SATURDAY, MORNING. JULY "A, 1880.
10 In Berks county, Pa. the following tous. was
given by Mr.. Bifes.
Seen. Jackson-fIis mild government entities him
TO the thanks OF every freeborn American"
.uad Mr. Bles-and every freeborn American
ought to be grateful that it is mld-that is to say.
ought to be grateful that his servant Andrew Jack
son does not ride him with whip and spur! Your
toast Mr.. Biles, is worthy ofyour terrible name Had
providence blessed you with better, you never
could have stumbled upon so absurd a sentiment.
Jacksonism is of two kinds--that which used the
Hero for ends. personal political-which is wor
10y or unworthy the end the one or the other
--ara that which worships the individual, which is
JacAsonism proper. The first may be compared to
an enlightened love of money, founded upon knew
ledge OF It's universal efficacy a means-.he other
TO that love OF money which dolzes it as an object
aVaEcs proper. We are persuaded that so deeradino
sentiment as jacksopism proper was utterly nm
known to the people of America before its rise
1t 10 something new among us, to find freemen
CONSCIOUS OF their rights, and ready to die for them
II necessary, sunk in the debasement of man yor
ship! Look at Mr.. Biles' toast, man of some dis
tinctlon, as he Y. President of the dav, q
freeman and Republican, calling upon his country to
be grateful, and for what? WHY for the mild Gov
eminent OF President jackson? Because mapis
OF limited powers and circumscribed duration has
not butchered his constituents and laid waste their
fields with fire and sword! Sentiments corresponding
an abasement With this we meet with eyery dav in
The Chronicles of Jacksenism proper--sentments
Which proclaim, the dignity Of manhood and the ele
vation of conscious liberty, to be sunk and extin
guished in beastly man worship-a passion for mil,
itay Idol, the lucky victor of rash field go intense
and absorbing that it enguphs all else.
Do Speaking of Mr. Chiffon. the Louisville Focus
observes:-
"a majority of Mr.. Chilton's district, we are in
formed on good authority, sustain him in the high
minded, independent and truly patriotic course n,r
sued by him during the late session of Congress- =
fhe meeting which called on Mr. Chiffon to resign,
was composed of about dozen persons"
Mr. Chilton's District was among the most deci
dedly Heroic, in Kentucky.
The Editor of the Enquirer, offended at the marks
Of respect and attachment exhibited by the People of
Orange 10 Gov. Barbour, at the late Anniversary
and intent indirectly to censure them through him
nbbed his pen and proceeded to read the speech
and sentiment delivered by Gov. b. on that occasion
to ind text to attack; but finding nothing he could
censure in that eloquent address lin which every
thing was avoided Of an nfiammatorv or party char
acter, or IN the liberal sentiment he gave az q toast
Our worthy contemporary was determined, notwith-
standing, not to be banked in his purposes and like
the enraged bu, which in his onset shuts his ewes g.
missing the matador whom he aimed runs full tilt
on his sword, Mr. e. passed by Gov Barbour's
toast, and bounced on the 9th regular toast for it
which he published in yesterdays Enquirer as Gov
Bs, and vents his spleen on 1t and him accordnnlv,-
We advise Mr r. to keep cool as he Gun in this
not weather, aud get pair of good spectacles.
Yesterday was the hottest day this summer The
mercury rose in thermometers on the Main stree. tc
49, 963, and e7o-the first hung the cell of mid
die door, exposed to Of air; the second in
side OF store, which is shaded all day by awnings
not touching the wall, and exposed to draft of air.
and the third inside of front door on the shaded side
OF the street. Phis is 70 higher than it has been
before this season. We were crediby informed tba,
the mercury in thermometer on Shockoe Hill, il
