liawrciiccliui'sh, April 23. DEMOCRATIC REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE fur president AHDREW JACK20ET. ELECTION IS 1832. " The Man and his Measures: Equal protection to Agriculture, Manufactures, and Commerce: A literal construction of the Constitution, with the exercise of express, not implied powers: A firm adherence to democratic principles, to individual and municipal rights, to the sovereignty of the states, and the sovereignty of the people 07" YVe have been requested to announce James T. Pollock, us a candidate for Stale Senator at the next election. The last legislature in Ohio gave a charter for a near bank in Cincinnati. The institution is expected to go into operation in a few weeks. Col R. M. Johnson is announced zs a candidate to congress in Kentucky, from the district lately represented by him. War among editors . The editors of the Indiana Democrat and the Greensburgh Chronicle are carrying on a horrible and black war. Oh it is a terrible sight to see these two Hectors brandishing their bare intellectual Jack-kmves, sharpened to a wire edge on a brick-bat, and every now and then thrusting them into each other, as if they had no tense of feeling. We have had some, what we tho't tolerable severe bouts with our neighbor "Modest Merit" of the Statesman; but they were nothing mere fun, to this rupture between the Democrat and Chronicle "Jtfodest JMerif' says it beats any thing he has ever seen or read of and we think the lellow is nearly right . The editor of the Political Clarion prates about the Lawrenceburgh "Caucus,' as though he knew what the term meant, or considered bis readers entirely ignorant of its import, it is very questionable whether a country schoolboy can be found who does not know what is meant by 'Caucus,' and its total inapplicability to public meetings of the people. Mr . Parker is no doubt a young man of sprightly imagination, possessed of a tolerable talent, and would do welt enough to scratch lines for an Album, or perhaps make a passable usher in a country school ; but to say he is fit for an editor, op ever will be, without a total regeneration of the inward man, we have every reason to doubt from bis course in the management of the Clarion. His reckless disregard of the civilities of life, and the avidity with which he siezes upon and trumpets forth the most bare-faced and unfounded charges against political opponents, must ever render him a Jame and feeble supporter of any cause. Ur this iact, the more calculating editor of the Western Times is fully apprised ; and upon suitable occasions has not failed to give Mr. Parker a little friendly advice. -But it was like strewing pearl before swine he minded it not k The notice he has chosen to take of the meetjog here, and the remarks made with regard to ourselves, in particular, we do not consider as meriting a special reply. It was expected that whenever the friends of the administration moved in defence of their rights and privileges, and claimed a proportion of official power, there would be a wonderful out-cry raised by those who claim to be the decency of the coun try. Mr. Parker, who, we understand, con siders himself the fugle-man of the Clay party in Indiana, catching the sound and apprehending that some harm was likely to result from stirring up the people, to a sense of the impositions daily practised upon them, could do no less than try to ward off as well as he could; and in the confusion of the moment, it is not to be wondered at that he should mistake a public meeting of farmers and mechanics for a knot of intriguing, lazy, loungers, (such as. he is accustomed to meet with in midnight con clave) and call it a "caucus." The Statesman of yesterday contains a letter, purporting to be written by a friend of the administration in Logan township. Without knowing or caring who the writer is, we will venture to say he is not what he professes to be. The bare fact of his writing so low and f hallow a letter, to a bitter enemy of the administration, is, of itself, sufficient to convince us be is not, nor never was, in heart, a friend to Gen. Jackson. We will go farther and say, that no person who has the least attachment to the administration, and who has observed the pertinacity with which the opposition stick together in the choice of every officer State and United States will advocate such doctrine as is put forth by this Logan letter writer. "No question," says he. Now what has been the practical effect of this "No question," principle in the politics of Indiana? lias it not had the efFect to disfranchize the friends of Gen . Jackson from every important State office? Has it not put in the United States senate, and in the lower house of congress, men who, disregarding the wishes of those who elected them, have gone against the administration on every important measure? We say it has, and will again, unless the people determine to assert their rights and wishes at the polls. Mr. Gregg knows, if he knows any thing," that our remark respecting the resolutions adopted here, was appended to the notice of the Logan meeting, and, as