A. TO the circulation Of the Patriot, We care

advise its propristors il indeed they can be

PROVIDENCE. SATURDAY, OCT. 20.
THE PRESIDENCY.
Jackson Faction in Rhode-Island.

JucHSOu F0cttOU III RHOOe-iStuUu.
The political signs in Pcnnsy ylvania, indicate
strong res ction Of public opinion in that State
and from the returns Of the elections thus far
received, we are justified in ndulging strong
and we'll grounded hope, that tho hardy yeo-
manry Of that State, have become awakened
70 sense Of their own interests, and are pre-
pared to give their united efforts to the support
Of the Administration. If we succeed in OBJ
tanning the vote of that great State, our cause
is secured, and wo may. with some propriety,
anticipate political triumph
We have looked towards Pcnnsylvania with
some anxiety, and are gratifed in being ena-
bled to say, that that anxiety, has been, in no
small degree, dspollcd.
Taking it for granted, as we must, that New
England will 60 for tho Administration, and
adding to its force, tho united power Of Penn
sylvanis. New-York, Maryland. Delaware,
Ohio, Illinois, Louisiana and Kentucky, there
cannot be doubt. as to the issue of the ncxt
election, and without making out a table oi
figures, it must be apparent to :he most mat
tsntivs observer Of tho political affairs Of the
day, that Mr.. Adams must be reelected. and
his administration not only strengthened, in
numerical force, but established on a perma.
mont foundation.
The efforts that have been made, TO produce
an effect in favor Of General Jackson, in the
New England States, seem TO have been less
sned-to have lost much Of their energy; and
the most determined opposition presses among
", seem to assume sombre aspect, and to be
about to abandon project, which they must
know never can succeed; and the few parti-
zans we have had among us, and who were
determined in their zeal. have become CON-
psiatively luke.warm, and are less disposed to
mako extravagant bets, as to the result Of the
approaching canvass. We speak more partic-
ularly Of tho few, who reside in our immediate
ncighborhood, and who, for reasons to which
we will not now directly refer, left their first
love, the Administration, to 60 over to Genera
Jackson.
We do not mean to say. however, that thei
hostility to Mr.. Adams has at all abated; We
only moan 10 say. that satisfied as they have
been, Of the entire futility Of their efforts. the,
have given up the undertaking as a bad job
and arc content to sit still, and look quietly
and compls Gently upon tho political elements,
as they war around them.
In proof Of this, we will state few facts q,
they stand. and which il is probable are no,
we'll understood BY this community. Some few
weeks since, q junta, composed Of a few disaf
fsctcd Adams men, and few thorough -goins
Jacksonians, assembled at an obscure part o.
the town, and there, in solemn conclave, i
was resolved, that press should be establish
cd, to advocate the interests Of the I" Hero o
the Hermitags;" and whilst the body Of learn

Yesterday wo witnessed a number of sue
cessful experiments, in removing stains from

OF soap invented by Mr.. Trench of this city
In tho course Of few minutes the whole pro-
cess was accomplished, and tho sullicd portion
Of the fabric. which destroyed the beauty of
the whole, rendered perfectly pure and unspot-
ted. AT first we suspected that the rapdity of
the process was affected by a chemical oper,-
ton which might perhaps injure tho texture of
the cloth; but we have had the most satisfa G.
tory assurances, that the material used s per-
fec''y innocent in It's nature, and does not n

other property Of value. The Same niahs a
man was arrested BY Messrs Mann and Pierce
Of the Town watchi and another was arrest

Lieut.. George s. Greene. We shall in our
next publish correct statement OF the transac-
ton which took place At West Point, rsIatNs
TO tho case Of Lieut. George 8. Grssns, which
has recently caused considerable excitement in
this vicinity. Lieut.. Greene is q native Of this
state, and graduated At West Point. about four
years since. with the highest honours of that
Institution. Atet which hs was appointed
ono Of the resident Professors. and was consid-
cred an ornament to the service in which hs
was engaged, and gave entire satisfaction to
the superintendent al West Point, until he, in
what he considered to be his. duty, declined
sitting on Coyrt Of Inquiry. Instituted by the
superintendent. For this offence Lieut.. Greene
was put under arrest. and while 10 this situa-
ton and for some alledgsd cause, without the
least proof, he was attacked by Lieut.. Whee-
lock, (stationed at West Point while walking
with lady. For this insult. Lieut. Greene
demanded satisfa ction, which Lieut.. whselock
has refused to grant. For the ailcdged griev-
ancs of Lieut.. Wheelock, Lieut.. Greene has
demanded Court Of Inquiry, of the War De-
partmont, which has thus far been refused, and
Immediately after the affair sBove mentioned,
Lieut. Greene, was ordered to leave West Point
and join his company stationed at Belona Ar
senal. Our only motive in bringing this affair
before public at time il to do justice to Lieht.
