On the 7th of July, agreeable to the previous notice, the friends of thc administration held their state convention at the state-house, for the purpose of nominating state officers, tec. which was numerously attended by gentlemen from all parts of the state. The meeting organized by choosing the Hon. Ezra Mcech, of Shclburne, chairman, and E. Ranson, E q. of Towasend, and general C. C. Wallar, secretaries. Upwards of three hundred delegates took their seats. After a recess, the convention was called to order by the chairman, and general Cushman, form the committee to take into consideration the measures of the administration of the general govcrnment, reported the following resolulions, which were unanimously adopted Dy the Convention: Resolved, That the measures of the present administration are entitled to our cordial approbation. Resolved, That, in the opinion of this Convention, it is alike the duty and in terest of the people ot this State to yield a zealous and vigorous support to the measures and policy of the National administration. Resolved, That we highly approve of

the course adopted by our Republican democracy of the Union. Let them ask friends of the states of Pennsylvania, what advantage there is to be derived New-York, and Ncw-Hampshirc, in from an opposition to the general govpresenting ANDREW JACKSON as ernment. If no satisfactory answers

Waller, in behalf of the committec appointed to prepare and report an address to the freemen, presented the following for the consideration of the Convention, which was rcid and adoptExtract from the Address. "What then is there to induce Ver mont to oDDose his administration? Is it required because his principles are anti-republican? No. Because the meas ures he proposes are injurious to the in terests of this state? No. Is it because our opposition will increase our jnflu ence on important national subjects? No. Should we oppose him because a vast majority of the republicans in the United States are m his favor? No. "What reason then can be assigned for keeping up an opposition, not merely to vrcu. uu.vu g.cai pjuuea. party to which we profess to belong? Uiat those men who now hold the power in Vermont, believe that, if a change

But there are some considerations vhich make it extremely important for every iciiuuiimi, ,ciy icui menu iu the liberties and rights which we now . enioy. to examine ana see ii tnev are warranted in keeping up the present di vision among republicans." If we consider the effect of opposing the administration, upon principles ot policy, nothing can be more clear than that such a course will be highly preju dicial to our interests. 1 he influence of a small state is necessarily limited; but if you place her in opposition to the general government and the great body of the American people, the influence she should have, is much diminished if not wholly destroyed. This consideration alone should be sufficient to induce the people of Vermont to support the aaminisirauon, umess i general policy is objectionable Is it then a concern of no moment is it a small matter, fellow citizens, to find republican Vermont, at a period like this, leagued with federal Massachusetts and the Hartford Convention men in oth cr 3iaicaiiiuypu:muu iu nus i c jjuuuuau nuujiuisuuuuii -aw duiiiiiiisii aiiuu nuitii is following in the shining and prosper ous course of our most virtuous, enlightened,and venerated sages, and beloved benefactors? Is it a small matter to find our state authorities in an attitude of hostility to -i i j . mc uauuuai uuuuiusirauon ana our senators and "Representatives in Concrcss co operating side by side with a class cf politicians who are lor increasing the powers ol tne general government bv unauthorized and undefined construetiens, at the expense of the rights of the states, ana at tne risK 01 tne absolution cl thc Union a construction that ner mits them to appropriate the moneys of the people of Vermont to the construetion of a road in Kentucky, and that, too, in disregard of the admonitions of our earliest patriots and ssges. ,The friends and supporters of Gen. Jackscn,in this state feel new zeal in the cause of the people, arising from the deserved popularity cf his administration in every part of thc Union. Their warmest nopes nave uccn more than realiced, and they have the proud satisfaction of witnessing the fulfilment of ihsircmst saniiH predictions. Inthe

coming election much depends on the activity and energy of our friends. They should remember that our opposers are composed of the aristocracy of the state; men who havo leisure to form combinations, and concert plans for our overthrow. We must oppose all this array of influence by the hard handed farmers and mechanics, who having nothing to buy or sell in political market, who clung to Gen. Jackson during the last contest, not because their were many of the pretended lgreat and noble that favored his election, but, because they felt convinced that he was an honest man, and an able statesman -an aident patriot, who leved his country for his country's sake, and who had fought and bled for her, while some of his warmest opposers were praying for his defeat.

UV nrctnf f r ihf frrrmrn rf 7r r mont a ticket composed of men long and advantageously known. We believe, if elected, they will promote the best interests of the people, and elevate the character of the state. The watch word of our friends should be "eternal vigilance." New Hampshire, Maine and Rhode Island; point to us the path, and lead the way. Shall Vermont be the last to do justice to the benrfoctor of his country? Shall she now follow humbly in the train of the Harllord Convention spates, and sully the glory she acquired during the late war. by an abandonment of her noliticil nrineinles- or shall she. from a sacred regard to the Constitution, and an attachment to her own interest, yield her support to an administration which aims to protect the one, and ad vance the other? Let the freemen of Vermont seriously consider the political position of the state. Let them ask by what means she has been broup-ht into the train of Mas sachusetts and Connecticut, against t la can be given to these questions, let thetn KO to the polls in despite of the aristocracy and fearlessly cast their votes for such men as will cc-operate with the general government and cordially sustain its measures, and thus protect our Constitution from vioktion3 and our interests from sacrifice.

