ns individuals, 70 the rant lea to them, it was pretty distinctly i'ltimat- cd, in the opinion of the Court, that !hese made !,; :ss!::<!s they; may be brought before the Supreme Court for adjudication.
 The opinion went 10 say, that, if the objection to entertaining jurisdiction iii' .tlsis case were not fatal 10 the appiica- tion, n,thcfe were other grounds on which ail application iol the interference Of this Court in the case, would encounter grave objections. If jurisdiction was exercised in the case, 1t must be on the ground that the Cherokees are foreign nation: and the relations between fo-= reign Powers and the States arc placed in the charge ofa different branch of the Government. For this Court to under take to arbitrate such questions, would be 10 assume a political power not in- tended to be vested in it. f it were true. as argued. that the Cherokee na-. ton is oppressed by the State of Geor- gia, ac. &c., it belonged not to this Court {she aPiaioH eenellaiiedi,11 but 10 other tribunals, to assert their rights and redress their wrongs.
 Mir. Justice Baldwin delivered a very long separate opinion. agreeing entirely in the conclusion to which the majority of the Court had arrived, but not con curing in the views taken in tho opia- ion which had been read.
 Mr. Justice Johnson also delivered separate opinion on the question.
 Our ozen opinion on the subject is of little consequence; but the reasoning of the Court upon the Constitutional pro visions bearing upon the case, appeared to Us to be conclusive.

.Sarofoga, liaycA S.-Nc saw last week a model of a very ingeniously con structed wagon, the object of which is, to materially lessen the power requisite tomoyea given weight. 1t consists of four wheels of sufficient thickness to ad- init of an indentation on the inside of each rim, lined with iron, and sufficient. ly large to receive friction wheels therc- is,, OH which iiie entire toad rests, UT. ing more effectuaIly the lever principle and presenting much less resistance than is ordinarily experienced. Other advan- tages, too, arc the ease with which hors- es are enabled to hold back iiitlescend- ing hills and, the weight resting so low, the little liability, and even d;Dicui:yl there is of upsetting. The princif le may be applied 10 wagons for ordinary use, to stage coaches or to carriages used on railways.

In this instance it has discover ed a plot-but it will not do--the coal ition must make another trial-ME Nc Lean never will consent .to lend himself to such a compaet-the integrity of this gentleman is too well known, and we ha- gard nothing in the assertion; but, come forward who may, Jacskon must be tri- umphant:-
 .sTIhbe opponents of General Jack son, discovering the utter hopelessness of any attempt to elevate Mir. Clay to the Presidency, and having no other man in their own party, for whom it would be worth while even to open poll, yet batting not a jot of their hatred of the honest patriot, whom the people delight to honor, have been sorely puzzled as to what course they shall pursue. But q scheme, a most notable scheme, is now on footing among them! It is nothing
 less than to come into Jackson rank for an .a,,i Jackson candidate. Any thing .o defeat JJaessos,,' is their motto. They have given up all their idea of running Mir. Clay. We have learned tIis fact from men who have q right to know, apd who we do not doubt, do know all theil views. Their scheme now is to ofleI their nomination to JOHN MCLEAN of Ohio, the late Post Master General They talk hereabouts, no longerin whis pers about this matter. They say .Johr |; is :, moderate .Iae isso,is,l,. and their motto is, as We said before, ssan, thing to defeat Jacksop,'' they are will ing 10 take Mir. Mclean.

 A correspondent of the Albany Ar gus gives the following notice of q sen- tcnce of the Boston Courier. It is a fine commentary on the motives which infiu- ence the wreckless opposition to the present administration. A coalition with his Satanic Majesty is admitted 10 be proper, for s9the holy and patriotic purpose of putting down the present ad- ministration." This novel sentence is certainly q ssiustifcation after the fact,s as there can be no doubt but that this CO., alition has long been formcd:
 GeAA!I GeAA!IsIeo IasgsIIeoNs OF CHOICE SPIRITS.
 The Boston Courier, in commenting upon an article in the Globe, relative to propositions of the former paper for a CO., alition between Messrs. Webster, Clay, &c. avows his coalitions in the following emphatic language:
 sg'or our single self, we zrould unite with politicians of every hue and com plexion,' to put down the present admin istration. For such a holy and patriot ic purpose no honest American would hesitate 10 JOIN AN ALLIANCE WITH SATAN HIMSELF
 This l lis is distinct st,owai that the "na- tional republicans of the world" are will ling 10 form a league with the Devil, tn4 put down General Jackson. The Cou- rier probably acts upon the principle, that as Satan has greatly aided the operation of the coalition, it will be use ful to take him into the concern as q partner. In this case, the parties mn. derstand each other so we'll, that we pre- sume that Fir. Webster will not require his Satanic Majesty to sign written pledge, after he has interlined 1t with ap- propriatc promises, in regard to thesanc- ton of the allies who considered it ssun- becoming a moral and religious people to rejoice atour victories 7

 Among t!!iies the s;ll eeeisiofis pronounced pre- yious to the adjournment, was one upon the application, oa the part of the Che rokee Nation, for an injunction to stay certain proceedings of the State of Georgia. The decision of the Court was an unequiyocai denial of the ipjunc- toa.
