THE QUESTION SETTLED.
In reply to an artiole under the
oaption of "Young Men to the
Front," wbiob appeared in the Jef
ferson Tribune, of tbe 17th ult.,
brother Lougbery, of the Timet, ad
ministers to tbe writer tbe following
sensible robuka:
"There was a time when age and
experience, and a knowledge of pub-
lio affairs, were considered valuable,
and tbe passports to positions of
promineoce in tbe oounsels of the
country; but if we are to credit
this very modest young writer, old
men, as a class, are 'iossils,' and
«old fogies;' 'a new era has dawned
upon us,' and tbe young men of tbe
country, 'fresh, vigorous, and im-
bued with all the Tar-seeing and ele-
vated needs of the bour,' are to
tako tbe lead in all political affairs,
and particularly as 'law makers.'
"It is not surprising tbata gentle-
man inspired with such elovated
notions of tbe young men of the
country should exhibit an impa-
tience at tbeir want of assurance in
not thrusting themselves forward
to 'the front,' and that he should
reproaob them for sitting 'idly ftnd
supinely down, and allowing the
golden opportunity to slip from
their grasp.' But the more tb
and considerate men of i
young and old/appreciating tbe re- f1!
loaren, investigation and ésperitoM \St
required to properly quality a man
for office, will porceive in this exbi*
bition of modesty oo the part o~
our young men, much to admire and
liMlfrinore modest, and not to set
his Clegs too high. MB
Age
perienoa are not less valuable
and
now
in the youthful days of
tbe fathers of the young
men of >ba present, when tbe old
men guiddFtbe ship of state, and
took tbe lefsiiTpubUe affairs, and
when our "country was tbe best
governed, ^nd had the most whole-
some and salutary laws of any on
tbe globe."

er there is a vacancy in tbo office ofjhone from the operation,
senator from the 22nd district, has.
been rocoived. in reply, 1 unhesi-

Very respectfully,
E. T. ÜROuanTON.
Snkumak, July Slat, 1878.
Senator Brougbton's term of of-
fice not having expired, it is plain
from tho provisions of the state
constitution, cited in iboMissENaER
of week bofore last, that thore
can be no valid eleotion for senator
in tbe 22nd district next Docember,
unless to fill avaoanoy, and no va
caney can oocur unless tbo prosont
incumbent should dio, resign, or re-
move. Tho first, wo prosume tho
colonol would not like to do; tho
second, he does not promiso to do;
and tho third, to use an Old Virginia
expression, "ho mout
do and then
again ho moutn't." Our Dotno-
emtio friends in that district, nmbi-
tious of senatorial honors, aro ad-
vised to acccpt tho situation with
the bost grace posBiblo.
A PA MALLEI..
Tho opithotB, kingi tyrant, oto,,
wore applied to Andrew Jackson, in
1834, by no less a personago than
David Crookett, a man whoso mem-
ory is dear to tho heart of every
Texan. Tho expressions are found
in a letter written by Col. Crockoti
to ffm, T. Ycatman, Fishkill Land
ing, Now York, and dated at Wash-
ington City, Juno 15th, 1834. In
this letter Crockett, speaking of tho
proceedings of Congress of which
ijody be was at that time a member,
says : "We have done but ono act,
and that is that tbo will of Andrew,
the first king, is to bo tbo law of the
land." Furtbor on be wriios thus: "I
«lo consider him" (Jackson) "a
greater tyrant than Cromwell,
«'tesar or Bonaparto." Now we
wish to suggest to tbe nowspapor
scribblors and cross-roads politi-
cians of tbe presont day,who delight
in applying tho epithets, king, ty
rant, oto., to President Grant,
if General Jackson could survivo
such epithets, even when applied to
him by a man so distinguished for
patriotism and honesty as was Davy
Crockett, President Grant enn well
afford to laugh tbe puny efforts of
his detractors to scorn.

substantially as tollows : During

ing to several matters bofore con-
gress, in one of which be was es-
scially desirous of enlisting tbe
ussacbusetts members. Ho called
on Mr. Annual tbo house several
times during the month of June.
On one occasioft ho found Mr. Ames
in conversation with a gentleman in
the corridor in the rear of the
speaker's chair, and near tbe door,
in close proxirni^'to which was Mr.
Amos' seat, lie awaited the con
elusion of the conversation, of which
be beard only an occasional word,
from which lie concluded it rotor-
red to certuin cotton casos at New
Orleans in which Mr. Amos was
then interested. Before Mr. Ames
turned his attention to Mr Drew,be
remarked to tho first gentleman,
"wait a moment," thon passod into
tbe chamber to bis desk, reappear
ing very soon with a pioce of papor
in bis hand, when Mr. Drew joined
bim and they walked togother in
to tbo room ol tbo sergeant ut

in conversation at tho cashier's
desk. During this conversation
Mr. Ames restod ono arm on the
dosk and kept running tho check
through bis hngers in such a manner
that its face was clearly before Mr.
Drew, who could not help notic-
ing its purport. There was
nothing about it calculated to
make any impression upon Mr.
Drew, except tho tact that it was
payable to tbe initials, -'S. C., or
bearer," which naturally impressed
him as a little mysterious, and tem-
porarily excited bis curiosity. Tbo
check was presented and paid to
Mr. Ames by the cashior. Mr.
Drew did not observo the donomi-
nution of tho bills, except that tho
one on top was for $500. Tbo two
thon walked out of the room into
the lobby, when Mr. Amos banded

whom ho had previously been in

sons, and BR'!d ho was confident his
