THE TRICKS OF THE OPPOSITION.

The Jackson paper in Washington, we are told,
is busy producing the edition of $4,000 copies of
Mr. Hamlton's eiectioneer,ng Report on Retrench-
ment. Every conspicuous Herolte is to be furnish
ed with one, as handbook for lying, and an APP
propriate companion to the differences or oaths of
kremer Moore Wicklt1e, Obadiah B. Broa'n & Co.
Of course in accordance with the plan of the Tell
lie party, the counter report of the minority,
Messrs. Sergeant and Everett IS carefully excluded
from this edition. The Jacksones are to be gull
led with one side of the question:; and the same
trick played off on the unsuspecng credullty fthe
people at distance, that was practised in the case
of the Militia Documents where the report, or
opinion, OF the white washing committee, got up by
this same Mr.. Hamilton, is substituted for the Off
cial record of the trial of the six militia men, 1t
shall be our business however, to endeavor to take
time by the torelock, and to commence next week
to publish the calm andimpartiai statement submit

which we request all friends, and all those who

The Times.-It is an undoubted fact that
the times are getting better, and that in New
York money is beginning to circulate with
more fredom-And the reasons are obvious.
No great remittances to England are making
for goods for the fall sales. The importation
exceeds at present by many thousand packages
what it was up to the same period last year.
The high premium for bills has begun TO draw
specie from the Spanish main, and even from
Europe, into our ports. Produce maintains a
healthy rate, and cotton is getting up TO the
prices Of 1924. Stocks are rising daily, as
may be seen by the quotations. Now what is
there to prevent a reaction to the late pres

late their bills without fear Of drain. Real

Porter. This is made from high-drIed malt,
and differs from other malt liquors in the pro-
portions Of its ingredients, and from the pscu-
liar manner in which it is manufa ctured. Much
has been said upon the fraudulent adulteration
Of this article but am inclnhd to believe.
that these statements have been exaggerated.
II is, at all events, certain, that such sdulter-
ations are not carried on in the caldrons of
the brewer. but in the barrels Of the publican.
The origin Of beer called entire, is to be thus
explained Before the year 1880, the malt
liquors in general use in London were ale,
beer, and two-penny and IL was customary
to call for pint, or tankard, or half-and hall,
1. e. half Of ale and half Of beer, half Of ale
and half Of two-penny. In course Of time It
also became the practice to call for a pint or
tankard Of three-ihveads, meaning th,rd of
ale, bear, and two-penny and thus the pub
lican had the trouble TO 90 to three cocks,
for pint Of liquor. To avoid this inconven-
ience and waste. a brewer, OF the name Of
Harwood, conceived the idea Of making a liq-
uor which should partake Of the same uni
ted Havours Of ale, beer, and two-penny. He
did %, and succeeded, calling il entire. or

his former productions into oblivion. We agree
with the gentleman that the Washington is a
delightful boat. and that Captain Comst ock is
every thing that he would wish to make him;
but we cannot admit that the Chancellor Liv-
ingston is IN any way inferior to the Washing
ton. or that Captain Coggeshull is not as good
commander as Captain Comstock. Both are
elegant boats, and equally worthy Of patron

An editor in one of the county, towns in the
Western States, makes a most strange apology
FOR the non-aPpearance OF his paper, on the
regular day of publication, which we give in
his own words:
"I feel ashamed to own the fact, but {" mur-
der will out" The plain reason was, my
readers, that my dear wife said must stoy at
home and take care of the children, tphile
she went to Camp Meeting, and as am q
peace making sort Of a man ! did as was
bid. which Is the only apology I nave to
make"
Alas, poor Editors! Work night and day
be scolded at by every body-prosecuted for
libels-cballensed to fight duols, and finally
take care Of the children. This is too much!

THE CASE OF JOHN WooDs.- We offtr no
apology to our readers, for occupying SO large
space in this days paper, IN detailing the
condemnation and execution of this unfori una 10
young man. We recommend the article to the
attentive perusal Of the friends Of the Military
Chioftain in this vicinity. and ask them with
candor and sincerity, il they will still continue
to justify or palliate the conduct Of their ia
verite IN this bloody affair. The writer Of the
article, DR.. ARMSTRONG, makes no assertions
without the strongest proof to sustain them.
and consequently, every part Of his statement
is entitled to the confidence Of tho public.
10 be found, in tho United States, (if he
would lay aside party feelings and personal at
tachmcnt) who would. after perusing the de-
tails of this horrid execution, venture to assert
that Gen. Jackson was a suitable person to
hold the highest Office in the world, that Of
President Of tho United States. But il is a
lamontable fact, that the great body of the
partizans' Of Gen. Jackson, have become so
blinded by party zeal, thA; they appear TO be
entirely regardless Of the precepts Of truth and
csndor, and resort 10 every species Of false
hood and sandcr, to sustain their sinking cause,
and consequently, we cannot expect to have
thom express sentiment or feeling which
would not answer party purposes.
1t will be recollcctcd, that in the first article
wo published on this subject. it was stated
that Col. JOHN WILLIAMS, was Judge Advo-
cato at the trial of Woods, which was an error,
rs will be seen by the following letter, from
that gentleman, dated at KonxvilIe. April II:
-" was neither President, Judge Advocate,
nor member Of the Court Martial that condemn
ed Woods 10 die; nor did ever refuse to re-
commend him to mercy. No application was
made to me on the subject. neither saw nor
heard the evidence upon which he was found
guilty. After the execution Of Woods, much
was said in camp, in relation to the offence
which he had committed. 1t was said by
some, that he had been shot for an afffont to
certain Thomas Camp, who had neither
rank nor commission in tho army. I never
knew whether Mr.. Camp was n commissioned
officer or not. If ho was, there must be a
record Of bis commission. II he was not, it
was illegal to shoot Woods for insulting him.
The true state of this affair viii! appear by pub
fishing the proceedings Of the Court Martial,
and Mr.. Camps commission, if he had one.
" 1t is not true that Woods, on the ground OF
execution. with oaths and defiance, refused to
promise obedience. ON THE CONTRARY,
HE WEPT LOUD AND BITTERLY"

The line which he draws between the differ

General Jackson's friend may attempt to con.
ceal it:
"This country is divided INTO two parties,
the friends and the enemies of the American
system This constitutes the true ground Of
difference between them. They are nearly
equally divided - the struggle will be hard land
a long one. The South contend that it is Nm
constitutional! to project home munufa ctures
and to promote internal improvements, and in
sist that We should depend on Old England to
supply our wants. The other party resists this
doctrine, and contends in favor Of our own
country and our own industry. The enemies
Of the American System as a party, have
taken up Gen. Jackson and John C. Calhoun,
and the other party support Mr.. adams and
Mr. Rush. There will of course be a few
scattering votes on both sides, as there al
ways are Such, however, you may rely up
