I saw President Pierce a few
xjays before tiis inauguration, and
was wry much pleased ,-wUli him.
He is a innti of most cordial and
genial mil a re, high-toned and
generous in all his actions, and
possessed a pure broad patriotism
which embraces his whole country.
lie is governed, however,
too much by his impulses to be
wise in the administration of a
great Republic.. A. man pi strong,
doop feelings is more apt to err
than one without ench feeli' gs.?
He naturally Buffers his feelings
to get the better of bjs judgment.
President Fijlufore declared that
Jio Wohld not appoint to any office,
cither a secessionist or abolitionist.
He did this for the purpose of
building up a great National
Un on party North and South. lie
looked upon both the other parlies
as sectional parties, dipimiotiists in
tact> and h# wished to destroy
theiu as parties, to keep litem from
destroying the Republic. In this,
there w^is great w isdom, and great
Statesmanship :u* well as good
sense. President Pierce unfortunately
adopted a different policy,
and appointed avowed disunionista
to office in the Southern States,
and openly acknowledged abolitionists
to office in the Northern
States. This was done to gratify
popular sectional majority, and
had the effect ot destroying the
true Union party No* th and Smith.
All tho offices in the Southern
States wore in a great measure
filled hv secessionists and dis- 1
unionists. Good Union men. like
(Jol. Grayson, wore turned out of
office, to make room for secession- .
ist6 like Col. Colcock. Col. Grayson
was a Whig and C?l. Colcock
was a Democrat. This policy
alone gave an impetus to disunion,
which nothing could stop. He
called to his .Cabinet, disnnionists
of the first water, and strengthened
them as a party throughout the
fii ill! \ w?rn
Pi'cgidelit Pierce Raid to me that
he had no desire to be President
ot ihe United States, and that the
American people had committed a
great mistake in electing him their
Chief. Magistrate. I did not think
so then, but afterwards I became
satisfied of thy truth of his remark.
Lie did a great deal to hasten the
outbreak of secession, and I resident
Buchanan, by pursuing the
same policy, completed it. It they
had tilled their Cabinets with
Union men and refused to appiont
sectional men to office North and
Sontb, the great rebellion, so call

In conversation with a Sonth

inangnration, that if fie had lived
in the South, lfe?ttOo> would have
been a secessionist. : I thought
this very strange language for n

man. has left behind him a reputation
more endeared to the South.
He was faithful to his political
principles, inherited from htft Hcvolutionary
ancestors, amidst .the
faithless North, in our civil war,

EDWARD EVERETT.
I 6rst saw Mr Edward Everett
at his own house, whilst President
of Harvard O'Hlege. Mr. Poinsett
liad given mo a letter of introduction
to him. lie was then in
feeble health. He was mild and
soft in It is manners, showing a refined
and most polished gentle

und said it never could be success
ful. Ho thought this: was proved
by the history of China. Although
the Chinese were a very industrious,
pains-taking and ingenious
people, greatly devoted to ngricnl
ture through necessity, they had
never been able to succeed to any
extent in making wine. He said
their climate wAa that uf onrs, and
their country similarly situated.
If the Chinese could not succeed in
the culture of the grape, he did
not think tho Americans ever
could, ile said that the flavor of
the grape in Europe was very dif
fereot from that of tho same
species in the United States.
In speaking of tho rich lands
near the lakes, through which I had
just passed, on my trip to Niagara
Falls, he told me that his father inlaw
once owned all of thoso lands,
had purchased them in tho early
history of Now York, for a few
cents an acre, and disposed ot them
for a very inconsiderable sum,
thinking they wore too remote ever
to be saleable. These lands were
then worth fifty and one hundred

ot the country, brought
about by canals and railroads.
Mr. Everett was once a Uuita
rian preacher, and 1 noticed lying
open on his centre-table, a large
audi magnificently bound Bible.
For ntany years he was a member
of Congress, Governor ot' the State
of Massachusetts, Minister to En
?land. United States Senator, and
befeiuent of Harvard College.?
Since this visit to him in 1840, he
was the Whig candidate for Vico1'
resident.
In one of. his speeches in the
House ol Representatives, many
years ago, and before Abolition was
so popular at the North, Mr.
Everett declared that ho would
shoulder his nnisket, and inarch
to the South to assist in suppress
ing any insurrection of our slaves.
Mr. Richard Yeadun, of Charles
ton, told- mo that ho opc^ referred
to this speech in the presence of
[ Mr. Everett, and lie had, or atl'ected
to have, forgotten it.
i Wbbh tho ladies of the United
States, nuder the lead ofitny friend,

- Do Dogs Reason 1"
On rerry sheet, in this city, $
there lives a gentleman who is the
>wner of a valuable dog, of the ^
5reed known as the " coach''
ipecies. This dog has been in the
labit, during the past two years, n
d making daily visits?in the d
noruing, at noon aud in the evcu>
pg-r-to a neighbor's yaxd, for the S|
;>nrjK)se ot assisting the well fed j
:at, belonging to said neighbor, to
uke care of her beelstefak. His
/isits during this time have been
nado with great punctuality"
\bout ten days since, "Ned," for
meh is the dog's name, was left by tl
m master to guard the place?the 1
naster and hit family leaving the
jity for u visit East. From the ..
lay of liia master's departure, "
* Ked's" visits to his feline friend
leased,'and he has not:beenseen
jut ol his master's inclosure, but h
remains there in faithful watch
jver the property lelt to his care.
D'ncc, at kitty's usual meal time 8,
bo was seen to mount the i^uce, ^
which is the dividing line between
lis master's property and that of
titty's owner, and there, lor a few ?
noments, he looked wistfully down .
jpon the inviting beefsteak spread 1
jeforq Mra/Iabby, but not long did
io look upou the teuiptiug scene. I
Something akin, at least, to reason, lj
leemed to tell him that to leave* a
he property in his care, even lor
i short time, would be u violation
>f the faith his master had reposed r
n him; and back he jumped to a
lis own side of tho fence. Is not
his dog actuated by .something
ligber thau reason ? Whether bo 81
a or not, mere is a laittilulness to n
.lie trust imposed iu him, and his
amies are performed with a con- a
icientioustu-ss that is a grand les- g
ion to many who are eroUiled with n
easoning po w c r s.?Davcttport

The excitement is caused by the
discovery ot another u trunk lior- I
ior," which bids fair to out do a
tor brutality, dec., thai which s
startled New i ork a short time
iso. Ou Saturday last, tho Station
Master and the officers chgng V
ad at the Grand Trunk Railroad 11

unell, which seemed to proceed 3;

,vas immediately opened by the y
ifticcrs in the station, and soon L
he form of a wo.uan was reveal t
id to their view, and the smell
,vas then fearful. The body was y
n a shockingly-mutilated condi- v
ion. The arms and legs had been !
Sat off, the flesh was hacked off c
n all directions, for, it is presum>d,
convenience in packing, aud
he bead was cut off and wrapped u
n rags in one corner of the box. c.
The whole sight was horrible and t
sickening. The Coroner and po
lice authorities were at once noti- (
tied. and an innimtt ia ""w

course, and tho maltur will be
thoroughly and promptly silled.
