such hints have been thrown out, ricseeing
frankly declare his sentiments on the subject,
,q1,._ _5l'qy.__The friends of this statesman that the public may be able to frame an intel-
will vn'§‘ soon learn the fate of their favorite.
It is now certain that there will be three,i.‘ no
four candidates in the field at the next election
and nobody is silly enough to believe that any
one of these will have a majority over all the
others; ofeourse, the election will devblve
upon Congress. The politicalicharacter of
the representation ofltl states is already as-
Niiie states will give their votes
for Jackson, viz : Maine,"Newllampsliire, N.
York, Pennsylvania,’ North Carolina, Geor-
gia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Tennessee:
the other nine are for Clay, viz: Vermont,
Massachusetts, Rhodc Island, Connecticut,
New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Ohio and
Louisiana: two are doubtful--Virginia and
South Carolina. In the four rerriairiing states,
certained.
Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, and Mississippi,
the elections which determine the character
oflliose states are yet to be held, and com-
mence, we believe, on Monday next. Mr.
Clay rriust have all of these, or he cannot be
elected. That he will get them all is hardly
to be hoped for, much less expected. It is
useless, ll0l'-/CS’Cl', to speculate upon it, seeing
that we shall so soon know the reality. For
a. few weeks all eyes will be turned westward
with an anxiety scarcely paralleled. \Vlieir,
as we anticipate, the friends of Mr. Clay find
they have over-rated their strength, will they
not withdraw their favorite candidate. and u-
riilc upon some one, who, not less “ honest,
capable, or faithful to the constitution," would
be equally worthy of the suifrages of those
who think that a reform ofexisting abuses is
" inscribed on the list ofexecutivr: duties” in
characters no longer to be misunderstood 7
The first No. ofa new paper, called “ Na-

The name is sufficiently indicative ofthe po-
liticalcharaclcr of the paper. The publish-

their /uizurd-ous undertaking.
./I strange V-isitant.—’I‘lic curiosity of our
neighbors was sonicwliat cxcitcd on Tuesday
last by the rppearancc in our harbor of an Iti-
diari canoe, navigated by a ‘ son of the forest,‘
apparently about 45 years of age, aided b_v
his sqtiaw, who appeared some 1‘."or 15 years
younger, and accompanied by a couple of
young and healthy looking 1)apoo5cs_ The
canoe was of bark, and so light as to be easily
carried by the Indian under his arm for anv
distance. This venturesoiric navigator hailed
from Kennebec, in the state of Mcizic, and
with the exception ofQ5 miles which he trav-
elled overland from the Kcnnebcc river to the
Connecticut, with his canoe under his arm,
the whole voyage was performed in that little
bark. After staying long enough to satisfy his
own curiosity, as well as that of others, he
took a clearance for a further voyage all
along shore.
Sudden Deal/i..—On Monday last, a man na-
med John Olmstead, a native of this town, we
bclcive, dropped suddenly down, while at work
in a coriilield in New Canaan, and expired
instantly. We suppose he was overcome by
the heat.
' Jllr. Cal/toun.—'l he following is an extract
ofa letter from X-Vasliington to a gentleman
irt N. York. VVe have not seeti the article
to wliicli'it'lias reference, but infer from its
language, that somebody in this land of civil
and RELIGIOUS liberty has seen fit to
attempt to nullify Mr. Calhoun for being a
Presbyterian. It is good cause, doubtless,for
his disfranchiscment, and Mr. Calhoun must
change his religion, or resign his pretensions.
“ I think. with you, that the attempt to
pcrsecute_Mr. Calhoun in the quarter you
speak of, is very unjust, if not cruel. , I find
on inquiry (though not of the least importance
to me iv hat religion a man professes) that it is
true, he is a regular member of the Presbyte-
rian church, and so was his father before him;
and that it is true. the father and son were
both iii the habit ofobserying the usual rites
and forms of that persuasion—and the latter
is really-in regular attendant on the meetings.
Butl hope the liberality of the people of this
land offreedom will never be influenced a-
gainst a fellow citizen for exercising merely
the common right of religious choice."
Mn. CALHOUN AND NUI.X.IFICATl0N —-One
ofthe toasts given at the dinner ofthe Union
Party in Charleston on the 4th of July, was
the following :
The Vice President 3/'t]re United States-
Ilis political intimates *-‘djve ,declared their
entimgnls of N-u1isiic.is'iiii’i"’—i—wiii he slim/c
ro_rn_ open exposition of his own ?
It/i very evident from this toast, as well
as from various hints in the addresses on the
same occasion, that the Union Party in South
Carolina, are not in favor ofMr. Calhoun for
the next President of the United States, and
' that they base their opposition upon the ground
of his suspected friendship for the principles
-of Nullificatioti. We are not yet satisfied
that there is any good foundation for such
-suspicions; btit ifsucli shall prove to be the
fact, we declare to him and to all men, that he
.not: only shall not have our support (htimble
‘though it may be) for the office mentioned,
butour cordi_al opposition. VVhen ‘we_ see a
tliorongh-going,,Ni1lli_fier»_in the chair ol"thc
Chief Magistracyiofthe nation, we shall be
prcparedtq see our beautiful. fabric, reared at
such an -expense of. blOO(I1{1I'l(l treasure, crum-
ble into ruin.‘ Other. things being equal, we
should be rather in favor of a Southerti man
for the next President, and should have no ob-
jection to his being a Carolinian. But we
will never give our votes for an acknowled-
ged _Nulltfier, whosoever he may be, or to
whatever section of the country he may be-
long.
It has been our Opinion, and stillis, that no
such charge can be truly alleged against Mr.
igent. opinion ofhis fitness for the station to
, which he aspires. For, whatever other qual-
ifications a man may possess, if he is not a
a friend to the Union, and to those principles
by which alone it can be preserved, we hold
that he is better fitted to condtict the coun-
sels of the nation's bitterest enemies, than of
the nation itself. .
We were glad to see the toast above quoted.
because we presumed it would avail‘ to call
forth from Mr. Calhoun the long desired ex-
position ofhis political sentiments. It appears
that in this ouratiticrpations were correct.-—
Tlie Pendleton (S. C.) Messenger, published
near Mr. Calhoun's residence, says, “ We
are gratified to learn from a quarter entitled
to credit, that the Vice-President, yielding
to what appears to he the wish of the public.
and in candor due to his own character, will
place his sentiments before thepublic without
reserve, in reference to the subject (nnllifiea-
tion)wli. has caused these remarks." Ifhe (le-
clares himselfa Nullifier in the usual sense of
that term, he may safely calculate on obtain-
ing not a .s-ingle electoral vote out of South
Carolina ; and even there his chances will be,
to say the least, doubtful. But if, on the cori-
lrary, he gives such a statement of his views
shall be satisfactory to the nation, he will be
able to maintain a respectable competition
with Clay. Jacltson, and whosoever else may
be in the field. VVe shall await the promised
exposition with no ordinary interest.-J. Com.
The following toast was given by the Vice
Pi'esidento_f the United States, at a public din-
ner on the 4th ofJuly, in his own District of
Pendleton, S. C.
By the Hon. John C. Cal/roun.—“ The
State and General Governments ——eacli ini-
perfect when viewed as separate and distinct
governments, but taken as a whole, forming
one system, with each checking and coritrol-
ing the other, unsurpassed by any work of
man, in wisdom and subliinity.”
At the Administration Celebration of the
4th ofJuly at Washington, Amos Kendall
gave the following :-—“ The Po/e.r,—The
world is with them—may Heaven not forsake
them." The National Gazette remarks, that
if Heaven had lent the Poles no more aid than
the world has given, they would not have
much occasion for thanksgiving.
.N‘ullijZcalz'on.——'l‘lie address of Gen. Hayne
at Cliar-lesion, on the 4th, is spoken of by his
partisans in terms of high commendation.-—
Says the charleslon Mercury of the 6th-“We

