(iEX. JAi KSON'S IBIRTHrLACE. The L.nc.ster Ledger, in noticing the re-i ent letter of Col. Davenport, of Virginia, claiming Gen. Andrew Jackson s a ir- ginian, which u published in tho H"A 1 7 lb inst , says ; That if tlio statement put forth by those good olJ people of Virginia, upon which Col Davenport predicates his claim, estab lishes the fact that au " Andrew Jackson" was born in that Slate aud removed with lhe iiiteotion of coin'm? to this District, it doe uot follow that that Andrew Jackson was the warrior and statesman of history. The family of Jackson was Scotch, and etui.rated, at au early period, to the North of Ireland. Andrew Jackson, the father of Gen. Jackson, with his sons, Hugh aud Hob ert, left Ireland aud lauded in Charleston iu 170."), and rsuiovod to tho Waxhaws, there to reside. Maj. Robert Crawford, with other-" of the Crawford family, came over with him aud likewise settled iu the Waxhaws. Andrew Jackson died shortly after his arriv.il in this country, aud just before the birth of his son Andrew, 'lhe taller wo bornou lue i..:o uay ui .v t.i i... -r M .. .l. " t .1. : .1... :..

There arc tiume-J rous relations of Gen. Jackson now living , . r,. . ,.. 1 iu mis District some of th.m second cous-1 ins and the tradition among them is tha b.-n. Jacksou was born io ths Waxhaws.

There has been a va-l amount of machine ry purchased for this mine, Lut we saw a lar-j portion of it thrown one side as if Useless.

Hays the lotelligenavr : " The people want an end put to section al agitation, as well in its causes as its ef fects. They want a well regulated natioual cur rency. They want just and adequate protection awarded to American iudui-try. They waut a judicious tytii of internal improvements, instead of the present par tial aud fpatniodio legislation of Cougruss. They want the puLlic lands carefully hus banded, if their proceeds cantiot be equally distributed. They want a remedy applied to the abucs connected with the Jisprusatiou of ths pub lie patrouagc abuse wbi:u provoke com plaint even from the party that first in augurated the "spoils era" lu politics.
