From the Pennsylvania Inquirer "a Jack


"Rrhmend Enquirer, and consequently the
''stte was about to forsake Gen. Jackson
1en of Virginia! see you in what colsr
20 are held up to the people of Pennsylvania
o the people of the Unien--to the whole
wrldl Are you indeed the slaves here re.
pssented? Arc you the creatures of Thos
itehie, to be whistled to the support of this
san ,er the abandonment of that, at his will *
fsasureP Ii is sslenn and undeniable truth
nat thus yeu are estimated by the Union
degrading and humiliatng, as is the truth
grating as II IS to your pride aud your sense
OF independencc-it is yet truth, that thro'
out this Union, the enquiry is, net what Vir-
gina thinks, or how Virginia will 60; but
what The. Richie thinks, and how Tho. Rit.
che will go? We dc not ask you to credit
this incredible assertion upon our bare state
nent-enquire of those who have travelled
whether north or southland ask them, If
Virginia is not universally, through this broad
Empire, charged to the private account of
The. Richie? Yes-wince and finch as you
please-sputter and swear that you are and
VIII be the slaves of no man-we say, and
we say it without the fear of contradiction
that throughout the wide extent Of this Uni
on, we, the people of Virginia are politically
weighed and measured, by the weatherceek
Of Tho. Richie!
TIE submit to the yoke Of a Caesar, Crem-
well, BoDaparte, or even Bolivar, is sla
yeTy-hut slavery, where tho burden OF
the yoke is alleviated by the intrinsic superi
ority of him who imposes it-sut TO submit
to the yoke OF Tho. Richie, the creature of
circumstances the tame follower of O..
vents, whe never yet aspired to the thought
OF regulating or confronting them--this is
degradation unmixed, unalleyed, unmitigated,
and unqualified. d. Richmond Vhig.
We find the following pithy note in the
Village Record:
'The President has signed the Light House
Bill--given his appreciation to making Road
in Maine; to clearing OUT rivers and harbor.,
Back Greek and all. We congratulate the
public on this happy change of sentiment
Gentlemen, ye who approved the Veto, cat
tentlen the whole! To the right about facet
.faother instance Of General Jacksons res
psct for tbs Senate and Constitution Samuel
C.Stambaugh, whose nomination to the same
Office was REJECTED by the Senate, has been
appointed by the President since the adjourn
ment of Congress, United States Ageat to
the Meneminee Tribe Of Indiansi,
"What will Mrs. Grandy say to that?n
1t is said that the annexed arauttsratly curl
Gus sentence is frequently used in Western
Schools for the cure Of stammeriug. We
copy it from Kentucky paper:
"Thespolis Thistle the thistle SITTER sifted
seive full of unsilted thistles, and if 17heo
polls Thistle the thistle sitter sifted sieve
full Of unsifted thstes, where's the sieve foil
OF sifted thistles that Theopolis the thistle
sitter sitsd,!"
This is hardly parallel to the following.
from tae works Of the famous Ben Johnson:
''lf twister, a twisting, doth twist him a
twist, and one twisted twist of the twister
while twisting, untwists, then the twister,
whe twisting, uatwisted the twist. the un-
twisted twist must untwist."
Tke Stolen L:tier-Haw a certain cent
dental letter from President Monroe to Mr.
Calhoun got into the hands of General Jack
son, without the consent or knowledge OF
Mr. Calhoun. is still mystery. The Wash
ington Telegraph of Thursday thus closes
reply to the New York Standard on the
subject:--
Gas we have said, it has been seen that
names In this matter are substantial things; s.
at may be that the names Of the members OF
Congress, and of the person who assumed

light upon this subject, aud enable the pub
ilc TO determine how far their agency goes to
prove or disprcve plot. Ii is argued that
because they frofessea to act with Mr. Cal
nouns consent, therefore there was no plot
IL this argument be good, the fact that they
acted without Mr.. Calheun's knowledge and
against his consent, is conclusive prosf that
there was plot. And we ask the Editor oil
the Standard what he will say if it shall ap.
pear that the letter was parlos,,ed, and that
90 Tar from acting under the sanction Of Mr.
calhoun, this professsd friend, after travelling
from Washington to Nashville fer the pur.
pose of placing the letteriu the hands OF Gen
jackson, travelled to Albany to report pro.
gress. We believe that all this ,ciu appear
If the names be given. We ask for the anne
not only of ths member Of Congress, but
also Of him who, the Standard says, "car
tel how he got the letter" Will the Editor
OF the Standard do US ths faver to republish
this article, and give to it fair and candid
answer"
