IL The President rendered public dinner in
Lexington, Va. on the alst, which he declined. from
want OF time. The Lexington intelligence, has the
following observations the occasion of his passins
through that Town.
! On Monday evening last, the President of the
jackson men might be expected of course to be pom
ted IN their attentions to the of heir choice
but all Unfortunately treated hun with the respect
due TO tn first magistrate OF our country. We un-

seems. consider it settled point, that President
Jackson is decidedly opposed To internal improve
ments by the General Government, under all forms
and notifications, except military roads. This mat
ter, therefore, may rest until Tia re is change OF

countenance was remarkable for sbcnevolence"-

Close behind the Hero, came Maj. Eaton. Upon
the event of his arrival in Lexington, the InteIIigen
