T-up iron chain‘ hath bound him,
Which Mercy -never broke;
The echoes sleep around him,
'Whicli Gladness never woke; .
No bright ray cheers his dungeon gloom
Meet prelude to the darker tomb! ~
‘His young bride knelt iuip‘loting'—-
They reck’d not of her prayer ;
His aged Sire was pouring
The plaints or wild despair: _
In vaiu——they dragg’d him to his cell,
Scarce might he pause to breatbe,“Farew.eil.

Yet calmly is be sleeping

On earth, his only bed ; ,

\Vhile armed guards are keeping
, Their vigil o’er his head ;_ H
And voices through the midnight gloom,
And hurrying steps,_proclaiin his doom.

A tyrant-’s-tvratli encliains him
To die the death ofslianie ;'
The only guiltthat-stains liiiii—
He hears a Christian name ;
That riatne—unhdnour’d—-—unforgiven——
So loath’d by man-—so loved of Heaven!

Now joyousmorn is breaking
-Bright o’er lh’-empurpled sky ;
The fetler’d captive waking,
, Remembers death is nigh :
Yet his firm air, and placid brow,
Nor signs of doubt, nor dread avow.

A qnenchless hope shall cheer him,

In Nature.’s weakest hour

"I-lis Lord is ever near him,
~ VVith arm of inatchless power:
And guilt may fear—or falsehood fly-‘-
The faithful ‘Christian dares to die.

_Oiie prayer for her, the dearest,
His own beloved bride,
In peri!"s hour the nearest,
, And firniest at his side:
Then on, without :1 fear or sigh,
On to the scenes ofagony.

But soon shall he awgiken,

On realms iiiorebriglit and fair ;

Mn. An.9.Ms.—-Tlie New-York Evening
Post of Thursday speaks of “the constant
quarrels, public and private, of Mr. Adams,
is itii all the foreign ministers at Washington.”
This is a specimen of the liardiliood of the
libcls which are adventured on the eve of an
election. Mr. A. has bad:no quarrel, public
or private, with any foreign minister. The
diplomatic corps have found him, indeed, te-
nacious ofthe rights, dignity, and prosperity
of his country, but have never hesitated to
bear testimony to his cornplaisant and atten-
tive demeanor. We recollecttliat, after the
story of an altercation, or quarrel, between
him and General Vives, the late Spanish am-
bassador in the United States, had been cir-
culated in the newspapers, we-asked the Gen-
cral whether any thing ofthe kind had occur-
red. I-lc answered in the negative, and re-
marked that he entertained the utmost re.-
spect for Mr. Adams’ private as well as public
character. 

A genuine letter from a much A teemed
gentleman at Washington, published in the
-Baltimore Patriot, contains the strongest‘evi-
dence of the habitual personal benevolence
ofthe Secretary of State. This -authentic an-
ecdote ofhis liberality is related ‘among others
and ought to be deemed a sufficient refutatioii_
of all the iiiiiendos of his enemies touching
his estimate of money.

“About two years ago, the Second Presby-
terian Church in this city (Washington) being
tlieu recently organised, was, by reason of
debt, greatly ernbarrassed,'so much so, that it
had well nigh passed under the hammer. At
the earnest request ofthe traste'es, the pastor

went on to the north soliciting aid. The frtiits
ofhis exertions amounted to about 3600.
This sum, (although thankfully received, and
really of great service,) by no means redeem-
ed the church froiii its difficulties ; still, inde-
pendently of debts due to two banks in this
city, the sum ofslfloo was due to Mr. Sand-
ford, the carpenter ; he had been very indulg-
ent, but now circumstances compelled him to
be urgent: a suit was threatened. The trus-
tees met, Mr. Adams being a pew-iiolder and
member of the board, was present. After
much _consultation ariioiigst the trustees, and
no door of hope was open, ‘Mr. Adams rose
and said, “gentlemen, ifitwill be ofaiiy ser-
vice, I will lend you 600 dollars.” The pro-
position was a generous one—particularly so’,
as it was difficult to say how, or when the
money could be repaid. The proposition was
politely declined, until further efforts should
be made to obtain the money in some other
way. All efforts failing, a note for $600 was
drawn, endorsed, and handed to Mr. Adams.
Being asked whether the names were suffi-
cient, Mr. Adams looking carelessly at the
note, replied, “ it is well enough to have this,
as an evidence of the fact, but” addedjlie
smiling, “ iI'iliis note were never paid,] shoutd
never think ufsucing the gentlemen”-—But,
continued lit‘, !‘vl~r.B. this is only 3600, how
will you pay Mr. Sandford the balance? I
am sure sir, I know not, was the reply. “I
asked the question,” resumed Mr. Adams,—-
“because 1 am willing to advance the whole
amount; I am sorry for Mr. Saiidford, and
think it a pity he should be kept out of his
money so long.” A new note was drawn,the
money waspaid ; Mr. Sandford was aiiiaz-
ingly pleased, and ever since that period we
liaveheard no more about the ‘ tribulations’
ofthe church.

