The poor and industrious mechanic, who U compelled to labour 6 hours in a d iv, d es n-t make more than five shillings i i a week for his wages some are only able to ptocure, by the most riqid economy potatoes and salt for their wives, children, and families, and some are des tituteeven of that sorry meal. ! he same gnt lorn an informs us.tliat in those abodes where formerly resided health, and comfo t, atid abun ance, naked children wee found crying for bread, while the lean hazard and ghastly countenances of the p irents hetrav symptoms of starvation M inv of these families are in a state of al most absolute nakedness.

ent in spirit to accept a favor, or to sue and fearless ot power. But how cou.d Jackson receive a favor ? A man whose character and fame are equally above the incumbents of office, and out of the ieac!i of their influence? it is for him to confer favors on the administrators of the general government and the people, always irv submission to the laws and the constitution, to reverence the one, obey the other and respect them all. As a writer, general Jackson docs ixt fade in comparison with any of his cotemporaries. His composition is replete with energy, fire, and expression. His meaning burns on his page a flame calm, lambent and unflaring; giving light so that no man can misconceive him, or fail to feel what he writes. It is the untamed eloquence of a spirit that despise? the petty embellishments that give more obstruction to the meaning than they impart beauty to the style. It is not the elaborate composition of an author culling phrases from the depositories of language and the gentleman, vhich serves as a mirror to reflect his civil and militaiy character, and conveyincr in bold dktiong impressive truths. "All beauteous eloquence resigns her charms To the grim soldier, dress'd in horrid arms. It has been alledged that his temper is fiery and jmpet'uous; but it might with more justice be said that his mind is powerful, enthusiasiic and commanding. Living up to that simplicity which should always characterise a republican citizen, he is equally an enemy to excessive wealth, gorgious magnificiei ce and courtly pomp. He has borne his success-s Sc his glory with the moderation of j man too well read in the book of human life to be made gidd by app'ause, or presumptuous by power.
