j MY DEAR SIR :
Jn the last issue of your
j cabbage leaf (it is a wonder that the cows don't
eat it, but perhaps they are afraid of the mur
rain) you take cocas: into make sundry stric
tures upon the removal of the Post Oifice. Now,
sir, it is scarcely worth a man's while'to prove
yen a fool, for every body concedes that to be
a fact; so I shall simply trpat you "according
to your folly."
1. Nobody but a man of vonr calibre (and
j you are certainly a very smalt-bore) would com
i rinin of 10 rods difference in the distance he
; would have to walk to the Post Office ; and it
j isn't 10 rods from the recent location to the
i i resent, it you are too lazy to walk that uis
■ Unce, mre one ol those "Daguerrean wagons"
| and peddle your re-hash of the JV. 7. Tribune
' from place to place ; or engage yourself as mon
-1 key to an organ-grinder and let h : m "tote"
J your newspapers on top of his music-box. At
! 3n y rate, it you can get your documents in the
, mails somewhere else, it might save me some
j trouble in the way cf walking Lac'c from my
j house to the P. 0., after the time for citing
| ;he mails, as 1 have done to accomodate
you.
2. How does it come that you diln't corn
; plain when a P<>.t Master of your party had his
j successor appointed so as to piace tte Post 0 -
| dee tw ice as Jar from the centre of .he town as
jit is at present, and who kept it there unt.l i
i was appointed ?
3. As you seem so overburdened with sus-
I ..icion concerning the cause ol the removal i
would suggest that you send for Air. Covode's
Sine ling Committee, and have the naffer in
vest igaft'd.
4-. You s*"m to have h3d an improper inti
macy with Madam Rumor. You and sne
•o Lv escevd.'i.g 1 /social. I rather think that
!y ju are at. 1 'err with her. Muuam Humor i.,
, the si-ter of the F her ofLi- ,c , and therefore is
■ ye* -'• .t. Relatives shoul 'he social.
... Tl. ■ "fr : d. : ..ir elbow" you speak of
| must have been the old cloven-hoofed gentle
i man himself, for T dou£>? *htlher you have any
other friend that would dare to tell such a false
hood a9that 1 promised to bring the P. 0., to
the centre of the town, if appointed Post Mas
ter. I never made any such promise.
In conclusion I would say that in moving
! the P. 0., I did what ] thought best for the in
: terests ot tiie citizens of Bedford. The former
; room was entirely too small, though it would j
! not have been had but one counter been put up \
1 in it, as 1 understood there would be when I :
moved there. But enough of this.
Yours, &.c.,

The President's;. Letter to Governor
Waikcr.
We are heartily rejoiced that the Givode in
quisition have obtained possession of the pri
vate letter addressed by the President to Gov
ernor Walker on the 12th c! July, 1857. Va
rious rumors concerning the contents of this
letter have been long in circulation, which wilt
a ! ue instantly dissipated bv the perusal of the
letter iisM! ; and we take pleasure in laying it
before our readers to-i!av.
in- object of the Covode inquisition, doubt
less, is t > involve the President in an inconsis
i t-ncy in first having strongly recommended to
' the convention to submit the Lecomp'on con
| shtuti a, after i's formation, to the people of
' Kansas, en ! in a!awards recommending the j
1 adoption of this const if rit ion to Congress, a!- !
I thm gh it had not tuns b*en submitted.
| ioe c<)': vvtiti >a did act in pursuance of th i
| adviceofthe President, so far as lo submit the
; • -imp ''an! and absorbing question of tfh'" n .ry \
|lo {tie people. About the remaining provisions j
I (if the coastftuti-n ihere vu never any con-j
, !jese the convention declined to stntTii! ;
|to the people. The President at no period ev- f
er withheld the expression of his ecrnest desire!
' tha the constitution should be submitted to the j
; - •• A.'tertfie convention had refused todo j
! this, an entirely new question lhn arose, name-'
ly, siio'ihf ibe President disregard and nullify
the constitution Lamed by th- convention, and
determine not to submit it to Congress becau®-
j thev had acted contrary to his a;!v>e ? This
he could rmt do iv'f'n his deep conviction* of I
j J'-.'-. If is on" thing for the President to a-i- j
•rubers of a convention or a legists- j
- b 'o art in a particular manner : but i' I
. is a i-i her and quite differert thing for hia* to I
annul their lawful action because thev did no! I
1 think proper to follow hi- advice. Jo hi s fT ies- :
®age to Congress of the fith of December, ISSB, -
he employs the following language:
"It is true, that, as cn in dividual, I had ex- '
pressed an opinion, both before and during the I
session of the convention, in favor of submitting !
' the remaining clause? of the constitution, as well j
'as that concerning slavery, lo the people. But,
acting in an official character, neither myself j
I nor any human authority had the power to re- !
judge the proceedings of the convention, and |
declare the constitution which it had finmed to j
ibe a nullity. To have done this would have!
j been a violation of the Kansas arid Nebraska
act, which left 'he peonie ' I the Territory 'per
fectly free to font and regulate fheir domestic
institutions in their own vav, subject only to
| the Constitution of the United S'ate?.' ft would
j equally have violated the great principle of
j popular sovereignty, at the foundation cf our
i institutions, to deprive the people of the power, j
if ihey thought proper to exercise il, of confiding I
to delegate? elected by themselves the trust of
framing a constitution, without requiring them
*to subject their constituents to t hp trouble, ex-'
! p-mse, and delay of a second election. It w.udtf
[ have been in opposition to mapy preo de/rn i.i 1
: our his'orv, commencing in the vepv fce?t age |
- of the Republic, of the admission of Territories :
as Slate? into the Ur.i .n, without a previous
. vote > f the peonie their conslitu- .