Mn. CrtAwroP.~n.-—It is a reriiarkable trait
in the character of the caucus candidate for
the Presidency that he manages to conceal
his sentiments upon almost every prominent
point of national policy. Heis equally claim-
ed by the friends and toes of every-important
measure; and it would seem to be a (luty es.
pecially assigned to the editors ofthe Nation-
al Inlelligencer, to watch the current ofpub-

‘ lie opinion, and according as that may run in
favor of, or against, any particular nieasure,to
claim for Mr. Crawford the merit ofbeing its
friend or its opponent. Thus, in their paper
ofthe 6th, he is said tube the friend ofinter-

It is true,'lie is not called.

their warm or violent friend: the discreet Ed-
itors “ think the matter may be overdone.”

N ow,the editors of the National Intelligen-

-created after Mr.

cet‘._at'e sufficiently well acquainted with the
sentimentsof Mr. Crawford, to know, that he
is neither the zealous nor the moderate friend
of internal iinprov’e'ments. '"VVe do not say,
absolutely, that he is theirfoe; but we most
seriously believe, that he is quite as much
theirfoe as tlieirfricnd, and that he does not
care a fig whether the system of ititernal im-

-' proveni‘en't‘ be adopted ornot, provided he can

advance ’his‘own popularity. Ofthis, there
is the most convincing. proof, in the ‘fact, that,
1 in 1818, stir years ago, Mr. Crawford was sol-
emnly called upon, by the House of Repre-

, sentatives, to report on the subject of internal

improvements, and to designate such roads 8L
canals as the public ititerest seemed to require.
To this day he has stood mute. The call has
never been complied with,nor has any excuse
been offered for not coriiplying with it.

“ The resolution ofthe House indeed, placed

’ Mr’. Crawford in a dilemma : ifhe reported

in favor of making roads and canals, his pop-
ularity in Virginia would suffer-—a thing not
to be hazarded : if he reported against them,
he would expose himself to a similar loss in
the middle and western states-'-an«efi'ect to be
equally dreaded. -As he cared nothing for
the system, and every thing for liiuiself, he
determined to avoid all hazard byremaiiiing
silent; leaving to the Intelligencer the task of
holding him up as a moderate friend of the
system, and to the Enquirer tliatof praising
liitii for his enmity to it. All this the Editors
of the Intelligeiicer know as well as we do,
and yet tiiey_ have the assurance to tell the
people, that Mr. Crawford, though not “run
mod,” is nevertheless the moderate friend ofa
system internal -improvements. They may
rest assured that though they will fail to con-
vincetlie people ofthe truth ofthis assertion,
they are in a fair way to produce another con-
viction on the minds of the sober citizens of
this country, namely, that injoiuing-the ultra
faction, the Editors abandoned all regard to
principle and truth.

Again: in the National Intelligencer cf-the
5th inst. the Editors, ‘in reply to the Boston
Patriot, say that it was under the administra-
tion of Mr. Crawford, “as Head ofthe War‘
Department, that the erection of permanent
fortifications was coniuienced upon the pres-
ent system.” We tho’t that it was for corn-
mencing this very system, that the present
“ Head of the War -Department” had been
denounced, by the leaders ofthe ultra faction,
as csctravagant and prodigal; and that his
efforts to maintain the system have been most
violently opposed, year afteryear, by.the per-
sonal and political friends of Mr. Crawford.
There is something not only wicked, but
exceedingly mean, in this attempt, after the
system has succeeded, and the popular’ voice
is raised in its favor,to rob the individual who
was thus opposed and traduced for his efforts
to support it, ofthe honor due to him for its
success,iti order to transfer it to another. And
the attempt, too, is made by the Intelligencer,
in the very teeth ofnotorious facts. VVe de-
ny that Mr. Crawford is the author of the
present system of permanent fortifications, 8:.
we challenge the Editors to produce a single
record tojustify this assertion. lVe desire not
to withhold from Mr. Crawford any praise
that may be justly dneto him, and therefore,
admit that'while Secretary of War, he recom-
mended an appropriation for fortifications ;—-
but the recommendation was wholly uncon-
nected with any projected system. The pres-
ent Board ofEngineers for fortifications was
Crawford left the VVar De-
partniciit, and it was under the administration
of its present Head, that the board received
those iustructioiis which have resulted in the
admirable system of defence now projected.
Previous to Mr. Calhoun’s entering the
Department, there had not been made, for

