The Richmond Whig justly comments upon the failure to sustain by any shadow of proof, an accusation put forth with the utmost confidence, and repo sing as was said, upon the declaration of General Jackson himself 1 hus is another link of the chain of falsedood sh vered by the touch of truth, the real spear of ltburiel—-V. American. .lie charge made against Mr Clay, that he had promised to elect Gen. Jack son in an hour, provided, Mr. Adam was not retained at the head of the Department of State, has been fl tly contradicted by that gentleman and not the slightest attempt to sustain it has been essayed Time enough has elapsed to have heard from Gen Jackson, but lu has said nothing to support the charge made, as was said, by himself. We may then number it with the famous lies ot the day— the furniture of the President's house—the purchase of the billiard ttble—and the many others promulgated for effect We recur to this af eviction simply to remind th: reader, th a not a tittle of evidence has been adduced to establish it. The Fayetteville Observer has been called upon for names— the Virginian who wrote the letter has been called upon to avow himself—Gen Jacks, has been challenged to name the friends of Mr Clay who bore him the proposition Ihey are all silent as the grave. There is but one way to constroe this silence It is an admission that the story was a iabrication.

The 'Citizens of the counties of Peoria and Tazewell in Illinois have recently had a public meeting at the town of Peoria and passed a resolution recommending a called sesseon ot the Legislature of that state, in order that early measures may be taken relative to their contemplated canal, connecting the wa» ters of the Illinois and Lake gMichigan.

A part of the company partook of a pubhc dinner, at which a number of toasts were drank From the toasts it ap peat that the meeting was generally in lovor oi the administration and the re election of Mr. Adams.

MORGAN—In Boston.

'The White Banner, a paper publish •d in Pan ticket, I stated a few ,eek* since, that Capt. Morgan wa» actually seen the week before walking he streets of Boston, by a gentlemai) 'rorn Batavia who knew him. In con "oimity wit!) a request ol the editor of he Boston Mirror, to make known hi? authority for this statement, the editoi »f the Banner, in a subsequent publi nation, observes—

We shall state the facts as the aine to our knowledge, although, a* vc formerly stated, it is beyond ou? lower, positively to vauch for the corectness of all of them. We howevei ever yet had reason to doubt for a mo tent that they are true from the cirunistances under which they wer ommunicated to us.

A gentleman by the name of Brown, tvho formerly resided in Batavia, bu now resides in New York city,and th is well acquainted with the«famout 4 t0

Wilir^m Morgan, lately passed througl Bust Don his way to the state of Maine Ou the 21st or 22d ult. [we are not able to say which,j he met with a penonage in.- Congress-street, Boston, whose countenance in his opinion very much resembled that of his old acquain tance^Capt Morgan, and he iinmedi ately accosted hiin by his name and ti tie, feeling assured he was not mistaken in his man. The gentleman who ever he might- be, drew his cloak around hiin, and discovered some con fusion while he turned and hurried onward, without s^y answer. He wa^ closely followed and watched by Mr Brown through several lanes, till he made his escape among a crowd of poo pie in the northerly direction of the city. Such are the facts stated at the time by Brown, of whom we know nothing, but have only the particulars from a gentle man who received thein from Brown himself and others to whom he related thein in Boston and Ncwburyport, where he gave account of the matter. We do not hesitate to say that our authority is respectable and authentic, and that we shall at all times hold ourselves responsible for any statements we have made."

I11 reference to the above, the editor of the Boston Masonic Mirror, of the 21st ult. observes—"There are some corroborating circumstances, calculated to render the belief of Morgan' having been here highly probable. The first is, the fact thai about the time he is said to have been seen by Brown, an arrangement was entered into with a printer of this city, to furnish a large edition of his book in Spanish. Connected with this is another not less important. We have satisfactory evidence, that, at the time the printing of this work was engaged John Davids, one of the publishing firm, and who fur nished the mouey fur the purchase of the paper on which the first edition was printed, was in Boston. Davids has been absent from Batavia, with one exception, since the abduction ol Morgan He is suclqa man that he could have no possible business in this quarter, or any .•ther motive whatever lor travelling aoout the country than that of speculating on Morgan's book, and keeping its author in obscurity. /Ihey are both strangers here—and haidly expect to meet with a single individual to whom they are personally known. To this place then they could resurt with the greatest safety.—And circumstances justify us iu the belief that they have been here" [The description given of the supposed Morgan by the editor of the ab.ve jitper, we are told by a gentleman acquainted with the real charactc a exact.
