FAIjILABIUM.

Iiawrcnccbnrsh, Jan. 28.

DEMOCRATIC REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE fr president JACKSOIT.

The Legislature is expected to adjourn the coming week. The trial of Alfred J- Athon, a Justice of the Peace in Lawrer.ce County, iro peached for maleficience in office, will probably be the la3t business of the Senate.

LrcK. Mr. Gregg, of the Statesman, has been appointee', by the Governor, Sheriff of this county, to supply the place of Col. Spencer, resigned. Th announcement of this faet has the precedence of all other important intelligence, in the columns of the Statesman of yesterday, & is, probably, true. It is a most JSTobte appointment; and will give Mr. Gregg an op. portunity of testing whether op not the man who could not be elected a County Commission er, can be elected a County Sheriff

Mobi Lcck. The subscribers to Webster's Dictionary, in this neighborhood, have, the present week, been furnished with their copies. This has enabled the editor of the4Statesman to give the Doctor'ajdefiuition of the word raliitJ" But for this timely and lucky circumstance, he and his readers wouldjstill have been groping in. midnight darkness, and we, luckles wight, should have lost his gratuitous 'caution.' Dr. Webster's definition of the term is worth as much as that of any other member of his party; no more. Dr. Johnson, in the first editions of his Dictionary defined pension to be "an allowance or annual payment, considered in the light of a bribe." tiz was subsequently a pensioner himself and altered his definition. We merely state this fact, to show that lexicographers, like ordinary folks, are fallib'e. If Dr. Webster has correctly defined the term, Tt seems to us that the editor of the Statesman should rather commend than censure us for asserting that Mr. Clay is supported by the remnant of that party. Have you not committed you.ss'f.Mr. Gregg?

" The Boston Patriot and the Boston Advertiser are united under the title of The Boston Daily Advertiser and Patriot.' On reading the abjve remark in an eastern paper, recollection carried us back to the time when the Boston Patriot was the leading democratic journal of New-England; when a Gerry, & Sullivan, a Ballard, an Austin, a Dunlap, and a host of other worthies, contemporaries of Jefferson, were its contributors and support, era. But it passed into other and less patriotic hands, made common cause against the democracy of the country, in conjunction with the Boston Repertory, Boston Centinelj &c. &c, and the consequence s, it has been abandoned by its former supporters and is now swallowed up by the Daily Advertiser the organ of the NewEngland peace party in war, and war party in peace, Verily, it bath its reward .

Tbere probably never was a presidential cr.n . vass conducted with more virulence than that which is now progressing. Slander, which used to be described as walking in darkness, and hiding her head in the clouds, has, forthe pur. pose of defaming Gen. Jackson, descended into our streets and exhibited herihideous features unveiled to the day. The reflections of those who at last find;all their efforts unavailing, must be bitter enough. Tue slanderers by profession and in a country like this, where the press is wholly uncontrolled, there must be many such canrot, of course, feel any regret. It will be no'hingto them to change sides, and direct their batteries against their former friends. But to those who step out of their way to wound the Piesident, and whose talents and reputation give them more thanlordinary influence, his re election will be peculiarly galling. They have signed their own condemnation, and they cannot complain if the sentence be promptly executed, in being turned over, by an indignant people, to the contempt, and ignominy which they merit so justly. Fras. A house which is now being built by Mr. Spooner, on Walnut Sireet, came nigh being destroyed by fire yesterday. It wa-s caused by the fire communicating to some shavings in the absence of the workman; but was, happily, discovered in season to prevent much damage. liatc Foreign Kcws. Frorn the N. Y. Courier &. Enquirer. We are indebted to xWessrs. Fish, Crinnell &; Co. for the use of London papers to ihc 21th November, from which we make the following extracts. The L ndoj Morniug Herald, speaking of the probability of the powers of Europe disarming, holds the following language: If we saw any certain indications of the despotic governments of the continent laying aside their projects of ambit ion --their intermeddling policy their jealousy of free States their ancient htred of a representative system; ifwesLnv any proofs of their abandoning tba Machievelian principle which nickel thern say one thing and mean anoiher; if ihey afforded us any certain grounda for believing that they had b ecome enlightened enough to know that it is easier and safer to govern by justice than by oppreesion; if, above all, we perceived that they had derived sufficient instructions from experience to learn that the rights of Kings can never be secure until the nghts of the people are respected, and that the beat protection of throues ia

the rational freedom of nations $ if wc saw these signs of sobriety and wisdom in the acts and conduct of the rulers of the continent, we should consider the reports of a general disarmament, with a view to a universal and lasting peace, not difficult of belief, because we should, in that case see moral causes leading the way to such a just and desirable political decision. But we confess we see none of those moral proofs of a transition (rem the government of force to the government of enlightened power among the continental despots: on the coutrary, the fall of Poland is likely to stimulate