~ purposes of defence, a single survey of the

coast. The Topographical Engineers were
either not employed at all, or were employed
in the‘ interior of the country to very little
purpose, and were not under the direction of
the Board. By his order, they were put un-
der ,tliatd_irection; by his order, the survey
was instituted which has given us so uiiiiute
and accurate a knowledge ofthe coast ; and,

finally, it was by his order that the Engineer

Office was created, and the Cliiefoftlie Corps
stationed at Washington. We appeal, for the
truth of this, to the Ofiicers ofthat Corps,and
we feel satisfied that there will be no division
ofsentinieut among them, as to the fact, that
both the Engineer and Topographical Corps
owe their excellent organization, activity and
usefulness, to the present Head of the \Var
Department. Yet, the Iritelligeiicer, regard-
ing neither truth norjiistice, has endeavored,
to strip the Secretary of what is, undeniably,
his due, in order to give the honor of having
originated the present system, to Mr. Crow--
tT;rd, who has no more claim to it than the
Editors ofthe Iiitelligencer themselves.

ALBERT GALLATIN.-—-Sou)‘ Grapes.—The
Democratic Press ofSaturday, acknowledg-
es that Mr. Gallatin “ declines the honour
of being a Candidate for the Office of
Vice President.” Sour grapes! The Demo-
cratic Press, on VVednesday last,-—no later-
s_aid—-“ VVe deny,in the most positivefmanner,
upon the best authority, that Mr. Gallatin has
determined to decline the V.Presidency;” and
again on Thursday, repeated the denial thus:
“ Vi’_iiat we have stated we know to be true
and as we have said, from the latest and most
authentic sources.” The Press of Saturday
observes——“ We cannot doubt but Mr. Craw-
ford was intimately and early acquainted
with the determination of his friend Mr. Gal-
latin (to decline.) There is soriiqtliing coni-
manding and manly in the determination of
a citizen to cast hiiiiselfupon the choice ofhis
fellow citizens without the usual auxiliary aid
ofa Vice President to take strength at the
polls.”-—Tliis must make every reader smile.
The “ auxvilirzry aid” (a charming pleonasm)
was, as every one knows, at length found to
be ofsoirietliing likea negative quality. It
was aid such as a iiiillstoiie proves when at-
tached to the neck ofa man thrown into deep
water. lfhir. Crawford was early acquaint-
ed with the determination of Mr. Gallatin, it
could not have been a secret to the Caucus
committees, and ifthey knew it, they ought
to have disclosed it at once. But the factis,
that they are convinced that they made a most
unfortunate choice in the name ofMr. G. and
have at length deemed the retraction ofit an
urgent measure of policy. , According to the
Democratic Press, the committees are in pos-
session of Mr. Crawford’s acceptance of the
Caucus nomination. He is therefore insep-
arably connected with the caucus cause. It
JWk.'JlIl, perhaps, have been wise to withdraw

that noniiiiation as well as iii__é_i,is.mis cffilr.‘
Gallatin, and try to replace .b"I.m "P0" l“5‘°“‘

‘The Farmer’s Boy, and the “ Prince of the

_ Blood.” .

Fxmutzns AND Mectixmcs!

You are now called on to choose who you
will have to rule over you ; will you have one
ofyour own class, who like most ofyou, is in-
debted to his own exertions for all he posses-
ses; for his education, his propertv, his repu-
tation, and his hard earned fame: one, who,
like you, has known what it is to struggle with
the rtffliculties ofli/‘c—and having goue.tliro"
the sauie scenes,kiiows the feelings,tlie wants,
and the rights ofthe most humble ofyour own
class. Ifyou would wish to have such a man
for your Chief Magistrate, you will give your
support to men who will vote for WILLIAM
H. CRAWFORD, the Far-mcr’s Boy, and the
Sctiool-Jllasler.

But if you would wish to have a “Prince
ofthe Blood” rule over you; a man who was
educated in foreign semiiiaries, brought up in
foreign courts, and who, since Secretary of
State, has written a long and elaborate letter
on court etiquette, and attempted to introduce
thefooleries and corrupt manners of foreign
courts; who is a’ stranger to your condition in
life, to your feelings, and your rights ; who is
an aristocrat in "his principles; arrogant and
overbearing in his feelings and his uianners ;
who considers you as Plebians, and himself of
Noble Blood—if you wish for such a man to
be your ruler, give your vote to those who are
pledged to J. fldaiits, the Prince of the
Blood—and the Prince of Apostates.

Choose this day whom you will serve; but
as for me and my house, we shall support the
Man ofthe People—the FA~RMER’S SON.

Trzcniistzii, Tm: INDIAN WARRIOR.

