The President goodnaturedly reproached Mr. Hill (whose father, Isaac Hill, had been a Jackson democrat and a United States senator), for leaving the Democratic party and becoming a Know Nothing and a free soiler; but he did not complain of me for being a Whig boy from whom he could expect nothing. The White House had been a lon...ely home by reason of the sudden death by a railroad accident of the boy son, Benjamin Pierce, on January 6, 1853, after his father's election, but before his inauguration.
