From TIE Mczu 1ork Euening' Post.

IT seems to have been part of col. Burr's
policy, now universally acknowledged, to
mention or insinuate that persons, who were
supposed to have influence, were concerned
in his plans, for the purpose of impressing
his hearers with an high idea of his resour-
ces. With this view,i appesss that he spoke
IN Kentucky of drawing upon me for large
Sums of money. My credit there he knew
stood high, and that oothing would impress
the public with better idea of his fiscal o.
Perations, than'a persuasion that was his
banker. This report reached the cars Of
MIR. Graham, who was employed to collect
oil the information on this subject, and
transmit it to the executive, and he faithful
" detailed it, with the suspicious it excited.

THOUGH Injuries are said to encou.
rage manufactures, yet regard ought 70 be
had to the ratios of their expense, and their
general use. Such as are purchased at high
price, and consequently, only by the ricn,
should be taxed heavily.
As they subslract considerable sum from
the stock of national wealth so far they
are detrimental to a country since the A :
mount thus thrown away in their ezpendi-
ture, might otherwise be used more profita~
bly, in things OF general use, of more perma-
nent duration, and of wider circulation.
This would prevent, or at least diminish
the expenditure OF others in the like fJpps-
rics md vanitieS and this policy of neces-
sity would have with many, all the effects
of a well directed economy
This would tend to assimilate the differ

nous wealth, or excessive penury into the

Ma. JACKSON.

1T has become matter of speculation for
the public what can be tine object of the
mission Of Mr.. Francis James Jackson
Does he come, like a comet. bringing in his
train war and Pestilence or is he the gen
tie minister ofpeace We say nothing of
good nil, because there is 10 good WILL in
the hearts of the present English ministers
towards the U. States. If it be only the bu-
siness of this new envoy to cram down our
throats the three propositions IN abe in c an.
ning's celebrated "despatch" to Mr.. Frs.
kline, that is to say,-1st. To raise the non.
intercourse with respect to Great Britain
and, as connected herewith, 9 |. To rein.
.cuish the cirrying-trade - 81. To per-.
mt the British navy to execute the laws of
the United States: IF such be the points
in the instructions of Mr.. Jackson, the said
Mr.. Jackson might as wei have gone any.
where else with a project of Cancellation.
1t is true, the United States would.
doubtless, be willing enough to rescind the
men, intercoarse with respect to Great Bril-.
tain if Great Britain would adhere to the
terms OF the Arrangement made by England
through Mr. Erskine but that America
should surrender the very source OF her
prosperity; source as legitimate as it is
lucrative that she should transfer to her
ancient tyrant the executive power of her
c untry that can believe. the diplomatic
character of Mr.. Jackson aaords much
room to believe that he brings some arro-
g'Ht demand. The Norfolk Ledger has at.
tempted to smooth the gentlenan's reputa
tion yer, by showing US that he was not

we suppose, it will be replied that it was
not the fault of Mr. Jackson, but that of his
! government tn he was bound to obey, &c.

Prosorofsky, VINO, when the ferocious Po-
temkin sent him orders to massacre the
Tartars in the Krimea, nobly answered that
he WAS not qualified to perform the oifice
OF an ass issln. The cabinet of London, It
seems, knew their man better. We wish
always to respect the ministers of foreign
powers who land as the hcrAlds of ami ty
on our shores; but, it must be confessed,
the history of Mr.. Jackson renders him
too much suspected for American conf.
dence.

: People of America-Attend to the fol.
lowing extract of a letter from a gentle man
in Boston to his friend in this place, st ting
an outrage, that saving the affair OF the
Chess peake, is the most violent and afro
cious of any the American flag has been
subjected TO.

report reached the Gener ,l's ear the morn

ately adoP'ed TO ascertaci the grounds on
which it rested.
In the Course of the day and night, salts .
factory evidence was obtained, that revolt
was IN agitation, and tIat a paper had been
Circulated for sgners. The General had
heard that an overt act was necessary to
Constitute treason and To justify accusation !;
