Mr. Whltcom, late Pnvseeut. r for the ib'th Circuit, was turned out of e'.nee at tlie 1 ite session, he being suspected ei and Mr. Wick elected in his place. a- r- rs- f : : : : - r FROM TIIK NATIONAL UKPl VLH ' S MRS. J.iCKSOX. As tne lamcmcd and much injured partner of our pse-ideut elect, has been the subject of cold blooded calumny, and manly defence ; and as she has now rone to her lon home, where the ti wicked cease from troubling, and the weary aie at rest," perhaps some account of ihe last r:ii!c. of her earthly pilgrimage, may not be uninteresting to a feeling community. After its publication, Mrs Jacks .n was car ly made acquainted with the libel up n her good name. The effect that such an attack had upon a lady of her sensitive '-h:rar.ter. one loo whose life had been devoted to deeds of charity Sc benev olcr.ee, sr. ay easily be con ceived. She supported heiself under it, however, until the txciteme-.t pr -educed by t'ac late contest was over. I'rom that mor.ient her energy subsided, her s pints drooped, and her health declined. She has been heard to speak but seldom iince Uaiing been diawn into a conversation by a friend, about a fortnight before her death, she remarked, that, although she had lived with Mr. Jackson nearly forty years, there had never an unkind woul p3sed between them; and the only subject o:i which they ever differed, or where ihctc was the slight est opposition, was his acceptance of appointments, when conferred upon him she being alwavs univiiling for him to cute npan pub lie life. Such was the woman whnm gcnl. Jacks.-n w as called upon to separate f: on at a moment of alt othcis toe sivii tivine;. Although the weather was unfaveurab'c, her friends assembled fro;n eve:y point,
