A FORMER SUPPORTER OF
JACKSON,

We do not reculect ever to have seen more satis-
factory and conclusive reasons tor abandoning the
cause of General Jackson, than will be found below
in the letter Of George Washington Broa0n OF Union
Town, Pennsylvania. We DEFY any one 70 read
them with an unprejudiced mind, cool head, and
patriotic discrimination without yielding to the cor
rectness and force of the reasons assigned by nm
for quitting the ranks of the Military Chiettaln.
Mr. Brown has indeed fulfilled the obligations oil
duty to his country, by recedng from the advocacy
of the election of an individual, whose past lie ana
deeds have been SO marked by acts 81 rashness'
cruelty and tyranny.
Mr. Brown very Justly observes that ne was IN
duced to espouse the cause OF General JACKSON, oe
cause of the true character of Mr. Adams IN loS4'
! he knew but little" and the fame OF Gen; JACK
son had spread suddenly over the union, ana " tae
history of his life, like the hours told by the sun-di-
al, we're only the bright ones Of the day. such
indeed was eInphatcally the case during the pen
dencv If the former canvass. With the exception
of the pamphlet Of Jesse Benton, Esq. the Craw-
ford electoral candidate in Nashville, and some lew
fugtive pieces nothing was said in dspra'se OF Gen
jackson. Even his political opponents were tender
of his reputation. This feeling arose from TWO causes
the first that he was never looked upon as serious
rival, it being generally understood tnat ne was
brought out to destroy Mr. Crawford prospects ~
the South, and secondly, because nearly every one
felt renupnapce arising from gratitude for his ser.

Sir,-You rank, and believe very Justly, among
the most intelligent of the Original jackson men 10

induced you to prefer the General, have never
heard but venture to affirm that you are not, at
this time, as we'll satisfied with the jackson side OF
the contest as you have been.
Since you took Sides in this matter there nave
been various developments of the Generals CHAR
acter and conduct, well as those OF the Aam'n's-
traton, which could not have operated IN the for
nation of your opinion. The ordinances in Fior-
da; the Silas Dnsmore affair the negro trading as
exhibited by A. Erwin, B. Marry, and W. Ianne-
hill the connexion with Burr, sc. &c. were, per-
haps, as little known to you, and as unexpected as
the yery able, upright, and economical admnlstra-
ton of our affairs. In word, time has presented
to YOU the characters and conduct of the General
and of the present Administration in very different
lights from what they appeared originally.
But, | imagine the most powerful causes that hat

called the Jackson party, are somewhat different

We do not think that credit is to be given to the

is proper to add that the Turkish ortresses on the

In France, il will be seen, law regulating the
