Peace to thee loved--nay, truly honor'd friend,
Fi,pd with the virtues OLA noble heart
Thou'st met ON Earth short, uitimely end,
But God has called, and thou must sure depart:
But O. the tear, the ready tear must start.
And feeling all is varied pathos lend,
When mem'ry calls back hours spent by you,
To truth, to virtue, and to honor due.
O! yes, the sad tear now in sorrow falls,
Full deep and flowing from mother's.eye;
Nor mirth of banquet, or of richest halls,
Can sooth her grief or charm away sigh.
Her heart now dwels upon thee good and gone,
Resting. we trust, in hottest sympathy,
Before his masters great and awful throne,
Rich in those joys Earth has never known.
Farewell my friend, thy valued time is past
Yet as its pinions bore thee on to death,
E'ento the end, yes, to thy mournful last,
Death gave thee honor inthy latest breath;
And friends around, their tears and signs have cast,
Doing homage more than to the conqueror's wreath;
For one is what acorld' interest may controul,
The other is the offering of the SOUL

PURCHASING THE PRESS.


The Chilicothe Times, setup, in the summer
of 1924, to advocate the election OF Mr.. Adams,
has been purchased, by an association oil mai
contents, and put into the hands of Major Hoi-
ton, who is TO publish Jackson paper. ne
immediate object Of this purchase, IL is under.
stood, is to aid the reelection, "as IL ecere, OF
John Thompson, Esq the present Representa-
tive in Congress from that district.
Mr.. Thompson is of that class 1.-the COM
munity denominated "morai and religious he
was strenuous advocate for the election OF
Mr.. Adams, upon the ground that no one OF the
other candidates was worthy the support OF
amoral and religious man. His election to
congress was queer kind OF an accident: and
during the last session he discovered that his
moral and religious notions had been altogether
erroneous He ascertained, no one knows how,
that Gen. Jackson was saint, and Mr.. Adams
devil, and he has accordingly transferred his
allegiance 10 the General.
Should the newspaper survive the arduous
labor Of securing his reelection, which is very
doubtful, its efforts will, we suppose, be direct
ed to the election Ct Gen. Jackson, President OF
the U. States, just to support the cause OF mo-
rally and religion, in conjunction with Dun
Green. Moses Dawson, and "George Kesllng,
ESQ. ofLebanon.' CinciaatH Gazette.
Mr.. M'Dufie, Of South Carolina, says the
National Gazette, recently delivered speech
at public dinner given in his district, in which
he said, according to the printed report, --"1he

true state Of the question: II thus appears
that Mr.. MD. is what may be called the an
tagonist power in the Union. He does not d.
vide the empire with Jove; but lie is the Oro-
masses to the Arimanips Of the state,-the very
genius of Light, at war with the spirit of Dark
ness; and we doubt whether the good divinity
Of the Persians if he had made an epuary dis
course concerning himself, could have descant-
ed more eInphatically on his own merits, or as
cribed more evil deed and design 10 his baleful
adversary. "Ihe Administration, exclaimed
the Edgefield orator, "ha,e endeavored to drive
''Iiberty from the very last entrenchment-and

"ly in ITSIX person that they have attempted to
"give the fatal blow" SO il was in Greece
that Philip aimed at Demosthenes; and in
Rome, Anthony at Cicero. Let not M'Duhie
fall by the usurpers and tyrants al Washington!
That catastrophe would be the more awful and
deplorable by reason of the rational hope, which
the following declaration Of the same heroic
champion of liberty is fitted to excite

to an opposition which it supposes is 10 be made

MIR. JEFFERSON.

The following, first put forth by the National
Republican printed at Cincinnati, Ohio, is TAX
ing the rounds as one of the discoveries Of the
day.
Jefferson "Reminiscences. While the Repub-
lie is eohoing the praises of the iilustrious au-
thor of the Declaration of Independence, It is
proper to recall his sentiments, now that the
lips which uttered them are forever closed by
the seal of death. Especially the opinions Of
the departed sage, on men and measures that
are passing through the ordeal OF public scru-
tiny, should be presented to the nation. When
the torrent of bitter waters was poured forth
at the close of the Seminole campaign, by the
remorse.ess prosecutors Of that virtuous and
enlightened patriot, Andrew Jackson, Thomas
Jefferson came forth from his retirement, and
at public dinner in Virginia, gave the follow
| ing toast
"ANDREw JAcKsoN-Honor and gratitude to
| the man who has filled the measure of his coun-
try's glory
See Waldo's Memoirs, and the Virginia papers.
Now, "who the deuce is Waldo, and where
can a sight of his Memoirs be obtained? On
what occasion did Mr. JEFFERSON "come forth
and give the sentiment above quoted! Ii our
recollection serves us, the Sage OF MonOceHo,
from the momemt of his retirement from the
Presidential Chair in 1909, to the day Of his
death, attended but one "pubic dinner" that
being the entertainment given to General La
FAyETTE at the University in 1924, where no
such Toast was drank: And we know moreo-.
yer that he was ever remarkably cautious in
| expressing his preferences and opinions of pub
lie men, especially those standing in the rela-
ton that General JACKSON did to the Executive
and Congress of the United States at the close
of the Seminole Campaign. We call upon the
Editor of the Cincinnati paper, and those who
! have endorsed his statement, to tell us lChen
and ,oheye this Toast was given by Mr. JEFFER-
soN-produce the record-let US have chapter
and verse; With respect to WaIdo'S Memoirs,
we doubt whether such book was ever heard
| of in this part Of the World; and it would be
something like a Wild Goose chase to SO in search

that the truth should be known: forif Mr. JET
