GENERAL JAcKsoN's REPLY.-We have
The satisfaction Of presenting in this days pa
per, the reply of General Andrew Jackson, to
the letter of Mr.. Clay, relative TO the charges
Of the General, contained in his letter address
ed to Mr.. Carter Beverly.
AS to the letter itself, it is just such an one
as was expected, and will fail 20 extrlcate Gen.
eral Jackson from the dilemma in which he is
involved. Itproves nothing against the poti-
cal integrity of Mr.. Clay; and is nothing more
or less, than an ingenious document written or
the purpose of wheedling the people, and is
undoubtedly from the pen Of John Fl. Eaton,
and signed by General Jackson From the
tenor of tho first paragraph, which complains
that Mr.. Beverly was never authorized to make
the letter public; and, indeed, from the whole
tenor OF The document, we consider it back
;ng-out affair, and leaves General Jackson in
the same unpleasant position he was in, before
Inc caused it to be written by Major Eaton. It
brings Mr.. Buchanan into difficulty; and throws
the whole weight of the accusations on his
shoulders; but as that gentleman will prob
ably Immediately make formal response, we
forbcar making any remarks, relative to the
part he has played in the political drama
The reply leaves MIR. Clay freed from the
charges of corruption, and renders him still
further entitled to the confidence Of the Ameri-
can people.

lands, mark out for them oiherrcgions for their
residence, and they are scarcely located in
their new resting places, before they are again
required to move; and thus they are driven
from cline to cline, and plain to plain, till
they are extinguished by warring neighbours,
or the little remnant Of them that may remain,
are left to drag out miserable existence; TO
buffet "the rcltngs of the philcss storn,'
and 20 feel the iron rod of persecution.
And where is that once powerful tribe, the
Yamcsics, or the Natchcz, or tho Delawares,
Ofthe two first, nothing remains to tell of their
existence, but the tradiiionary tales of their
suflerngs, and the crueties they endured at the
hands of the Christian; and of the latter, but
handful remain 10 recount the sad story of
their misfortuncs and sorrows. Once, a pow
erful and warlkc people. brave and noble,
they had their peaceful hamlets on the banks
Of the Delaware and the Schuykill; the woods
and wilds. and the bountiful hand OF nature
supplied them with food, and the pure waters
of the babblng rivulet, siaked their thirst, as
they mcandered over their beds of sand; and
each returning day, introduced joyful morn
ing Once h.ppy, much prosecuted people;
and where are ye now;-what is your condt-
ion! Far from the home ofyour sires, beyond
the mighty rivers Of the west, in an inhospta-
bic region, surrounded by a horde of warlikc
neighbours, against whose savage ncursions,
they have no means of defence, do they now
dwell; and cut oil, by the sword of The invader,
scarce enough remain, 10 speak of the former
greatness Of their nation, or TO recount the he
roic achievements of their ancestors.
The fate that awaited the Yamcsics, the
Natchcz and the Dclawares, will soon over
take the Chickasa ws, ,Cherokc ces Greeks, Choc-
taws, and the Seminoles, and ere a century
shall have elapsed, the traces of their existence
will have been erased from the tablets of
memory.
The policy Of the nation, in driving from re-
gon to region, the Indian population oc our
country, is mistaken one it is inconsistent
with all the principles of Justice and humanity.
Let them remain in the enjoyment Of the lands
granted them, by the father of mercies let
US educate them, instruct them in the arts of
civilization, adopt them as friends and broth
ers, and treat them as beings formed by an all
wise Creator, not to be prosecuted, but to live,
be happy, and fill an honorable place in the
scales OF existence.

JACKSON MEETING.-A ia ckson meeting
and public dinner, was held at Fowor's Gar
den, Lexington Kentucky, on the 2lst ultimo,
which was attended by two or three thousand
people, composed of all ranks and conditions
of society, but chiefly made up Of the friends
Of the administration, who went thithcr from
motives of curiosity, to behold the proceedings
and department of the faction. As the dinner
was got up by the par.izans of General Jack
son, probably fifty in number, the friends Of
tho administration, remained inactive spccta-
tors, and made no attempt to annoy those who
were disposed to worship their political Idol.
This was as it should have been; for we hold
it just and right, that any man, or set Of men,
should in this free country, be allowed to as
semblc pcaceably and quietly, whenever it
pleases them, whether for political or religious
purposes; and that no one, however widely
he may be opposed to their principles, should
attempt to interrupt them.
The multitude was addressed by the Hon.
John Pope, the determined personal and polit-
ical foe of Mr.. Clay, and the brother-in-law
of Mr.. Adams. His speech was signalized by
its virulcnce and utter contempt for all deco
rum, in the course of which he said, that "it
one corner of hell, ,pas hotter than another,
it ought to be reserved for those who circula-
ted calumny against General Jackson" Tom.
P. Moore Governor Desha, and the Hon. Will
liam T. Barry, all determined Jackson men
were present, and with thosxcep,ion of Gov
ernor Desha, addressed the multitude in viru-
lent speeches. To get up this public meeting,
unwearied pains were taken; and TO gather a
multitude the highways and by-ways were
ransacked, and the lame, the halt, and the
bind, bond and free, rich and poor, the hon.
cured and the dishonoured, the abandoned and
the virtuous, were Unfortunately invited to
attend, free Of expense.
The speeches Of Messrs. Pope and Barry,
were remarkable for the abuse they heapcd
upon Mr.. Clay, and are TO be speedily printed
in pamphlet form, for the edifcation of the
world, and the amusement of the rising gcner-
aton Both the speakers, are known as po-
ltical sucidos; and since the friends of the ad-
mnstration will not support them, as last
resort, they have gone over to Jackson,
"hoYc, artillery and foot," with an expccta-
ton, that il elected, he will confer upon them
severally, Offices OF emolument and honor.

