for expansion. I cannot hope that it
will bulge you in your belief. How
ism of which your letter speaks, that
doctrine has strong support in the
cases of those two well-known classes
of invincible beings who never change
their views I must myself confess that
the events of the past eight months
have educated me; and although such
weakness is not to be feared upon your
part it is just possible that the above
considerations may not be lost upon
some who, while still opposed to eXpan-
sion, are not so complacent regarding
their own mental superiority as to
deny all intelligence to those who dis
agree with them.
Permit me further to say that while
you and the class of thought-Tnonop-
olists you represent may be peerless
expounders of history, you are not the
type of men who make history. To you
may belong the school, the library, the
editorial room, the cloister, the hearth,
but not the field of conflict the march
of civilization, the stormy sea of life.
Your adherents will not fell the for
est, brave the desert nor sail the I'M
known seas. And while you stay at
home, conjuring doubts and taking
counsel Of your fears, the, living,
breathing world will hurry past you,
with no time for your remonstrance
nor patience for your protests.
With all humility, yours,

It is needless to say that the crowd
went wild with delight and Webster
was hustled off to bed.
His cold manner was offset by his
magnificent personal appearance. An
English lord who accidentally saw him
in the House of Commons, when the
American senator was addressing that
body during a recess, exclaimed:
'FBy Cd! That is the first real man
I ever saw!'
When New England failed to stand
by him for the presidential nomination
Webster was called upon to speak
while on a train which had stopped at
a town of some Importance. The states
man walked to the rear platform Of his
car, folding his arms across his breast
simply looked into the faces of mis-
false friends.

SYMPOSIUM ON STATESMEN
Some Random Gossip About Men of For
mer Days.

/ UlES lays
The personality and the pecularities
of.our great statesmen are worth study
ing, says a writer in the Atlanta Con-
stitution They throw side lights upon
character and conduct
Among our early statesmen Aaron
Burr was easily the first, when consid-
cred as an elegant gentleman and man
of the world. When he visited Savan-
nah in the height of his popularity he
charmed everybody, and the city over
whelmed him with social attentions.
Burr detested handshaking, and per-
nitted no familiarities. He would mo-
ton a visitor in his office to a chair,
and talk to him quietly, never uttering
a faulty sentence, and never using any
gesture beyond the occasional motion
of a long, white finger
Despite this rather offish manner,
Burr charmed and Fascinated. He had
wonderful conversational powers, and
upon one occasion his oratory melted
the whole United States Senate to tears.
He never spoke longer than thirty
minutes, even in his most important
law cases. He was cold-blooded. After
his famous duel, when the death of
Hamilton was announced to him. ne

did he suffer much pain?" he asked.
Yes" was the reply.
II regret it,, said Burr "it was my
purpose to spare him needless pain"
Then he turned the conversation to
another subject
He was always courteous, and it is
said that he never passed a countryman
on a dusty road without first asking his
permission
People who knew them said that An
drew Jackson owed much of his polish
to his intercourse with this remarkable
man.
The duel with Hamilton ruined him,
and the charge of treason when he at
tempted TO organize an expedition FOR
the invasion of Mexico killed him as a
public man. The charge was not proved
but it made him an object of suspicion.
1t should be stated that this elegant
society man showed at all times excep-
tional nerve and pluck in war, and in

went into a store to buy the Sunday

which he scanned very carefully and
then said, Eighteen pence!" (thirty-
six cents.)
That costs about one-eighth as

"Cawn't 'elp that" answered the
dealer. These ere papers is massive.
They contain lots of good paper, and

"Well, these will cost you from Is to

Then I found that the dealer would
sell separate sections of a Sunday edi-
ton if the customer didn't want the
whole, and while I was in his store
three men came in and bought differ

as four cents a section. OF course, when
