the republic is endangered. , . v
We have a stronger bond from him for the fidelity of his ad
ministration, than from any ottier candidate. ,
dreatand virtuous as the others are, they cannot flatter them
selves that their names will be remembered a century hence; but
the fame of Jackson will increase forever; the errors of humani
ty will be forgotten; time will inscribe oh the page of history,
and on the colossal monuments of his grandeur, nothing but his
virtues. Religion, philosophy, and patriotism, will conspire to
magnify his deeds, his name, and his character, as an example
to the aspiring'and virtuous youth of all future ages.
Is it possible that the man, who in inferior stations has treasur
ed up this immortality on earth, when placed oh the pinnacle of
human greatness, with more power to bless his country and man
kind than any other human being would sacrifice his unearthly
fame, and invoke the curses rather than the adoration of all in
time to come? And when time shall exaggerate his greatness,
his services, and his virtues, if history shall record that he was a
candidate for iae highest honor of his country, but was superced
ed by a man unknown to fame, posterity would blush to read it,
and weep at the ingratitude of their ancestors.
The caucus of our legislature, who declared a nrediWtinn -fnr
O ' i .
the election of Mr. Clay, excused themselves on the ground that
the success oi uen. JAUivaUiM was impossible, and that grati
tude would throw away the vote of the state. The weakness of
this excuse for their ingratitude is proved by the fact, that the
prospect of JACKSON'S success is at least fairer than that of
their favorite. But his election is not merely possible; it is al
most certain. He is emphatically the candidate of the people;
and experience has proved their omnipotence when they feel
an ardent interest in any political'subject.
When Washington was their candidate they called him from
the shades of Mount Vernon, and unanimously gave him the
reins of government And now they have found Jackson, like
their ancient Cincinnatus, at his plough, and have called him
forth as their candidate. Since the days of Washington, an usur
pation has grown up in our government, which, n not crushed
by the power and virtue of the people, will soon destroy the re
public. A caucus of the members of congress present their can
didate, and call on the nation to elect him. Heretofore they have
presented'those great and unsullied patriots whom all hearts ap
proved, and the spirit of the nation has not been rousedagainst
the usurpation. So it was in the early days of Rome. The cap
ital selected pure ind virtuous rulers; but the degeneracy of the
system was natural; and scon the empire was sold by the Preto
rian Guards at public auction. Didius, a lawyer, bought it. It
is true we have no Pretorian Guards; but we have cohorts of office-holders
and office-hunters, who would sell the nation for a
place. There will not be wanting a Didius to bid. And altho'
the contrast is now only implied, yet as corruption grows old, it
win De reauceo. 10 writing ana valued in dollars and cents. A
gainst such abuses the virtuous people from Maine to Louisiana
have raised a voice of thunder, that will be heard in the inmost
recesses of corruption. They know that there are already at
Washington " undivulged crimes unwhipped of justice," which
no rod would so effectually scourge as the old Hickory. The
people have presented Jackson as their candidate, and he must
and will succeed. The venerable patriots of the revolution,
whether sinking to the grave in splendor or obscurity, will vote
forhim. During the late war, half a million of freemen dwelt
in camps and opposed their breast to the bayonet of the enemy
as the ramparts of their country. They will vote for him. Plain
farmers! he is one of you. Industrious mechanics! enterpris
ing, high minded merchants! he encourages industry and enter
fc prize. Hardy seamen! you are his favorites. All these will u
mte for Jackson. And who fears his election? Not the brave,
not the honest; he loves honesty, and make no distinction among
men, but that of virtue; not the faithful public servant; he is the
most taithful; not the christian; he is a true one. No! It is the
enemies of his country, the faithless public servant, those who
prey on the vitals of the people. Let these, and these alone,
shake and quake like Belshazzar of old, for their time is
come.
Ana now, Louisianuins! we appeal to you. You arc as gene
rous and grateful as you have proved yourselves brave. Jack

