Sadalins 10 Perfection.

VJNHOMAS G. PRETTYMAN has lately Patented,
Il and is now Manufacturing, Spring Saddle, much
superior that have hitherto been offered 10 ,he
public. This Improvement consists III the suspension
of the whole seat by two springs, similar to gig
spring, which being screwed Oh the back part OF the
cantle ofthe saddle, receives iron BAR forming the
sweep of the cantle; thus preserving 1T from receiving
any injury by horse rolling in the saddle; and making
the saddle tree firm than it would otherwise be:
which cannot fail t. give to both horse and rider
frame also the back OF the cantle OF the saddle,
calculated to raise the vace or porimaneau and Keep
entirely clear of the horses back This can be put
on removed moment.
norder to prove the public the superiority ofthese
Saddles, he will give few extracts OF letters from
those who have them in use-among whom Is the late
President of the United States:

And the wind ceas'd--it ceasd.-that word

The Letter Of Mr. MARLEY, which we copy to-
day, will be read with great interest by all who yet
entertain doubt the score OF the pretended nego-
tations between the friends of Mr.. ADAMS and Mr.
CLAY preceding the Presidential Election. For
ourselves, WE have wanted nothing of the sort to
convince US of the purity Of that election which
we have always affirmed, and have always believed,
to have been without taint or flaw. We, there
fore, did not, after Gen. JACKSON Letter to
Mr.. BEVERLY, want either Mr.. BucnANAw's or Mr..
MARKLEY's Letter to satisfy us that Gen. JACKSON
had totally misunderstood the source and object OF
Mr., BucHANAN's oyertures to him. Upon others,
however, who did not, like us, witness the whole
scene, from its beginning, the mysterious ousivings
followed by the formal disclosure of Gen. jackson.
may have created some uneasy di5trustul feeling
in regard to the circumstances of that election. To
all such, we say, read MIR. Markley's plain, unvar-
nlshed story, and then answer, there was any ne
gotlaon, or attempt at negotiation, amongst parties
10 the house OF representatives on the eve of the
Presidential Election, Ufo were the parties to il
We believe there was nothing censurabe on either
side; but If there was, it appears thatit assuredy

From the .NeW York american.

Mr. Markley represents himself as having been
Z" originally friendly to the election of General
jackson TO the Presidency"-and having g voted
for him in the Democratic Caucus of 1924" and
subsequently as having, in the capacity of a rep
resentative from Pennsylvania used his best eyer
tons, by every fair and honorable means to promote
his election to the Presidential Chair" Thus then
is proved, as we have always maintained that the
conversation between Mr.. Buchanan and Mr.. Mark.
ley was one between two partizans associated in the
same cause--both being for Jackson. Then. as 70
the conversation it one of Mr.. Buchanan's seeL.
ing; that Mr.. Markiey was urged by Mr.. Buchanan
to see Mr.. Clay to ascertain whether he would not
vote with Pennsylvania for jackson that MIR. M.
has no recollection of having urged Mr. B. to call
on General Jackson {" to the Office of Secretary
Of Staei' that he never used any express;o1
9 about fighting Mr. Adamss friends with their owr
weapons > and, finally, Mr.. Markley says, " M,
Impressions are, that the object of .Mr. Buchanan;
visit was to urge the proprety of my seeing Mr.
Clay, andto give my views as to the Importance If hi

FROM ot Louis, we learD that the result of the
late expedition, to que the rising Indian hostilities
has been exceedingly fortunate and satisfactory
affording prootof great promptitude on the part of
Gen. Atkinson, and of efficiency on the part Of the
troops, whose station at Jefferson Barracks seems
to be admirably adapted for enabling detachments
to be rapidly moved to any point of disturbance on
the frontier. The General succeeded in obtaining
surrender OF the principal offenders of the Wine-
bagoes engaged in the recent transactions, both at
Prairie du Chem, and in the attack on the keel-boats
returning from Fort Smelling, as we'll as security
to the persons and operations of the people of the
Mining District, on Fever river, and peace and
tranquility to our frontier inhabitants. 1t is SUBJ
ject of much qualification that the difficulties have
been settled without bloodshed.
Nothing but prompt and timely movement of
the troops from Jefferson Barracks, it is said. pre-
vented the Winnebagoes from attacking the mining
people, destroying Prairie du Chem, and making
war upon our frontier settlers These ATTEMPTS. Il
attended with partial success, would have drawn to
their aid all the dsaected of the neighboring tribes
which 1t is believed would not have been very lin
tied. Towards the end Of July there was assem-
bled on the head of Rock river some six hundred
Winnebago warriors and all the bands had secret
ed their women and children. Hostilities would
have followed Immediately had not the causes above
