before
me. am quite conf lent that the entire
vote oil Virginia WAS cast for Bell and
Everett.
There were three electoral tickets: for
Bell, for Douglas, and for Breckenridge.
The popular vote given foc the Douglas
ticket was diverted from Breckenridge;
and the effect was that the Bell ticket had
the popular vote by small plurality; less,
! think, than 4 thousand votes.
When the returns wero canyasscl It was
found that some names on the Bell and
some on the Breckenridge ticket were
printed incorrectly. John r. Thornton
WIS printed John j. Thornton, and James
l.. hcmrer was printed James T. Kemper;
and so OF several others. And these I'M
lucky gentlemen lost every vote OF that
sort. There were so many OF these re-
iec'cd votes that the Board OF Canyassers
decided that a part Of the Bel electors
and rart Of the Breckenridge electors
hld been chosen by the people, and Coy
cTnOr Lctcher proclaimed that as the re-
suit. and summoned this mixed body OF
Democrat, and Wings TO the Capitol %
cast the vote OF the Stale.
The Breckenridge men 50 declared TO be
among the chosen declined to profit by the
merely accidental advantage. The Bell
electors assembled. organized the electoral
college, and filed The Cdc1ncies ,rih their
rejected colleagues on the Ben ticket. And
so the entile electoral vote OF Virginia was
cast for Bell and Everett.
believe that Colonel Lamb. OF Norfolk.
had more votes Than his district competi-
tor on the Bell ticket. The latter was
northern man, and his name was
scratched" by 50 many Wing voters that
Lamb got majority over him. and was
chosen fairy. 1t was said that his sick
ness. at the time of the assembling, pre-
vented him from claiming bis place in the
college. At any rate, he did not get it.
This reminiscence OF 1860 may teach a
useful lesson TO the Democrats OF 1884.
Their INSCRIPTIONS opponents will greed
iIy avail themselves OF every pretext TO
seize upon the vote OF Virginia. Let the
managers see TO 1t tina. every ticket for
Cleveland and Hendricks is printed cor
rectly. i.
Our correspondent is right. Though
several Of the Breckinridge electors re-
eeivcd certificates Of election, yet as Bell
had a plurality OF 35s IN the State, he re-
ceived all The votes under the circumstances
stated by ct" who was himself Breckin-
ridge elector.