Russia, whose power has been contmu ally growing in Europe ever since the

retreat of the French from Morrow, to push the advantages, both in -Europe and Asia, which the guilty connivance, or the not less criminal weakness of other governments has allowed her to obtain. She achieved a great object of her ambition when Turkey, her ancient rival, and our "ancient ally," sunk beneath her arm. Now r Poland lies crushed ather feet. By her conquests in Persia she holds the keys of the East ; and in Greece, though her minion, Capo d'Jstrag, be no more, her influence still struggles to chain to her barbarous dominion those beautiful provinces which Turkey has lost, and which would give her a great naval station on the shores of the xMediterranean. Will the success with which she has pursued her conquests of late, extinguish the ambition out of which the lust of conquests springs? Alas! ambition is that passion of which it may be most truly said, that "increase of appetite but grows upon what it feeds on." Russia has succeeded in her recent enterprises of aggrandizement beyond her most sanguine expectations ; and, after taking the repose which the destructive Polish campaign made necessary, will arise to pursue her career of ambition, "like a giant refreshed with wine." In the meantime unhappy and fallen Poland is in the dust. Protestations of clemency are made and, in the moment of being made, are most cruelly belied. The capitulation of Warsaw has ben treated as waste paper. The citizens of Warsaw have no security of property or life. Numbers of those who remained or returned to Warsaw on the faith of the capitulation have been torn in the dead of night from their homes, and dragged in chains to expiate their love of country in the mine3 or the wilderness of Siberia. A Russian government is established in Poland contrary to the treaty of Vien

na the property of such distinguished patriots as Czartoryski and Chlopicki has been confiscated the members of the Diet are persecuted. The excrated Constantine, the mantle of whose power has fallen on the Grand Duke Michael, seems to have bequeathed him some of his peculiar talents for government, of which the whole energy might be summed up to the art of driving a generous people desperate. A people, we say; because, if no more vigorous intervention lakes place than any which the Powers that are parties to the treaty of Vienna have yet exercised on behajf of Poland, that ancient, that noble, that chivalrous people,

snail no longer exist as a nation. Russia must govern by armies, while her policy is oppression. As to Austria, has she yet relaxed the iron grasp of despotism by which she holds her Italian dependencies? Has she abandoned her assumed riiiht

to pour in her armies upon the "Inti

pendent Italian States," if they should dare once more to choose their own forms of government? The true answer to these questions will show whether she is desirous of a general disarmamement or not. Has the King of Prussia yet given his people the promised constitution which induced them to rise against Buonaparte? Has his Government begun to see the true interest of the country, and separated from that political alliance with Russia which renders Prussia the fascinated 6lave of the gigantic barbarism of the north? Can 6he disarm before Russia gives the word of command? Is there not more than one successful revolution more than one "bad example," as the Duke of Wellington called the revolution of France, to be put down in Europe? Is not the King of Holland, at the present moment, endeavoring to put down a "bad example?" Is he not desirous of doing in Belgium what the Emperor Nicholes did in Poland, and nothing more? Can the Holy Alliance seriously find fault with him for endeavoring to carry their own principles into effect? They may temporize, indeed, because circumstances make it necessary; but the long continued coquetry between him and the "Conference" proves that the simple politicians who believe the Belgian affairs settled, have something more to learn than any protocols have yet disclosed. In place of all this moral evidence against the probability of a general disarmament to which, indeed, we ought to add the iureusing audacity

of the Carllsfs or Franco, who confidently count, for some secret reason6, upon a restoration we have what facts? We are told that the Prussian Lmdwehr are returning home, and that a great number of furloughs have been given to soldiers in the Austrian service. As to the Prussian militia, they

usually go to their homes in winter, whence they can be assembled at a very short notice; and as to the A"stmn furloughs, they would rather indicate that Austria intends to continue her armies on the present footing than the contrary : otherwise why not grant

discharges to her soldiers, instead of

furloughs, which bind them, after a de

finitive time, to return to their respective corps? Surely nobody expected a winter campaign.

We republish to-day from the Kentucky Gazette, a letter from Washington, in which the existing relations between Messrs. Adams and Clay are discuFsed. Though one heretofore an unit during the reign of the coalition they are twain now; each standing offon his dignity. Mr. Clay suspect? hia nomination by the Anti-mnsonic Convention was prevented by a protegee of Mr. Adams. Mr. Adnms says Mr. Clay has spoken in an unbecoming manner. Now is the time for Mr. Clay to give his promised exposition of the 'open day and secret night' transactions at Ghent, and to explain why he deemed it necessary to accept the office of Secretary of State to watch Mr. Adams and keep him straight. Louisville Adv. From the Kentucky Gazette. FROM OUU CORRESPONDENT. ASH1NGTON ClTY, Dec. 30, 1831. "Wc are now in the midst of the holydays. Congress is doing but little of any thing and the City is given up, if not to plunder, as Byron would say,

