JACKSON POLICY.

Of the Washington managers, calculating on
the simplicity and single mindedness OF the
honest German population in The back part o!
| Pennsylvania, wrote letter, of which trans
la,ion is given below, and caused il TO be pub
lished in he Democrat, a paper printed at
Reading, in the German language. They cal
culated probably that it would he swallowed

those parts, who, il is SAID, cannot yet realize
that Gen Burgoyne was ever captured. lhfy
also supposed no doubt, that the German paper
would not fall into the hands Of any persons
likely 10 expose the mapGuvre. The precious
document has, however, been bloughl into light;
and is as follows:
Extract of letter from Washington to friend at
Reading, Literally translated)

write to you, ! Inform you at present Of some.
thing like news, which, as think, is my duty
to you and 10 The people al large. Two coach
es arrived three days ago in the city Of Wash
ington, with seven passengers, they arrived be-
lore the Presidency-ihry were received very
civly, and complimenied into the House,
whilst the servants were engaged to carry into
the house four chests, which appeared 10 be We.
ry heavy. This altrao ted the attention Of
number Of Ci,iZens--one of the drivers being
asked what was contained in the chests, an.
swered, SILVER DOLLARS, excepting one, which
WAS fell OF ba k notes; the driver answered on
The farther question, whence these gentlemen
were coming, "from England; they were arri-
we'd at Baltimore few days ago." The driver
related in q further conversation; that his mas
ter had ordered him 10 lake good care Of these
chests, as they contained 8 100000 each. These
circumstances caused great excitement in the
mind Of the people, and the inhabitants Of the
city were anxious to know the true intention Of
bringing so large sum Of money owe: from
England. They reflected mucL on the matter,
ana concluded at last the money was destined
for supporting the reelection of ]. Q. Adams.
As matters now stand we are sure that The cleo |
ton Of Gen. Jackson is quite certain, provided
that this money has not more powerful effect
than think i: can have; for do not believe
that British silver has the power 10 corrupt
ireeborn Americans. In short time shall
give you furhe information about these exci,-
ing circumstances. Inform our friends OF these
eveDts-let them be on their watch, and let il |
be remembered, tina. in the hour Of danger Ge-
neral Jackson fought our battles for us, and
that we will protect him against all British
kings, mobiles and tories.
The following jet d'esprH is from the New
Hampshire Statesman. II is one Of the happi-
est illustrations OF Gen. Jackson's claims for
the chief magisraoy tina. we have seen:
will now, Mr.. Editor give you few GU; of
e thousand reasons why this Adams should be
ousted, and bold Jackson boosted into his place.
Adams is Yankee. A president should no,
have honor in his own coun,ry-iar fetched
and dear bought ar, the goods for us-so we
will have no Yankee. Adams can'r fight. He
will loose many fir occasion to go TO war,
jus, because he couIi not fgh, if We had one
and our nation wou6 SO sneaking like Quak
ers, al peace with al the world and we shall
enjoy wars for aibther generation where's
as, # Old Hickory we're President, he'd put
his fist in their faces and we should have gio-
rious wars; aud here IN New Hampshire, we
could have enacted oier abain, the farce OF the ,
Six Militia men,, AM he would show our little
town of Portsmouth, and perhaps Concord, the
way to resolve themselves into camps, and come d
under martial law. Adams does not hold $50 {
