PAINE's BIRTH DAY. An assemblage of
gentleman was cole cted at Washington Hall,
New York, on the 29th ult, 10 celebrate the
birth day of Thomas Paine. There would no;
have been any thing il this. strictly objection
able, had the gentleman in thar toasts and
sentiments, confined themselves to Mr.. Paine, :
political opinions. We are sorry however, to
say, that they thought proper. to applaud his
theological writings. Among the toasts we
find the following.
'"THoMAs PAINE. We meet to prospect
his memory, and to extend his principles"
We would ask, what principles they alluded
to. n they meant his political principles, we
GO with them hand in hand, for Paine. proba-

General Jackson won The hattie of New-Or-
leans on the 9Th January, 1875. and gained
for himself much glory; but subsequently, to
the third Of March following a period of sixty
eight days after the date ofth treaty ofpeace 9,
and actually after the news Of that peace had
been communicated to him, he played the ty-
rant by imprisoning a patriotic member Of the
legislature, q Judge, and the district attorney
for the mere performance Of their constitution
al duties. General Jackson also won the bat
tie Of the Horse Shoe, but we cannot help re-
membering that the defenceless Indians who
were found the next day in their hiding places,
were murdered in cold blood.

THE CASE OF MILLER.--The New-York
papers have engaea &c IN q d~isreputable contro-
versy, respecting the case of Miller. who was
found guilty of the crime Of murder. at the
last New-York Sessions, and sentenced to be
executed on tho 10Th Of January, and respiied,
indefinitely. by Judge Edwards. and The Dis
trict Attorney, Subject to the decision of Gov
ernor Clinton. The Statesman, according to
is own language. is IND ignsnt. because the
poor follow was not executed, and seems TO pant
for bis'blood. The controversy is discreditable
to the New-Ycrk press, and since the editor
Of tho Statesman, is so anxious TO have enc Of
those interssing fetes, a public execution, we
Fscommend, that no set an example, for the
benefit Of society. by slipping his own neck in
to the moose, which was intended for poor Mil

We beg leave to invite the pious reader to a
perusal Of the poem on our last page entitled
'"The Camp Meeting" 1t is descriptive of
one of those religious festivals, which are OBJ
served BY that numerous, and very respectable
class Of religionists, the Methodist. The do
s%cription of the venerable preacher is drawn to
to the very life-it is a faithful picture Of one
Of the sincere and devout followers Of the
Holy Son Of Nazareth. Although, we do not
advocate, or dcprecats the observance ofthese
festivals. we have enjoyed a rich treat. whilst
perusing the poem.

Er-Presidents Madison and .Monyoe.-It
it 10 now more than four weeks, since these
two distinguished patriots, were nominated by
the Virginia Administrator Convention, for
electors Of President and Vice President Of the
United States. at the next election, and moth

ination made by that distinguished body, The
opposition asserted that they would both de-
cline, when is was known to them that their
names had been used. We presume that II
they had intended to decline, it would have
been made public before this time.
