amounting to $1,000. Mrs. Polk is
amply able to pay the taxes, having n
pension of s., 900, and receiving nearly
$4,000 interest on her State bonds, and,
perhaps, does not know that she is in
arrears. In his will, President Polk at.

family forever by bcqucathing it, upon
his death, to the State of Tennessee, to
be held in trust by the Governor, or, if
he should decline to assume tho trust.
then such person rs the Legislature
may select, who shall permit the house
to be occupied and used by such of his
blood relations as have the name of Polk,
prcfcrring the nearest of kin, but il there
be none named Polk then the house is to
be used by such other blood relations as
may be designated. 1t is provided that
whoever occupies the house shall keep it
in repair and pay the taxes. The rcla-
