Jackson to tbe Presidency, and well has been, and is, the action of the gov-1 ernment under hiin, that his party, diminished as it is, are not even yet agreed as to what are his amnions or his policv. Whilst the tories ia Knoxvillc, Tennessee, address ! him in such language as this, "Already i -.j i .j f ...r .... 'sad you succeeded in a modification of an impressive protective Tariff, in removing ike grounds of Southern discontent, and ItinIcred their clamor from maluring into insurrectionary movements, threatening the destruction of the Empire,'1'' the Louisville Advertiser speaks of the same compromise, as a measure "attkibutaulis to the cauuox between Clay and Calhoun," and one "which can only lndlbe until its OWOUSNESS SHALL BE EXPOSED, AND ITT EFFECTS ON THE CARDINAL INTERESTS OF HIE COUNTRY UNDERSTOOD." We haVC here one and the same identical measure heid up by one portion of the Jackson party, as having produced a pacification of the union and incalculable benefit to the nation, whilst another portion of the same party is denouncing it, as causing boundless ruin to the cardinal interests of the country. Although we commenced this article merely to place these contradictory state menus in the neighborhood of each other, andhus show to what straits the tories are j reduced for mailer for'tho graUhcation ot their master abuse of the wings, wc will make a tew remarks by way ot dbmment. i
Whatever may have been the characteaori Dut aia6t low few of either escape untendency dt the compromise, the Jackson i hurt party deserve neither praise nor censure! j,, drunkards mT(i oncc modemk torit. If that measure quelled the "insur- . .. . .
rectlonary movements," which, in the South 3 south ttfcutened tne tinoii, great praise is due to r. vlay mn... r. ,r... . if, as the Advertiser says, it it "odious," and destructive of "the cardinal interests of the country," where we would ask was the President, Veto? True, ice do not think the compromise bill was a fit object for the veto prerogatory: nevertheless Gen. Jackson has exercised it upon slighter occasions. Hp is not at all dainty in the use of that nower and. according to the doctrine of. the vetoes, he should have negatived a bill of such disasterous tendency. Our readers need not now be reminded of the condition of public atliiirs, which gave j rise to the "compromise:" the terror and dismay w hich siczed upon the land are of too recent occurence to be forgotten. Nor need we inform the public who it was tliat the rescue, and caught upon his arm the blow which would otherwise have annihilated the tariff.

SHORT SAYINGS. There are great complaints of the great number of places where ardent spirit is sold. What occasions the supply? The demand. Were there uo buyers there would be no sellers. I like a good glass of liquor, says one. What does be me.in? Why one that will do the most speedy execution. The best way to encourage sobriety is to set the example. Your bill for spirits was large last year. Add to it one hundred per cent, for loss of time, bad bargains, accidents, &c. and then calculate the amount. Ardent spirit was formerly placed upon the shelves of thesapothecary, and sold by "drachm," which was considered a dose. Could our forefathers view our dram-6hops, what a strange idea they would have of the health of this generation. It is reason which distinguishes man
from the brute; what madness and folly then to indulge in the use of that which ... .... destroys reason, and abolishes the most important distinction between mau and the beasls that perish, The most appropriate motto for a spirit relaiftrs sign is, "Beggars made here." If a young woman wishes to destroy herself, let her wed a man who frequents the tavern and grog-shops. As well might the bulcher cry, at every stroke of his knife, "Live," as for one man to drink to the health of anolher, when in the very act of destroying it. Cannot friends meet without throwing fire down each other's throats? Is it friendship to assist in killing each other? Ardent spirits as a drink, like the needle to the pole, always points to the prison, the asylum, the poor-house and the grave-yard. A glass or two, it is said, will do no harm; neither will the flittine of a moth around the flame of a candle; . . .' . . . ' . . ate drinker that he shall not become drunkard? BARUJN ADULFH DE LA'TflElSTfcli. A splendid looking Prussian about 30 years of age came to Madison some six or eight weeks since, claiming for himself the above appellation.

He was living upon his money and taking bis pleasure.

As Moore is an authority on this subject, we wortld reccomend to the attention of the ladies the following brief extract from some of his observations in the Memoirs of Lord Edward Fitzgerald, which he has just published ; he agrees with another poet, "That in natures of this kind (the warm and enthusiastic, a first love is almost always but a rehearsal for the second, that imagination must act as a taster for the heart before the true thirst from the soul' is called forth and that accordingly out of this sort of inconstant to one object is oftenestseen to spring the most passionate and even constant devotion to another."

Need I remind you of many instances in which candidates for the; House of Representafives have been proclaimed and supported by all the powerand influence of the President's name, and the patronage of the administration. Have we not seen the same j power and influence brought to bear in
he State elections, for the purpose of
forming tne ataie legislatures as 10
con-support the Cruet Magistrate, and elect Senators to tbe United States to sustain
his measures? Do we not seethe office holders moring in phalanx? Do we not see conventions oeiu oy sencreated representatives, and committees organized under the control of office holders, to manage a national conven- .- . n tyranny. The power and inttuence ot the Government is about to be made greater than the rights and influence of the people. The passport to office is the indiscriminate support of every act of the President; brawling partisans are rewarded from tbe public Treasury; freedom of opinion is threatened with dismissal from office; and office holders, Senators and Kepresentat.ves are taught to expect promotion, according lo their zeaious suppori oi me queslionanie or me most ouious act. o. mnuence is oroug... v freedom of elections, anu w mi uie iree dotnof inquiiyinthe halls of Congress. The expenditures of the government are increasing to enlarge Uie patronage of the Government, and the patronage of the Government so increased k to be exerted to sustain the President and the receivers of sallaries, jobs, and contracts. The people are to be governed by their own servants and money, by fraud and deceit. I see no remedy but by the people in theii primary assemblies ahd at the polU. They must cause their interests and Ihe'rsentimeuts; to respected they must make known ihat the people are to be represented that representatives are the trustees and agents of the people, and not the crvanls of (he President.
