Andrew Jackson has been the most abused,

and his ciiaracter ihe most wilfully misre presented The friends of the other candid

ate, J Q Adams, to aid and strengthen the

Cause o! their favorite, tepresent him as an o -

Yeroearing, tyrannical ana inhuman man as

one entirely destitute of feeling for hi fellow men The following authentic anecdote will

effectually contradict such calumnies, and

convince his fellow citizens that he has not

only a heart to feel. huf a hand ever ready to

assi9t and relieve the fil cted. A man by the name of Stropes, now resi ding in the neighborhood of Bloomington, In

diana, served (during the Seminole war) as a

soldier in the United States s army, under the

command of major general J ckson. At the

afack on the Horse shoe, where the Indiana

had strongly entrenched themselves when in

the act of mounting a breastwoi k, a i ifl . bal

penetrated the breast of Mr. Stropes, and he fell Alter the engagement was over, the

surgeons began to examine and dress the

Wounds of the fallen. Mr. Stiopes in his

turn claimed their aid : his wound was slight ly examined by them, and they, either deem

ing him incurable or not understanding his

case, turned hi n upon his back by wliied

he bled internally, and soon would have been numbered with the dead, if he had not turn cd himself upon his breast, by which the blood flowed from the wound. At this crit

ical juncture, general Jackson, who made it I felt bv all, it he;n;n

his duty to see thai those who fought brave irunrst, of all. to en

ly and shed their blood freely lot the good ot" j condition of the farmertheir country, were properly attended to, j fiVctcd wphoui then : .; came where he was, and seeing that his j ficnlties under which tha ag Wounds were not dressed, inquired of the ! evt nt pros ni labors, nmv Ik t surgeons why he was nut attended to. They jibe, account of invent a'c h K

replied that it would be labor lost, ncr had j i c. r -lo trt, nor v. l ; i-

they any bandages. Shocked at such inhumanity, he severity reprimanded them, di reetcd that his own sheets should be us d lor bandages, and commanded the surgeotn to dress the man's wounds in his presence He thi:n had the poor sufferer Carefully removed to tha hospital, pi ovided nurses, soups and every tht'ig necessary to re establish hi": he dh ; and at the expiration of four months he Was endded, by the kindness and attention o' .e ae-3! Jackson, (whom he considers un di G ul, as the preserver of his life) to re tutu ' ) tiie bosom of his family and to the soci tv of his friend.