every reader must see, belonged to it. We notice this merel show how confused the intellect of our neighbor "Modest Merit" has become of late. We notice in the Indianapolis papers, that a steam boat ascendioc White xuver, arrived at that place on the 11th inst. This being the first boat of the Kind that bad ever ventured up so high, on mat stream, great joy was manifes lea oy tDe citizens on tier arrival. The boat is owned by Gen. Hanna and some other gentlemen, and wa9 inten ded to convey stone up the river for t bridge on the Cumberland road; but not answering the purpose, she waa run down to the Wabash a We have half a hat-full of common! cations on hand, from different quar ts; uui owing to tDe difficulty ourboys have in deciphering them, they have been laid over to a more leisure time. Modest Merit" throwB a whole column upon bis reader, to explain live lines in the last Palladium. Large bodies require great fpace to turn in. We hope he has not worked in Tain,
but has aatisfied hU doubting friend that he is a man of industry and strict honest) for our part we still lack faith. "Wooden nutmegs" A hogshead in which some tobacco was exported from New Orleans to Bremen, and the heading of which only, being of solid oak eight inches thick, and weighing 250 lbs, has been sent back to New Orleans. And there are plenty o(iihorngunjlints in the stones and dirt that are packed up in bales of cotton, in several of the
southern states. Ibe character ot Ihe6e great staple articles for export should not be thus trifled with. We met with the following in the Statesman, of yesterday, and give it a republication for the information of our readers: Mr. Gregg: Believing that my course in the meeting held here on the 30ih ult. is misrepresented by 6ome, 1 deem it a duty I owe to myself aud the public, to give my reason for not wishing to act on the committee appointed at that meeting, to draft resolutions. At the last election, it will be recollected that 1 was a candidate, and was elected by a vote that forbids me to think I was opposed because of my political opinions. This being the case, and no question raised as respects rm self, I thought it improper to assume a position now that would look like Using the official influence thus conferred upon me, to advance a party questiuu which could not affect myself. This was my reason for declining the appointment; thereby letting the committee have full power to act as it pleased, as to the propriety of the nominating system. My political opinions have never been disgui?ed. I sup ported the present worthy Chief Magis trate in two elections, and if Heaven spares my health, I intend lending my feeble aid to his re-election; believing the course of his administration to be well calculated to forward the prosper ity ot our common and happy govern ment. Yours, 8zc. JOHN SPENCER April 21st, 1831. Military liberty ! A seaman on board the U. S. frigate, dated Guerrero, (,al laobay, Nov. 28, 1830, thus writes to his father in Boston: "We have been at Valparaiso, Co quimbo, Guayaquil, Payta, Juan Fer nandez, and the city of Lima. The latter 1 admire most of any, from its magnificent buildings and its pround and ancient looking churches, which ex cue in llie ioreigner much curiosity Thi3 country is designated by the term of free, and the people are as lYee as a flock of sheep broke from their fold, and ranging the wilderness at the mer cy of every wolf, who chooses to take them under hi3 protection ; so much for South American liberty." Pou! son's Adv. Commercial Bank, On Saturday last the following gentlemen were elected Directors of the Commercial Bank of Cincinnati Robert Buchanan, Wm. S. Hatch, I nomas Reilly, L. Ihorp, John T. Martin, David Griffin, John Young, Caleb Bates, G. R. Gilmore, E. C. Smith, Francis Read, Henry Orne, Elisha Brigham. The Directors met on Monday evening last, and elected Robert Buchanan, esq. rresident. 1 ins election we un derstand has given very general satisfaction to the stockholders, and will give the public conGdencc in the institution. National Rep, April 15. Gen. John Carr, having returned from New Orleans, has put all doubts at rest as to the fact of his being a candidate for congress in this (the 2J) congressional district. lie has consented to serve his fellow citizen?, should he be their choice. Gen. Carr is well known as an able and highly respectable member of the Republican family of Indiana, one who was with us in tbe beginning, and who had the honor of giving the vote of Indiana, as an elector, for general Jackson in 1821. His long residence in the country, his high character as a citizen and the many important military and civil offi ces which he has filled in the state, render him a strong man with the peo pie, and a tormidable competitor to those who may oppose him, Ind. Democrat. Debt. A bill for abolishing impris onrnent for debt, has passed the hou&e of assembly of New-York, by a vote of 79 to 24. U is expected to pass the senate without serious difficulty. Martmico. A letter cf tbe 9th March says "There are thirty or forty ne groes to be,executed this week.
