such miserable tales In 1898, Mr. Craw-
ford was an opponent OF Mr.. Jefferson.
When he arrived in the Senate OF the
United States, he treated Mr.. Madison
in several Of his speeches 6ith great in
delicacy, When Mr., Monroe was up
for the presidency, he ohhosed him with
all his forces. When he became Presi-
dent, and lorgave and took him into his
cabinet, he headed the radical party, and
furnished them with arms to attack this
very administration, in order to weak Ell
Mr.. Monroe's influence in the nation,
under the suspicion that the President
had preferred others in his cabinet to
him. With these facts before our eyes,
we are told by unblushing Editors, that
Mr.. Crawford has always been the friend
OF Jefferson and of Madison, and their
policy, and that he enjoys the full conf
dence of the President of the Uni ed
States ! The people will not credit such
misrepresentation" Statesman

Amongst the subjects upon which !,
is probable your body will have to acl
at the present session, that Of the de-
pressed state Of our currency has high
claim to your attention.
When our banks suspended the pay.
ment of specie III 1919, it was though,
by those who then advocated it, to be a
measure which the endorsements OF
the country a, that time required, bu, no
one believed that the suspension ough,
to, or would continue for any length OF
time; and as consequence, of such a
belief, law was passed at the session
|of 1924, requiring that the banks shall!
commence the redemption of their
notes on the first M onday of November
next. AS that time approaches, an ap-
prehension appears 10 prevail, that much
distress will result from rigid enforce
men, of the law, and soliciude is felt
by many, for an extension of the time,
when it is to be carried into effect.
There being difference of opinion in
relation TO this matter among the most
enlightened men Of the country, offer
that which have formed, with deep
sense OF my liability to err, not doubling
but that the legislature will give to it all
the consideration, to which, they may
think it entitled. II is urged in favor ct

their debtors, the effects Of which will
be felt by all classes of society, and that
scenes of distress will follow which the
country has not heretofore Witnessed.
This result think is extremely ques-

banks withdraw their paper from circu-
lation, its place in a great measure will
be supplied, by sound currency, circu.
lated by individuals who now keep their
money boarded up, from want of con-

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

Extract of letter from Washington.
"Y, III have heard much, and you will
hear more, Of Mr.. Crawiord's visit to
Mr. Jefferson. 1t was well-timed. In
this month, the president has usually
Visited his tarm in AIbemarle, and on
his way stopped some days at Mr.. Ma
dison's, and with him made visi, to
Monticello. You know the estates of
these great men lie contiguous. As
soon as Mr.. Crawford heard that Mr..
Monroe had left his estate in Loudon
for that of Albemarle, he Quilted Wash
ington and arrived 81 Mr.. Madison's be-
fore him. On the Presidents drawing
up to Mr.. Majison's house, he appeared
much surprized to see Mr.. Crawford
there and with that acute disccrnment,
that sound judgment, for which he is SO
emincntly conspicuous, he saw at once
what il all meant, and with an excellent
address declined aligbting, giving as a
reason for not passing day or two, as
usual, that he was pressed for time to
meet a gentleman, who was waiting at
.Albcmarle TO treat with him for the pur-
chase of that estate. This fact of the
Presidents no, stopping at Mr.. Madi-
sons, is innocen,ly stated in letter re-
ceived here from person in Mr.. Madi-
sons family Part of Mr.. Crawford's
plan Is therefore frustrated; for had he
succeeded in bringing the great trio to-
gether at Monticello, and mixed with
them, then the nation would have been
sravely told why This meeting was pro-
iec,ed lha, II was 10 reconcile Mr..
Monroe and Mr.. Crawford to each other,

President, Mr.. Jefferson and Mr.. Madi-
son, the republican party in their sup

FRANKFORT, (KY.) OCT. Is.
MOMENTOUS DECISION.