occasion, {:1 more powerful burst of el-
oquence, or deeper§or livelier enthusiasm per-
vading the bosom Of 311 enlightened people.

and with a feeling corresponding to his own,

C.-tiitxirr DIFF1CUl'.TI1~1S, No. 41.---Tlie
VVasliington Telegraph, of Monday, observes
—"‘ An issue is made up, which must call
forth from Messrs. Ingham, Branch, and Bar-
rieii, a statement relative to the agency ta.-
ken by Col, Johnson in the matter (Mrs. Ea-
ton_’s case.")
The same paper says——“ The Globe asserts
that our statement relative tothe call made by
Colonel Johnson, in the name ofthe President
on Messrs Iiiglnin, Branch, and Berrien, to
be ‘ foul slander upon5'Col. Johnson.’ Is the
Globe authorized to make this assertion ? If
that paper will publish a denial authorized by
Col. Johnson, we will give our proof. When
that goes before the public, there can be but
one opinion among those who prefer truth to
party.”
The Globe of yesterday, furnishes the fol-
lowing denial:
“ We take the‘ liberty ofquoting from the
letter of Col. Johnson, which we have, his
express declaration that the President did not
make the exaction of the members ofhis cab-
inet charged by’ the Telegraph. The Colo-
nel says : ‘ He, (General Jackson) ‘never an-
thorized me to require social intercourse, &c.
He always disclairned it. I told the parties
so.’ These are the words of the Colonel to
the word, point, and letter. If this does not
satisfy, we must reter the parties making the
charge, to the witness called by them."
Jlfore Correspondence. ——Tho Washington
papers received by the last mail contains along
correspondence between Mr. Berrien, late At-
torney General, aud the editor of the Globe,
upon matters connected with the late explos-
ion. Itis full of spice, and will appear in our
next paper.
It is said, that Mr. Randolph, finding his
health too much impaired to venture to Rus-
sia, has resigned his commission as Minister
to the Court of St. Petersburgli, and that his
resignation has been accepted by our Govern-
ment. It is also said, that before his resigna-
tion was accepted, Mr. R. believing that the
elections in Virginia would take place in June
and that be was therefore ineligible, was part-
ly induced by this circumstance to request his
friend to announce to the District his wish to
decline a poll for Congress. The annuncia-
tion is said to have been made. Mr. R. is be-
lieved to have set sail from England before
this time.”-—Richmond Enquirer.-
Governor Cass received a thorough classical
and scientific education at Exeter Academy,
where he was cotemporary with Daniel Web-
ster, Joseph S. Buckminstqr, and Leverett
Saltonstall, under the tuition of Benj. Abbott
LL.D., who to this day continues to be the
Principal of that literary institution.
President Jackson declined dining on the
4th of J uly, with a volunteer company in Nor-
folk which invited him, bcsause be had long
since, resolved “ not to partake a public din-
ner during his continuance in office."

