The Fredericksburg Arena asks, sin the even,
Of the reelection Of Jackson. would it not be in
the -. line of safe precedent" to run Gen. Dodse

Certainly we should think so-and we are no,
quite certain that we should not espouse his cause
especially, il the rage for "miltary glory" con,
tiaues. We have heard the same idea broached
before and there is no knowing where il may end
When Gen. Jackson was first spoken Of for Pre-
sident, he was as little thought of in reference
that office, as Gen. Dodge is now.

The Telegraph, speaking of " notification"
with reference to the Presidential election, cx
plains why this matter should have nothing to do
with the contest between General Jackson and
Mr.. Clay We subjoln what is said by the Te'
Iesraph:
| Although notification looks to the South, and
is independent and entirely regardless Of the
Presidential question, there are many, very ma
ny in the other States who are prevented from
uniting in opposition to Gen. Jackson, because
they apprehend that Mr.. Clay, if elected, will
endanger the Union by bringing the Federal Co
verument in conflict with the anti.tarf States
of the South. We have examined this question
Ia all its bearings; and we are well convinced
that neither the election Of Mr. Clay nor of &C.
neral Jackson. can materially vary the action on
the question of the tariff-they are both in favor
of the present tariff, they are both opposed to
notification General Jackson has personal pc.
pularity in the south, which Mr.. Clay has not !;
and If elected. will exercise more influence
against the South, by keeping up divisions and
ieaousies among her leading men, than Mr. Clay
could do. Those who rely on notification as
the constitutional remedy for the expressions
which they are determined to resist, know that
they have nothing to hope. either from Mr. Clay
or from Gen. Jackson; but circumstances have
induced many OF them to arrange themselves with
the partsans of the latter. If Geu. Jackson's
reelection is TO be defeated, it must be done BY
satisfying these that they should refuse to muster
in his ranks. To do this, we propose to show
that every principle which induced them to sup.
port General Jackson in preference to Mr.. Ad'
ans, requires them now to oppose his re-eIec
ton.
Among the questions put by the New York

proper medical advice were taken upon the ear.
Hest appearance of a disordered state Of the slo
mach and bowels, ninety nine persons out Of ev.
ery hundred Of temperate habits and ordinarily
good constitutions would be safe from an attack
Of malignant cholera.
They say in reply to another question, that
there are ''almost universally, symptoms prcmO'
nitory Of the cholera. The number Of exceptions
is exceedingly small"
