CONSISTENCY.

The Jackson portion Of the Press, has almost UNI
versully sfigmazcd the rejection of Hill, Noah, and
other Editors, by the Senate, as anticipation, in
prescribing q certain class of citizens; aiming
that all citizens ought to stand the snmc ground.
Contyast his ,oM their hngunge in 1926, 81 aud
press their disapprobatIon OF tho principle Of appoint
ing Editors; end Mr.. Clay, for three years was in
cessanty assailed by the combined Jackson press in
terms OF unmcasurcd severity and abuse for the ap-
dispatches to $. America. This WINS the burthen Of
al the election icrng songs from 1926 TO l828--nor
there single Jackson Press then found to sus-
tain the civil rights g. the equal privileges Of Editors.
.Noo, forsooth, their President having brought 10
30 Of the corps into gcc md the Senate oftbc L.
States alarmed AT the obvious ntcn ion of rewafdinp
the conducor0 the press, for clcctonecung scrvi-
cos, having discarded several Of the more conspicuous
for the Iaudabe purpose Of onnuIIng the precedent
the Presses Of these consistent gentlemen groan
under the most pathetic appeals and circumstances
against the 1nh RepuJiieanism Of prescribing whole
class Of citizens from tho prIvegcof holding office!
Very consistent, aud in good keeping!
With the NEST ingenious pertlnacity they re-
fuse to take the proper distinction, and persist in
viewing the rejection Of Hill and the rest rs a
decree Of exclusion against the whole editorial corps.
Yet no has pretended that Editors ought cl-

The annual Convention of the Protestant Episco-

this place yesterday, and 81 opened with an eloquent
and impressive DISCOURSE by the Rev N. II. Cobbs

clerical and lay deputies OF the different parishes but

bic Bishop Moore, who we presume, ia prevented
from attending by his advanced and conse1ueut

y musical critic in the late London paper gives
the following picturesque description:
Madam Dulckens performance on the piano for tie
was an extraordinary exhibition of manual dexlcrty.
She flew ut the keys like tiger cat, pounced upon
tho chords touseed them, shook them till she had
her wicked will of them;' scrambled up and down
like kitten among leaves; whisked of from Dan to
Beersheba; played at lcaprog with her hands like
one possessed; ran down the chromatic scale dou-
bic notes; up again. 10 show that she could do both
and all this amazing deXtcrity-c1ual in its kind to
the tumblcr in Drury Lane Pantomiinc, was bcstow-
cd upon composition OF at least twenty minutes
duration, which did no; contain single thought
worth hearing.
.uusic.-M. d. Solomon, n musical professor at
Paris, has just invented lit tie machine by which
all instruments may be tuned without difficulty, even
by the youngest musician.
