The above is a sample of General Jackson's official conduct in a civil capacity It is an ordinance made bv him when Governor of Florida This was repealed by Congress at the succeeding session, by an unanimous vote, not an individual member being disposed to defend such an out* rageous usurpation of power.

By the general law on the subject of drafted militia, passed in 1795, (hey could not be compelled to serve more than three mtfiths in any one year. I

On the 18th of April, 1814, a law was passed, providing that drafted militia might be compelled to serve six months,

From Vie Winchester Republican. ANKODOTR.—Just about the tiqae that the President left Baltimore, where he spent two or three days last fall, a German farmer from York county, of great wealth and inflence, happened to arrive in the city, while the lavorable impression of Mr. Ad am's visit was in the mouth of every one. The old gentleman was sorry he had come too late, and felt inclin* ed to go down to Washington, and see him of whom every body talkedHis wife approved the proposal—the carryall was ordered out—and the next day they were in the parlour of the President, They were politely received but their mouths were sealed. They satten minutes w.thout uttering a word when the old German broke silence by saying to his partner, (in their native language,) "come wife, let's go home We've seen the President He can't talk Dutch and we musVt stay here The President iustantly replied in the old man's favorite putch. telling him he was happy to be able to entertain

ill the opinion of the

President Che public interest required it." The militia men who were executed were mustered into servicce on the 20th Jun e, 1014. If the resident expressed no opinion, their time of service, that is, three months, expired on the 19th Sept —The following certificate settles this point: Cert ficate of the Chif Clerk of the

Department of War. ^"DEPARTMENT OF WAR, January 24th, 1828. certify that I have, by direction of the Secretary of War, careful!) examined the records of this Department, and that the accompanying pa pers, numbered 1 and 12, are true copies of all the correspondence in the War Department between the President Secretary of War and the Governor of Tennessee, during the late War,on the subject of the time for which the drafted militia of said State should serve in the armies of the-United {states- And I further certify, that it does not appear, from the records of the Department, that any application was male by the Governor of'I ennessee, to the liar Department, on the subject of the length of service of the detachment, of the T+nnesse militin, detailed under the orders of the Governor of that State, issued on the2Cth da of May, 1814, arid afterwards placed under the ommirid »f Lieutenant Colonel Philip Pipkin or that any orders gen eral or special, were made or issued by the President of the United States or by the Secretary of War conCtern ing or relating to the length oj service c*f.that etachment.

When, in the course of events, it becomes necepsary for the enlightened .and reflecting citizens of a Re public to protect the wise and virtuous institutions of their ancestors from outrage and subversion when a combination of every variety o« political opinion is formed into at organized furious party3 whet the avowed and only purpose of tha* party is to overthrow au existirAdministration, without shewitiLand scarcely allpp,itJr!» all.y error, bu merely for the acquisition of pla nnd power wheft, for this purpo»\ Ihev pttf r?ir-ih evry effort, to elevat' to the highest offic, a soldier, whom they thnmse'ves have emphatically pronounced, to be unfit in every respect v4»en presses a^e bought anil established to circulate falsehood and '•alumny, and to inHatne the worst pissions of the human breast a simple regard for the integrity of 'iu* Republic, a decent respect for the iilt m. ry of its illustrious founders, requires an appeal to the sound sens^ and sober feelings of its virtuous tit izens.

We hold these truth* to be self evident That a Republican lorm of Government is more conducive to the happiness of the People than any vet devised. That the permanence such a Governinent*dt*pends upon the intelligence and Virtue of its citizens. That the fury of party is !he greatest danger it has to encounter. That the permanence of a military spirit has been the destruction of other Republics, and that a successful soldier has always become their despotic ruler. That such a ruler has always advanced to power, ty professions of deference to theii civil institutions, and pl as of necpn*ity for acts of violence. That he has always professed an aversion to conciliate opinions, and an aceep*a.ice of office. becauce it is pressed upon him. Hut, th&t, when th? p!ace is thus gained, the power is grasped. Legislatures are driverj before the bayonet, and the[Unprotected People yield to the yok«% It is true, indeed, that no danger «inticipated—that the strength and virtue of the People is thought to he a safeguard against oppression—hit he will have councilors in \vh.»m there is wisdom, and tliern he will not dare to disrrtf.&rd. But has it been so hitherto Are. these the les sons of experience-? When has hu imin passion, in pursuit of power, yielded to the dictates of prudence When has the fcuccesaful General now urged upon our choice, exhibi. edsucha character of forbearanc. and moderation His history is a history of repeated it.juries and usurpations, all having, in direct ob ject, the establishment of an absolute tyranny" over those under his control. To prcve this, let facts be submitted to cAndid men.

His private character has been marked with acts .of gross immorality and excessive violence with quarrels and tumult, and duels, in. streets and taverns —with threats, and curses, and violence, of the most vulgar nature, and with scene* which deceney abhors to describe.

He has threatened with death, an agent of this-Goveromerit, fur obeying its instructions, when they interfered with purposes.

In his battles with the Ind:an tribes r.he has been sanguinary anfl cruel. He has, -against hum inity and law, shot to death his fellow-citixeiig while serving under command.

He has instructed his ofTteers to disobey the orders ol the President of the U. States.

He has indignantly reproached the Governor of a State, for giving an order while he was in the field, tho' it did not interfere with his command.

He has disobeyed the orders of the President, in refusing to disband the militia under his command, when their services were 00 longer jrequir*SM ed. Jv.", 1*

He has established military law,-— defying the writ of habeas corpus, imprisoning judge and citb^ns,— dispersing a Legislature from their hall,—arresting a member, and trying him bv a court martial, and ex* ercising despotic rule, even after the pretended necessity for it had ceased.

He has invad?d a neutral territory nd made war without authority,— ut to death prisoners, and even u» iwlully changed the sentence ot a .ourt martial, of his own appointnent,

confinement to death.

^As the Governor of a lerritory, as established arbitrary rules, con

rary to the laws of hi* countiy, and in the corner of the "White 1 nnwpr arid uri- rnnipd hv T\tp l?t\

exercised arbitrary power and ungovernable passion,—^—imprisoning ?he azent of a foreign friendly na the agent

He has threatened personal violence to members ot th^ Congress of the U. States if they should dare to comment on his conduct, as unconstitutional and unauthorized.

He has declared that he would have executed citizens ot the .United States, under a law that gave him not the least authority to do

A. man who&e character is thus marked by every act which ip&y detine a tyrant, is unfit to be the Ruler of a free People.

Wc, therefore, who oppose the election of this Candidate, would solemnly -warn his supporters ot these, his attempts to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over the rights of the People We would remind them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement iiere, and of the glory of our Revolution. We would appeal to their native justice and magnanimity, and we conjure them, by the ties of our common kindred, to abandon this madness, which will inevitably interrupt our peacc and disturb our destiuies if they are deaf to the voice of justice and consanguinity, oe theirs the responsibility of our fate.

We, who solemnly protest against it, sincerely believe that 'he ceute&t may involve our lives, out fortunes, and oxir bacred honors
