Whereas we feel it our duty, as we'll as our
happy privilege, to unite in an expression OF our
feelings upon the important question which IS now
asita.ing the people ot this repubiIc-ahu our
pleasure upon this occasion is doubly increased
when we are aware that we are lending our aid in
behalf of the support of the purity Of our repuo-
lican government-and the destruction OF Goa
litnn aspiring to self nomination and monopoly,
and to the annihlation Of TIE vital part ct our
republican ediice, the purity Of elections. Actu-

JACKSON MEETINGS.
ST. GE0RGES' HUNDRED.

At numerous and respectable meeting of the
friends uf Az 'r:w Jackson, assembled at the Trap
in st. Georges Hundred, according to appoint.
ment, when John Reynolds, was called to the
chair, and Charles II. Haaghey and a. H. Pen
aington, Secretaries. The object of the meeting
being stated, the following preamble and resouu
ons were offered and adopted.
Prompted by sense of duty, and the natural
feelings we enjoy, to express our feelings on thr
great political contest which agitates our country,
and to unite our energies in support of the man,
we deem 80 highly qualified, and by right should
possess, the first office in the gtt of free, but in
Jured peolle.
And, convinced Of the corruption used to force
the present rulers into power. BY few office as
prants, whose sole object has been their own ele
vatlon, under the semblance of patriotism.
The manifestation Of charges against the ADM
nlstration. are not only proven by the strong and
increasing opposition to its corrupt and proscrip-
tive measu cs--the prostitution OF its presses
the unneccs tary waste OF public money-upon hir.
ed emssar les for the work of defamation. But
the neglect of public duties, while engaged in E.
lectoneerrl~ tours to deceive and int1ame.--'rhe
circulation Of the most infamous 4 libelIous charg
es against Dne of the greatest, and best OF men:
Andrew Jackson, the peoples choice.
The charges so liberay made and circulated-
(though as often ably and clearly refuted) have
not only b,en published and sent abroad IN spurl'
Gus handbills, but as lmpiousy reiterated under
the sanctty Of the most solemn and delberative
conventions.
The bold and dictatorial manner in which the
Coalition have dispensed their patronage, is mass
OF evidence, of the impurity Of their motives and
aspiring disposition for regal power.
The undue and unnecessary increase OF public
officers by the same party, is equally source ol
Just dissatisfaction and public Indignation.
The bareiaced and eectioneering intrigue used
.oretan the ill-gotten power, is call upon vir.
'uous people, to crush. by bold and manly effort
every attempt, to rivet on race OF freeinen an
hereditary line OF succession.
ihe present contest, we view with no ordinary
concern. 1t is one between the rulers and the peo
PIE. An opposition against the most daring and
'mPlous attempts, to usurp, and retain in office
men, elevated by the perversion Of our plaines'
Delaware patriot & American watchman., 1828-08-26

den cii.cns, jealous Of OF. liberties, it is oar dn-
ty to oppose the beginning ct ev-to support no
administration, the manner of whose origin s
subversve of our rights as citizens of this republic
Resoired. That we consider the immediate
annhaton Of Mr.. Clay's "safe precedent"
principle. and the remorat Of the present incum-
bent at Washington. as the only eHectual prevent.
ative to the destruction of our republican edifce.
Resolved, That having the most implicit conf
'ience in the patriotism. intelligence, integrity and
republican princp Plies Of Gen. .Andrpw Jackson
who has ever and under all administrations, save
the present, been found worthy OF his ccuntry's
confidence, and honored with his country's smiles
and appreciation. We will pledge our fair and ho
noralie exertians. to elevate him to the Office Of
President of the United States.

nomination nf John G.. Calhoun for Vice President

THE COAT AND THE PILLOW.

1t CHANGED that the coat Of a very fine fellow
Was thrown on the bed, and lay close to his pillow
With that ease which high company gives, for the
coat
Had been much in the world and in circles of note
Friend pillow, said he, why that look of distress?
BY your rlmpled condition. You we slept i'll guess
Or, perhaps that your master is gone you sorry
tHe Is very fine fellow if so l feel for We;
/ m always delighted to go where he goes,
And mix in the mirth which around him he throws
Gay, wealthy, and witty, and wanton, and young,
Made for conquest his form, and persuasion his
tongue;
On whom nature her presents so lavishly showers
What mortal SO blest as this master of ours.
II would delight you to see with what graceful
composure
He throws down his guineas or stakes an enclosure
T. other night, It was at whist, that Sir Somebody
Numbered,
And lost him, think, twas not less than hun
dred:
To see him, my friend,you d conclude he had won,
Such easy, good tempered, sweet smile he put on,
What with dancing, and singing, and laughing, and
drinking
You d wonder what time he had left him for think
ing:
If he wins, if he loses, he's glad and still glad
cannot believe he knows how to be sad
With such mental control, and mind so at ease,
Sure never was found man formed so to please.
And now, says the pillow, it's my turn to speak,
If let you alone you'll go on for q week
Since you say that with you he's light as feather
Pray keep him, or come to bed always together
For the moment you RE off such trade then COM
mences
You'd think he was fairly bereft of his senses
Such complaining such sorrow repentance and hate
Such cursing his fortune and damning his fate,
That, taking in bedlam there is not in town
A pillow whose state I'd not change for my own
The night that Sir Somebody lost him hundred
As soon as he laid himself down, how he Numbered
] never was in such fright in my life
He could not worse treat me if were his wife.
Then such knocking and humping, and squeezing,
but still
can't give content, do whatever viii
TIC complete my misfortune, sometimes in sally
He throws me as hard as he can at his valet,
Who ventures to give him his scurvy advice,
To have nothing to do with those villainous dice.
Tother night he declared he would do it for himself
And took down pistol which lay on the shelf;
But after he held if sometime to his head
He thought better ont and thumpd me in its stead.
If this is the way with your very fine fellows,
IweEe better be any thing else than their pillows

ADVICE TO THE YOUNG LADIES


BY JAMES RoGG.
She that giveth heart away,
For the homage ola day,
To downy dimplng chin,
Smile that tells the void within
Staggering gait, and stays of steel;
Saucy head and sounding heel
Gives the gift Of wo and weeping;
Gives thing not worth the keeping,
Gives trIhe-gives toy;
Sweetest Yiands soonest cloy.
Gains! Good lord what doth she gain
Years of sorrow and of pain;
Cold neglect and words unkind;
Qualms Of body and of mind;
Gains the curse that leaves her never;
Gains the pang that lasts forever.
And why All hath not reason shown it +?
Though the heart dares hardly own it;
Well it traces love to be
The fruit of the forbidden tree,
Ofwoman's wo the origin;
The apple of The primal sin;
The test Of that angelic creature,
The touchstone Of her human nature;
Which proved her, though of heavenly birth,
An erring meteor Of the earth.
