' JACKSON AND VAN BUREN MEETINGS. Franklin, Macon, July 23rd, 1S33. A numerous meeting of the citizens of Macon 'County, was held at the Court House in Jrank iin, on the 21st ihst., in pursuance to public no tice, given by Col. E. S. Erwin. (by request) at a regimental review; for the purpose of taking into consideration, the invitation. from the citizens of Buncombe, to the adjacent coun ties, composing the Congressional District, to met their delegates in Ashville, on the subject of the Presidential and Vice prcsidcntional election, as also the rail road Convention. Col. Tatham was called to the chair, and James Robiuson to act as Secretary. On motion of Col. Samuel C. Love, M. Francis was appoin ted to explain the object of the meeting after which, the following preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted. Whereas, There are many persons Jn this County friendly to the re-election of Andrew Jackson, who arc not disposed to support P. P. Barbour for Vice President, and Others ap proving of the nomination of Henry Clay for President, who are at the same time unfriend ly to the election of John Sergeant, for Vice IVesidentthcrefore, Resolved, That the senjse of this meeting be ascertained by ballot, for President and Vice . President. The following is the result : For President, Vice President, Jackson Clay Van Buiien Barbouk 110. 3. 79 22 ' Resolved, That as we fully approve pi the nomination by the Baltimore Convention, of Andrew Jackson for President, and Martin Van Buren for Vice President, we invite the diflerent Counties in this Electoral District, to send Delegates to meet the Delegates from this county, in Asheville, on the 18th day of Aug. next, for the purpose of selecting an Elector, for the Jackson and Van Buren tickef. Resolved, That Col. Samuel C. Love, Capt. Nimrod-S. Jarrett and James W. Cuym Esqr., be appointed Delegates for this County, and Col. Samuel C. Love, James llobbinsor; and M. Francis, a committee of correspondence, for the purpose of effecting the object of tmVmeet- the electoral ticket. mere boy, only 14 years old, struggling against British tyranny and oppression; yes, although a youth of tender age, he is found fighting for independence by thp'side of his gallant coun trymen. That wer is over that war gave us our independence; and Andrew Jackson is now an eminent lawyer. Again in 1812 our coun try is involved in war with Great Britain, and again Andrew Jackson is found struggling with the same foe that he had fought when a boy. Our country places him at the head of her ar mies, it was a great and important trust confi ded to him ; he had to fight the very soldiers that a short time before had defeated Napoleon. Bonaparte and his armies, they were flushed and elated with recent victories, they landed at. New Orleans, prepared to deprive us of our liberties to shed the blood of our citizens to destroy our property, and to insult our delicate and unoffending females; yes, their watch word was beauty and booty; but in the hour fcf dan ger our country had a friend, that friend was Andrew Jackson, he met them, and conquered them, be preserved our liberties, he saved the blood of our citizens, he saved the chaste and delicate female from the ruthless hand of afero cious soldiery. He then returns to the fireside of his peaceful home, but he is not allowed to remain there long, before he is called to fill civil appointments, such as Governor, Senator in Congress, and lastly agrateful people elected him to the Presidency of the U. S. He has been President a little more than three years; in that shoit time he has formed advantageous treaties with England,Turkey, Denmark, Mexica,&. Co lombia. The colonial treaty with Great Britain has met with great and preserving opposition from his eneirres,who maintain, thatanindircet trade is more profitable than a direct one. But fellow citizens you have wisdom enough to know that it is better for you to take your pro duce along the direct road to Fayetteville than to take it thereby way of Elizabeth. He has re covered millions of dollars from the Govern ment of France, which has been due our citi zens for a great many years and which no other President could succeed in accomplishing. He has nearly paid off the public debt, which when he came into power amounted to nearly sixty millions of dollars. But our limits will not permit us to proceed further, therefore Resolved, That the interest of our country re quires the re-election of Andrew Jackson as President, and Martin Van Buren as VicePresi dent. Resolved, That we view with contempt, the base slanders and infamous falsehoods put in circulation by the enemies of Jackson and Van Buren. Resolved, That we approve the President's veto of the bill for rechartering the Bank mon- t.jt&u t Yf uviu r w uu v 1 O I We take it upon our reputation to ?utes Gazette, to be held on Monday the 6th re are not 100 of the 1,700, whose ) Inst4a,nt at Stae House Yard, designated ris ; we like to be particular.

We aver most seriously, that we do not believe there are 50 persons of the list, at this moment, entitled to a vote : this is spoken advisedly. Wehave been too well accustomed to the honest and well .remembered names of our naturalized fellow citizens, not to recognize them at once; and we fearlessly-pronounce the present, one of the most impudent frauds and impositions upon the credulity of the public, that has ever been attempted.

