Tha whole of the correspondence between
Mr. Monroe and On. Jackson, which took
place in 1118 and 1817, relative to the Presi.
tint's formation of bia Cabinet, is published in
the National Intelligenct of the 13th Inst. We
ahall five thia correspondence a place in our
columns, aa soon as we find room. Instead of
attaching blame and suspicion upon it author,
it mutt tend to confirm and increaac the confi
dence hitherto reposed! in Monroe and Jack eon,
and endear them still more to the American
people.
COUNTY CONCERNS.
At the May terra of Rowan County Court,
.held in thia town laat week, the fallowing conn,
ty officer! were appointed ('hat let Fither, Eaq.
Sheriff1 of the counts, vice Pamurl Jones Esq.
who declined a re-election i Cspt. J K Fulton,
re-elected County Trustee i Samuel Ismlry, Esq
commissioner of public building i Ifjlliam B.
rTi!n and Philo H At'fr, Coroner j ami Daniel
Clarv, Eaq. Auctioneer.
The Magistrates composing the court, fixed
the county tax at 30 crnti tbr poll, and S centi
for every hundred dollar vxhie of real -estate.
The court also rrsolrrd, in pursuance of an
act of the laat Genera) Assembly, to proceed in
building a Bridge over the South Yadkin river,
between the mouth of Secoed Creek and the
Point, and appointed Meaars. John II. Frcelingi
Jacob Fisher, John Beard, jr. Alfred Macav.and
David MacGuire, commiuionert to contract
for and euperintend the work i to defray tlie ex
penae of which, a tax of 40 centi the poll, and
t Cents for every hundred dotlara value of real
estate, vu asescd upon the county : thia as
sessment will ran about twenty -three or twenty-four
hundred dollar ; which, it ia estimated,
will be sufficient to build the Bridge complete.
We recollect, when it wat firat announced
that Dr. Vance, of the Morpnton Dialrict, waa
elected ta CongrtM,the " Milton Gajeette came
out with a fulaome panegyric on the char
acter and talent of the Doctor, claiming hit
election aa a triumph of Crawfortltm. We
thought, at the time, the Doctor would not thank
thia "thumb paper." for "damning him with ita
tint preiae ," ami the aequel liaa realized our
preaumption. About three or four w eek aince,
the Gazette contained an editorial article, abu
aing the Doctor in the groatcit terma. Tlii
conduct in the Milton paper, it very raaily ac
counted for i Dr. Vance ia not a mucvnle , all
the promiaca, the flatteriea, and the threat of
the majority of the delegation from North-Carolina,
could not bring him over to their radical
achemes: hence, the detraction and villifying
ahuae of the caucu presaca. The Doctor has
written a letter to the editor of the Milton pa
per, in which he ha given them a merited chat
ttaemtnt: they cannot aoon recover from the
amarting which hi bitter irony and aarcasm ha
inflicted upon them. Thia ltason, we presume,
Will teach them never again to claim a a caucu
intriguer, and besmear with their sickening eu
logy, one who is an incorruptible friend and
rrewiontw of the ,PE0PLE, ,;..not of a
tjtcTioa !

The Congrrtt. Prom the disposition
evidenced yesterday, in the House of
Representatives, to await the arrival of
Mr. Edwards, we infer that Congress
will not adjourn at an earlier day than
that we formerly mentioned the 1st of
June. The joint resolution autooriiing
the adjournment was again laid on the ta

it, before it is finally passed.
