9J-When President Adams passed through
town, on his return to Washington, he acci
dentally left his pocket book at the room he
occupied at the franklin House, which was
returned to him through Capt. CoggshalI, after
the steam boat left the wharf, by Mr.. DowNER
the bar keeper. Mr.. Adams did not know at
the time who the person was that returned the
property, but after his arrival at Washington,
and ascertainlng the circumstances, he for
warded 20 dollars to Mr. Burgess, TO be pre-
sented to Mr.. Downer.

U-PENNsYLvANIA. The editor Of the
American, in his paper Of yesterday, aftel
noticing the election Of Jackson Inspe ctors in
tho city of Philadelphia, says:
"We are surprised to sec that this result ap.
pears to discourage some Of the friends Of the
administration, while the Jacksonians exult as
though they had gained a state. No prudent
administration man, would for moment place
any dependence on the vote Of Pennsylvania
The chances have always been three to ono
against US in that state, and as her choice OF
electors is the first made, disappointment in
the result would have a serious tendency 10
dishearten the friends of the present order OF
things. The false hopes held out by tho plaus-
ibe Mr.. Binns, has mised a great many friends
of the administration in other states to expect
the vote Of Pennsylvania. The result in Phil
adelpha, where, if any where in the state,
Adams is preferred, shows how little depend
ence is to be placed on the vote of the whole
state. We have uniformly said Pcnnsy sylvania
would 60 against us. Her vote is not neces-
sary 10 the election Of Mr.. Adams which can
be secured without it,
On tho same page that the above was pub
lished. we find the following:
"The Philadelphia Gazette gives returns from
20 towns and boroughs, ,l6 of which have elect
cd Administration Inspe ctors, by an aggregate
majority of about 600 votes. In Bucks coun-
ty (Mr. Ingraham's dis,ric,) the admins,ra-
ton majorlty will be over 1900. In Doyls-
town, in that county, where there was 80
Jackson majority last year, the administration
has gained so votes"
1t strikes us very forcibly tina: if Mr.. Hal
lett intended TO impress his readers with an
idea that no prudent administration man
would for moment place any dependence on
the vote of Pennsylvania" he should have
omitted the last article, quoted above. The
"false hopes held out by Mr.. BINNs" we have
never seen. That gentleman has always con-
tended that great reaction vas moving in
favor Of Mr.. Adams reelection; and the very
article quoted by Mr.. Halett, from the Phil
adelpha Gazette, shows conclusively that Mr..
Binns has not been mistaken.
We have said, and it was our candid and un-
BIASED opinion, that Mr.. Adams would eceive
the electoral votes of the state of Pennsylva-
mia; and we have not, as yet, seen any circum-
stances to alter that opinion. The interest of
Pennsylvania is too nearly connected with the
permanent adoption of the American System,
to elect man to the Presidency whose lead
ing partzans boast that on h,s elevation their
hopes of repeating the Protection Laws and
consequently sacrificing the cause Of Domestic
Industry, depends. She cannot under these cir
cunnstances, vote for Gen. Jackson.

two exceptions. all the friends Of Jackson presen
voted in the same way.
| Mr.. Mallary, chairman Of the Committee, ant
Mr. Condict, both Of whom voted for the bill c
the last session. went against the resolution. Mr.
Moore and Mr.. Stevenson, both Of whom vo,et
against the bill OF the last session and all the Jack
son members from Pennsylvania voted With Viz.
gna. South Carolina and Georgia, in favor OF the
! resolution.
We wish II to be borne in mind that the propo.
sltlon originated with an asowed opponent TO the
encouragement OF manufactures by Tariff, and
that 1t was unanimously sustained by the Represen.
talives OF those States from which emana,ed the
violent anti. Tariff Reports and Resolutions which
we laid before our readers during the last week.
1t was supported by the very men who deny the
power OF Congress to impose protecting duties.
1t Is asking too much Of US, therefore, to require
our belief to the statement, that its object is TO OBJ
tain Information as to the particular articles which
require protection. and the quantum Of protection
which is desirable.
The Jackson men of the West and the North
have identified themselves by their vote on this
resolution, with the Southern Representative and
should be doomed to disappointment; they will
hereafter be at no loss to know where to fix the
blame.
We have the promise of certain members OF
the Committee. that delay shall take place, but
that bill shall be forthwith reported. What,
will the members who have declared themselves
incompetent TO decide without persons and papers
what articles require protection, and to what ex.
tent, present the House with Tariff in the form
OF bill, before they get that information If So
the prima facie inference is. that the bill will be
one which they will afterwards either support o.
oppose. as may best SUIT their purposes What
they report in ignorance. they may discard under
the influence of an illumination which will here
after be shed on them.
Acting on this principle, that the reporting of a
bill will not pledge Those who reported it, to sus-
tain il, they may lay before the House bill won
,leruly popular in its details, but which is new
err meant to be passed
Whatever result, may be slumbering in the

From the Marulander.

A FEARFUL OMEN We give below an ex-
tract from new JACKSON paper recently pub
shed IN Charleston, South Carolina. entitled the
Crisis. At present, we cannot trust ourselves to
comment upon sentiments so mOnstious but shall
leave it to the good sense of our readers to deter.
mine, how far it would be safe 10 entrust their lib
critics, and the happiness of those who are to live
alter them, to party whose leaders are actuated
by motives at once so much at war with the duty
which every good citizen owes to the republic, and
the peace and quiet of the country. Had such
sentiments been av0wed in the boot,icst period Of
the French Revolution, by Rubespierre or Z Dan
ton, they probably would not have excited our sur
PRISE; but must confess, we are struck with
horror and Indignation at them, coming as they do
from SO intelligent, and hitherto. patriotic portion
OF our country. We are now, not willing to be-
lieve that there are many of the citizens of that
place who entertain similar feelings towards us of
the North, who think it the business of patriotism
to take Of the interests Of our citizens in
preference to those of another and distant ma
tion.--
