eShioits IN his paper this morning, good deal O
agitation. and bad MARINERS. We hail his passion
as favorable sign, and the city has enjoy cd it as
good treat. We only afraid the worthy cdito
may commit himself 100 far; may in his wrath
pledge himself so deeply to A. Jackson, Eaton
Van Buren, & Co, that when that time comes
which'by all the signs of the Heavens is not ia,
olsant even his practsed agility, and political sup
Pieness, may be unable to accomplish the nccessar,
and accustomed summerset. Beware, Mr.. Editor
Ihnk On that dircfui hydra, minerity-the pub
lie printing-the advertising for the General Gov
ernmeht-the sweets OF power to compensate and
e. 10 Punlsh-the Utilization administered by advice
solicited from Presidents and Secretaries-thc de
aightful day dream long INDUCED, sometimes Sc
near realized, that the Richmond Enquirer (ieaver
save the mariD controlled the opinion and reou
lated the destiny Of this ancient and renowner
commonwealth. Think of all these pleasant things
and remember that they have been obtained by
sacrifices so they can only be preserved by keeping
in majority.
In tho Enquirer of this morning, We find the fol.
lowing article:
THE TOASTS-at Hirhmond
We lay NJ or readers the toas;s yhci.
have bee published given at the oGl, "a.
lie dinner whcli was held in this City on +
iaie Ami, rsnry - We should not regard

aware ofil uses which will be made of them
the nresci sta of political parties Som.
the Onposl'iorsts the CITY have already bce,
chuckilng at them as Signs IF the Times-Fh,.s
at distance will manage to make the mos u
them.
The friends of Jackson in this CITY do No..
d deny thai hey are in the min"rity-H was tn.
case at the last Election and is unquestionabl,
so at the present time But they a,e indignant !,
the condition in which the toass at Glars
Mo fk.,.
Those who were not at the dinner, ask how
comes to pass; that not only were toasfs giv,,,
in honor of Mr. Clay, but several toasts, highly
deroga DRY TO A Jackson; and yet he had on MT
friend present $50 poor as to do him reverence
They demand, how comes all this about Were
there no friend of Jackson present into n company
OF 2 or 800 individuals? Have they ali abandoned
him in this City? Or were they all struck mutt.
in the presence of Mr.. Clay's friends?
80 But it is true that the cause of the Admins
ItratioD is abandoned IN his city. We can pu our
finger upon two men only who have gwen II w
--and only one of these has gone over t.. Mr.
Clay. 1t there be any Others, know hem not.
Some three or four of The fence "n;lrmen have
jumped over, but not to thc SIDE oi Mr.. CLAW
We speak of cnnrs', If what we know; and VIVA
we hear dsclaiming at he same iime all inten
ton of playing the lnqns!tor upon neig hbors.
We may say, also, that if any OF those VIII
gave the toas IN question, have changed their
opinions since the election. we know them not
If such be The state Of things the qut>tin,!
again comes back upon us, there no friend
of jackson present? Was there M one there To
give Rowland for OIiver?" THIS quest on is
at once answered III the aff native. There 1cere

surprIze, upon seeing the toasts published, is
WHY some Of hose gentlemen did no. come out

name attached to 1t, like those which were sent
in by the Governor, and the Hon. A. Steven
son." ard Col John Nicholas
The friends Of MIR. Clay may toast him as high
or as deep as they please. The zeal of his
friends on this occasion speaks for itself We
needed no such evidence, indeed, about three of
the gentlemen who toasted Mr.. Gay We
know them well, We know tn m to be ardent
Clay men, and honest in their INJECTIONS. Three
Others we know not-but their toasts speak
enough for their real, # not for their tnste.-
With such evidences before them we ask he
Jackson men, III his city, why will they sleep

Nothing but an overweeuing confidence in The
strength Of Jackson can Iulure your causo-and
