In order to make it so interesting as to induce
the persons who receive to preserve il, and
thus again to make the advertisements still
more valuable, a large portion of it viii be
filed with matter of general interest And
when there is taken into consideration the
, number of readers in every town which will
be secured for it, the publisher INDUCES the
hope that it may be honorod by some Of the
ablest men in the country with thier contri

Gen. Jackso, and The Senate. During the
present session Of Congress, the Senate has
manifested complaisanee towards General
Jackson, sufficiently obsequious, one would
think, to satisfy every member of his party,
who was n6tprepared 10 surrender Sin terms"
the institutions of the country TO his will. But,
the liberal sacrifices made by that body at
the shrine Of faction have only served, it
would seem, to whetits appetite, and are not
admitted to excuse the faintest Pickering OF
independence Because the Senate did not
register on the moment of their being presen-
tad. some Of the icscripts OF the throne, they
were denounced by the New York Organ Of
the Administration, and warned that thei
subservency was not sufficiently industrious.
But their audacity in refusing to offend the
moral ,ense of the country, by confirming
the appointment Of Isaac Hill. has brought
down on their heads the unmeasured resent
| ment Of the junto, who determined that he
should be rewarded" and who seem still
resolved that he shall be SO in despite Of the
| Senate. In Illustration of the spirit of Jack
sonism, we subjoin two extracts on the sub
ject OF the "H0norable' Isaac Hin; the first
! from his own paper, the New HAMPSHIRE Pa
! triot and the other from the Hartford Conn.,
! Times Surely "there is sufficient rwiue''
/ mong the 'abassdoned Senator'S" and a suiii
cicnt horror of "proscription," to save Isaac
Hill yet. Let them take heed ofthe ''tAe day

the ''elder Cato" from the voracious jaws Of

"But we did think there was sufficient yir-
tue in a majority Of the Senators TO sustain
the President in an appointment SO highly &C
ceptable to his genuine friends, and parhcu
lary SO, to the democracy of Mr.. Hills own
State We did think that ajority of the
Senate would SO far regard the wishes of the
republicans Of this State as 10 spare us the
modification of hearing the dealening yell Of
federal triumph over one of the most talented,
patriotic and virtuous citizens Of which New
Hampshire can boast. Notwithstanding he
was clothed with the strongest testimonials
which the republicanism Of State could be-
stow upon favorite son, neither regard for
the democracy Of the State, the wishes OF the
President, nor the talents and virtues OF this
high-minded citizen, could save him from
prescription His enemies have triumphed
over him, through the treachery OF those
who ought to have been his frieads. So init
mately is this man connected with the repub
lican party--so closely is he identified with
its various fortunes that this law falls not on
him alone nor is it the less severely felt by
republicans here, that in his person is the lie
mocraey of New Hampshire prescribed"
