A LETTER FROM CRN. JACKSON.
We are pieced to pulilish the following
eharacteritic letter from General Jaekon.
Nolliing less fia-jk. less manly, or I,

proud of the gciicrons bin discriminating

which true dignity and honor are conceiv

('lay-, Web-ters, T all ma ges, and B.lls
that the world ha- produced.
Gen. Jackson shows th it he i still faith
ful to the cauv( of i he people; and, describ
ing the nature of Government, insists up
on giving tin? simplicity and directness to
it-action, winch alone c m secure i's high
est ad v miner s.
In ivgaid to his own course on the
15 ink qnes ion. Gen. Jackson makes om
very in-port an observation. lie cmsi.i
ered his own labors but the commence
ment of a reform in the banking system.
It was not enough tint a National Hank
should bi dstrod; it was not enough
that an Independent Treasury should be
instituted, so lon as the vicious principles
which make a National Bank objectiona
ble, operate with full force in the local
banks of the Slates.
The fine compliment which the hero
pays to Mr Van Buren, bistaily and lonj
tried friend, is abundantly deserved.
Hermitage, S-pf ember 11. 1S41.
Sir: Y'ur lelier of the 2Sih ultimo, with
its enclosure the resolutions of the Dem
ocratic Republican Mass Convention,
held in the (Jth ward of the city of New
York, on the 2 lib of the same month
have been duly received, and are acknowl
edged with sentiments of profound gtati
lude for the honor they confer upon me.
The state of my health, which is now
much disorder d by an attack of lever,
does not allow me to expre-s at length the
rt flections excited in ni mind by the pat
i loiic views embodied in the reolu' ions.
I cannot nfrain, however, from sax ing
that they meet generally with my concur
rence, and particularly th.U which gives
praise to Mr. T h r for his veto ol the
Bank hill. If he but maintains the posi
tion he has assumed against this gn at lever
of Fedei a ism, this deadly foe to the prin
ciples of our Government, the d-stgn- of
that pariy, in other respects, will he h ss
ddlhUil to conn, ei ad ; for the ship of Stale, :
teat-veil of the cortupi influence of a Bank
of the L'nitid M itts at its helm, will nalu-!

may be remedied while theie is no B.oik;

the tendency of the .Sub- I lea-uiy to pro

iJtAibiles the President believes that
the ub 1 reasury h s been condemned by
the pe pie, and so he-n ving, be ought not

hope thai he will deal l.nily and canuidly

sense ol duty, and derived much satislac

ceived, even from many who then cen
sured me, of the approbation of my coun
try. Hut, sir, 1 consideied my labors as
but the commencement o! the work of re
form in legard 10 the banking system.
Much higher praise is due io Mr. Van Bu
ren, against whom the whole force of the
spirit ol monopoly was brought lo bear.
It has driven that distinguisned statesman
and unpretending patriot into retiiemeut,
but il has rendered him dearer than ever
io his country, because of Ihe noble sacri
fice he has made to the cause of equal rights.
I My strength failing mo, I cannot follow
out inese r. nations. Every etf.irt to wrile
admonshes me thai my life is nearly spent.
Let me conclude, therefore, this hastv an i

assurance to mv Republican and Democrat

of their respect, and hive a-i abiding fiith
in thesuccessof tlieir effris to s-eure the

Indian war upon Texas A letter
from R. A. Calo'vav, Sub-Agent for the
(Kiges, dated -0s.ige National, Aug. 23.
IK41," is published in the St. Louis fja
7. tte of the 8th inst.. which svs that the
Osajje people had, not lonn since, return
ed from their summer's hunt on the sou'h
western pnrtof ihe Oianl Prairie, bringing
with them two white peison, whom the
purchased from the Cumanche Indian
vhile out, one a vo-mg Spanish woman, i
the other a girl of 9 or 10 years, said lo
have been taken from the people of Texas
The Osages say ihe-e people have many
white persons among them.
Thev say father, ihat the Cumanches
are oulv waiting for the leaves to fall from
'he trees, to m die a general aUack upon
-he whole frontier of Texas. Piopositinn
were made for the Osages to send thm
our hundred warriors, which the Osag s
refu-ed,on account of their friendship for
die white people. A pipe has been sent
to many, if not all the tribes on this side ol
the mountains. How far they may suc
ceed, time alone will show. They have
appointed a place of general rendezvous
somewhere not far from Houston.
The St Louis Gazette adds:
"Another gentleman from the same
place informs us thai he conversed with an
Osige chief on this subject, who informed
him that there was no doubt the intention
of the Cu munches. The had sent a pipe
to all the adjoining iribcs and solicited their
co-operaitoii. He also told our informant
that Ihe Cumanches had procured the aid
of a tribe or band of men who were not
Indians, amounting to several hundred;
from the th scription given, our informant
supposes them lo be either Spaniards or
Mexicans. The Cumanches are reported
to have some seventy five or a hundred
white children w ith them, of whom they
make servants."

Fortunate Recovery of Money It

On the 29th, Vera Cruz also declared
for the revolution, antl then the train was
almost complete for ihe overthrow of the

noon Santa Anna, who had about two
thousand troops under his command, seni
off asufficient number to take possession of
Perote, a castle which commands the com

and Vera Cruz. They reached there on
the 27th, just as the English n ail was
