Banner. 77e death-of Mrs. Jackson, un- der the peculiar circumstances of the case, excited a large, share of the public sympathies. Never has any female in this country beefri assailed with greater injustice, or raore.nccessfuliy defended. She died, it is true, at the very moment when her husband was, -about to ascend to.the highest office in the gift of a free people but she was o fortunate as, to lire to sne the ungenerous slanders against her self and her husband put down by the overwhelming voice of an in dignant people. Rich. Enquirer: From the Troy, (N; Y.) Budget. The Jackson Cheese. This fa mous cheese has now a residence in this city. It was sent to Messrs. Patterson &, Hart, to be forward ed to N ew- York, vand thence to Washington. The cheese weighs one hundred pounds, is deposited in a tub prepared for the purpose, which is finely painted and label ed. The label or, inscription is as follows: ' J "' ' A present front Israel Cole to Gen Andrew Jackson, President elect, U. S. A. to be delivered to the care of Rev. Obadiah B. Brown, Washington City." - AV ho would not be proud to re ceive such a present; the first and best fruit of the dairy. Coming too, from Massachusetts, the na tive state of Mr. Adams, and what is yet more worthy of notice, from a towr called A dams, (jir. Cole lives in South Adams. Whoev er attends a soiree at. the Presi dent's mansion, and tastes of it, cannot help thinking of all the as sociations connected with it. Gen.

JYorfolk Herald. . Niagara Falls a crash. The Lockport Journal of the 1st inst. says, that, on the Sqnday evening previously, a surface of the rock, supposed to be the size of half an acre, forming the bed of the river, broke loose; and was precipitated into the immense chasm below. The informant of the Journal de scribes the part fallen as having been the Horse Shoet at,that paint representing the Toe Cork. The crash was heard for several miles atound, and the effects in the im mediate vicinity, resembled the shock of an earthquake.

She is 13 years old, and her form is goodexcepting that she has no stump or protuberance about the shoulder. She is beal- thy, cheerful, and intellgent, and can knit with astonishing ease and rapidity, with her toes. For want of arms to ballahce herself she walks with bme difficolty and awkwardness A lircHy Printer. A notice in the New York Observer, states, that if George Posier Southeroni a printer, late" of Quebec, will call at that bIice, he will hear good news; as, for instance, of a great legacy from a rich relation. It is not ofteb the printers meet with such good ; fortune, generally speaking, thicy are a lacklcss set Canine Rolbery.-A dog, say the Pautucket (R. I.) Chronicle, stolea pocket book from the' pan taloons Docket of a! Mr. Peter, a young man of that town, The dog i . . . . took the pocket book to a corner of the room, and fought bravely before hie tvould resign it to the owner. What is almost incredi ble, is the statement that the dog had opened the pocket book, and swallowed seven dollars in paper money. The punishment in that statovforVhe above crime, is whip ping, crophing and branding. In a late Vera Cruz hewppa'per, there is an address, dated Cfiihua hu(t, Nor. 1st, " to the powerful and illustrious' Republic of the United States of North America," in which the most flattering com pliments are paid to the principles and morals of this country, and it is announced that the State of Chi huahua had selected 12 boys" to be educated, at its expense, in our schools, as t he best for the "forma tion of intellect ual and moral cha racter. ,; Illustrious legislators of the fortunate United Mates ot the North," says the address, "'wise and virtuous preceptors;, whom t lie State of Chihuahua has deem ed alone capable of fulfilling its hopes, receive, in the errand of these dear youth, the siiongcst proof which it could give of its cordial confidence jand venera tion."

A provincial editor says " do, for heaven's sake, divide the state of New York, and call 4he west part, the State of Morgan" " Call it," says the Ithaca Journal, " the State of Sin and Misery."