murder of whipple; and, as tho world well
knows, at last consummated the bloody deed
that he had planned, and for which he will
soon suffer death on the gibbct.
But from what we can learn, il does not ap-
pear that Mrs Whipple consented TO the muir
der Of her husband, though il is apparent that
she was aware Of the intentions OF Strang, and
did not warn him OF the danger that hung over
him; and tn city, by her department and ST.
lence, permitted the horr:d deed to DC perpe-
rated. Be this as it may, however, the guilt
that hangs over her can never be removed
and TO an ignomlnious grave she must sooner
or later descend, carrying with her the con-
tempt Of the world, and the wrath Of the Eter-
nal Avcnger.
The fate Of this wretchcd woman, should
deeply Impress upon the minds OF parents, the
Importance Of attending to the education OF
their chidren;-it should teach them the m-
portance of watching over the actions of their
offspring, and the necessity OF inculcating those
pious and virtuous principles, which will nva-
riably steer youth from vice, and lead them in
the paths Of re ctitude and happiness. Parents
should carefully, though without rigor, look to
the conduct OF their children, punish the first
steps they take, which depart in the least from
propriety and picty. Had the wretched woman
who is the subject Of these remarks been prop
erly attended to, and all her actions watched,
she would, in all human probability, have been
good, a vrtuous, and useful member OF So
ciety.
But she is now lost to the world; +; 10 her
self, ana abandoned to all the vices, Of which
her sex can be guilty; and though VIC must
abhor Il wretch so vile, we cannot but lament,
that she Is lost forever; and that the gates of
mercy and Of grace, are forever closed upon
her hopes, her prospects, and her prayers
But yot, charity will plead for mercy in her
behalf, and pity and humanity will strive to
throw the mantle offorgiveness over her errors.

TuR CIRCUS. II will be seen by the bills
of the day and the advertisements in the news
papers, that Westminster Circus will be opened
on Monday evening, by Company Of Equcs.
trans from the Lafayette Circus. New York.
This Company, is probably the strongest,
and most accomplished one, in the country
and as the building in which they will perform
is new, and commodous, and as the public,
have manifested a disposition to encourage
equestrian exercises, it is believed that the
Circus will be literally patronized.
Mr. Hans, since he has been with us, has
been unremitting in his exertions TO crafty the
community, and by his gentlemanly deport-
ment, and strict attention to business, merits
all the patronage that can be bestowed. We
understand that the present Company, is en-
gagged for limited number Of ghts; hence ,all
who are disposed to amuse themscles will do
well to attend. The ladas will find an agree
able place Of resort at the Circus, and abun-
dant preparations Cor their especial accommo-
dation.

U-HARRIsBURGH CONVENTION. This
Convention adjourned on Friday evening. The
proceedings will be published shortly in
pamphlet form, when we shall give a detailed
account Of their transactions. The United
States Gazette, (the editor being presently says
we may say ''that there neverwas an assembly
Of the same number Of individuals in this coun-
try, which contained so much practical knowl-
edge; and as opinions, views, and acquire
ments, were freely interchanged, 1t follows as
a matter of course, that knowledge was trea-
sured up to be diilIiscd in different portions Of
the country, with important advantages TO
every secton.''
The memorial to Congress was signed by
ninety-nine members of the Convention Gov.
Morrow having arrived from Ohio, on the 4th
day.
The memorial recommends duty of 20
cents on all wool over the value in foreign
port of cents, and IL cents annually un-
til it reaches so cents.
Woollen goods, with few exceptions, Of
less than so cents, to be valued at so cents;-
those between so cents and So so, at So So;
those between 50 SO and 4, at "a; those be-
5per cent. annually to be added, until it
amounts to so per cent.
Iron is recommended to stand at one cent
per pound
Cotton goods, hemp and flax, and grain, are
recommended to the favourable consideration
of Congress.
Such, we learn, is an outline of the features
Of the memorial.
Governor Shulze, of Pennsylvania, favoured
the Convention with his presence.

A southern editor thus announces his return
home, and the resumption Of his editorial du-
tits:--
"Our editor has returned and, considering
all things. in tolcrabc good condition. He
arrived here last Sunday week; since that
time he has had two attacks of fever, one at
tack of the gravel, one attack Of violent and
unprovoked abuse, and once robbed. So, all
things considered, he has seen little trouble
upon the heels Of his frolic.''
