by testimony apparently of lOoseand uncGr- tain desenption-nor is 1t for us to say, what kind or quantity of evidence, might be sufi- cient to produce an irresistible conclusion in the mind of the general, that great political rival would descend to use the basest means for the promotion of his own ambitious pur- poses. The letter speaks for itself, and we recommend an attentive perusal of it to our readers, as it will certainly lead tO a course of inquiry attended with important results

 GENTLEMEN-I was formerly Jackson ad- vOcate. My confidence, confess, is every day more and more staggered. His charac- ter bids fair to be made up altogether of ex- plantations, and when it is found necessary to have regular board who appear to be con- tinually in. session to sustain his character, it is more than ever believed character at all suitable for a President of the United States should require. It seems he has recently laid out some new work for these conservators of his good name. Not willing to trust his cause with others, he appears as witness in propria persOne. Like a zealOus advocate, finding the testimony squeeze a little too hard, lays by his official character and offers himself as witness, and after testifyiug awhile resumes the lawyer again, and so he is lawyer and witness alternately as the case he espouses requires. We certainly have men competent for any office, whose characters need no committees to protect. understand char acter-clearing- p-board is to be organized in this city, to be in session every day, to refi,te any and all charges made or to be made a. UaiOcf dNnn. .EaPkcOn and fhaf forpoc nf tiicates will be printed-headed as follows :: "These may certify, &c. that such and such duels were fairly fought SLc.-That he never violated the constitution only when it was ne- cessary; that ID no instance has he procured any to be hung without good and sufficient cause, and if there was no other cause, the safety of the country has always warranted whatever he has.done." Now I never will vote for any man to preside over this nation who relies on bundle of certificates from a self constituted tribunal which he may carry about in his pockets. This last affair think will puzzle the committee. Gen. Jackson states that he knew of this horrible corrupt proposal while he was in the Senate, and when MT. Clay's appointment was confirmed never divulged it What let such abom- inable treason pass without proclaiming it |? Suffer one of the greatest appointments in the Republic to pass when he knew the candid ate had been guilty of such vile treason to the people of his country? Will they certify he did not know it He has volunteered by hls own letter to fasten upon himself this un- pardonable deTiliction from duty. This must be admitted,or he ;has knowingly stated to the world to dsparage Mr. C., that which he knew to be false.-" Out of thine own mouth will condemn thee.' A FREEMAN.
 The National Gazette gives the following account of the Celebration of the FOURTH in Philadelphia The public proceedings of yesterday embraced as usual parade of military bodies, orations, dinners, and appro- priate theatrical entertainments. Several of the volunteer companies dined in the neigh pouring villages. Throughout the greater part of the day our streets were as quiet as on the Sabbath. Both the party dinners -the Administration. and the Jackson were numerously attended; the number of the guests at the former exceeded, we are told 200; at the latter 400. The details of what passed at each, will. no doubt, be fur nished for the papers. Those who partook of the Jackson dinner at Vauxhall Garden were surprised by the heavy rain in the af- ternoon, and completely drenched. The same accident befel the crowds ofboth sexes in the boats winch studded the river. A mass of water came from the clouds which was al- most sufficient to submerge the boats. We have heard that severals were upset by the squall, and more than one person drowned. The number of the victims is not yet ascer- tained. Some disorders occurred in the steam boats, and many cases of intoxication were observed in the evening, but these come with in the privileges or license of that Anniversa- ry.
 Some of the regular toasts at each of the two great dinner parties of the Fourth, con tain strong innuendoes; the volunteer toasts are like sharp cross-fre and in the multi tude of the latter, we do not find one which refers to the day or the occasion. This fact illustrates the influence of the plan of meet ing under party titles and banners on the An niversary of our National Independence. An eminent foreigner travelling in this country, was asked on his return from a certain sec ton of it, what he thought of its religion. " Religion" said he, "I heard nothing of the religion, but heard great deal of the minis ters.asg
