tariff was the debatable question of
that day, and occupied intensely the
. mind of Mr. Calhoun. Ho had started
anew theory touching its operation on
the public intovosts. Mr. Tazewell, as
is his practice, urged objections to the
theory, in order to havo it developed in
all its hearings. I left them in animated
conversation at 12 o'clock. They
sat up to a much later hour. The next
day found Mr. Tazewell aiul myself
journeying to Richmond, and Mr. Calhonn,
by another road, to South Carolina.
I inquired of Mr. Tazewell whether
Mr. C. convinced him of the correctness
of his theory. " No," said he,
"I have made up no opinion about itt'alhoun
is always in advance of me by
many months." I could not but exclaim
" You have paid him in that the highest
compliment ever paid to any man."?
His mind required no awakening, for in '
truth it never slept- lie was sometimes
thought to bo more speculative than !
practical? and yet he often foresaw com- ; <
ing events which hud scarcely cast their {1
shadows before them. Mr. Webster j'
sunk into quietude and repose after a
great effort?but it wag the repose of I
the eagle, which wearied by a long | ]
flight, alights upon some lofty eminence ,
for necessary rest, and where he may | <
readjust his plumage for a flight that I
will bear him still nearer to the sun ? j'
{ |
His mind was easily aroused, and when . |
in motion was as resistless as the tide j
of the ocean. In debate the stylo of 11
the oil" was precise and didactic?that '
of the other, copious and Ciceronian.
Mr. Calhoun hud obviously made the j
great Athenian his model- Mr. Web- I
gter more nearly resembled the illustri- j
ous Roman. The one flashing with the i
inspirations of genius?the other shaking
ihe Senate chamber with the thunder
of his eloquent:..?such were these
two great intellectual giants, each suited
to positions of the highest eminence.
and each, in the absence of his rival,
worthy of being regarded 113 the mun
of his age. j
DIFFICULTY BETWEEN MESSRS.
McMULLEN AND GRANGER.
Many inquiries havo beon made' of us
as to the origin of the difficulty nt Washington,
on Mont'.ay last, between the Hon.
McMullen, of /irginia, sod one Amo; P. j
Granger, an extreme negro worshipping
member from the twenty-fourth Congreij- j
sional District of New York. An eyewitness
states that the two woro proceed-;
ing to the Unpitol in an omnibus. Grnn. j
gef, who is an Aboliiioui*'. of the deepest '
dyo, soon commenced his vulgar tirade
against the South her institutions, and all
connected with them, and stated that if
the "Republicans" succeeded in electing
Fremont they wouU force measures upon
the South that would compel her to relin- 1
quish her present system of servitude, and !
if they could not do it in any ot' si way. it !
should bo brought about (shaking his fin- |
ger in McMullcn s face) by thi force of]
arms, and concluded by calling him a pup 1
py. Of course this was enough to raise
the ire of any man; but Me Mullen, not
forgetting his position as a Southern member
of Congress, restrained himsolf more
than it seems possible for huu^,an nature
to do, and informed the negro worshipper
in cool, but decided tones, that his age
alone prevontcd hi in from putting him out
of thu stage. <Dl waivo my age, sir, I'll
waive wy agb, you, dirty puppy," responded
Grunger. Thereupon, a fracas ensued
as a matter of oourac, and resulted, as we
have already stated, much to the damage
of tho insolent Granger. Ho appeared in
tho House, not exactly with tho inark of
cime upon his forehead, for Mr. MoMnlicn,
unfortunately,.carried none?and although
a small man, thero was such palpable
evidenco of a compound prcsauro of
the flcslx and bones of his hand upon the
countenance of Granger, tha? ha might
oarry the evidences of "hostile aggrossion"
upon his front for n long time.
It will bo seen from the f.iTftaninc
. o r?
Graugcr was clearly the aggresaor, and
the only regret witli all men who lovo
right and justice will be, that MoMullen
did not giro hiin a moro severe drubbing.

