TO WHAT ARE WE COMING.

DR. James l.. Armstrong, the gentleman
whose letter is given below, is most worthy
and venerable citizen of Tennessee, aud a de-
sout member of the Methodist Episcopal
Church. For number of months past, he
has been engaged in enlightning the public
mind as to the real character of Gen. Jack
son, in series of numbers called the Ten
nesseaan." These letters founded entirely
upon documentary evidence, are producing
wonderful effect wherever they are received
and read. Indeed the facts disclosed respec-
ting the ferocious character of jackson, have
several weeks since determined his friends to
put so troublesome ,OitnesS out of the .cay.-
Three times has he been challenged to NOR
tai combat. But hrs religious opinions forbid
his acceptance of an invitation to murder
Aud az last measure his ASSASSINATION has
bsen resolved en- my. SPcs.

BY a late arriva! at New York the following
intelligence is received relative to the war be-
tween Russia aud Turkey.
The Russian army has at length crossed the
Danube. The passage, which had been de-
iayed by the extraordinary rise of the waters,
was effected on the morning of the 9Th day of
June. The Danube was crossed under the
fire ofthree Turkish batteries advantageously
posted. but which, before midnight, were in
possession of the Russians On the nth of
June bridge over the Danube was compile
ted,ahd the Turkish fortress of Isaktscha ca
pitulatcd. ..,
The garrison ofthe two pachas had permis-
sion to retire at liberty. 8o pieces of ar,lIe-
Ty, II standards,the munitions and provisions
ofthe fortress, which were considerable, fell
into the hands of the Russians. On the same
day news was received of hattie which took
place on the eth, near BraiIaw, between the
two Aotillas. The Russians had seventeen
vessels Of all sizes the Turks thirty-two. The
fight commenced in the morning and was We

Andrew Jackson as is the approach Of the
Angel Of death into the dismal cavern Of the
impenitent convict; and he contends with
The desperation of devil against the exten
sion of its beams well aware that he must
wither in the uncOntdmindted atmosphere of
the moral aud political world.
He attempts to crush by physical force,
when he cannot by clustering, terrify resist
ance into acquiescence. His understrappers,
aware that they are not invested with any
prerogative, are emu|atng. with all the ardor
of enthusiasm, his GsSG3Sindtiag attempts up
on the BentOns; his tyranc insolence in the
Creek Campaign; his despOtIc Outrages at
New Orleans His lawless usurpation in Flo
rda his braggart impertinrnce at Washing
ton: his unprOvOked NiOlcnLe and silly impu-
dence to Gen. Scott. No wonder the Hero
has such followers. They bat too well rec
ollect the rare specimens of his department
on the race-field and at the cock pit. On
these appropriate theatres, he displayed his
real nature. He was there as much raga-
muffin in feeling, and desperate in demeanor,
as he was fOul-mOuthed blackguard in con-
versatiOn. The recollection Of his feats on
these occasions, inspires his modern follow
ers with the congeniaI fire. whether the late
MOB at Winchester would prove as effective
in defending the liberties of the country as in
profaning the day, we are not prepared to say.
We are rather inclined to the opinion that
they would prove better profaneTs of that
halIowed day than defenders Of the ndepen-
denCe they were pretending to celebrate.
