Spirit or JAcKSoNIsM. We have never
had cause to fear so much tho mischief Gen.
Jackson would do, provided he should be
elected our next President, as We have to
shudder at the spirit manifested by those who
would elect him. Never has this country .from
its independence, to the present day. expert
snced political mania so deadly and fearful
among its citizens; and one which wiihal pre-
sents moro threatening appearance. Few
papers come to hand, from those sections Of
the Union, where Jacksonism prevails, but
contain accounts Of violence and outrage from
tho hand, of its infuria,ed votaries. II wo may
credit tho reports which daily arrive, aud We
believe them generally we'll au,hon, icated,
there ], now not place in the Union where
General Jackson's ranks arc not fast diminish
Ing. In Tennessee and the Southern States,
in Kentucky, Pennsylvania and New York ,wo
hear Of the general and well attended meet
inys Of the friends Of the Administration. II
is this Circumstance which has melted the
Jacksoniana, in the true spirit Of their leader,
to he guilty Of cnormities and crimes in do
han"A '.f tho law. Citzens,who under the hon
est aconvicion that IL; !!cy have csPoasod..a wrong
side Of tho question, in supporting the military
claims ofthc chiehain, and have manifested
their intention TO support the Administration,
are assailed by Jdcksonians, with brutal vic
lence and publicly beaten in the streets. An
instance ofthis kind has very recently occurred
nmong other outrages Of still deeper dye
Tho house Of Judge Williams. of Tennessee,
was bcset IN the night, by about three hundred
men, armed with hickory clu5s, because of tho
Tate exposure made by tho lodge Of the con.
noction between Burr and Jackson; aud the
most villainolls insults offered. The Office of
tho Cincinnati Crisis and Emporium was brok-
en- open on tho night Of the 10Th ult. and sew
oral materials were destroyed and stolen. The
Crisis is an Administration paper, and it was
ascsrtained that several handbills were about
to be issued from the Office, exposing some Of
Tire hign handed acts Of General Jackson
These, however, arc but a fow instances Of
villainy md outrage. II would be superiluous
10 refer 10 the assaults of Duff Greene, Russell!
5arvis, George Krcmcr. and others. The
principles upon which General Jickson's
friends have acted and mean to act, are now
too palpablo TO admit Of question:; and they do
mot themselves pretend to disavow them. In
tl,is one thing, let it be said 10 their credit,
they are consistent. The course which their
c,n1dats has ever pursued to accomplish his
purposes ia Of tine same stamp and character.
IN .he execution OF this last entcrprzc.i it would
be extraordinary if he should lay it aside for
any other.

At the upper end of York street, says the
Savannah Georgian, there are two Albinos,
natives of this city; the one being about 10
years old, and the other or 6. The parents
are perfectly black, and have four other chill
dren Of as deep color as themselves; one Of
whom is intermediate, with respect to age, be-
tween the subjects Of these remarks. They
have light hair, resembling lambs wool-blue-
ish cyes-and very delicate complexion though
the whitencss IS rather Of the cast that belongs
to dead body than living one. Their eyes
are weaker than those Of any other variety OF
man, in this section Of country; but, by moon
light, they see as well as other persons com.
monty do in the brightness Of daylight.
Button, Saussurc, and Blumenbach, have,
each of them, attempted n solution (of this
phenomenon; but in neither instance. in our
opinion, it is satisfa C, orly accounted for. The
latter says that il is generally observed in all
warm booded animals, but, that he has new
er seen it exhibited in those with cold blood.
The mother Of these children had also q
brother and sister born Albnos; who, with
herself, were natives Of Savannah: sbo now
belongs to a Mr. Zettler, Of Efingham Coun.
ty in Gcorgia.
