complished men in either branch of Con-
gress, says Washington letter, told the
other night in speaking of his two hobbies
-freee trade and States rights: ''Years
ago one Of the most intelligent and most
highly cultivated men in public life, a
great statesman, came over from the other

ing my idiOsyncrasy in regard to the
tariff, said: Tucker, whatever political

said !, for it was the late President. Not
long after that we were reading Virgil
together, and we came across his
description Of the preparation of Roman
salad. He dwells, you remember, on the
whiteness of the milk and the greenness
Of the herbs, and then on the peculiar
resultant color after they have been mixed
together. There occurs the phrase color
pluribus in unis.' There, Tucker said
Garfield, that's where we get our AZ Plu-
ribus Unum." what said 1, do you
mean to say that we get our national
motto from a Roman salad? Certainly
he said; there's the "unis'' Cone, you
see.' Yes said l, 'and there's the ''plu-
ribus'' (many), too. You must never
forget that this is an indissOluble union Of
indeStructible StateS.'"
