Many have been thought capa ble of governing, until called to govern, and others deemed inca pable, who when called into pow er, have most agreeably disap pointed public opinion by far sur passing all previous anticipation. The fact is, that the great and lit tle vulgar too often judge of the blade by the scabbard; and shi ning outward qualities, although they may excite first rate expecta tions, are not unusually found to be the companions of second rate abilities; whereas to possess a head equal to the greatest events, and a heart superior to the great est temptations, are qualities which may be possessed so se cretly, that a man's next door neighbor shall not discover them until some unforeseen and fortu nate occasion has called them forth. General Jackson in mir opinion is one of those characters above described; although he has filled almost every civil station with ability, as may be inferred from his having had so many con ferred on him; yet in all those ci vil capacities, he was too much cramped and circumscribed in power, to exhibit his talent for governing: but no sooner than he was placed in a situation, in which the powers of his mind could dis play themselves, were they deve loped to the satisfaction of a "Teat many of the most intelligent vir tuous and patriotic citizens of his country. If nothing he had done catc for the re-election of Mr. Ad ams demanded of a friend of Gen. Jackson "to point out the differ ence between Gen. Jackson ana Mr. Adams. I will tell you, said the latter: General Jackson would sacrifice himself, if necessary, to save his country; and John Q. Ad ams would sacrifice his country to save himself. Kentucky.

The Russian army has at length passed the Danube. The pass age, which had been long delayed on account of the extraordinary rise of the waters, was efFected on the morning of the 8th of June. The Danube was crossed under the fire of three Turkish batte ries advantageously posted, but which before mid-day were in pos session of the Russians. On the 11th of June a bridge over the Danube was completed, and tho lurkish fortress of Isaktsha capi-tulated.

Words are nothing morn tlmn air modulated into sounds, it is ic deeds of great men that make them truly great; and I am of an opinion, that General Jackson dis covered more purity of heart, and sagacity of mind, in his deeds per- ormed at Orleans in December and January, 1814 and '15, than John Q. Adams has disclosed in lis whole life. I will cheerfully admit that Mr. Adams is a learn ed man, and not destitute of nat ural parts: but I must insist upon it, that if he is acquainted with mankind generally, he is not suf ficiently acquainted with those over whom he has been called to preside. And, fellow citizens, it is not such "Military Chieftains" as Andrew Jackson that we should be alarmed at, but such "Dema gogues" as Henry Clay, who are laying the foundation, paving the way, and opening the door for the entrance of some "Military des pot," who will ultimately (it is greatly to be feared) exterminate one ot the most righteous systems of government, ever fabricated by man. Difference between Gen. Jack son and Mr. Adams. An advo- l I ian to the highest office in the .PPsed, indeed, that the coarser are so enormous, as to-amount to sion. Great quan- goods have hitherto America, and the erefore be an ex- jurious one to the Brit ish manufacturer. It cannot be State." Maine. The Ilallowcl Advocate, a thorough-going Adams paper, makes the following honest admissions of the political character of Maine: "The friends of General Jack son in other States confidently calculate upon three or four votes in Maine, and consider one as certain. In proof of their asser tions, they bring forward the facts that the President and a majority of the Senate, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, with a large minority of the House, the Governor's Council, the Secreta ry and Treasurer of the State, both of the Senators and two of the Representatives in Congress, and other public officers, are in favor of the election of General Jackson. What can the friends of the Administration say? They cannot deny that these things are so; for it has become so notorious that they arc. And thus, almost the whole political influence ol Maine abroad is thrown into the scale of Gen. Jackson." The district system is adopted in Maine after this confession, is it too sanguine for the Jackson party to expect a few votes there! woolens will be totally shut out of the United States; the high duties afford so handsome a premium on smuggling, that the goods will find their way into the territories of the Republic from the Cana dian frontier. The immense ex tent of that frontier, and the na ture of the country, will afford the greatest facilities for contraband trade; and we have already heard of an instance in which goods ori ginally ordered to be sent from this port to the United States, have since been directed to be sent to Canada." South America. It seems that Bolivar has, in conformity with the wishes of his party, taken up on himself the supreme command of the Republic of Columbia, and now governs it in the capacity of Dictator. The Grand Conven tion, called at Ocana to delibe rate on a form of gorernment, is dissolved. The manner in which these things have been effected gives ground of suspicion, if not of .absolute certainty, that it has been brought about by the man agement of Bolivar and his friends.
