King, by assuring him that " he had often been told that he (Guizot) lied. " To which Mr. King modestly replied, that "he had never been told so. " French appreciation of sarcasm had no difficulty in discovering the true meaning of Mr. King's caustic reply. I cannot but allude to his kind and noble disposition to bring forward and advance the fortunes of young men, struggling up in life.

After his election to the Vice-Presidency, when lingering under a pain- ful and mortal disease, in a foreign country, his thoughts naturally reverted to his own beloved Ala- bama.

Friend and kindred had followed him abroad ; but he yearned for a wider circle of hearts beating in unison with his own.
