GENERAL JACKSON IN VInGINIA.-From
the conduct Of the Richmond Enquirer, We arc
led to infer, that the State Of Virginia, has
not yet decided to 60 the whole for General
Jackson; although the people of that ancient
State, may have made up their minds, TO OPP
pose tho Administration. 1t will appear from
the following article, which we now copy from
the Enquirer of tie 10th inst. that the citizens
of the counties OF KING, QUEEN and EssEx,
held meeting, when, in their sovereign
capa city, they adopted the following preamble
and resolutions:
=" Whereas, we believe that Con. Andrew
Jackson is not tie choice o. Il ma iority Of the
people Of the United States, IA next President
and thinking as we do, that the different
Jackson meetings, got up bya few OF his
friends in different parts of the Union, are cal
culated to make false impression upon the
minds of those who feel disposed to select some
ct,ror out of tho many worthless of our coun-
try; 5ut being diverted from their choice by
thc political intrigue Of the friends ofJackson,
who mdusriously endeavor to mculcate the
idea, that no other is able to cope with the
present incumbent enlist in Their ranks many
who feel very adverse 10 MS prctenSlOns, ana
only choose him, as the less>o evils.
Resolved, therefore, That while we believe
the meetings in favor of Jackson, TO be much
of the character of this our meeting, as to
numbers, we confidently believe has friends to
be moro camorous than numerous.
Resolved, That we recommend to our coun-
trymen to reflect deeply upon this moment Gus
subject, and not allow their minds to be prs
judiced by the zenl of the advocates of Jackson,
but as time is yet allowed, let US look around
and reflect for ourselves.
Resolyed, That although VIC do not think
ourselves competent to recommend to their
counirymen one fully calculated to meet onr
views, yet as we cannot approve Of Gen. Jack
son, we invite them to reject upon the quail
lications of ilam II. Crawford, or some 9TH
or individual, whose political integrity ent ties
him to the fill confidence Of the nation"
THIS is the first in;imaton we have seen, OF
disposition TO call Mr.. Crawford before the
the public, since he left the political world for
the shades of retirement. That he will be III
duced 10 make another trial for the Prcs.dcn-
cy, we do not believe at any rate, we think
the prospect Of success wo'ld be 20 small, that
he would not again run the risk of meeting po-
litical defeat.

ias been made to deprive them Of what little
he rsvages Of war has left them: and even at
! this hour, portion Of the people ofthe United
States, instiga,ed BY an avaricious thirst, are
striving TO drive beyond the regions Of the Ms
sisaippi this unhappy tribe. and 10 compel
them TO leave the homes Of their fathers,
and those hunting grounds, forests and rivulo's,
which are rendered still dearer to them BY a
rccolle ction Of Their suferRgs.
This mnch injured race Of people should
be su Tered TO remain on the land Of their an
cesfors, in the country OF Their nativity, unless
thev volantarily, b; fair and honorable treaty,
ccde their domains TO this government. BY
the last accounts received from the Greek Nj
IN, We le lrn that the' have received he pro-
position to sell their possessions to Georgia,
with d.splcasrire, and express an unwillnr.ess
to treat upon the subject. Ii is said, how
ever, that the M.Irtosh party have sent a. de-
prration, accompanied by the United States
Agent, to survey the country west Of the NJ -
sssPpi, prep ,ratory to their emigration. II is
stated in the Montgomery, (Ala.) paper. that
il is probable, when the report ofthe delegates
il rereiyed, largo body Of the Greeks Will bc
willing to cmigrato Immediately; that at pre-
sent, starvation is staring them in the face,
and that there never was a more favorable
time for cAec,ng treaty for the balance Of
their lands, than the present. Tins statement
is not corroboratcd by our most recent iniorma-
ton from the Creek country, and the dc'ermi-
ton Of the Council argues otherwise. The af-
fairs Of this race OF Indians, are at present IN
dcporable state; aud it appears'o US, that fur
ther legislation relative to them is unnecessary,
and that true policy, a. we'll at reason. justice
and humanity, urges that they should be per-
mitted to rest where they are, and ENJOY all
the blessings that the Ruler of the Universe
can bcstow npon his creatures.

DOMESTIC IMPRovEMENrs.-The rontin-,
uation of Benefit Street to Fox Point, has al
ready been commenced, and the workmcn are
now engaged in excavating Fox Point Hill.
To make the street run on level line, it will be
necessary to excavate the Hill to depth Of
forty or fifty feet, WHICH will be speedily ac-
complished, as the necessary hands are en-
ployed. The continuation Of South Main
Street, has also been commenced and will
probably be completed before autumn. These
improvements will add much to the beauty and
wealth Of the south part Of the town, and the
individuals at whose instance they have been
commenced, deserve we'll Of the public, for
eyincing such spirit of enterprise.
The Washington Insurance Company have
recently purchased the valuable estate next to
theirs, formerly the property Of the heirs of the
late Samuel Butler, on which the Association
will, the next Spring, erect n splendid granite
building. In doing this, they will pull down
the edifice nos occupied by them, and cover
the ground belonging to the two estates The
building will probably be much larger than any
one Of similar description, that this P!aee-s
fords, and will, in no small degree. add to the
appearance Of the centre Of the town. Nu-
merous other Improvements, not yet noticed,
are going on, Of which we shall speak hereaf-
