A large meeting of the Democratic Citizens
OF Philadelphia, have approved of the eight
delegates to Harrisburg, returned by the De-
neral Ward Committee. They then passed
resolutions recommending it to the Harrisburg
Convention to nominate Gen. Jackson-and
also, earnestly recommending him to their re-
publican fellow citizens thrOug hout the Uni

resolutions, was Mr.. Geo. NJ. Dallas, the FIRST,
and we supposed the fast friend of MIR, Cal

The following paragraph is from the last Phi

1t thus appears, that Mr.. Calhoun's PhiIa-

despair, and forming coalition with the
friends OF General Jackson. Andis il come 10
this? Where is the mighty influence which
these Philadelphia friends claimed for MIR
