The statement Of Judge williams. fully con-
firms the following facts:
Ist. That General Jackson was on the most
intimate terms and footing with Aaron Burr.
during the fall Of 1906 and winter Of 1907.
when the latter was engaged in prosecuting his
reasonable scheme Of dividing the Union.
2dly. That General Jackson we'll knew the
busnc,s on which Burr then was, while he
was harbouring him in his house and introduce
ing him to his aoquaintances. and was himself
engaged as his agent to procure officers and
recruits to furnisl, his army.
3dly. That he intended to Join the army him
self and a.sis, Burr in effccting his scheme, and
was probably to be a large sharor in the spoils
Of tho dsjoin,ed confcderacy.
"If General Jackson can purify himself from
this impuiaton Of guilt he can cxpunge this
dark spot from his cscut cheon, lie mus, do il =,
or sink now and forever. If all tre admitted
splendor of Burr's intellect could not dazzle the
-sigMcdness Of public opinion, and all the
power of his genius could not sustain him above
the moral gnominy which the popular sentence
pronounced upon him, how can General Jack.
son, vastly inferior in mind and requirement,
hope not merely to escape similar ignominy,
but so.far to infatuato the public judgment as
10 obtain from it the highest reward which can
be given even to unsullicd, unsuspectod virtue
and patriotism?"
1t is now too late to talk longer upon Y Bar
gain and Sale" Let the Jacksonians first
wipe away the foul stain from the garments of
their hero, before they appear again in the ca
pacity Of accusers, against those on whom, for
three years, they have been Inboring in vain to
fix the charge Of corrupt management.
On Judge Williams we are to expect the most
vile and scurrous orprobriums will be lavi.bed
by the advocates Of Jackson, if they continue
to pursue the course they have hitherto follow
cd: but this cannot serve them in the present
difficulty, for the people have already become
sickened with such unmerited vIiupsration, and
in tho eyes of the candid and rcfecting il will
answer only to injuro their own cause.

CoNsTANTINoPLE.-Th city was founded
A. d. 32S by Constantine, as is generally
known from whom il received its name, just
fifteen hundred years ago. 1t sustained a
scige Of eight successive years from the Per-
slams under the command Of the celebrated
Ckasroes. but was saved by the management
Of the intrepid Heraclius. From the time it
was founded until $50, il stood five long and
terrible seiges against the Sarac Gems and 9TH
crs. without being taken. Baldwin, Earl OF
Flanders took the city by storm in 1904,
whereupon he was proclaimed Emperor of the
East. He and his successors kept possession
Of it 5s years when it was rctaken by the
Greeks. In 1853 the far famed and victorious
Mahomet II. stormed Consa antnopc and en-
tered it sword in hand with dreadful slaughter
The Turks have continued in possession of it
ever since.

" The Idle Hind S-S pne,Imo ticu. -

" The Idle Wind"-" Pneuma aticus " has
again appeared in tho columns Of tho Journal,
not quite so clustering as at first, but sends
forth sound, something in accordance with
the plant Of the Eolan harp. Ho continues
TO talk wisely and lcanedly about tho "spc-
cifc gravity" Of mir and water, a subject bye
tho bye, which he has hitherto had all to him
self, Us no one else has made any allusion 10
il. We did venture to intimate that air, when
confined in water, possessed a strong propensi-
ty to escape at the surface and carry with it,
in its effort. whatever substances chanced TO
fall in its way, provided said substances were
not too heavy to be overcome. If the writer
does not understand tho difference between
the doctrine Of specific gravity and motion, il
is certainly time that We take hi, advice, and
" give 1t up that is, the attempt to con-
vince him Of what every noodle knows. Let
him place an egg in vessel Of water-it will
sink; but let him insert the nose Of a bellows
into the water and force in a small quantity of
air, and the egg will rise to the smra &C and re-
main there, till all the air shall have escaped.
We yesterday saw a trial of this experiment,
which conclusively demonstrates what we be-
fore limited at. Though air be aud much
lighter than water, yet when in rapid motion
it is by no means unfreqnently the case that
It carries with it substances much lie avior than
either Such is always the case when il is un-
naturally confined and compressed, by which
philosophers have accounted for earthquakes.
We now take leave Of the learned Pneu-
maHew, and give him ample opportunity to
descnnt on specific gravity, at his leisure, ten
derng our services at all times, to point on, to
hun the proper mode Of discriminating between
a"sky high" bio,D up, ard sufficient specific
gravity Of intellect TO keep him in contact with

the real cause Of this pauci'y Of numbers was
