The Presby ' terUn Synod convened in Salisbury on the 3d and adjourned on the 6th inst. Thirty 8even JVliiHstejs & thirteen ruling Elders at tended. The opening discourse was de livered by the Rev. Dr. M'Pheeters from J6hr9. 4'and is represented to have been remarkably instructive and interesting. f , During the Session of Synod, divine ser- vrt wns r'o-!il.irl v nprfnrmpil tKrA fimnc f, CiV J r v...v .1 every da v ; the audiences were large, se- riuusMum auenuve , mere is gooa reason to hope, that good and lasting impressions were made on the hearts of many. The next meeting of t hie Synod, is to be held in this City, on the first Taesday in No Tcmber 1828. " f The.tPresident of the Uhited States, On his'Cecent visit to Baltimore, was treated with the attention ilue to his distinguished station: He was invited to a nublic din- ner, and thousands exchanged salutations wiOthim af his lodgings. There 'are one or two. incidents mentioned in the Balti more papers, which deserve notice, as they furnish a 'specimen of the President's ready wit arid of his liberal feelings. A-young man, fully " half seas orer,'? on being in -troduCedland while shaking hands, with hirq, observed I hope, sir, the constitu tiokMgy never be broken,'" respond the sififiment with : 9 my heart said the President, and permit me to add the hope that your constitution, may, never be bro ken." ' ; ' . . ''.r'' ' Another individual sid, Mr. President, though I differ with you -In epinion I am glad jo find you in good, health. Tli e Pre- siueni gave mm a nearly snaKe or tnenano ! .1 i I ' V 11 f .t 1 i! and' replied, 4k Sir. in our happy and free country we can differ in opinion without bcing.enemks.". - . " vMeetings for forming the Anti-Jaekson Convention at Richmond, continue to b Ibeld in different parts of Virginia: That of the citizens of Lynchburg which 4took place on the 9th inst. was the most niime rous ever held in that town.' : A meetins of the citizens of Loudon was heloj on the 8 tli inst. Meetings are also toTake place soon,, in the counties of KLing-George, Caro line, Frederick, Jefferson, Hampshire, Hardy, Richmond-, Westmoreland, Pow hatan; Berkeley, Aususta, Rockbridffe.

' . ' . I"- t ; . t I ., .,.1,, m being elected. Yes, it is asserted, that' Mr. Webster who bid been in favor of Crawford and when there was no prospect of his election was undecided between Jackson and Adorns, was waited on bj.Mr. Bailey, a member of Congress, from Mas sachusetts, who sounding him on the sub ject of the election, found him opposed to Adams, because he thought that in case tf his election. Federalists would be exclud ed from office. That Bailey left Webster, and on the succeeding d; y wrote him a letter to quiet his fears as to Mr. Adams's hostility to the Federalists that this letter of Bailey's was submitted to Mr. Adams and corrected by him inJm own hand-writing that Wrebster was satisfied with the pledged but desired some proof that it came from Mr. Adams that Bailev directed the it attention of Webster to certain interlinea tions in the letter, by the hands of Mr. A dams himself and this being ascertained, was considered satisfactory that Webster showed it to other Federal members who he thought were opposed to Mr. Atlains on the same grounds, some he succeeded with and .by some he was rebuffed. This is the calumny to which birth was scarcely given, before the followingconclu sive refutation of it, appeared n the New York American : We are now enabled to stare, upon the highest authority, that this story, by whomsoever lold, orbv whom soever vouched for, is utterly untrue, and without the shadow of foundation. To the base natures that have invented and circu lated bis fou! lie, we leave the task of vin dicating themselves before the public." Since the foregoing was in type, we have seen Mr. Bailey's letter to the Editor of the Basfon Advertiser in which he pro nounces he whole story to be a base fabri cation. He supposes it was coined in Phi ladelphia, to have its effect on the election ihere. AYe say again, the cause must be desperate, which requires such means for its support. " A correspondent of the National Journal, under the signature of Atticus, states that during the month of January, 1825 the very time when, according to Major Eat.n and other friends of General Jackson, Mr. Markley was intriguing to secure the Sec retaryship for Mr. Ciay Mr. M. was ab sent from the city of Washington, attend ing to, his law cases in the Pennsylvania Courts. He must have felt a prodigious interest in the Rtflitical nroeeedin at . r - Washington, wheh'he ci-'uld thus absent himself for-a whole month, and rhnt ihf. vp. ry-month before the election by the House. - s ' The returns from the Pennsylvania E- lections, so far as received, show a great accession of strength to the Administration. In the counties already lvard from, where Mr. Adam's votes in 1824, amounted on ly to 2594, they are now 13,260 New Jersey Elections. -The elections in this state have just taken place, and the. Trenton True American gives a list of the returns as far as received, of the members elected to the state Legislature. It is as certained that the Administration has a majority in-both Houses. ' The Tennessee Legislature, have elect ed the Hon. H. L. White a Senator of the United States from that State, for six years to commence from the 4th of March, 1829. ThTs is taking ttme by the forelock. 1 ' The Legislature of New-York having,at us present session, repealed the law im Z A posing a penalty for gravelling on the Sab bath, except in-'cases of necessity," the clergymen of Albanyhave discontinued their attendance to open the daily sessions, in the usual form of wordiip. The ninetee th of October was celebrated in. Norfolk, by a splendid Military display, in which they were joined by. several com panies from Washington City, who were invited to co-operate in the observance of this day so memorable in the history of our Revolutionary struggle. The celebrated horses Eclipse and Hen ry were. sold on the second lay'of the New YorkJRLaces dnd purchased lttyMr. W. B. Ludlow: of ihattate Eclipse .; for 88050 and Henry foe 84 100.

