-. Editors of the New-fork commercial
In User in their paper of the 2lst instant,
Ao''. ), the editors of this Gazette, senti-
lpps .. which they never uttered. Justice re-
ps"~ that the error (unintentional, we have
idopbt) should be corrected. Webeg leave
W. .,m the editors of the Commercial that we
=. spuossd to rstrocsssion; and that we are un-
- .,nrehension of Mr.. Miners Resolutions
80 AGAIN "agitated." Congress refused to
der them at its last session, and we learned
81 - entire satisfaction, that more than four
i sab Of the House were decidedly opposed to
:. sacb an Interference.
Roston Paper says that the President Of
4. limited States has promptly sent instruc-
.;,os 10 the Secretary of the Navy, to adopt
.u.,sures, in concert with the British aushori-
,;.s Of Nova Scotia, that the perpetrators ofthe
.,rder and piracy, on board the schooner Fairy
NAV be speedily brought TO justice. There can
ss no Joub. ofthe jealous cooperation OF the
aboye authorities, and that the culprits will
,usedily be sent to the United States for trial,
and that iffound guilty will undergo the penal
pof,he law.
We learn that the President of the y. States
will not return to the Seat Of Government until
abou, the Goth Of October, unless official duties
should sooner demand his presence. The Bos-
obri taA h.,
the L. S Telegraph * parroted by the New-York
Enquirer that MIR. Adams is engaged sin wri-
ting the life Of his father The Patriot fur
ther says-"Ifit were said the Presidents time
was occupied in settling the estate and per-
forming the duties devolved on him by the will
Of his late father, as well as in the discharge of
his public duties, The truth would perhaps be
nearer approached than suits the views Of those
who would have it believed that the President
neglects his public duties. Show us wherein the
interests of the country suffer by his absence
from the capital, with which he can at all times
with certainty and despatch communicate, *
then we viii join the grumblers in regretting
that the chief magistrate has been detained by
mere secular concerns from his official station"
The Trenton Convention of Delegates, from
the different Counties of New jersey, was held
on the Goth inst, for the purpose of forming a
Congressional Ticket to be supported at the
election in October next. As the Delegates
would not agree to support one set of men, the
meeting divided and formed two Tickets, as
follows
ADAMS TICKET.
SDr. Samuel Swan, of Somerset.
Or Isaac Pierson, OF Essex.
Dr. Hedge Thompson, of Salem.
'Dr Lewis Condict, of Morris.
sEbenezer Tucker, Esq. Of Burlington.
'nr. George Holcombe, of Monmouth
JACKSON TICKET.
George Cassidy, Esq of Bergen.
Nm. Kennedy, Esq. Of Sussex
Gen. Isaac G. Earle Of Hunterdon.
Benz B. Cooper, Esq. of Gloucester.
Daniel Garrison, Esq of Salem.
SDr George Holcombe, of Monmouth.
sThose marked thus are old members.
II Wui DC observed tnat OOClOr f1OiCOmoe Is
claimed by both parties, and will, of course, be
elected. II will likewise be observed, that the
Adams party propose to remove t,0O of the pre-
sent delegation, and the Jackson party four.
Ihe following account of the proceedings Of
he Convention is from the New Jersey Patriot,
apaper conducted with much ability, and we
believe with strict regard to the truth:
The Jackson opposition have at last succeed
cd In accomplishing their designs. They have
torn asunder all the ties which consistent poll
ueians and the friends CT tranquility and order
Gould have wished 10 be observed. From the
commencement of the drama to its happy and
fortunate conclusion, firm, resolute, unwaver-
ing purpose was evinced by. the opposers of
Sne government, denominating themselves
jackson men 10 carry in defiance of established
feies, Of the voice of the majority of the autho-
EiSed delegates, of even common decency their
predetermined measures. Every principle of
Justce was to be violated, every former mode
y business abandoned, that the voice of the
Feope might be stihed, that the faction who
, ,s; unauthorized and self appointed, might
yau.npo over the honor and dignity of thes state.
s .ney nave failed, disgracefully, ignominious-
.aiiga' In the firm, free, manly voice OF the