“ Tecumesli was the most extraordinary
Indian that has ever appeared in history.-—
He was by birth a Shauanese, and would have
been a great man in any age or nation. In-
dependent ofthe most consummate courage
and skill as a warrior, and all the characteris-
tic acuteness of liis=race, he was endowed by
nature with the attributes of mind ‘necessary
for great political.,_..combination. His acute
understanding, very" early in life, informed
him that his countrymen had lost their impor-
tance; that they were gradually yielding to
the whites, who were acquiring an imposing
infliience over them. instigated by these
considerations, and, perhaps, by his natural
ferocity and attachment to war, he became a
decided enemy to the whites, and imbibed an
invincible determination (be surrendered it
only with his life) to regain for his country
the proud independence he supposed she had
lost. For-a number ofyearslie was foremost
in every act of hostility committed against
those be conceived the opprcssors ofhis coun-
trymen, and was equally remarkable for iii-
trepidity as skill, in many combats that took
place under his banner. Aware at length of
the extent, number‘ and power ofthe United
States, he became fully convinced of the fu-
tility ofaiiy single nationofred men attempt-
ing to cope with them. He formed, there-
fore, the grand scheme of uniting all the
tribes east ofthe Mississippi itito hostility a-
gainst the United States. This was a field
worthy his great and enterprising geiiius.—
He commenced in tlieyear 1809; and in the
execution of his project be displayed an tine-
qualled adroitness, eloquence and courage.——
He insinuated himself into every tribe from
Mishiliniackinack to Georgia, and was inva-
riably successful iii his attempts to bring them
over to his views. Heiplayed upon all their
feelings but principally upon their supersti-
tion, arid sometimes assumed the character of
a prophet, and carried with him a red stick,
to which be attached certain mystical prop-
erties, and the acceptance of which was con-
sidered as the joining ofhis party_ ; hence the
name ofRed Sticks applied to all Indians hos-
tile to the United States. Unfortunately for
Tecumseh, but happily for the United States,
was it, that before his plan had becouie matu-
red, before his arrangements for general lins-
tility were perfected, before in fact he had
brought into the field any of his forces, his
brotlier made a premature attack upon the
forces of the United States under the coin-
mand ofGeneral Harrison, in the summer of
1811, at Tippecanoe, in which he suffered a_
signal defeat.

“ This disaster marred the prospects of the
gallant Tecumseh ; his own soul was uiisliak-
en ; but itvdamped the ardor ofhis associates;
and although many continued" in their war-
like attitude, nor shrunk from a contest that
had commenced with defeat, all the efforts of_
Tecumseh were unavailiug to supply the
links thus broke in his-chain of operations.—
The war against England, declared soon af-
ter this event by the United States, opened
new views to the talents of Tecumseh. His
merits were duly appreciated by .tlie British
government, and they made him a Brigadier
General in their service. At the head of his
formidable warriors he more than once ttiriied
the scale of victory against the Americans,
and laid down his life for the cause he had
espoused.”

Tecumseh was killed by Col. Johnson, in
lillfl, during the late war with Great Britain.
The story is thus related in Trumbull’s His-
tory of the Indian wars.

“ It was at the margin ofthe wood that Te-
cumseh stationed himself, armed with a spear,
tomaliawk, btc. endeavouring to rally and per-
suade his men to return to the attack. At
this point a considerable body of Indians had
collected ; yet regardless ofdanger, the heroic
Johnson rushed into the midst of them; in-
deed so thick were they at this moment that
they could easily have reached him with their
arrows. He rode a white horse, and was
pointed out by Tecumseh as an officer of rank.
His horse was shot under him, and his clothes,
saddle and person pierced with bullets. At
the riioment his horse fell,Tecnmesh rushed
towards him with an uplifted tomahawlt, to
give the fatal blow ; but in this perilous pre-
dicaiivient his presence of mind did not forsake
him.‘ He drew a pistol from his holster and‘
laid this distinguished warrior dead at his feet.
He could do no more. The many wounds
that he had received and the loss of blood de-
prived him ofstreugth to stand. He received
five shots, three in the right thigh, and two in

zginal footing. as the choice —of Georgia and al

are so big that they can destroy “a gosling of

Sagacity of Jllonlceys‘.-—A Valenciennes
Journal gives the following article.—Six iner-
chants crossing the coast of Guinea, were at-
tacked by upwards of one hundred negroes.
Being at a lnssliow to defend themselves a-
gaiust such fearful odds, one ofthe merchants
proposed arming the prisoners; accordingly
poignards were distributed among them, and
by imitating their inasrers, these grotesque
auxiliaries sulcceeded in putting their aggres-
sors to flight .

Mr. Muggins, they are not birds of passage.’

Lately a slave injone of the W. I. Islands,
who had been married to another slave at the

The. clergyman asked what was the matter
with her. “Why massa she no good. The
book say she obey mc.—She no wash my
clothes: . She no_do what I want her to do.”
The minister replied, “ But the bgok said you
were to take her better for worse. “Y es mas-
sa, she all worse and no better. She bad too
much and no good at all.” '