PRESIDENT BUCHANAN TO HON. R.J
WALKER.
Wa-tjixgtov, July 12, IS*>7.
My Dear Sir : I duly received your fitter ofj
fie 28th ultimo or: Friday last, and read it to j
; 'fie cabinet, thn in session, fhe news whicli ••
; it contained was not calculated to assure us ot
your success, though we did despond. Hence i
j you may judge with what satisfaction were-!
• received an account of the proceedings ol the !
j National Democratic Convention held at Le
compton on the 3 i mrt. The point on which i
j your and our success depends is the submission j
j of the constitution to the people of Kansas, j
I And by the people I mean, and I have no ti jiib:
, you n.t-an, the actual bona /f,7e residents, who]
: have been long enough in the Teriitory to idem ;
, tify themselves with its fate. The legislature'
j determined three months as tiie period of resi
dence to entitle individuals to vole for members
I ol the conventi n ; and if the convention should
j think proper to adopt the same period to enti
; tie individuals to v-de for or against the coti-i
, stituti it appeals to me this w mid be reason- i
j a~le. On the question of submitting the con- ,
j slitution to the buna fide resident settlers oD
Kansas lam willing to stand or fall. Jn sus
taining such a principle v:e cannot fail. It is j
; the principle ot the Kansas-Nebraska ti!l_the
i principle of popular sovereignty, and the nim
-1 ciple at the ioundatioa olail popular govern- i
mer.t. The more it is discussed thes'imiger it
j vvilf become. Should the convention of Kan-i
I sas adopt this principle ail \ ill be settled tiar- ■
| inoniously ; and, with the blessing of i'rovi-j
j dene--, you will return triumphantly from your j
arduous, impoitant, and responsible mission.
The strictures of the Georgia and Mississippi
, conventions will then pass away and Be rjicnh-
J !y forgotten.
In regard to Georgia, cur news from that
State is hitter every day. We have
j not yet trad time to hear much from Mississippi,
.'s.iould you ansiver the resolution ot the latter,
I wou.d advise you to make the great pimci
| file ot the submi-s.ou of the constitution to the
bona jite residents ot Kansas conspicuously
j prominent. On this you wiu be irresistible.
• v'nh the question d climate every person is
acquainted : and the more yon insist upon this
Tie more will our oup.-cents urge timt we an
vn'atiug ftie prmcij'le of nou-irite- lerence 3t
toe iuuudaltoii of the Kansas-Nebraska law.
Jt is strange that people at a disiu.rce, who have
n.i pi iciiial acq aintance with the condition
Kansas, touuiu undertake to be wiser tiian those !
on ttie spot. Jt is beyono ah question the true !
policy to build un a great deinocntic party)
t iHe:e, lo sustain the Constitution and the law?, j
; composed ot pra-slavery and free-Mate demo- I
j crats: au.i it the majority shout! be against 1
| siav.-ry, lo obtain SUCH constitutional provisions
jas will secur'e the tights ot 3laveholue r ? in Mis
: s i':i and othei :yt ?,and maintain all the laws
guardin - Me just rights of the South.
/ou are right in your conjecture as to the
cause of .fudge Williams' appointrritnt. VVc
supposed it would be peculiarly acceptable to
yourself, and tint he aid in carrying nut
your policy. Col. Gumming fisbeen appoin
ted governor of Utah. This will 1 -ave liis
piace vacant, after a brief period required for
settling up nis business ; and I shall certainly
he disposed to till it by the appointment of Mr.
Stevens.
Gen. Harney has been selected to coinrr.an: 1
tlie expedition to Ltafi: but we mu-t contrive
to Dave him with you at least until you are out
cf the Woods. Kan is is vastly ir.jre important
at t e present moment than Utah.
ihe pressure upon me continues without in*-
termission. I pray 'hat Divine Providence, in
which I place my trust, may graciously pre
serve my life and my health until the end of
my term ; but God's holy will be done in any
event. With every sentiment el esteem, I re
main always sincerely your friend,
JAMES BUCHANAN.