LOVE AND REASON.
Was ever man plagued with such
quarrels and strife,
Betwixt reason and love about 'tak
ing a wife!
Love urges me on, and still bids me
pursue,
And reason :excialms, "you're a
fool if you do!
Love says she is lovclv, love says
she is fair,
That her mind is as pure as a spirit
oi an ,
But reason replies, "she is a terri
ble shrew,
You may wed if you pi ease," you're
it iuoi li you tlo!" v
Love has the advantage, for wak
ing or sleeping,
In each nook of my bosom I find
hhn still creeuinj
While reason in slumbers will oft
close his eve:
This is always the case when Julia
is by.
Then love who is always a busy
young knave,
Will point out her beauties the
curls where thev wave-
Bids me read in her eye the sweet
magical lure
And triumphantly asks me, "oh,
wiiat would you more?"
But reason awakes from his slum
bers again,
And pours such a torrent of elo
quence then:
Tho' the dictates of love I would
gladly pursue,
1 11 take reason's advice I'll be
hang'd if I do!

A Dwarf. A female, a native of
Maryland, 27 years of age, and 011-
r oO inches hign, is exhibiting at
hiladelphia, along with a cub bear
and a red parrot. The description
the dwarf is certainly not of the
most pleasing kind. Her head and
face are said to be those of a woman
but her body that of an infant; her
ind weak though somewhat intel
ligent. She is obliged to be moved
about, yet in this helpless state she
represented as quite cheerful,
and apparently contented with her
roverty is assumed as the
cause for placing this unfortunate
creature in so degraded a situation
Would it not be more honorable to

more abundant than it has been for
several yeras. We have heard no
complaint of its having been injured

quality as well as abundant in ouan

Accident. A sad accident oc
curreci a week ago last Saturday. A
son ot Mr. Bill, of Plymouth, was
found hanging by his neck in his
lather s horse shed dead. A jury
was summoned, who found, on in
vestigation, that the lad had "been
in the habit of swinging in the bri
dle reins of a harness, which Iip
had fastened to the beams above
and that somehow he had mis-nd-
justed his tackle so that one of the
Knots got round his neck. He is
supposed to have been in that situa
tion nearly half hour before he
was tound. It can be no satisfac
tion to his parents to rpp tKo
lancholy particulars in print, but in
others it may induce a greater de
gree of attention to the careless and
heedless sports of their children.
This is our apology for this pub
lication. Foot Race Yesterday afternoon,
the match race between Lawrence
& Warren, took place atHoboken,
half mile heats and repeat. The
first heat was run 2 m. 9 s. and won
by Lawrence, coming in about ten
feet ahead of his antagonist. On
calling the men up for the second
heat, a misunderstanding as to the
time to be allowed between the
heats, arose, the judges supposing
that only 20 minutes was to inter
vene, whereas it appears that 30
minutes was the understanding be
tween Mr. Lawrence and the gen
tleman who made the match for
Warren. The word was given at
the expiration of 27 minutes, when
Warren started alone. Lawrence
at this time was coming on to the
course, and claimed his right under
u i y 7 UJ
father on the evening of Wed
nesday, the 23d ulL by beating
him with his fist. The unhap
py perpetrator of this unnatural
crime was almost immediately
arrested, and the next day com
mitted to the jail in Middlebury
to await his trial at the next ses
sion of the Supreme Court.
The Dog. Among the nu
merous well authenticated in
stances of faithfulness in this af
fectionate animal, we observe
following, which lately occur
red at Gettysburg, (Penn.) As
Matthias Orndoff was crossing
a field, about a quarter of a mile
distant from his house, he was
attacked by a vicious bull, which
raised him with his horns, and
threw him, as he supposed, a
bout 15 or 16 feet upon a fence;
and as he was falling, he was
caught by the bull, and pressed
against the fence by his horns.
In this situation he was held
until he found his strength gra
dually weakened, and was near
ly exhausted, when his dog, who
had heard his first cry, came
running from the house to his
assistance, and immediately at
tacked the animal, and relieved
his master from his dreadful si
tuation. Mr. 0. had received
but one serious wound, which is
a very deep one in the thigh,
where the animal first struck
him. In all probability, had it
not been for the watrhfulness
and speed of his fiithfnl rlnr.
he must soon have been depri-
veu oi nie.
