Allow us now to mention a few of the t,ri e v ; nces arising trora Jackson s policy, lr r.,,tlt-.r r,.,!i,Ma i!ii- aenn.lna msnv phases ss tha moon. The. tale is an old one. nn d we should not recur to it, but we find that the people are beginning to forget those good old songs which were sting with so much r.dvantage in -D, and we r.tk of those who feel that their memories are refreshed by our recital, that they will immediately eet it to a good, lively time and sing it wherever a hstner mav be found. Jackson know thnt in velbinr the Uni ted 'tales Iltmk, vacuum wou 11 b coeated in the finance of the coiintrv !;o knew that the death of the bank would draw oil' so much of the circulating medium of the country, that it would be seriously felt by the people unless the eii could be remedied.

This was done. A tremendous financial fever re.ged throughout the country, to be followed by as severe a chid. F.'.en at the cl .se of his administration, Jackson exclaimed 'I leave the people prosperous and happy." Need we pursue the story? Does not every boy in the country know the effects which followed the withdrawal of the public money from ilia pet Banks? Then, and not till the:. was the decease of the United States Bank felt. By governmental instructions, the pet Banks supplied the place of the I, . S. Bank until they in their turn, became subjects of wretched experiment, md were compelled to yield their obedient ghosts to the power which for a time, had nourished them. Then came the grievances. Thm came broken banks, bd mcnev, destruction of confidence .-a paralysis felt upon industry "vetoed" wxs written upon the doors cf our wmkshopp, manufactories and store houses ruin and discredit tod; the place cf prosperity and happiness, and the country indeed felt that the- United States Hank was dead.

The Called Jade Winces. ' It is a practice ..mongsi sums people it h a practice amongst some vvould-be-leadcrs of parties, to descend to ever little, low, mean, pitiful artifice within their power, to deceive and deludd the unsuspecting. li-?ct:t!y we have had an exhibit of this kind on the part of some !ocofoees in attempting to saddle upon the wings, th.at to our party are aser'.bable all the evils resulting from the Native American associations existing in many parts of the United States. Tnc allegation is as false, as its propagators are base and unprincipled, and we defy any one of them to add ueu ths least spark of evidence to prove their slanderous asserslous. They say ihe Native Americans are ail wbigs that the whigs were the movers of the late Philadelphia riots, and that the reason of the whigs going in so strongly for Native Americanism, is because the foreigners ail turn locofocos. It is hot uncommon t'r niMi to use vague asstrsious, but when they use po.-itive, terms while traducing the character of i lie whig party, we think it high lime to ask for proof. We fortunately have irour possession two letters

from .Mr. Benjamin Olney, a resident of New Orleans, and as staunch a locofoco as exists any where, urging us to advocate the cause of the Native Americans. Mr. John MeClure, well known in this county, when last here, distributed scores of Native American documents, and strongly urged its policy upon his acquaintances. He is a rampant locofoco, and none an deny it. Now, if these facts are not sufficient to nail ths lie on these seurrillous squabblers, we can furnish more. " Drowning men will catch at straws," and as these poor devils find themselves in the political whirpoo! of destruction, they think to keep themselves above water bv catching at this phantom bucy, but 'tis all fanUy, and they are doo.ued to an inevitable and just political death.