sident. Among other remarks in support
of that assumptioii,'a note addressed by
the President to me is given as evidence
ofit. I think it proper, under these cir-
cumstances, to communicate through your
once between the Presidentand myself,on
which I deem it unnecessary to make any
other coinnient than to remark, that in all
the various notes received h_y me froiu the
President nntecedentto that time, he hail
uniformly addressed rneas “ the Secretary
oftlie 'I‘reasury.” The change could not
therefore, fail to attract my notice, and the
public will judge, from the President's
note ofthe Gilt iust., wlietlier it does not
appear more probable, that he intended to
designate me as standing in a.riew._relatiori
to the government, than that my: note _ to
him of the 7th inst. proceeded front a dis-
position to look “ out fot“otIence.”
A cornespondence between Mr. Barry
and rnyselfis referred to in the Globe for
the same purpose. I will alsofurnish you
copies oflliat, from which the public will
be able to judge of its character.

The President with his respects to Mr.
Inghiim, acting Secretary of the Treasury,
and informs him that he has been notified
by the Mayor of the city of Washington,
that the Canal Commissioners are to have
a meeting to-day, at which they desire the
United States to be represented. The
President requests to be informed whether
it will be convenient for Mr. Ingham to at-
tend the proposed meeting, and if incon--
venient, whether it would not be advisable
to autlioriz-3 some person to attend as the
representative of the U. States.

liaiii, Acting Secretary ofihe Treasury.”
The I’rcslde7zt of the U. Stalls .-
Sir——On my return this evening from
an excursion to Annapolis, I found on my
table a note from you on business, in which
I am designated as the “Acting Secretary
of the Treasury.” As I have received no
“ acting appointment,” this suggests a
form and tenure of office, as I apprehend,
wholly unknown to the laws, and having
been adopted for the first tiuie on this oc-
casion, lI.llI(llC‘dI€.'S a l}9.\¥ ofliciail relation-,
sent to make myself responsible for," by
continuing to perform the duties, of the

ter. . .
I have the honor to be, very respectful-

S. D. INGHAM.
lVershinglon, June 7th, 1831.
The President with his respects to Mr.
Ingliam, acknowledges the receipt of his
note ufthe 7th inst. which he has this mo-
mentrcccived. Its contents he has read
any way intended the slightest indignity,
or any thing that would wear such an ap-
peararicc to any gentlemen, who has been
connected with him in the government.-—
It ought not nor cannot be conceived that
a note hastily written, addressed “ acting,”
when it should have been Secretary oftlre
Treasury, should be considered an indigni-
ty offered, or could diminish or alter the
authority under which he was transacting
the duties of the department. "“ The
President in justice to himself can only
add that it was not intended to alter them.

Y.‘ co-iii. Adv. states that a little before one
o'clock, on the morning oftl-ie 18th, the ex-
tensive Floor Cloth 'iVlariufactory in Ebridge
it‘. near Rivington, was discovered to be on
fire, and in a few mintites the whole was in
one sheet of flame, which illuminated the
whole city. The factory was of wood, and
was surrounded by frame buildings, all of wli.
were soon on fire,aiid so rapid was its progress
that before the inhabitants on the opposite side
ol'E|dridge-street could collect their children,
the houses were on fire. and they were obli-
ged to fly from the premises without any clo-
thing. Not so fortunate were some of those
who resided next the factory : and to the loss
of property, we have now to add that of three
lives, viz: Mrs. Murray, her daugliter, l\'lrs.
Barclay, and Mrs. Barclay’s son William, an
interesting youth of 15 years of age. A 4th
person was badly burnt. Three young chil-
dren, 3. 6 and 8 years ofage, are by this prov-
idence left without an earthly protector. ‘It
appears that the youth had got out his twoltt-
tle brothers and sister, and placing them in a
vacant lot, returned for his niolher and grand-
mother. He met his mother on the lower floor,
near the door,who recollecting that her rnotli-
er, Mrs. Murray, was still behind, she return-
ed with the interition of removing her. The
son followed, and all perished in the flames.