The United States Gazette and the Penn sylvania Inquirer pretend to give the names of 2,000 Irishmen, arrayed as deserters from the cause of the country and the President, and now enlisted under the banners of the Bank. It appears, 1st, that the statement is false, as it regards the number of the names given ; 2dly, It is false, that they ever voted for the President. The lis"f having been exa mined, it is pronounced by the Pennsylvania!! that "not more than 100 of 1,700', were in the country at the last presidential election; and it is believed, that not fifty of the whole list are entitled to a vote; 3dly, A fraud is commit ted in making James Hogan one of the authors of the call for the meeting 6i Irishmen. He thus, in a publication under his own signature, brands the act of forgery upon the Bank party, who employed his name without his consent, to delude his countrymen. We give several other letters, fastening the crime upon the Op position most conclusively.

Philadelphia, August 3d, 1832. Gentlemen: Among the long list of hetero genous names published in the Inquirer of yes terday, calling a town meeting for Monday next of "Anti-Jackson Irishmen," I perceive that of Patrick Keogh, and not knowing anoth er person qf that name in this city or di-stricts, I have came to the conclusion that some per- son has, without my, authority, taken the un warrantable liberty of using my name on this occasion, for the purpose oMorwarding,in some degree, those ignominious proceedings. There fore I disavow all connexion with them, vv nen- ir I dabble in American politics, which is but seldom, I assume the appropriate and hon orable appellation of "Naturalized American Citizen," and whenever I take a part in those affairs that have the civil and religious freedom oflreland in view,.! come forward in my own proper person, as a true native Irishman, and as such, and with the assistance of many a no ble hearted native American Citizen, and a few of the gentlemen signers, have been, in my opinion, one of the primary causes of obtaining from the fangs of English tyrany, the late par- lal amelioration of those worse than uraco aws, which have impoverished my native country, ever since the day3 of the immortal hero of Glenco; and perhaps at the time we were so engaged some of our unnaturalizea ana renegade "Irish citizens," were distraining the pigs belonging to their poor neighbors for the tith of some uncharitable saint. This Bank bubble nuts me in mind of the charges brought by that notorious high English Tory, Sir Robert Peale, against Earl Grey, in the debates in the House ot Commons, on tne Address to the King, on the 6th of 'December last. He accuses Ministers ol tne nomoie crime'of neglecting to renew the Charters of the Bank of England and the East India Company, (which, by the by, has a few years to run, like our own Bank,) and idling away their time with "long discussions of whether the Cholera was indigenous or-not, and launch into medical disnnisitioits respecting it, whilst two such snbipcts' were totally neglected." These were real high tdry principles ; he was in more trouble about these aristocratical insti tutions, than about the misery and calamity ot his sick and nnnr rnnntrvmen.' 1 hope wnen thfi reomsinnistR read this, it will cure some of them of their Irish nonsense and folly.