On Saturday each Of the Judges OF
the Court of Appeals, gave separate
opinions relative to the cons,iutiopaity
OF the endorsement, and replevin laws.
Judges Boyle and Owsley concur in the
opinion, that the remedial law consti-
lntes the obligation Of the contract; that
he laws in force when contracts are
made must govern the remedy; and
consequently that all endorsement and
replevin laws, which are intended to
operate on pre-existing contracts, vio-
late the obligation OF contracts, end are
thus far unconstitutional and void ; but
tina, these laws ars valid as to ali con-
tracts made during their existence
Judge Mills goes further, and is perhaps
more consistent. He declares all re-
plevin laws unconstitutional and void to
all intenls and purposes, and that there
can be allowed only reasonable delay
between Judgment and execution.

SICKNESS IN VIRGINIA.


In the neighborhoods of Fredericks-
burg, Alexandra, and Charlestown, The
people have been severely afflicted-but
the fever, which was the prevalent dis
ease, was not confined to the low lands.
The Virginia II eraid says: The mos,
painful accounts are all from the upper
parts OF the state, where, it is stated, the
mortality is very great. On this painful
subject, the Alexandria Herald remarks
We continus to hear The mos, dis

people in the country. A letter Of the 9Th

ness, (Which ne calls +" he fever,") RACES
in that village with great mortality. The
disease is laying waste more or less o.
every family that We hear of; and ,hink
ii Is equally as destructive as the yellow
fever was in Philadelphia in past times.
The Repository, printed at Charles.
town, Jefferson county, Virginia, states
that considerable degree of sickness
counties, and that many cases have ter.
mlnaIed fatally. This but TOO surely
confirms the oral accounts. The extent
OF the prevalence OF disease is almost in.
credible. In one family, not far from
Charlestown, out OF twenty-sx souls
twenty-tOur are down with inlermi,ten,
or bilious fever. This is the DIRE adiu
penalty paid for living on rich soil
where, under the influence of such sea-
son as the present, vegetation is injuri-
ously exuberant."
The inhabitants of Louisville have rea
son to be thankful that they have, during
the past summer, been exempt from any
epidemic. During the preseu, year, few
towns in the Union have enjoyed great.
er share OF good health.

From the Raleigh IN. Co. Star.

Notwithstanding we concur generally
with our correspondent "Orlando," as
to the character and qualifications of the
candidates for the next presidency, we
cannot but dissent from him in the posi-
ton he has taken respecting Mr.. Adams /;
and were we, under such sentiments, To
permit his remarks to pass unnotced, it
might be considered as an acQuesCeDCe
on our part. We shall, therefore, brie fly
state our reasons for disagreelng in OPT
MON with him upon this subject.
In former communication, after be-
slowing many encomiums upon the ia
Tents, integrity, &c. OF Mr.. Adams, he
concludes, by observing !" that a Presi-
dent from non -staUeholding state Can
never be the man whom the policy OF
North Carolina should support; not thai
she dlsllkes character IN whom the
prepossessing qualities which form the
enlightened statesman and insinuatiug
politician are concentrated, but, plain
and simply, that the sentiments of the
North are too widely different ircm those
ofthe South" Were principles, found
ed upon such sectional and Liberal con-
sderations as these, to govern the Anne
rican people in their selection of per
,on TO ell the presidential char, it wou d
require but little OF prophecy to foretel
The dreadful consequences that would
ensne: state would be arrayed against
state, and one section ofthc Union against
another; the links of our confedcracy
would be broken; anarchy and civil ar,
with all their horrors, would follow; and
our country, now the last hope OF free
dom and the refuge of the oppressed of
all nations, would become the theatre OF
strife and bloodshed.
If" Orlando" has no other objection
to either of the candidates than bis being
native Of a non-slave holding state, we
hope he will wave it, and no longer urge
a doctrine iraught with such pernicious
consequences, and which, if once i'm bioed
by majority of our citizens, must ine-
vitality undermine and destroy the fun
damental principles of our political COM
pact.
The Editor of the Hillsborough Re-
corder, in commenting upon "Orian-
dos" communication, makes The follow
ing appropriate remarks:
" The prevalence of such spirit as
is manifested by this writer, Orlando I

our Union, and of our boosted liberties.
