Capt Buckup, OF the brig Gen. Victoria arrived
yesterday from Vera Cruz, informs us tina, great

the French Packet No. 8, and the American brig
r. ia, OF Philadelphia, and the massacre Of all
on BOARD In consequence OF In, the merchants
in general and captains of vessels in port had
waited on Commodore Porter, who, in comp;-
ance with their request, had furnished them with
arms, &c.
All enterprise appears to be at q stand and the
Peoii' principally engaged in the presidential con-

TO would be elected President, and Don Ignacio

OIL Com Porter, and opposed 10 a navy. The
Mexican feet at Vera Cruz was in a miserable
state: the seamen had been discharged and mos,
OF the officers had resigned, and the probability is
that none OF the larger vessels will ever again
be lifted out. The frigate Congress was moor
ed with six anchors and chains, and two fast to
the CASTLE and several other vessels in similar stu.
atoms.
The brig Hermoinc, Captain Hawkins, was
still at sea, cruizing without orders and had TAX
en- several prizes, which had not been sent into
Vera Cruz.

OF success in single county, is the climax of alb
surdity. Jackson assertions and opinions just
now at great discount Nobody comes to look for
them. They are only at nominal value. They
assured that Mecenburg was at least three ourths

The recent election for State Senator in that coun
ty has shown that this estimate partakes Of the usual
character of their calculations. Imagination has
had much more to do with it than truth. At the
close of the poll, Davidson. the Adams candidate,
had sol votes. and M'Lear, the Jackson candidate,
1913 votes. The following paragraph, which we

and circumstances necessary to show that this cleo

THE PRESIDENT.

great outcry is made ut this moment for factiOus
purposes, that the President and some OF his Secre-
lares have taken short respite from official labours
and returned for few days to their homes No evil
dence, indeed, advanced that any public lnconve
nience results from this intermissiOn, or that any
public business is neglected but the cry OF ''elec-
tioneerng'' is gone forth; and the very men that
see nothing to remark, in the migration through Thu,
and other States of the Speaker OF the House OF Re-
representatives., and other jackson m .mbers OF Con-
sress--are the most sensitive to the iniiaence which
they i,pute to the visits, certainly not less limo
cent Of the executive officers of the government to
their own homes and iresides. Not only are these
tunctionaries abused for going at all, but their eve
ny action is watched, and even the shoes and stock
ings which they wear, made The subjects OF grave
elimination and that among people that call them
selves free, and think themselves enlightened.
Now as to the practice of the Executive visiting his
own residence, during some period of each year,
we believe it has been invarable. AMI unquestoned
heretofore. The Virginia Presidents certainly, were
always in the habit OF doing so and we oil tins part
of the country at least are not prepared to think
that wrong in northern President, that was deem
ed matter of course for southern one. Monroe,
Madison, Jefferson, went to their farms constantly ];
and why should not Mr.. Adams? 1t was, too, in
other days, the boast aud pride OF the republican
party, when that term was really significant, that
Mr. Jefferson was. On such occasions, ny reason Of
his plain dress, aud unpstentalous appearance. the
very type and representative Of republican plain
ness and equality. Now. tnrsooth, Mr. Adams is
r,culed. because on hot day he rode on horseback
in round jacket and was, it is recorded with glee
by protesting democrats, as repfoach upon MI.
characterization for common traveller. Truly.
this sort of espionage, and consequent t.ttletatte
anecdotes, are wondrous pifu They serve, how
ever, to show both the ma!isnity of the opposition
and the merits of the President, whose talents, Ii
deity and patriotism being unquestionable, is yet
guilty OF the enormty of riding on horseback in II
round Jacket and nankeen pantaloons. 1t any tho
rough bred horseman CAM after the exposure Of such
Fact, support him for the Presidency, he will Ger
tany forget what he owes to the dignity OF leather

from the National MtelAgencer.

Every citizen who has any knowledge at all of0ur
public servants, is acquainted with the remarkably
iaborious habits of the President. He is perhaps
the earliest riser in Washington, and applies him
self to the various duties of his high ulce, with an
assiduity which is without example, perhaps in any
public man, since the time OF President wash
inston. We recollect learning the TACT. that when
he was preparing his extremely elaborate report on
the ntricat subject Of weights and measures. while
he was Secretary Of State, required by resolution
of Congress to make, work which, by its research
and comprehensiyeness. extorted the praises OF Eng
l:sh writers--anXous to complete The report before
the close of the session, at which he wished to pre-
sent it. he arose during nearly the whole Winter at
three O'clock, and occupied himself for three hours
before day almost every morning, IN completing the
task assigned to him. He accomplished it, and the
report, comprising between two and three hundred
octave pages, was sent in before Congress adjourn
ed. We mention the incident merely to illustrate
the habits Of the President. and show how necessa-
sary some relaxation must be to man OF sixty, when
the heats Of our long Southern Summer add their
enleebliny effect to that of constant labour. With
out such relaxation, and the renovation OF lew
weeks annually spent in the bracing sea air OF his
native climate, his health would suffer. it his life
were not endangered by it. He. therefore, almost
every Summer. makes visit to Massachusetts OF
snme weeks, which he spends quietly amongst bis
kindred anu IflenuS, anu TetutuS W le scat w WV
ernment, prepared for the laburs OF the Winter.
This has been thought reasonable, indeed necess
ary an indulgence, for which he has the example o
ali his predecessors that it is rarely that has beer
the subject of remark or censure, except BY the
vulgar and ignorant. The Presidents recent jour
ney has, however, been made the occasion for an N
decency, which we think deserves to be held up tt
general reprobation The New-York Enquirer o
the 22d ut. exceeding the licence it enjoys, of be
ing almost as scurrous as it peases, has published
