Mr. .14icholas •P. Trist, was private Secretary of President jack-, son. On ono occasion, it seemed neces-. nary for him to enter the Preiident's apartment after he lad , retired..fer: the. night. He found the President, in his, night dress, sitting at a table, with hie wife's minaturo propped up against some-, thing before him, and between him and the minature lay his wife's well-worn prayer book; from which, according to his invariable - custom, he was reading a prayer, before he slept. • About this time there was a season of special interest in Washington. The pastor of the'church Which the President attended, and from whom the writer has the anecdote, called at the White Hoine; and entered into conversation with the President npon'the subject of personal religion. He replied : "No man regpects - religion more than I do or feels mom deeply its importnace. I promised, my wife that I would attend to the aalvatieo. Of my soon as the election was over, but now the cares which engross me are,,,so ov,er whelming, and,my cabinet -in such a divided state that I have not a monmet's time to think of anything but the urgencies of the pass ing hour. But I am resolved, as soon as I leave the Presidential chair, , and• re tire to the seclusion of the Hermitage, to take up in earnest the subject of religion. It was the old excuse ; ge thy *ay far , this. time ; when I have a convenient season., The hour of retirement came, and still the General did not keep his promise. To one who addressed him on the subject, he wrote, in. August, 1835, "I would long sinca have made this sol emn dedication to Almighty God, but knowing the wietchednese of , this world; and how prone many are , to evil, that the, scoffer of religion would have cried out, 'hypocrisy !lie V 11.47 joined the church for political effect:,''i I ttonght it best ro postpone this public act, until my retire ment to the shade 'of priyato life, when rilina no false imputations could be made that triightte injurious to religion." • - Abouti a yaar'frOrn tMi tiflia, in isn, there W aI) rgiraqe'd Meeting at the.