to hiccup and happiness Iu a few weeks however, the grand drama will open to which you may look forward for events, which, if predicted a twelve monthsfsince, would have subjected the unhappy seer to political impalement. The Tariffand Bank question are likely to engage much of the attention of Congress. All speculation is to an end as to the course that will be pursued by Mr. Clay, in regard to the former. Public opiniou has spoken upon the subject, and he is now striving to monopolise the honors of relieving the country from that odious system of taxation, which he had mainly contributed to impose. He is for an instantatieous reduction of duties to the amount of many millions- the first grand object of which manoeuver is to propitiate the Southern Nullifiers and the second to prevent the early extinguishment of the public debt, as proposed by Gen. Jackson. There are many nominations now before the Senate, and among them that of Mr. Van Buren. Frorn some remarks which fell from Mr. Webster a few days since, it is supposed that it will be strenuously opposed by the opposition Senators, including perhaps some two or three friendly to Mr. Calhoun. Much interest ia felt as to the result, and from calculation, it is supposed that it may possibly devolve upon Mr. Caihoun to decide it. Mr. Ciay in conversation with a Jackson member from your State, gve it as his opinion, that the nomination would be rejected not that he would oppose it. 1 doubt not however, that he will do it. From all that I can sec and learnt , there is but little intercourse between Mr. Clay and Mr. Adams. Mr. Clay in a conversation soon after his arrival in Washington, expressed himself quite freely about the agency of Mr. Baity in defeating his nomination by the Antimasonic Convention. Tins Mr. Baily is a protege of Mr. Adams, and 6tated in caucus that he was authorised in saying that if Mr. Wirt was nominated, Mr. Clay would immediately withdrew. Ifhe did not use the name of Mr. Adams, it was understood that he was Mr. Bai Iy"s authority. Mr. Clay said that Mr. Adams owed it to himself publicly to disclaim the imputed connection with Baily. This coraiug to the ears of Mr. Adam?, he declared that he would give Mr. Clay a full reply, when he thought fit to call upon him in a proper manner that it was unbecoming Mr. Clay to have spoken of the subject at the time, and in the manner he did, a:id requested "this his reply " to be conveyed to Mr. Clay. 1 know not whether any correspondence has taken place between thm; but whatever has been the finale, there is no good blood between them. Mr. Adams perhaps has not forgotten the famous Mountsterling speech of Mr. Clay, in which he was made to cut no very respectable figure." , "There is much "aA;" here about the Jackson Vice-President. Colonel Johnson will be the man. Every body appears tw be his friend, and it will be gratifying to you to hear that he is the second choice of those who from local considerations will present their particular javorites. The Boston Galaxy stiles the noted Bisil Hall, "the Literary Siobad."

From tl.tt Louisville Advertiser. We find the following article in a late Ciocinna'i .Commercial Advertiser : "SOUTH CAROLINA. "The Legislature of this State bave adjourned, after passing only thirty-two acts, (a lesson to those States whose Legislatures pass acts by the hundred, and estimate their public services accordingly;) among them one with the following title, viz: "AN ACT TO SUS

PEND THE ELECTION OF MEMBERS OF CONGRESS FROM THIS

STATE;" from which we infer, the Great and Powerful A'ation of South Carolina, has determined to withdraw from the Union! God bless us, only think of the consequence?! a population (we speak of the rotten part of the State only,) not exceeding two hundred, or two hundred and fifty thousand white?, and they iu continual fear of a servile z?ar, going to make war upon UNCLE SAM!!! It is all over with us Don Quixotte and the Windmill are noting to this! And when in addition to it we find they havejpassed acts for raising an ARMY yes! an army of probably not less than Jive hundred men! then it is we tiemble for Uncle Sam. And to crown the whole, they have passed "an act to establish a B.tnk at Columbia," the title of which is not mentionedf but is no doubt intended as tthe jXational Bank" of South Carolina with the immense capital of 500,000! for which great privilege a bonus of only 10,000 is required. But they haVe stuck it into Uncle Sam with a vengeance, having laid a taxtof twojper cent, upon his Bank." It is suspected that the Editor of the Commercial has misconceived the object of the act "to suspend the election of members of Congress" from South Carolina. It was probably passed with i . t . r

a view to make me next election ot

members under the apportionment

which will take place under the late

census.

The Act to Raise an Army was pass

ed with a view to protect their firesides

to prevent a servile war. 1 hat to establish a Bank at the town of Columbia, is not deemed treasonable, and precedents may be cited tojustifyjj it without referring to the establishment of the Commercial Bank of Cincinnati. In taxing the stock of the Bank of the United Stales, South Carolina h a only followed the example of Ohio. After all their blustering, there is nothing very tenific in the movements of the Nullifiers.

Mr. Clay, in his letter of acceptance to the Baltimore Convention, thus remarks: "Although I should have been glad if the Convention had designated Some citizen of the United States more competent than myself, to be the instrument if accomplishing the patriotic objects which they have in view, I do not feel at liberty to decline their nomination." Tell that to the marines! Did not Mr. Clay, at Vincenut, but a few weeks previous to the meetirg of the Convention, avow himself to be in the field and was it not by his management and contrivance, that the Indiana delegation chosen whilst he rcas there himself was instjuc trd to vote for the nomination of Mr. Ciay, and him only?
