mil stout I am one of those singular beings whose desire is to act in every instance on firincifile. I was most unfor
tunately born in the centre on the topj
ot one ol the highest hills of the Alleghany ridge, in Pennsylvania, near the line of Maryland was educated in the East married, and for a long time resided in the South, and am now a backwoodsman of the West. I am destitute of local attachment, and
gender. My cousin Dick served with
Jackson in the Soutn, and witnessed many scenes which in Dick's opinion fully prove the kindness of heart, the honesty, and the high minded integrity and honor of his old genet al. And Dick alleges, that the success of all his undertakings, shews the knowledge of men, the correctness of observation, the acuteness of intellect, and the prudence, discretion, and energy when needful, possessed by his favourite. Dick thinks it is all a hum bug to say that Jackson does not possess a sufficient acquaintance with the affairs of the nation, for says Dick my old chief has been a Judge, a Senator, a General, and now is a Senator again and more, says Dick the old fellow knew too much to go to Mexico, and thereby proved lhat he knew more of foreign matters than anv of them, and aye, as much of domestic affairs as the best of them Unless this, my application to you Mr. Pi inter, ob tains me some relief, I shall be obliged to join our neighbors, and become one of Dick's Slips of old Hickory.
