already licked the dust from the very feet which

These men have sta'ted themselves upon the ha-
gard of the debut they have become sensible of
The waning fortunes Of the present Administration
They have tried every little art keep them afloat

mighty currcnt but some ard signal delusOn
got up with consummaie arr, and pOpagacd with
inIeidtigabIe zeal. These Editors persuade them
selves tlu; sic moment has when they are to
wave She magic wand. They have raised the
fiery OF plots OF OisuuiCn TO the South-they AZ
crbe these plots TO the jackson party, and they
appeal 10 the people whether they will resort to

placed at the head OF affairs. No, Sirs, your pre-
sent plot will no more answer your purposes than
your plots OF last year. The friends Of Jackson
who are not the immediate theatre oi action 10
the South, dsapprove and reprobate the impas-
stoned language OF the citizens OF Colcton, and
the violent paragraphs which occasionally appear
IN he prints of s. Carolina. They will receive no
coun;enanee IN ~ "a ciina and virginia ard We

in this one respect we happen to agree in o.
pinon with the National IntelIigencer--'' For
ourselves, tce here, I've TcdIiiy no apprehension o
the gathering elements in the Southern horizon
We have an entire reliance IN the good sense is

But if they 10 "rcalily had no such fears why
10 they affect TO throw themselves into such ex-
tastes OF rhodOmOntade, as the following: "Thi-
