You have warned me of tbe duties ihatmay devolve upon me, and that re must be up and doing, and that there is no time for slumbering on oar part but to use our ardent and unremitted exertions for the furtherance of'the election of the hero of two

wars. 5 My dear Sirs, could it be attested that Gen. Jackson had been personally in imminent danger 6c had there acted heroic and brave, aud had he acted humane, would that qualify him for the great functions of our Chief Magistrate?

You instruct me to use every exertion in obtaining subscribers for the Aunotator a paper edited at Salem, Washington County ou say that press is and will be devoted to your cause, and through the medium of that p^per and in proportion to its circulation depends much ot the success of the cause in this State

But,-Sirs, under that recommendation I should find few subscribers in this county while we may and can make our own annotations without itat editorial aid.

FOR THIS REGISTER.. f'ie Voters of the ftrst Congressional District of Indiana In the present state of politica^ ex whfcn the feelings ot all

men appear wrought |(o the highest possible pitch when both parties are straining every nerve, to forward the elevatiou of their favorite candidate, for the first office in the gift of the American people and when at a time like this as might be expected, the pride cf opinion and the force of prejudice are alike artfully played upon, for the purpose of aiding the selfish designs of a few individuals a mongstyou —au appeal to your reason, and to your reason alone, will surely require no apology from one. who cannot, in any event hope to profit by the issue of the election The intention of the writer in addressing you. is barely (o state facts as they exist, unencumbered with the mists, thrown around mauv of them by the political schemers of the day, arid through some of which, erroneous impressions as to the public course already pursued and yet likely to be pursued by your present Representative in Congress, have been instilled iuto the minds of a number ,-ho have not as yet had an opportuity of examining for themselves Many of these impressions will be found upon examination, to have no support whatever in truth, no reliance upon the facts which govern them. As to the motives which actuate him he would barely remark, that in pursuing this course, he is neither under the influence of a blind partiality for Colonel Blake, or prejudice against Colonel Boon lie would as much disdain becoming the eulogist of the one, as he would the traducer of the other. It is only

But the manner in which Jit is" efi-" deavored to make that election ope rate upon the minds ol many amongst the people whilst selecting their immediate representatives, is as novel as it is astonishing. those amongst you who have thrust themselves forward as the leaders of the Jackson party, an attempt is maue to draw the line of demarkation upou all occasions and for all offices, an idea is insidiously circulated that no man should receive support from the political friends of General Jackson, unless he himself is of the sam^ pel suasion. Wo matter what oilier to which he aspires, however weil qual ified he may be for the functions of that office, or how superior may be his pretensions to those of his adversary, unless he is attached to that party we are toid by them in publications and speeches, that he must be neglected for the sake of the cause His preference for or against a sin gle individual is thus to be made the fest cf his competency, for a faithful and upright discharge of his official duties. Properly considered, this places General Jackson in a situation which, patriot as I do believe

Should ftheir course, however, prove successful in furthering such tasi"usf and were no other consequences to^be apprehended the thing mi"ht be passed silence, as a ca,amity to be sure, but of a temporary character, one which would subside with the spark that

where principle is involved, that he tion for Mr. Adams over General Jackson, has elicited an opposition is willing to enlist, and in so doing to "give to Ca sar Caesar's due. From the supporters of General Jackson I would at this time particularly ask their attention to the present number. This request is made with the more propriety, inasmuch as there is no intention to treat upon the presidential election, or the merits of the men who are candidates for that office with these there is no need of concern 01her and far better souices of information upon this subject abound throughout the country for such as desire to investigate

Every possible exertion is now used to make the election between Col Boon and Col Blake hinge upon the preference which they respectivcly give the candidates for the presiden cy. It is generally conceded, that the views entertained by Colonel Blake, with regard to the gene ral policy of our government, in both its foreign and domestic relations, are such as meet the decided approbation of a large majority of his constituents no objection has been urged against him upon this score, or, in fact upon any other, truly tangible in its nature he it seems in exercising that right of pinion, which is the inherent privilege of every citiven in the United States, from (he highest to the lowest, in giving, as a man, his predelic

wa not a question stalled, and made the test of all offices when in reality that question should arise but in one single instance- the election of electors for President? Here we find the strong features by which factions bave been designated we can 1 race its object by the avowed disposition to elevate, without regard to merit or qualifies tion, such only as embrace its tenets, and we already begin to feel some of the inroads which it is ever destined to make upon social happiness and social intercourse When men suffer themselves to be carried insensibly by political fervour to such lengths as now threaten us, the warn ing cannot sound too loudly on their ears.

Many erroneous accounts have

published, from which the public might be induced to believe that every thing was not only in a train of amicable adjustment between Turkey and Greece—but that lurkev had eviuced a disposition to make her submission to Russia, to return to the treaty of Akermann, and to pay Russia a certain sum ol money.

On the contrary, the latest advices left her increasing her main army, at Adrianople, and strengthening the forts ot the Dardanelles."
