NEW YORK A letter from Il member OF Con-
gress which yesterday, gives the most cheer
ing accounts of the Administration cause in New
York and the letter is fully corrpborated by the
Albany papers received this morning. The Sover-
egn people. denominated 1.-THE YOUNG LloN OF THE
WEST" have had many gatherings and are declar-
ing themselves must manfully for the Administra-
ton.
The friends of the administration throughout the
country have only to do their duty, their whole du-
ty, and the victory i, easy and certan--the re-
election of President Adams will be secured by a
very handsome majority-the country will thus be
restored to tranquility and our Republican form Ol
Government rendered more durable than ever.
From the U1ncheter, Virginia Republican.
The Hon. HENRY CLAY passed up the valley
last week on his way to Kentucky, for the benefit Of
his health. As his intention was to avoid all the
popuous towns on the route, he passed to the snut
of Winchester. and left the main road at Harrison
burg. AT the latter place he remained about iva
hours the Goth inst. and was Introduced TO sew
eral of the citizens. The editor # this paper hap
pened to be in Iarrsonburg at the time, and i gives
him real pleasure to state that Mr.. C.'s health has
greatly improved since the winter. Although mitch
enfeebled in body he was cheerful and animated, and
sustained conversation of upwards Of an hour in a
large company without any apparent fatigue. He iu-
tended remaining few days at the Sui phur Springs
in Greenbrier county, and will probably not reach
Kentucky before the end Of July The allegation
that his visit intended to operate the govern
ors election in that state, which takes place early in
August, is therefore entirely unfounded. Ills usu
al stages are about IS miles day He travels in q
plain. neat carriage, with two young gentlemen, in
mates of his family.

what is perhaps as probable on the other hand, may
breed that sort Of jealousy between her and Eng
iand, which may lead to serious differences. The
recall Of the British troops from Portugal is an
nounced in the Kings speech; and that Of the
French troops is in like manner promised in the
speech OF the King of France The seve-
rally given for these measures, are worthy of re-
mark. His Britannia Majesty considers the Ddc-

From the N. Y. Ameracan, March II.

There is great uneasness in the camp OF the mill
tary party at Albany-the charm is tallng--the fe-
yer is abaed--the chill succeeds-and then comes
reason, reflection and where these are Iacksonisul
cannot abide
Ii is matter of real felicitaon to the friends oil
the good cause, that the course OF things IS working
so well. The most decided expressions OF opinion
from almost the whole west is daily pouring into the
capital and men who have been rather spectators,
than actors, and content, apparently, to await the
issue of events without seeking in any manner them
selves to influence that issue, are now taking part
openly for the Administration, and zealously against
the schemes OF Mr.. Van Buren,
Every hour developes the influence, much greater
than we (who did not nevertheless, lightly estimate
the personal weight of Mr.. Clinton) anticipated
which the sudden withdrawal of the late Governor
from the scene has exercised, and is exercising,
upon men and opinions and It becomes more and
more manifest, that while Jackson was the osensibie
Iman Clinton was the real one, IN the eyes OF the
numerous and active party, that combining with
Mr. Van Buren and his friend, at the last election
determined them in the way we saw.
A friend who come from Albany within day or
lwo and whose habit il is not to see his own side in
very bright colours us, nevertheless that at
no period, for several months, have the indications
been SO clear and strong, of popular current, set
ting with more and more force in this State, in Ia
your of Mr.. Adams reelection. w est OF Albany,
liz is almost matter of ridicue to talk of Jackson
electors succeeding; and if the rest OF the State
will act for itself, as the western counties will
decide the question upon its merits--and only
award support to the qualities that will adorn and
retain ii, there will be no cause to blush for New
York.
The great difficulty of the military party now, is
TO fix upon candidate for governor-and great in
deed is their difficulty. The intimatlons thrown
out of Mr.. Van Buren, being the candidate, can
mislead no one acquainted with that individual OF
his poIcy-though they may serve as blind to the
real operations carrying on. Mr. Van Buren, Judges
himself and his pretensions too WE'LL to trust them
upon the issue Of popular election There IS a
great difference in the means necessary to influence
the votes of some two hundred thousand freemen,
and those of we'll drilled and manipulated legisa
tive body. The universal people cannot be naana-
ged--a small body may be-perhaPs-has been.
Mr.. Van Buren will not be the candidate.
Meantime the friends of the Administration are
acting with vigor and unanimity which furnish
the best presage Of ultimate success. From dit
ferent parts of the state the voice is re-echoed,
that calls for general convention-whose members
shall be exprssey delegated to declare their pre-
ference for the candidates for President, and Vice
President and to take all proper and becoming steps
towards giving effect to the nominations that shall
be made. In this course there is both strength and
victory.

--LATEST INTELLIGENCE FROM EUROPE.
Recent arrivals, bring intelligence from England
Ito the 18th Of February. The Kings speech, with
the debate in the House of Lords, tends to show that
the precipitation of hostile measures against Tur-
kew by the battle of Navarino, has not the very
cordial appreciation of either the Sovereign OF ms
present Ministry. While this circumstance may be
thought favorable to Turkey herself II may mol
eventuate SO favorably to the peace OF Europe.
Thougb Lord Ellenborough, the present Lord Privy
Seal declares his willingness to carry into effect
the treaty of the 9Th of July, he limits his pursu-
ance of Mr.. Canniugs policy to that treaty, and de-

of prostitute editors can excupate General Jackson
from the crime of extreme and unnecessary cruelty
if fran that of MURDER in the case of these men.
Ithas been seen, that an express decision of the
President, dated Jan. 8, 1914, to call out the mill

and void because. on the l1th of Jan. 1914, the
Secretary of War authorized Gov. Blount to cal

Under this head, the Paris papers are in the hab

other matter. This is rather rough caption, espe

enough to fill good size chapter. By way Of essay
let us what our papers have furnished for chap

SELECTED FROM 49,
S. John Adams [whom Mr.. Jefferson styled the
pillar of American independence endeavored to
form an union between his family and the King of
England through his son John q. Adams"
o. a note on. the above.--We find the fol-
lowing honest acknowledgment in the Chambers
burg, (Pennsylvana) Republican, decided OPP
position paper. 1t wond be well if some of his
aborers in the same vocation would take leaf out
of his book.
ssAs we never Knowingly give currency TO calu-
mny or fasehood, in any shape, no matter what may
be its origin or design, when convinced OF having
done so, ''though want of correct information" and
shall not hesitate to make the necessary atonement
by acknowledging our error, and thus counteract
any effect that might have followed its circulation.
The operation OF tins rule, renders it necessary for
us TO stae that the circumstance" noticed in this
paper OF the 26th ult, respecting an alleged pro-
position of old John Adams TO $ form union be-
tween his family and the King Of England" through
his J. q. is greater perverson Of truth than
any man, having due respect for his own charac-
Ter, would deliberately become guilty of. Refer.
ence is made for the original notice Of the story, TO
'Graydons Memoirs where, instead of filming il
given as an historical fact, it is spoken Of as mon
strous fabrication The Deta1oare Watchman has
the credit of making this circumstance more gen
orally known, and we call upon him either to ac
knowledge that he has been imposed on, or that he
is himself chargeable with having led many Of h
brethern into error.