tional Intelligencer, the leading Clay pa per in the Union, shows conclusively, the credit which is due to the acts and sayings of many of the coalition presses. In speaking of the pretended letter of Jefferson in relation to Mr. Clay, it holds the following candid language: "Much of the attention cf editors of all parties has been recently occupied with an enquiry into the authenticity of a letter, published in the Literary Sub altern, of Rhode Islclar.d. purporting to have been written by Mr. Jefferson during his life-time, in which Mr. Clay is spoken of as "one of the most talented and brilliant statesmen that the countryhas ever yet produced." From the evidence before us, we incline to think that this letter is a forgery, and that the editor of the Subaltern has been imposed upon a contemptible hoax. Wed knovvf al "as Mur' Jcrso s of do not opin ion of Mr. Clay: but the positive declations of others on that head induce us to suppose that he would not have spoken of him in terms so exalted." jfifiointmerit by the President. No ah H Swayne, oi Ohio, to be Attorney of the United States for the district of Ohio, vice Samuel Herrick, resigned. On Monday last, the State officers, pursuant to previous notice, proceeded to open the proposals for the Public Piinting; and on opening them, it appeared that Messrs Douglass .Sc Ma guiri were appointed to print the Laws, A F. MoniiibON to pri' ?he Journals of the Sci.aie, and Geoiige Smith to print the Journals ot the House of Representatives. By this division of the work, the people of this State will be enabled to receive the Laws and Journals at a much earlier perior than heretofore. Farmer. FIRE Wc sincerely regret to say that on Thursday night last, the extensive Distillery, built by Messrs. John and Daniel Jenckes, of this county, at a great expense, was entirely consumed by fire, together with the ox-mill and corn cribs attached thereto. This is not only a very serious loss to the owner, but to those employed in keeping it in operation, and the public also. It is to be hoped, however, that professions of sympathy, for thc immediate tuflcrets will be sustained by positive prcofs worthy j a generous community, which on such occasions, go far to sooth the feeling, and blunt the point of misfortune. Terre Haute Register. About S 1 SCO worth of Georgia Gold has been stamped by our ingenious townsman, 1 empleton Reid, with hand some dies, shewing the actual value oi each piece of metal, in parcels of g2 50, g5 and 10. The pieces of ten doilais have on one side this inscription, " Geor gia Gold 1830" and cn the other, 7V Dollars Templeton Reid, Assayer " Vhe die of the five dollar pieces is not inferior in execution to the stump on the coin issued horn the National Mint Mr Rtid imforms us that the gold thus stamped by him, will be taken at the Mint and at most of the Banks for the value it purports on its face to bear 1 his will give it a pretty general cur rency and make it answer the purpose of money. Mr R intends making an cs tabiishment in the gold region for the purpose of assaying and making the gold as it may be found, which will be a great convenience anu saving to the miners who have heretofore been obliged to part with the precious metal in its crude state at a loss of from five to fifteen per cent. The gold found in Carroll is of a deeper hue, and approaches nearer to the copper color, than that of Harbersham, but the two kinds, though essentially different in appearance, are said to bc equally pure and tine. The one would perhaps better answer the purpose of the jeweller but for coin there is not supposed to be any difference in value. Sourchern Recorder. BALTIMORE, JULY 23. THE RAILROAD. We are informed that the third division of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road, extending from thc forks of Patapsco to the Par Spring Ridge, yesterday let out upon contract, and that the bridging, masonry excavation and em barkmentupon this division will not exceed a cost of 70C0 dollars per mile. Gazette, Extract of a letter from an American, now travelling in Europe, to his friend in the city, politely communicated to the Eiitor of the Baltimore Gazette for publication, dated Paris, 29th June, 1830. "Americans must not expect to derive much information from this country in relation to agriculture, the mechanic arts or Internal Improvements a great portion of the labor here being perlormed by woman. I githered nothing from an examination of their Rail Roads now under construction worthy of our imitation. The rails arc of maleablc iron and badly joined together, moreover their locomotive engines arc upon the old plans, and ure so heavy as to make sicl havoc upen the rrad; indeed I should not be astoriahid if the Rail Road system snouid be so mn.L injure J by theic mi - perfect attempts as ta Jail into disrepute in this countt : I hey arc howe er, con-ktructin-s iiiV Uu-vi Irom Lyon to St.

In some districts the elections have been suspended in consequence of its being ascertained that almost every elector is a liberal. ' When at the south I had many con versations with thc pocplc, who generally cn finding I was an American, did not hesitate to speak with great freedom. I was told that thc nation was dctti mined to have a change, which they hoped to effect without a revolution, but that if this could not be dene, thc people wcie prepared to effect it by that iiieans. Where I was supposed to be an English man, the people were very shy and altogether indisposed to make themsehes familiar. They have an utter abhor rence of that nation, but are nevertheless manifestly in great fear of thcrn. MINISTERS IN COLOMBIA. Bogota dates to the 26:h June, speak of a conspiracy to assassinate a number of persons, among whom are named, the American and British Ministers. Letters have been received from Major Moore to his friends in Washington; dated as late as the 28th June, which makes no mention of this affair. There cannot, therefore, be any truth in the statement. We mention this fact to quiet any ap prehensions which may be entertained by Maj. Moor's family and friends. Thc statements which have been made in sundry papers relative to the affairs of the American Minister, and his conduct at Bogota, are either entire fabrications, or gross perversions.
