President may, on extraordinary occas-i

chooses to consider extraordinary ?
He is Commander-in-Chief of the Army
and Navy : b.jt may he therefore make
war upon whom he" pleases. lie has a
nower to refuse to annrove bills which
have been passed by Congress: has he
therefore the power to reject all bills which
Congress may presentjo him ? If so, whai
is the meaning of the enumeration in thr
Constitution of the powers uhich Congress
doubt that theveto is a power which ought
to be regulated in its exercise, not only
0 the rights ot the legis at.ve body. 1 ha
in the cases before us tlie President did
not exercise a sound discretion,-we have
shown hvcommrih fc;S rei.ction of bills
which had passed Congress, with tho
which, when a member of Congress, he
had assisted to pass. Was he influenced
by a deference to public sentiment r Pub
lic sentiment can only be correctly ascer
tained through the medium of election.
The Huse of Representative in general
faithfully reflects it. According to that
test, what was public sentiment on these
rejected bills? The Maysviile Road Bill
passed the House by a vote of 102 to 85

He may not have been proclaimed as such,
nor had a crown of gold to press his brow ;

Effect of the Veto Farmers look: here. L
We are crelibly informed that several
merchants i n this ci ty, in making con tract
for their winter supplies of Pork, are of
fering to contract to nay two dollars ami
fifty cents per hundred weight, if Henry
Clay is elected President, and one dollar
and fitty cents if Andrew Jackson is elect
ed. Such is the effect of the Veto. Every
man who raises Pork loses one dollar per
hundred by voting for Jackson instead of
lay. riiis is something the people can
understand. It is verv n!ain that the.
merchants cannot give high prices for
Pork and other produce if they can get
no money to pay with. Suppwt the Bahjt
then, and money will be nlentv. Conse
quently Pork, Corn Wheat live, Flour
ami all other articles raised by farmers
vill command good prices. But put down
the Bank and low prices will be the con
sequence. Cincinnati Gar. ;
The distress throtigtiout this communi
ty (says the Louisville Journal) is such as
has never before been witnessed. The
whole of it is attributed to the Bank Ve
to. The Western merchants are unable
to niake good their; notes, given to the
wholesale dealers in the 'Eastern cities ;
and hence the East and West will suffer'
alike, and general disaster must ensue un
less the re-election of Gen. Jackson is
defeated.
The New-Orleans Emporium mentions
among the deleterious effects of the Veto .
at that place, that one of the State Bank
has alreadv commenced discounting four
months paper at an interest of eight per
cent. The Albany! money-changers will
soon follow the example.
Foreign Capital'- Doctor Franklin,
John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson, in
the science of government were ' far be
hind the intelligence of the present age.-K
During the Revolution, these tyros in
finatice. borrowed millions of dollars of
Dutch Merchants, in Holland, to support
our Government and Army. What a pi
ty these unskilful Statesmen had not liv
ed to leani, from the oracular lips of
Kinp Andrew Jackson, that the. use of
''foreign Capital endangers the liberties of
the country." Albany Evening Journal.
We are not of those who ascribe all the
faults' of the Administration to the Presi
dent himself. No doubt his bad, choice
of men has been as injurious as his dhoice
of measures. As he is often called the
Old Roman," we may urge for him the
sarcastic apology of a historian for one of
the successors of the Caesars. Much of
the guilt, and still more of the profit, was
intercepted by the ministers who were
seldom promoted for their virtue, and not
always selected for their talent."
BalU Patriot,
Sighing for the Flesh Pots of Egypt
The Charleston Evening Post publishes
an article from a British newspaper, in
terms of commendation, which strongly
intimates the policy of returning to the
protection of Old Mother England."-
Note it well here are the opening sen
tences of it. : " Charleston does not ap
pear to have reaped! much ad vantage from
the Revolution. There fs scarcely a
building of any size; or importance, whieh
was not erected under the old Dominion.
Itwas a favorite residence of the British
Governors of South-Carolina, and pros
pered under their sway. Since then, its
glory has in a great measure departed ','
It is stated, in a letter to the Editor of
the Charleston Evening Post, that in a
conversation held by' the writer with Gen.
Jackson, the latter said, that in case"1 3
Carolina should resist the Tariff laws and
Nullify, he would not think of acting
against the State; but he would withdraw
the united States troops from Charleston,
and that would leave the City so exposed
to insurrection, that theinhabitants would
then know how to value the protection of
the Uunerai uovernment."
