I he result hu ahown that they were aa nl(tunste in their first open attack, as in their an WUent attempts. It is plain, bowevrr, they ehoao the Seminole war, on whith to make their debut, foe the reaaon that many of the beat m'trt of the r n doubted whether Gen.

An epportuuify fur executing Ins purpose soon presented itself 1 and tcn. Jackson in hot pursuit not only crossed the Spanish hue, but followed up the blooily fugitives to the very walla of Pcnucola, Among tbe captives, were the two-fltttdawed Errhshmen, Arbiithnot and A mhriatic, and also a fanatic by the name of Francis the prophet. I le brought these w retcU. es to trial for the -murders and otliwr effenecs they had committed 1 they were found gwriTi condemned to be hanged and were aecordinp. lv hanprd on the Calloas If ever a iuat act u as done in war or polities such was the hang ing of thete wretches : the blood of our peo ple cried from the ground for it. But, who would have thought it ! on tbe very gallimt ot thcue murderers, the vwoVea, attempted to build their hopes of overturning tbe administration, and of hantrme ten. Jackson 111 ins turn. In the winter of 181H, a member from tJeorpia, a pu pit of S in. II. Crawford, opened the attack on On. Jackson by a string of resolutions introduc ed into Conirrtss. 1 he debate continued for more than three weeks on the lubicct with grt at violence 1 when the vote waa taken, and lien Jackson w as acquitted by an overwhelming ma ioritv.

Out his encmi. s, like the Se minoles, Uiough they were ariven back, win tie feat, were determined to creep out of their hiding holes, and try their torttine once more. Accor dingly, the aubject was brought before the Se nate, and referred to a (committee. Tbe com mittee soon made ija ejort, in which Gen, Jack; son's conduct w'-aTsevefeTv cehsuri d. 1 his re. port was lijrned by a Mr. Lunch, but it waa ge ne rally known to be from the pen of U rn, JI.

From tht ft'iutunj RflMcu After attempting 10 set aside the claims of Mr. Calhoun, bis opponents now un dertake to affirm that previous to hi be ing brought forward by hi friend a a candidate for the' Presidency! he wa lit tie known ; and that he ha no other pre tention 1 huu that of being a mere flip pant speaker. Ju order to thow the cor rectness of these assettinnt, it may not be improper to notice tbe manner itv which he wa poken of, on Til rt ap-' pcaranre on the theatte of public libv .To prevent any cavilling, we have aelect- ed, for our authority, the filet of the Hich mond Knqu'trer, so autbotity which ii be repec ted, at least by the writer in the Vrashington City Gazette, who have mala the above assertions. Mr. Calhoun firsl took his seat in Congfest ia 1811, and was appointed on tbe Committee of Foa) reign -Kclttions, which, in the then statq of our iiiTairs, was tbe most importaaC committee in the house. 1 he first uh " ject which occopied the attention of Catv trreti at that Uk-iion, wa the report of the same committee, aetaiunptne wrongv - which the nation had suffered from Great' Britain) and recommending immediate; irnd adequate preparation for war tke- -only e iTectual means of redress. In dis-a cussing the leport of the Committee, to Mr. Calhoun was assigned the state cd re lingto Mr. Randolph, also a member of the same Committee, and who led tbe opposition to the report. He made hie ; first effort on that occasion ; and, by turn ing to the nichmond Enquirer of the 24th December, (jj 111, it will be seen in what manner Mr. Ritchie speaks of this effort in the cause c.f his rountry : " We present this day," says the F4itor of tho- Rnqtrircr, rpcsking of this speech, the speech h of lieosrs.