ELECTORAL TICKET ok 8. CAROLINA, whi
We received a letter frorn North Carolina inst
ihc other day, cnclosit.g the amount of the cvoi
writers subscription to tho " Herald," and cult
[troponin# to n* the question?whether we have ?< ?'
[in electoral ticket for Buchanan in South less
Carolina? The writer goes on to request that as
wo should inform the people on this subject, it s
fi? bo has l?een unable to ascertain that we 1 exe
have a single ticket of that kind. ofb
Upon tho margin of the reoeint which we ^
<ent our North Carolina friend, wc stated to I
!ii;n the fact that Buchanan nnd Breckenridge crui
?rc on the only electoral ticket known to South UR '
Carolinians. We are happily so united in our l,n*
l>oliticnl sentiment here that there is no ne- 8Cn
icssity to make much noise about our purposes to
in this behalf,and therefore it is our nearest
neighbors may not know what we are doing. Ju'^
No doubt North Carolinians would rejoice to u
have just such a state of things with them if eu'
it could be brought about, for harmony of feel- I110
ing, unity of purpose, and concert of action, "Ml^
arc nlways desirable.
For ...tr part we arc disposed to attribute the "
, . . *. , . , mo
remarkable unanimity of the people of our ^ ^
State upon questions of Federal politics, in ^
some degree to the fact that we vote for Prcsidential
electors through the Legislature instead
of voting directly by the people. It shuts off
much ot that mischievous tendency to bias the ^
judgments of the people by a reckless disrc- I .
gnrd to truth,and subserviency to party alone, ^
which obtains among mora politicians, inas- <<n|
much as it affords fewer opportunities for the
practice of their juglery upon them. It also j
closes the door in a great measure to caucus- f0p
ing, wire pulling and countless other species cm
of chieaucry by which parties arc organized jor
and sustained. Nor do wc lose anything by 1 ^
our piau of voting. We ascertain without
difficulty, generally, the opinions of our can- t
didatcs for the Legislature, and so in voting tra
for them, vote for the Presidential candidate pie
we prefer. The people of no State vote directly
for President, hut cast their suffrages ^
for others who are to vote for them. Now if ^ (
we cannot put our tickets in the ballot box for sto
Buchanan, but must first elect a man who shall
put it iii for us, why may wc not just as well ^
cl-iCi one wuu ilia'l DKinvi unoittcr to uepo.sii |

auces, the scenes of strife, and excitement, the nei
temptations nnd opportunities to corruption ret
and every other imaginable mischief which ^
we escape by this quiet way of expressing our J2
preference for the candidate wc approve, the j m<
advantage of being removed this one step fta
further is apparent. .

READING.
["hat quaint and noted character, "the oldest
abitant" can recall the time when this
i a reading communitj; when the young
I the old of.both sexes were as much in the
?it of conversing familiarly abont the book*
y had read, as of the amount of the day's
:s, the prospects of tbe cotton market, and
prospects too of?marriage, and aout* per
s are of opinion that those were better
s.
lales then were good, cotton was as high
ifteen, or even twenty cents, and marriages
e actual!) occurring " every now and then."
tides all this the people were more sociable,
re at ease in company, and more enterling
in conversation, though "storm par"had
not then been invented.
Vhy may not tkisstato of thiugs be restored ?
believe that nothing has had a greater
iency to destroy the taste for reading in
i, as well as other communities, than ti e
rarter of iho books and magaaines with
ch the country is Hooded. While in some
nnces, we admit, they serve to amuse and
n interest us for the moment, they fail to
ivate a taste for reading, but rather nau
;p roe tiiiua, or produce a relish tor sense- |
gossip. It in not the amount, no much
the character of our reading that renders ,
erviccable, and therefore it becomes us to
rcisc a cautious discrimination in this age
ook rnakiug.
[ere is the great necessity for literary Revs,
that we may learn from those ot disninaling
judgement, capable of instiucting
rpou that point, the character of such wri- 1
js as may fall in our way. The role probed
by Mr. Todd in his "students manual,"
read no book of which we have not the
arable opinion of aome one Oompetei)t to
ge of its merits, who b*s himself read it;
a safe one if it can be carried out, but if
ry one adopts it there will be none to
nounce an opinion. Parents however should
ject the reading of their children to the
; of their own judgments, or incalculable
ichicf may be the result. Strict regard for
rality will prompt them to such a .course,
1 the benefits will soon be apparent. Nor
we rogard the reform which it will produce
he style and matter of conversations at our
ial gatherings as the least of those good
ults which will flow from it. A feast with
hing but tyUabubs, is better than a mental
ertaiument with nothing but remarks about
i " weather," and speculations as to the
:xt wedding."

We arc kindly permitted to copy the

it an attentive perusal, as it comet from a
iable source:
Wk?tfo*t, Mo., Aug. 12,1856.
" I arrived here the 27th of April, and have
veled all over the Territory; I am well
>ased with some portions of it. The land is
the richest kind ; the soil from four to ten
t thick. The country gcueralljr is ptairie ;
timber onlv on the water courses. There
ilways a substitute for timber on the prairies:

b?s here are tbe Kickapoos, Pawnees, Dela- |

iwg, Otto ways, Pottowottomics, Sacs and
xea. The F>elnwnres, Wyandotte and Shawes
are about treating on a portion of their
x?rres. Wages of all kinds are generally
od here. Farm hands and teamsters get
5 best wages: term hands get from $18 to
0 per month ; teamsters from $30 to $40 per
>nth ; Carpenters 2 to $2.60 per day. Qamo
d fish are plentiful here. 1 am going out in

To know is enough, we will fall at thy feet,
And the praise of thy worshipful skill will rend.
