for truth and to be guided by its sacred maxlms, can
ro,d the debates in Congress, on the retrenchneut
resolutions of Mr.. Chiffon, of Kentucky, without

respectable of the supporters OF Gen. 9acksoh' az
Lpo,yledped in substance, in the course OF the de-
bate. that the accusations brought against the aulh
istraon of corruption, we're without iouhoatoh-
and that neither Mr.. Clay or Mr.. Adams were per-

had neither been multiplied in number, nor the en-

With these views of the subject, and having a

The painful duty devolves upon us of announc-
ing the decease Of Major General JACOB BROWN.
Commander in Chief of the Army of the United
States. He expired at his residence in this city,
yesterday, after brief illness of three or four
days, preceded by general indsposition of longer
duration.
His name is too intimately interviewer with the.
history of his country, to uake it necessary for us
to accompany this annuncation with any reference
TO his public life or services. His individual merits
are too universally appreciated to need to be bla-
zoned by the pen of eulogy. AT future day we
shall endeavor to do justice to his eminent desert
as soldier and citizen, and to hold up to his fell
lowcitizens, in their proper colors, the example Of
his ustrious deeds and his blameless and virtuous
private life.
fs1- The Funeral of our deceased friend will not
take place, we learn before Wednesday so that
every opportunity will be afforded to pay due honors
Ito his remains.

From Kentucky it appears that the Jackson In
QUESTION has had most farcical termlnation-eno-
ing IN the disgrace of those who instituted It. Inc
consequence was that, in the Senate, where this
farce was acted, the resolutions in favor OF the Ad-
ministration passed by large majority"
There was great difficulty in keeping order in the

the repeated defeats and modification OF the prose

but appropriate address Nothing OF moment was
transacted in Assembly.
Public Spirit-By the legislative intelligence in
ast evenings paper it will have been seen that bill
has been promptly ntoduced to allow the minor
heirs of Gov. Clinton, the salary which would have
accrued to their lamented father as Governor Tor the
current year; and also making provision Tor the
pa me at of the salary to which the Governor was
|e urably entitled as member and President Ut the
Board Of Canal Commissioners. The bill intro
ducgd for the purposes above mentioned, IS praise
worthy, and honourabe to the feelings of those who
have brought it forward
