tyrants of Europe: while, on th
other hand, the people's maxiu
may be found in the words of
Washington, "united we stand
divided we may fall."
1 he lnends ot caucus, true
to their maxim, have been busy
in every part of the state, try
ing to excite the friends of Mr.
Adams to start a separate tick
et. Eefore Mr. Calhoun was
withdrawn, their cry then was,
to get up a Jackson Ticket but
now, their schemes are all di
rected towards getting up an
Adams ticket. Under this state
of things, ought it not to be re
gretted, that any of the friends
(the real and true friends of
Mr. Adams, not his pseudo
friends) should come forth and
make efforts to accomplish ' the
wishes of the caucus party!
Whether, indeed, these gentle
men can be the real friends of
Mr. Adams, is not for us to say.
We are told by a correspondent,
(an eye witness,) that the meet
ing was very small, consisting
of only about a dozen persons
who participated in its proceed
ings; that it was held in a back
room, without any general no
tice. We think proper to state
these facts, lest the address may
be considered, at a distance, as
proceeding from some numer
ous collection of the friends of
Mr. Adams; when, in fact, a
majority of the friends of Mr.
Adams, in the town of Con
cord, suspecting all was net
fair, did not attend.
We do not say that this fee
ble effort was the direct work of
the caucus party, for we believe
several of the persons present
could not be made tools of in
such away: but, on the other
hand, we arc certain that it is
factory intelligence to dissipate
the fears of our friends and the
hopes of our antagonists.

Foreign. By arrivals at
different Northern Ports, we
have received" English dates to
the 26th July. With regard to
political affairs, there is no News
of importance, but wc regret to
notice that there was something
like a panic and considerable
gloom prevailing in the English
Cotton Market: which iif fol
lowed by any serious depres
sion in the price of the article,
will appear the more extraordi
nary, when it is considered that
the import into Liverpool from
the United States since the first
cf January is rising cf lOo.CQo!
bales less than during the same
period of 1S23; and likewise
that the import for the remain
der of the season was expected
to be considerable Jess than the
corresponding period of last
year. As we hear of nothing
like a falling off of business a
mong the Manufacturers of En
gland; as the' Market was not
overstocked, and as the present
year's production was calcula
ted to be much short of the im
portation of the last; we see no
reason to fear a permanent re
duction of rates, believing that
the suspension of purchases has
arisen rather from some freak
or expedient cf trade, than from
any real diminution of demand.
The next arrival will probably
advise us that the article has re
gained its former standing.

me .umisn; and hp so eminent
ly contributed to crown with
glory by die capture of her in
vader, CornwalUs, with his
whole army at York Town, on
the 19th October of that year;
is one of the most interesting
and pleasing circumstances that
fancy can picture or gratitude
contemplate. The approaching
commemoration at York Town
wlj present a spectacle more
affecting and sublime than the
page of our history has yet re
corded. It will probably be
attended by a more numerous
congregation of grateful citizens
and admiring strangers, than c
ver assembled on any one point
of Virginia's soil, and all who
may be present, will regard it
through life, a the noblest cel
ebration they ever witnessed,
the grandest procession they e
ycr joined, and the most inter
esting scene they ever beheld.
Persuaded that every indivi
dual in Virginia will feel an in
terest in it, and that every fam
ily in the State may wish to
possess a faithful narrative of
the commemoration and all the
circumstances connected with
it, the Subscriber proposes to
collect, digest and record a min
ute and exact detail of the whole
series of events to which La
Fayette's visit may give birth.
The detail will commence with
the Resolutions of the volun
teer companies of Norfolk and
Richmond, on which the Gov
ernor of Virginia's ixvitation
to La Fayette, to meet at York
Town on 19th October was
founded and to which will be
prefixed, a brief and interesting
memoir of the life and fortunes
of the illustrious individual,
whom our country "delights to
honor, as the Nation's Guest,"
and whom grateful Virginia in
particular, hails as her guardian
and protector in the most trying
hour of her revolutionary su
ferings.
