coming from the official Jackson paper, seem

are brought into action TO relieve General
Jackson from the high charge Of having, Tor

and most useful public servants in the Repub.
lie.
In the Telegraph il has been frequently as
serted that our knowledge OF the facts In rela-
ton TO the alledged attempt 10 corrupt and bar
gain with General Jackson in 1925, would be
remarkable if Mr. Markey did not reside in
our vicinity; l. That it was quite clear that our
information must have come from him, and IL.

THE AMERICAN SYSTEM.


Extract OF letter 10 the editor Of the Balti.
more Patriot, dated Harrisburg, Pa. July 80 -
The National Convention was organized to-day
and elected the following gentlemen as officers
Mr.. Ri.ner, Speaker Of the House OF Represent.
atives Of Pennsylvania, President Of the Con.
ven,on, lessee Bull, Of New York, and Frisby
Tilghman, Of Maryland, Vice Presidents, Mr..
Hlas,ead, of New Jersey, and Redwood Fisher,
Of Pennsylvania, Secretaries A committee Of
two from each state, the good old number
thirteen being represented, was appointed,
to whom the Resolution of the Pennsylvania
Society was referred. The Committee may
report tomorrow, but this, think, is doubt
full. From what / can see and hear, am
induced to believe the Convention will not get
through in less than week. One thing is GER
tain, that the prognostics Of the Richmond En-
quirer and the other Jackson presses will not be
realized; nothing like politics will enter into the
proceedings Of the Convention, but ! never
thought they would, Of course am not disap.
pointed. Nothing is talked ofhcre Blu, encourag-
ing the domestic industry Of the country, to tina,
object all the energies Of the Dele gates will be
directed The Jaeksanites having Joined in
the southern policy to secure their votes for the
Hero. have refused to join in the goodly work,
and have done every thing in their power to
stigmatize the convention, but they will utterly
fail-its only object, have said before, is, to
promote the great American system; and j,
will be for the people to decide which ofthe two
great political parties tina now divide the coun'
try, is in favor or against it.

Of Judge CRAWFORD to the Grand Jury of Tai
iaferro county. Neither the style, nor the mat
ter Of the charge will yield any qualification TO
his malignant enemies;-for in the first we find
his won,ed ease and perspicuity; and in the
latter, the evidence of vigor ofin,ellect, which
will ensure an able discharge of his official du.
ties. He first maintains the right Of Grand ju.
ries 10 present as grievance any injurious and
oppressive law, and likewise, the omission Of
The Legislature 20 pass any law which the vel.
fare Of the community may require. He then
directs the attention of the jary TO the necessi-
,y of supreme judicial tribunal-ref.rs to Sc.
veraI plans of organization out sue
cinctly the advantages and disadvantages of
each, and concludes with submitting 10 the
discretion Of the jury whether they will make
any presen,ment upon the subject. Thus his
first official act is marked with solicitude for
the improvement Of the judiciary system, and
we doub, not that his future course will secure
honor 10 himself and benefit to the community.
The charge having been delivered with no view
to literary or legal display-or TO selfish os-
,ena:ion of any kind, does not "smeN of The
Lamp" but is as it should be, concise, plain,
and iorcibe.

.HoUeabte Cog Spur, or BepsI Gearing.
We have examined an improvement IN
spur or bevel gearing for mills and
other machinery, recently invented by
slr. Charles Neer, an Ingenious and
industrious mechanic of this village. for
which he has obtained a patent. The
Improvement consists in the Introduction
ot side plates of cast iron for the run of
the wheel. instead of segments of wood,
and in the manner Of fitting in and Sc
curing the cogs. For the purpose of
hxing the cogs between the plates there
are bars across the inside of the mates
increasing in width towards the verge.
so as to leave grooves Of equal width a
cross the plates for the cogs. The bars
have each a groove running throughout
their length except about one fourth Of
an inch from the verge. 10 render the
casting as light as possible. There is a
small bar across each ofthe spaces made
for the cogs a little nearer the interior
edge of the rim than the verge. A
small groove made across the edge of
the cogs embraces these bars which
keeps the cogs in their proper length
The arms are, fastened to the rim by
extending them across the side plate on
one side of the rim and boiling them by
screw bolts passing through the rim, as.
sisted by as many more as may be ne
cessary, are made to fasten the side
plates together, The cogs are when
first made Of sufficient length inside the
rim 10 aunt OF thelr beIng brought out
ward several w~earings. In case a cog
is broken pr unit for use, its place can
be supplied with another. with little or
no interruption to the mill, as these cogs
are of the same width and can be put in
and fastened. This Improvement com
bines the strength of cast iron wheels,
land by far more durahle) with the
stiffness in running, which is found in
wooden ones. There is a wheel now
finished at the shop of Petit and Neer,
machinists and millwrights are invited to
cal and examine. Two ofthese wheels
willin a few days be put in operation in
a mill at Glenn's Falls. We hesitate not
to pronounce the above a very import.