Having observed my name signed at a call of Irishmen, to oppose the re-election of Gen eral Jackson,. I hereby publicly declare that it has been placed there without my knowledge and against my consent, and that I remain as I THE VETO IN PENNSYLVANIA. From the Albany Argus. We continue cur extracts !to-dav from th democratic journals in this patriotic common wealth. Nothing can be more clearly indica tive of the strong approval by the democracy of that state, of this great and popular act of the President. We continue these quotations, not, as some of the opposition papers have stated, because we wish to fortify a weak point, or to make a show of strength where; we are deficient in its elements; but for the purpose of shewing how utterly untrue and fallacious the assertions of the Coalition are in relation io Pennsylvania how unreal are; their hopes, if they have real ly at any moment entertained a hope, that she would swerve from her faith and principles and how firm and true she is in her support of Andrew Jackson, and in her approval, distinct and unequivocal, of the "VetoMessage." The Pennsylvania Argus says: Public Sentiment. Undr this head wc have placed a number of opinions, expressed by able democratic editors, on the President's Veto. It will convey to our readers an idea in what light General Jackson's opinions are re ceived by his friends throughout the country. It is with pleasure that we are enabled to state, as far as our own knowledge at present extends, we have not noticed a single instance, among tho vast number of periodicals, that have sus tained him for the former measures, but what ardently support the present' one. The light that has been thrown on this subject through this last message of the President, has caused many who have heretofore remained silent, to take the same independent stand. The manu facturer, the mechanic, and last, though not least, the Farmer, the bone arid ginew of Penn sylvania, have been awakened. The plain and simple reasons, contained in this veto, come home to them in all force. It has given them new evidence of the great attachment, he bears toward them. He knows and feels their in terest for he, too, is a farmer. Such a man the democracy of Pennsylvania delight to hon or. ! From the Venango Democrat. The Veto Message. Every scheme that designing intriguing and persecuting opposi tion could devise has been resorted to in order to embarrass the administration, but our great and worthy Chief Magistrate has shown by this act,lhathe stops not to enquire what effect any measure may have upon his election.: His only enquiry is whether it is calculated to ad vance the general interests of the country, or "subversive of the rights of the States,' and dangerous to the liberties of the people" and when he has .satisfied himself on that enquiry' he fearlessly and boldly expresses his opinion, let who will be made friends or foes. He has thus furnished the most unquestionable mani festation that his moral courage as a statesman m the cabinet is not less than his constitution al bravery as a soldier in the field. For ourselves, we have always entertained the opinion that a United States Bank was ne cessary even with some individual disadvan tage, in order to have a general circulating medium of uniform and established credit ; but the re-chartering of a set of foreign corno. rators with an exclusive monopoly for a great length of time, involves another and a very different question. We believe that no intel ligent and unprejudiced man can rise from the perusal of General Jackson's objections to the bill presented to him, without feeling the un answerable force of those objections, and with out at the same time, appreciating the honest and lofty .independence of that sDirit from which they emanated. Brokers, stock-iobbers and money speculators will make an awful hue and cry we have no doubt, but their interest . - are one thing, and the interests of the ureal D mass of the community are another, and gen erally directly opposite. The Carlisle Republican contains the fol lowing frank admission: In our last we gave the Presidents message, returning the Bank bill with his objections, and then stated that we should npt attempt to pre dict, at that time, what effect it might have in Pennsylvania. It has now I been before the people, and we rejoice to see that their intelli gence and their honesty is universally in sup port of the Roman firmness Of President Jack son. The democratic presses in Pennsylvania, with one exception, (the craven Pennsylvania Enquirer,) are out boldly in support of the con stitutional opinion of President Jackson, in re gard to the re-chartering of the bank. How ever warm bur feelings may have been in favor of the re-chartering of the Ujnited States Bank', we cannotbutsanction the honest, fearless, up right and (which he considered) constitutional course of the President. ; The "Washington Examiner says : The Veto. So far as we have heard, the democracy of the country admires the conduct of the President, in his throwing himself in the breach of the constitution made by the United States Bank monopoly, determined on its de fence. He will be sustained. Every man in the United States ought to read this message of General Jackson". He has said every thing that need be said; and we have ho doubt that the American people upon whom we has . thrown himself in this contest against a most powerful and dangerous monied institution, will sustain him. The Mifflin Eagle holds the following signi ficant language. I The Veto of President Jackson to the Uni ted States Bank bill, is delighful news to the Germans. They now believe General Jackson to be an honest man, and as a good a friend to the prosperity of the; farmer as Governor Sny- der, who veioea iony nanus at one time,. An drew Jackson is the President of the people, and not of banks.- From the Susquehanna Democrat.:, We present the Yejo Message of President Jackson to ourreaders this week It is a docu ment that should claim the attention of very sincere friend of the present administration. Mosi of the reasoning set forth, is cogent and fr;Mo ori rcmmrnfl i iself as emana- ting from a-clear, head and an honest and sin cere heart. The Carlisle Volunteer says ; The President's Message. a careful pe rusal of this message, is recommended to every man who wishes to judge for himself of' ii merits. As attempts have been made and arc now making, to injure the old patriot and hero, in consequence of his refusal to sign the-Bank Bill, it is but fair that cvery citizen should in form himself of the President's reasons foi' such refusal. Read the message. The account from every section of ihtf State, with regard to the next election, are most cheering." The democratic party are determined to elect the candidates of their choice Jackson & Wolf, by an overwhelming majority, all trick, perversion of facts, false statements, &.c. made use of by the Opposition tp the contrary. The people have their eyes open, and Will not knowingly run counter to their own true interests. Penn. Forester, Public Sentiment in Pennsylvania was never more decided upon any question than it nor is upon the President's veto. Andrew Jackson, " Bank or no Bank, and Andrew Jackson in spite of the Bank, are re-echoed from one end of the , State to the other. The people are, they aU ways nave been, unanimous on this subject, and oi their presses, butowchas ventured opcTiZj to set a higher value upon the Bank, than upon Jackson and the Constitution. ljie Pcnnsvl- vania Inquirer, having the fear of a thirty thou-' sand dollar loan before its eyes, .has bounced over into the ranks of the enemy. iiiairsvtuera.) tiecora.

This is indeed the only hope, but it is a forlorn one. We did fear that the Veto would injure General Jackson in this State, but we are now fully satisfied that it will not. The stir which has been made about it, has roused his friends to action, arid the number of those who have deserted on account of the Veto, will be more than made up by those whom admiration of his manly independence, and great regard for the rights and happiness of the people, will add to the ranks of his friends.
