Ernm HE Democratic Press.

An old Republican, feeling some alarm from
an article i'm late Wilmington Federal paper,
i. DESTROYS Of bringing the cause To the notice OF
his brother Democrats. The Delaware Gaz.
published by Mr. Harker, has made an appeal
10 The Federaiists of Deia,care on the coming

port of particular candidate for the Prrsidrn-
cv, is coupled with the avowed intent OF keep
i-e down The Democrats H. don't propose a
liberal union: but rallies the frderalists to unite
in favour of Jackson TO keep down the demo-
Gratis. The paper, spraking, no doubt. the Ian
guage OF some federal leaders who have linked
themselves TO the fortunes Of he General, SAYS:
"Nithin q short time we have seen in Della
ware two democratic administrations, and u
the samples which they produced were moi
such as to satisfy others, they were abundan'iy
sufficient 10 convince US, that neither the honor

In another column We give specimen of
general Jackson's qualifications for the Pres.
Gency, and of the opinion heretofore entertain
ed Of him by the editors Of the Richmond En-
ouirer. who ale now in the front rank Of his
supporters General Jackson is said to have
studied law-wss Judge, representative, sena-
tor, &c and being general, was especially
bound to understand the rules and articles by
which he was 10 be governed and was TO govern
others-and yet we find that he has put con-
srruc,ion upon the second article Of the rales
and regulations for the government Of the ar
nv of the United States, which school boy
would be ashamed Of Well may the editors
Of the Richmond Enquirer ask, "Is such man
qualified 70 be president"
Whilst we freely award to general Jackson
all the merit to which he is entitled by his mi
litary services, we must be excused for denying
that those services form any claim to ,he high
est civil station IN our government, especially
when unaccomp panied by the requisite talents
for that station. II the general possessed IA.
lsnts beyond mediocrity, they would have been
manifested in some one OF the various offices
which he has filled. But that he does not, has
been over and over again asserted by many Of
those who are now singing hosannahs to him.
Nav, some Of them have ridiculed him in the
severest terms, and yet, have the effron,ery to
denounce those, who, not having the convenient
knaek Of accommodating their opinions and
principles 10 their interests, still estimate his
talents as formerly, As then, his prominent

to whom he would have been held as as laugh
ing-stock, had he taken the joke too seriously
On his arrival at Auteuil, therefore, he laughed
and pretended to be highly amused at ihe trick,
but his anger was ill-disguised. Incredible as
it may seem, Talleyrand, who was in merry
mood, Immediately conceived the idea OF hoax
ing him a second time: Sc Well General, said
he, you have been disappointed Of the wild
boar hunt, it is true. But it is yet early. You
must think Of returning to Paris SO soon.-
There are plenty Of rabbits in the Bos de Bou-
logne. LOUIS XVI used often to shoot there.
Lock-making and rabbi:-shooting were his IA
vorlte amusements, poor man! He was an ex-
cellent shot, you know" "Yes, but l am o
very bad shot," said Bonaparte, who had not
recovered his good humor "Your ride must
have given you an appetite" resumed Tally
rand. "Whilst you sit down and partake Of
some refreshments, will send to Paris for my
guns. They belonged to Louis XVI"
The repast was prolonged for the space Of
two hoers, during which Al. Talleyrand over
whelmed the future Emperor with that elegant
fattery in which he is such an adept. Mean
while servants had been despatched to Paris,
with orders to purchase all the tame rabbits
they could procure. They collected as many
as FIVE or six hundred, and conveyed them in
faeres to the Bois de Boulognc. Bonaparte
set out, armed with his gun, and attended
as before, by his aide-de-camp. 81 am not
Louis XVI, said he, al am quite certain that
1 shall not shoot single rabbit" However,
he sooE shot several. The aide-de camp see
ing the gravity with which Napoleon massa-
cred the poor animals, talking all the while
about Louis XVI, was seized with strong in
clinaton to laugh. The fiftieth rabbit was now
shot, and Bonaparte delighted with his sue
cess. At length the aide-de-camp could hold
out no longer, and stepping up to him, he whis-
pered, "Really General, begin te think that
these are not wild rabbits. suspect that ras-
cal Of priest~ has been playing us another
trick"
Bonaparte, violently enraged, galloped back
to Paris. He was not reconciled to Talleyrand
for six months after, and he probably threat
ened vengeance if he dared to speak Of rabbit
shooting or boar hunting in any of the saloons
Of the Fauxbourg st. Germain for it is very
certain that these two anecdotes have never
been circulated in Paris.
The law for destroying the liberty of the
press has excited violent Indignation, and will
probably experience furious resistance among
those classes who will be injured by it. Even
the French Academy, and other institutions dis
tihguished for severity, have protested against
Peyronnet's law.
This measure was proposed by one Of the
censors I'M. Lacretell Jr.) 1t has been stated
that thirty bishops will be added to the peer
age, to ensure the passing Of the law in the
Upper Chamber. Charles X is reported to
have said, that in case the law should not pass,
he will act by his own authority against the
printers. "I am determined to save the souls
Of my subjects, he added

