$4,000 gallons Whiskey! advertised for by
the Reforming administration.

The friends of Temperance expected bet
ter things of the Reform promised by the
New Administration than to see them con-
tract for liquor at this rate. Is it possible
that the handful of troops employed by the
United States can drink eighty-three thou
sand t,co hundred gallons Of Whisky, in one
year! Have Uncle Sans soldiers got to
swill whiskey at this rate during this Adj
ministration, and the people in these hard
times to pay for it? And yet this quantity
of Whiskey is advertised for in the Jackson
papers of this city, for Uncle Sans soldiers.

Account of Hay Making on the farm Of NJ
Amos Hill, IN Vest Cambridge.

~NN'NS'N
On Monday July 10, Mr.. Hill commenced
cutting the hay upon 81 acres of moving,
including lot containing acres having at
least 500 stumps, and the hay Of more than
an acre of which was lodged. The now
ing was done by Mr.. Hill himself, who had
not moved before for IL years and by Mr..
VIM. Gordon from Vermont, and Adolphus
Harding from Fryeburg, Me in thirty-two
hours, being equal to the labor Of one man
for niuety-six hours. Two other hands
were employed in curing and getting in the
hay, assisted in the intervals between the
seasons of moving by the three persons
above named. Before the close of the Sat
urday, the hay, which, on the morning Of
the previous Monday, had been growing on
the whole 81 acres, was all cut and cured
and slowed away in two barns, most of il
having been pitched over the great beams
The quantity of hay thus got in during one
week by five hands, amounted by the est.
mate Of good judges, to not less than Al
tons. This is an example Of diligence and
activity, probably unequalled in the annals
of hay-rnaking in New England.

The JACKSON PARTY. The Washington
Telegraph recently contained letter from
Boston, giving a Furnishing account of the
jackson celebration in that place, after whc h
the writer proceeds to say that " our State is
rapidly emerging from the political darkness in
which she has been enveloped, and will soon
tower forth in all her native spleridor" On
this paragraph the Boston Bulletin, an ably con-
Quoted, and decided Jackson paper, makes the
following remarks:
elf the correspondent of the Telegraph
means to assert that the cause of the admins
tratIon is gaining ground in this quarter TRUTH
oblges us to declare that this is not the fact
1t is notorious, and we appeal for proof to every
one acquainted with the state of parties here,
that the conduct of certain men, who have I'M
wOrthlly crept into the favor of tile government
has inspired the community with such down
right disgust, that the jackson partv-and we
lament the necessity Which compels us to say
it--has dwinded.within the last six months to
mere skeleton. We are perfectly aware that
1t is part OF the policy Of these men-ahd they
nave organized regular system of manGuver-
ing by letters, and by hired puffs, for this pur-
pose-to keep the friends of the administration
at tile seat OF government, entirely in the dark
respecting their own standing in this commu-
nifty. Every individual, at all conversant with
the present condition of parties in this city,
knows 1t to be dcmonstrable truth, that where
1000 voters could be brought to the polls six
months ago, not half the number could now be
mustered ON any question in favor of the ad
ministration. And what is the cause 1t is
the tyrannical, treacherous, intolerant, and sell
fish conduct of individuals who have acquired
place and consequence by chance, and are abus-
mig with a high hand the advantages which
have-temporarily, we trust in heaven been
confded to their direction"

Mr.. NoURsE. Mr.. Nourse left Wash
ington a few days since for Pennsylvania,
deening his health required temporary
absence from the city. Previous to his de-
pafture, he addressed letter to the Sec
rotary of the Treasury, stating that he was
willing to execute deed of assignment of
all his property, as security for whatever
sum he might owe, until the result of a tr-
al should determine the justice of his claim
against the government. The property was
abundantly sufficient to cover the alleged
deficiency due from Mr.. Nourse. The Sec
rotary declining the offer. took occasion, in
the absence of Mr.. Nourse, to attach all
his property, at the suit of the United
States.
There is, it seems, real dispute between
the government and Mr.. Nourse; one that
can only he determined by suit at law
and it is passing strange that the Secreta-
ry should he willing to persecute and oD-
press an individual that sought nothing but
Justice, and was willing to give security for
the payment of any sum that might be due
from him.-PrOuidence Journal.

And the King call d his chief councillors aud

My heart has long groaned in bitterness at

Now, therefore, choose from amongst you
one who can interpret the writings OF the wise
men Of the East, aud see if ye can discover this
mighty inlquily, tor have set my face as Hin,

And Amos surnamed Renegade, answered in
this wise, and said
The words OF any lord the King shall be o.

But Andrew the King did wr0ngfully inter

And when the chief counsellors and scribes,
