S t a n t o n , t h a t a grand conclave was to assemble without my knowledge, I mustered strength enough on Sunday morning (Jan. 12,1862) to be driven to the White House, where my unexpected appearance caused very much the effect of a shell in a powder magazine. It was very clear from the manner of those I met there that there was something of which they were asham­ed. 1 made no allusion to what I knew, nor was anything said to me on the sub­ject. But I took advantage of the occas­ion to explain to the President ia a gen­eral and casual way waat my intentions were; and before I left he told me that there was to be a sseettag at the White House next day, and iavlted aw to attead.

April 1886, you published a statement as fol­lows: drafts outstanding unpaid. $6,799.98. Besides this it was an open secret that there were other accounts which had not been presented.some withheld by request, amounting to over $1,000, and at present I am informed by those who claim to know that while it seems Impossible to get at toe exact amount, the debt is somewhere aear $0,000. Thus, gentlemen, you have before yon the problem to solve? suppos­ing you rake this year the fall amount that you caa by law.