GYpsEY. We copy the annexed account of
the detection and conviction Of an infamous
old Gypsey, from the New-York American,
and we hope that the miserable old hag, will
be compelled 10 perform legal quarantine, un-
I'll she has fully purged herself Of the crimes,
with which she has been charged. There is
no offence in the black catalogue Of guilt and
crime. which can he equal to that, which this
accused old jezebel has been guilty Of; and
she should receive a sevcrer punishment, than
that which has been inflicted. Those who de-
prcdate upon our property, or even rob us Of
our reputation, are innocent, when compared
with those, who burst asunder our heart-striDgs,
and tear from US, the offspring Of our love.
"On Saturday, Joseph Hays brought into
this Office miserable looking old woman, taxi
en- by him in Broadway, who had frequently
been brought before the police for vagrarcy
and other offences, the head and front of which
was the stealing of children. She had been
detected on several former occasions in the act
of carrying of, to other cities, interesting young
children, to assist her in her acts Of yagabond-
ism. Being beggar by propensity and prac-
tice, these unfortunate children were made the
means ofexciting sympathy for their sol disant
grandmama. Her residence Is somewhere in
New-Jersey, whence she makes occasional de-
scents upon t.is city, from which,, being we'll
known, she has been frequently driven by tho
officers Of the Police, with threats, that il
found here again she would be severely dealt
with. Having dsre garded this warning seve-
raj times, the Mag strates, on this occasion,
saw fit to make good their promise Of salutary
correction. She was sent, in spite Of sighs,
tears and protestat:ons, in very bad English,
TO repent her offences in Bridewell. She be.
labored poor Hays with abuse, called him 1
bad man, and took God to witness that he had
a spite against herr
On reading the two last sentences, We could
not but smile, at the expense of the feelings Of
the writer of them, Mr.. Charles King, who by
the way, is man that has set himself up as
g the pink Of morality" and the hero of all
that is virtuous-so says Noah-and who
makes nnoxampled claims to perfect knowl-
edge of the " ConImonweaith's English" Ac-
cording to Mr.. Kings account, the old Gyp-
scy, uttered sighs, tears and protestations in
very bad Engl.shP' How very singulars what
a remarkable utterance the old hag must have
had! This is the first time, that We ever heard
OF any ones uttering tears from the mouth!

for political opponents. His feelings were
those ofa statesman, not Of an author, and bad

cuiiar emoluInents Of literature, Swift seems
never to have coveted, and therefore readily
abandoned TO Pope the care Of selecting aud
arranging their fugitive pieces into three vol
umes Of Miscellanics, well as the profit
which might arise from the publication. He
himself was engaged in matters of more mo-
mentous Importance.
There is but one trait in the character os
Swift, that We admire ;-and that was his mod
esty. So indifferent was he Of the applause OF
the world, that he suffered his works to appear
anonymously, and never made any particular
claims to literary merit.
Pope, we have always admired, as the frs,
Of poets, and as the Homer of the age in which
he iourished. But he was arrogant, vain and
conceitcd, churlish and sour; and if any man
in the world, except himself, received the least
applause, lie was indignant. and raied against
the whole community. He was Q sour, i'll.
