conducted in that solemn and impress

Presbyterian sect. The doors were
drown open, and the congregation
had ample opportunity OF witnessing
the transactions OF the visible church.
No one could have gone away unsa-

he was not a participator in the holy

A mong the most interesting occur

ministry. The ceremony took place
on Sa,nrda, afternoon, in the presence
of a large congregation. DR.. Chap
man preached the ordination sermon,
after which, the ministers laying their
hands on the head ofthe candidate, the
rev. Mr.. Wilson, in solemn prayer,
set him apart to the service OF Almigh-
ty God. An impressive charge was
then delivered by the same gentleman,
which closed the ceremony.

1t appears from the New York pa

Outrageous conduct of Mon, of thous-
ands who rushed into the inclosure
whsre the preparation was making for
the ascension, and literally tore the Bal
loon to pieces.--1hs only pretence for
this outrage of the NEWCOMERS TO the

s.. We are informed that on The l4,h OF
October, General jackson resigned bis
seat in the Senate of the United States.
The determination of the General TO
remain no longer member Of the most
enlightened deliberative assembly the
world can produce, in which he must
have been constantly haunted by the
notifying consciousness of bis inferi-
ority, displays great prudence and wis.
dom. Bsing destitute of the talent and
ability which the man must possess who
discharges the arduous duties of that
important station, he was reluctantly
compelled to sit q silent spectator
ofthe august proceedings oftha, body.
When did Gen. Jackson ever engage
in debate? On what occasion did
he ever display the wisdom OF a states
man, or the powers of a vigorous,
highly cultivated and comprehen-
sive intellect When the bill authori
ling appropriations for surveying the
route of roads and canals, which invol-
we'd great and deeply momentous prin.
ciples of constitutional law, was under
discussion in the Senate, he was dumb
when that system Of na!ional policy
which has for its object the protection
of domestic industry, by robbing and
plundering indiscrin.inately every other
class Of society, was under consideration
he did not avail himself of the opportu-
nifty which i. presented for the develop
ment of that profound knowledge Of
economical science which the President
of the United States should possess
In fact, it is universally admitted, that
his senatorial career Las neither been
credible to himself nor usei'd to the ma
ton. He therefore wisely juGsed, that
by retaining bis seat in the Senate, he
only provoked ihvidious comparisons
between himself aud other senators,
which would initiate against his cleo
ton in 1928; at which time the people
of these United States, awaking from
that state OF lamentable delusion which
had nearly caused his elevation to the
highest and most distinguished office on
earth. will cooIly and dispassionately
canvass his pref ensions; and, although
they will award him their gratitude tor
his military services, they can never con-
sistently with their duty to themselves
and their own interest, elect him the
President of the United States.