Our reat.er4- weie advised a week or two ago that a tnass Cnnv-'uMm at the Bluffs near Petersburg?! waa to come off on the ISih of July. Since that tune we have learned that very extensive preparations have been made to accommodate as great a number as may be present, even should that number exceed ten thousand. Wc iiave also learned with much pleasure that great numbers diim gointr from different parts of this county. Our Pike brethren have extended a free invitation and a hearty welcome to ad, md n e do hope that our fiieuds far and near will be there. A brilliant array of talent is anti dpated among the speakers on that occasion. (gJ70n last. Saturday evening the locos held a meeting in th Town Ha!!, agreeable ti previous notice, at which they entered int.) the spirit of having a public barbecue, thinking it the best way to get together the (Hnocrccy of Knox. Now this is all we!! enough wo like to see them do things up brown, and c.-thibit a disposition to make the best fight they can. Just b fore the close of the meeting, Judge Law arose and said ho thought it his duty to make a few lemarks, never having had an opportunity before of addressing his democratic friends since his return from the Baltimore nominating Convention. 'idie Judge went on to say that there wi3 a diversity of opinion as to who should be the nominee for President they finally, however, aft-T adopting the two-thirds rule, succeeded in nominating James K. Polk cf Tennessee. The Judge then stated, that on his return home, passing through New York and seeing conclusively the state of feeling existing as to the Presidency and Vice Presidency cohversii g too, with very prominent and influential gentlemen of tha. State, he was drawii irresistibly to the conclusion, and would stfite it as his most solemn conviction, that N -iw York would give Polk and i '.alias a clear, sweeping m-.jority of thirty thousand votes. Thh jovful intelligence produced a veiling ami clapping such as is seldom heard. Next came Pennsylvania. Pretty much the same language was used in regard to this state as was used about New York. He said he could assure his democratic friends, that as sure as the election day rolled round, the iev-stone state woutu ten a u;e ol ".io.tmw T 1 II - t r .-v - r. 1 v majority for Polk and Dallas f Another yeil.) After leaping over irginia. Iven tuckv. and Otiio, he landed m Uoos er land, and he could also say in relation to Indiana, that with proper efforts, there was no doubt under Heaven, but that she would oast as large a vote for Poik and Dallas, as Gen. Harrison obtained in '40 (Another yell.) We like to hear the Judge speak r 1 tte is a pretty speaker, and tells a tale w ith so much plausibility tuat one is annost con strained to think him in earnest. We know tine Jude. We know that lie knews it is absolutely necessary to say something to raise the flagging spirits of his party, even though it be for Buncombe. We know that he did not believe what be was saying when be was claiming New York, Pennsylvania and Indiana. Why the man might aswell claim Ketituckyas either of them indeed, we thought he would have done so, and probably would, had he not known it would have stripped him of ad appearance of candor. We think it tlagicious in the Judge to take three States from us in cue night, but, as sure as time is now pes-ing away, the result will jveve Inmeirically .i;.poji;e to that stated by cii- dctrma'.ical fr i:i:J.

This was occasioned, we believe, so far as the many contradictory stories can be reconciled with probability, by the crowd pressing on the company of Cad walader O.-eys, Cant. R. K. Scott, and the City Guards, Capt. Hill. Orders were given to the men to force them back, and in doing so one of the officers encountered a man who refused to retreat; the officer thereupon struck him with his sword and the blow was returned. A scufil then ensued, a brick was thrown from tho crowd at the soldiers, and immediately afterwards ihe firing commenced. It seems from all that can be gathered that the crowd were besought to retire by tho officers, and their obstinate refusal compelled them to resort to the last means. The soldiers commenced firing by files, and from thirteen to twenty shots told among the crowd, and at least seven men were killed almost instantly. This volley caused the dispersion of the crowd, but increased the exasperation of il.e disaffected to a fearful pitch. A mob gathered in the rear of the Commissioners' Hall, where two or three of the bodies of the slain were carried, and after an angry parley, broke into the Hall and took therefrom a considerable number of the muskets, which had been brought from the church and deposited there. Threats were made against a number of soldiers, who wee stationed in the lower story of the Hall, and finally a gathering washad at the Hay Scales, near the Wharton Market, below the Southark Railroad, anu about i o'clock a body of men came down Federal street preceded by a four pounder cannon, roughly mountet and drawn with ropes. The men who fol lowed in the rear were armed with muskets in part, and with pjher instruments of offe.m-e. They preceded to Front st . and up Front street to Queen, where they quietly placed the cannon at the middle of ihe junction of the streets, so as to range along Queen street, towards Second, at which latter street a body of military and a s-ix pounder were placed. The darkness favored their operations, and they were undisturbed until they had fired the piece, which was heavily loaded with fragments of iron, that had been hastily collected. At the same time lhe mob fired with muskets in the same direction from such cov- , , .. - . , , 1 ered positions as they cou d find, and the I 1 , ,', , .

He had fired the piece twice, and was about to apply the match a third time, when a musket near him revealed the position of the mob to the military, and they instantly fired their piece. A grape t-hot took effect in Cook's groin, and killed him instantly. An old man named Field, was also killed by two bullets, which passed through his breast. A young man who was not recognised was likewise shot dead. At half past nine o'clock, a meeting of the disaffected was held at V barton Mar ket without ostensible object.

