u A Caucus, said TO have been composed
oil the Democrats oil the Pennsylvania Legsla
iure. has nominated Gen. Andrew Jackson ms
candidate Tor reelection 10 the Presidency
OF the United States. IN the preamble, they
say that this nomination :" will meet the
wishes of the democrats OF Pennsy lvania -
such democrats, we suppose, as Joseph Hemp.

we presume, has been purged Of the stains of
nitra federalism by his subsequent devotion to
the great Juggernaut. and is now a patent de.
moeraf, dyed in the wool" and that too mol
wthstanding he is the father aud doubtless the
abIest supporter OF the bill, proposing, in dis.
regard Of the rights of the States TO construct
the mammoth road from Buffalo to New Or

asserts, that the nomination Of Jackson was re.
jecled by a vote of - 10 "a and that il carried
al all, it Was by sIeuder vote, of the minority
Of The Penny lvan,a Legislature. Only Sc
members attended the caucus while the Legs
lsture is composed OF l53-Iitle more than one
third ofthe whole numner There is no doub,
that this nomination was dictated from Wash
ington city and that ii had one OF two bjects
in view: either TO afford Gen. Jackson some
thing like an excuse for violating his solemn
pledge to the American people, that he would
retire at the expiration OF his first term Of ser

of the Mississippi. Mr.. Chambers presented
two petitions from James Deale and Alexander
Campbell, praying indemnity for French Spolia-

ecutiye business.
In the House of Representatives, among the
number of the memorials and petitions presented,
was one by Mr.. Sutherland, frem Philadelphia,
in favor of the removal, and final settlement,
West of the Mississippi, of the Indians. A Sc
ries of resolutions were submitted by Mr.. Potter
on the subject of paper money and the banking
system, concluding with a resolution adverse
to the renewal of the charter of the U. S. Bank.
They were after a short discussion, laid upon
the table, with a view of being called up for
consideration at the proper time. The bill to
reduce the price of the public lands was, after an
unsuccessful motion on the part of Mr.. HiHiams
to lay it on the table, postponed until Monday

day, and, together with an amendment proposed

to the great injury Of his credit andsreputation as
a merchant, and laying his damages at several
thousand dollars. The Jury returned a verdict
for Mr.. Bloodgood of d. 500 dollars.
The principle settled by this decision, and
which has an important bearing, in this commu-
nifty, is, that a merchant does not forfeit his resi-
dence by a temporary absence to the Atlantic CT
ties for his annual supplies.