It is with pleasure we remark the in creasing interest manifested by the public In those two great subjects, Education and internal improvement. The letters of Carlton" have had a tendency more than any thing we recollect within several years past, to excite the public attention and to promote inquiry. Besides being the subject of common conversation, they have drawn1 out' other' writers who are wejl qua lified to discuss these questions. lb. Considerable quantities of Goods have been received i town since our last, by boats & waggons from Wilmington. There is an evident improvement, also, in the produce market so that, on the whole, business has assumed a mure animated ap pearance. Ib. The Virginia University was not as fol ly attended this session as was anticipated. One hundred ami eighteen students only ha.e as yet matriculated, though more are expected. The 'hard times' have doubtl ss prevented many from attesting;. ..We are glad-however to be enabled to state that those who are at the institution seem to kep in view the object for which hey came, and as far as we have an oppon unity of observing uncommonly studious and atten tive. Charlottesville JJdv. Had Thomas Jefferson in 1812, been called upon to leaf! our arn.ies to the Can ada line, the world would have thought it a very absurd and preposterous -appointment. Would it have been more so in fart, than now to call Gen. Jackson .6 the Presidency of the U. S.? The art of war requires undivided study, attention, and i r eculiar talent is the art of governing a great nation, alone to be acquired without experience or tudy ? In this study and the discharge of duties intimately connect ed with it, Mr. Adams has' consumed forty years of his life under he eye and instruc tion's of Washington, Jefferson, Madison and Monroe. We mean no reflection on Gen. Jackson when we express it as our belief, that he is profoundly ignorant of tin elements of political science. His life has been directed toother pursUits,& it is impos Hole that he can 1 know those things which require great talents, and the studious toil of years, to acquire them unless indeed, Heaven has wrought a miracle in his favor, and communicated by intuition, -that which less favoured mortals obtain by dint of lab or and long experience. Gen. J. must be mill. more ignorant d the-. science of go vernment, than Mr. JefFeron w..s of that of war, ami he must in truth be still less prepared to fulfil the difficult and compli cated duties of the Presidency, than Mr. Jefferson was to lead an army. A shoe maker cannot build a house, nor can a car penter make a pair of shoes. The order of nature and men's "necessities, carry them to follow different pursuits and acquire dif ferent professions. Rich. Whig. A capacious Pair of Breeches. Mr. Noah of the New-York Enquirer s.iys he can put the whole stale of Delaware into his breeches pocket. One of Mr. Noah's pre decessors in office, as we read in the book .f Judges, committed a variety of depu tations on his adversaries the Philistines, burning their com, and slaughtering their men wi h tht jiw-bone of an ass ; but all this, is nothing to what the Adams Philis tines have to expect. Mercy on "thesm ! A whoie stale crammed into the breeches pocket of trie Judge, and perhaps after wards laid, at the feet of the grand sultan of the Hermitage. It is but a few days since Mr. Noah de clared that Little Delaware had a heart big enough fur the whole union. This will help the imagination in guessing .the capi city of the Judge's breehes pocket. . . ', N; E. Galaxy. Effects of War.'-. It is remarked in a statistical article in a French Journal, that the effect of the wars of the revolution has been to diminish the stature of the human species in that country. This is explain ed in the. following manner : Soldiers are formed only of men who, for their physi cal formation, are the elite of the youth of the country. For the space of thirty yearH mere was an immense consumption ot sucft men ; and in the mean time the care of re-peopling the country was left Hi a great part, to those men wiio were not large e nough, strong enough, or well enough, form ed, (or soldiers The large proportion of men wno are pila short stature is pvored to be he following facts.

After the rejection .of the j'bove proportion of men for the -French army, it is ascertained from the inspections fli-U thirty-seven in a hundred are under five feet one inch in height, and only 45 in a hundred over five feet two inctfys.-. From th. se facts it would seem, that af ter rejecting the proportion of one third, for want of sufficient size, one half the soldiers of the French army are under five feet six inches, of -our measure, in height.