j r, is-now said that three of the soldiers kiljeJ lwo or lltee in.Klay wounded . , considerably huit in all auout twelve. The Philadelphia Inquirer, in its ac count of the riot of Sunday night, says : The heaviest discharge of fire-arms look nhi,i f nhmit half nast 10. when two . in I ' - . , evidenlIy froiu a large body of soldiers. Again, a briet pause ensued only brief, however, for the discharges and volleys, both ot artillery and musketry, now came thick and fast. The scene in the immediate vicinity was indeed appalling wives screaming for their husbands, children for their fathers, and all alarmed and terrified in the extreme. Mangled and dead bodies ever and anon borne along, reports of friends or relatives killed, rushes of the crowd from tome false or real ground of apprehension all bore witness to & frightful drama that was in progress. The Philadelphia Ledger says that at midnight of Sunday, after the military had dispersed the mob, they were occasionally assailed by random shots from behind houses, and from alleys, winch did not do much damage. Several horsemen, wlio conveyed intelligence from the scene of action to headquarters, were fired atLater. A slip from the Philadelphia Chronicle, received by last night's Lastem mail, gives the following particulars up to noon of yesterday: The Natives possessed a great advantage over ths military, by their position, being1 in a hollow, while the hitter were a.t lhe top of a hill the fire from the Natives, which was directed with great precision, raked the men, principally from the waist hp, while that from the military invariably passed over the Natives. All along Queen street, above and below the church for some distance, presents a truly warlike appearance. Window shutters, doors, frot:ts of houses, trees, tree-boxes, &zc, all indented with balls and shot, and the pavements, g titers, streets, steps, and door jams stained with blood, (n some pLces it flowed down the gutters this was mostly ihe blood of the military, drawn by the Natives. At one time dining the night, for about two hours, all communication with the Major General, by his aids, was suspended. Natives were stationed in hiding places, along lhe streets over which the aids rode, and they fired upon them, intercepled them, and threw stones, brickbats, &c. None of them were injured, however. Col. Pieasanton, who was wounded in the spine, on Sunday night, is reported to have died about eleven o'clock to-day. Half peist three.

We learn that certain unprincipled locofoco leaders have busied themselves in the circulation of a rumor throughout Louisville, and those other portions of the State where the Catholics are numerous, that Mr. Frelinghuysen is a member of the Native American association. We have already branded this story as a base slander, and we again brand it as a base slander as base a slander a3 ever was invented. Mr. Frelinghuysen is not a member of that association, and not one of his calumniators dares stand publicly forward and say that be is a member of it. To S3 v that he 13 a member of it is

as bald and naked and atrocious a calumny as it would be to say that Henry Ctay or John C. Calhoun is a member of it. He has no connection with it, near or remote, direct or indirect, expressed or understood ; and he has never done any

thing whatever to promote or give countenance t it or its obj. ets. It is a fact, which wc are determined shall be understO' tl, that Loeofocoi -m ha had far more to do than Wbigism with the Tetting up of the Native American associations throughout this country. Thfirst Native American association in the United States was established in New Orleans and it3 founder, its life, and iti soul, was the notorious Dr McFarlane, then and now the bitterest and most boisterous Locofoco in thai city. Within the last year he has been a Locofoco candidate for office, end the whole party units,! to a man in support of him. The Native American association of New York was founded by the Locofucos oi uie iMiiiu wain, mo BiiLiiigct i.uo'ijco ward in the city. All the Whig pi pers of the city, the Courier and Enquirer, the American, the Commercial, and the Tribune, have, from first to last, ste -d iy opposed the association ami its obj'c'.i with their whoie energy and induc-iieu, while the onjy political paper that has giv en the s!ighwrountenance to it has been the Journal ot Commerce, edited by men. who regularly vote for the Locofoco ticket, and whose feelings and sympathies arc all wi ili the Locofoco party. The formation of the Native American association in Philadelphia was whollv a Locofoco proceeding. The editor of the newspaper organ of the association, .Mr. L. C. Levin, wdio made the public speech that provoked the bloody Philadelphia ri ots, was, when he lived in the West, and is still, as violent a Locofoco as ever breath - d. The Whig party of the city ha 1 nothing to do with those disgraceful riot except in the way of quelling them, a:;'! . the Whig newspapers had nuihk g t .m with them but in the way of condemning them. 1 he agitation is still kept up Philadelphia and its subcrbs, but 'tis kei.. up omv ny Juovm and I iOco lie .i - com n.ices. A mass metun - of the . :; live Americans of Souibark, Philadelphia, was held on Tuesday week. They adopt ed resolutions of ;j,e m..&l exceptional,-!-'. ircscripti ve, and anti-republican charac ter. A Air. Urover, a veiv prominent .'' foeo, was called to the chair, smkl-.t loud cheers. He was too twiwtdl to pi'e.-ide. and Co!. Lemuel Paynter, late Locof'VJ i.iember of Congress, tool; the chair. A dozen vice presidents ami M"ret:sries were appointed, nearly nil rf ichota n re Locofocos. The district in which the meeting was held is strongly Loc. 4',, o. Thus it is seen with whom and among whom ativ2 Imericanimi takes its tise, and by whom it is encouraged and upheld. Some of the vile Locofoco demagogues here would ha-ve the Catholics ami foreigners believe that the Locofocos are their only friends.