A Remarkable Surgical Operation.
An operation of Lithotomy was performed at
Pierceton in this county, the 11th. inst. on tie
body of John Murray, by Dr. E. R. Parks of
Lee.-'iurg, assisted by Dr. Havs of Pierceton
and Dr. Leedy of Warsaw, ar ! others. It was
certainly one ol the most important, and so far,
the iri.-t successl'il surgical operations t'v r
perform- !.n Northern Indiana. The opera
tion of Li lotomy is itself, we believe, one of
the most important, an ! critical opera!: ms be
longing to operative Surgery. Pew cf our
m-:st distinguish! sarg-uns, are willing to un
dertake vo-difficult atid intricate an operatkra.
t '* operation performed by Dr. P.:i ts was,
certain,y, one of the lir-t magnitu !e and he
serves great praise f>r so successfully performing
it. Ihe stone, removed from 'he urinary bifid
fi-r by the operation, was of enormous Uz >. lis
greatest diameter is 2', inches, its lea-t d'am -
t r 1 1-4 iuch.-s. Its weight is about three
ounces, fu its texture it is soli! an ! compact.
In its interior was fjtind on examination, a firm,
solid piece cf woo l about 1 1-4 inch i,,r. of
a conical shape, terminating at one extremity
in a sharp point. This probably forme.! the
nocl-us by which the stone was fotntied. Its
corrpisition is probably calcareous.
The history cf the patient who is the subject
of this operation , would perhaps, t•of m' • '
to the reader.
Ar. RIIJRRAV ii now a resident cf Pierce'>n
w!>ere be Jiaa resided some IS months, ll
form°rly resided in Pennsylvania. Daring 'he
Mexican war Mr. ;\J. enlisted under Sergeant
DECKER in the U. S. Set vice for five yrais, and
serv.-d his time with great credit to himself; he
was the first man on the waifs a! the taking of
Vera Ciiiz. and also the first to scale the wall.,
at Chennltepec and plant the Ainiicnn colors
there. (Jenera 1 Sco't awarded l.i n a premium
tor remarkable bravery in that war. In one
engagement, fie received a severe and danger
ous wound.
Soon after Ins return from Mexico, while ba
thing, he accidentally rec-ived a - were wourei
in the periniurn which bounds the ur fi ra
and urinary bladder. This wound was treatel
•v a respectable physician, but the treatment '
was not successful, arid although he was subse
quently treated fir a long time by various phy
sicians and surgeons, the wound couht not be;
Imaled. He emigrated to Pierceton, in the fall
of IS >8 with his three brothers, MICHAEL, THOM
AS and WILLIAM, who now rank among the most
resnectab!" citizens of the place.
During the summer of 1559, Dr W'.i. HAY- of
Pierceton, was consulted with referenc to Ihe j
case. U|>on inquiry he found til* ca- ■tobe a
'iiliicull one, and at his instance the advice am!
a'si-tance of D.-. PARKS was procured.
Mr. MERRAV at thi- time was truly i-i a des
perate condition, having been harrass-d by tiie ,
wound from the lime lie received it —the whole j
space 1.-ing one of uninterrupte d sutfi-ring and ;

His appetite was gone, l.is boivei irreeuta:-, i

to heal up those extensive burrowing* and -sin-j
uses. A long time was required to bring this!
state of things about, but at las! it was acco.n- 1
pushed. I line was given to allow the li- alth'
to raiiy, to prepare the system lo: the operation j
which has been so successfully performed. To- !
