weapon employed by the parlzans of Gen.
Jackson for the purpose of elevatng him 10 the
station, which lie has so much disgraccd, was,
the ccaseless clamor raised by them against the
last administration for supposed want of econ.
oIny in the public funds "a charge as false as
the purposes for which it was made, were base
and unprincipled. There never has been II
more economical administration than the one
preceding this. Those false accusations, and
the reiterated promises and pledges of re.
trenchment so soon as General Jackson come
into power had the effect 10 prejudice the peo.
Pile against the late administration and TO de-
ceive them into belief that these promises

WAsHlNGToN, June IL.
The Jackson Van Buren, men from New
York are determined 10 sacrifice euery thing
TO the hero; and with the assistance Of the
recreant sons Of New Hampshire and Maine,
will be able in all probability, to defeat the
amendments of Mr. Davis of Massachusetts.
10 the tariff bill, reported to the House by
the Committee of Manufactures The great
interests of the country have reason to place
but little reliarre on this House of Repre-
sentatives. TO the Senate we must look,
to save US from the distress and ruin with
which we are threatened if we fail in the
Senate, 100 to the land, and we of New
ENGLAND may charge the trouble upon our
selves.
The apathy that has existed, and does
now exist, throughout New England. upon
this all important question, of sustaining our
own industry by good Tariff is amazing.
The people will never he aroused to Just
sense of their danger, until ruin stares them
in the face. The State of virginia is
playing upon New York ); bidding for Mr..
Van Buren,, sayIng-", you do not vote
down this ahoIninahle tariff system, our
State will not vote for him." But she does
not pledge herself to support Mr.. Van Bu-
rem, even if New York should vote for Mr.
McLane's bill.
The Representatives from New Hamp-
shire would vote to colonIze that State, if
necessary to secure Gen. Jackson's cleo
ton. No instance is Iecollected where the
whole delegation, with the exception of
Mr.. Bell, of the Senate have not voted with
the South, whenever their votes have been
wanted This delegation, with this excep-
ton, is the most scrvle of any that has
ever been in Congress. When Isaac Hill
and Col. Hubbard, are the leaders, it must
be apparent, that their followers in Congress
must either be destitute OF common sense or
common honesty. The people can make up
their minds whether any of them are def
cient in both. So far as Hill, Hubbard &
Co. have influence and a voice in the matter,
the system of protection will be abandoned,
and the interest of their constituents sacri-
feed without scruple, if by doing this they
can sustain themselves in their petty inpor-
lance with the South.
The question will be settled this week,
and New England will know whether, as
far as the result depends on these recrecni
sons they shall be permitted to remain in
the country, or be obliged to emigrate be.

REIGN OF TERROR.

The spirit that pervades The political circles at
Washington, is new in that place, if not in our
country. What has given it such dcepened hue
of viruence at this moment? 1t is broadly assert
ed that the countehance shown to the display of
this spirit by the President, has tended more than
any thing else TO produce this state of things
Without vouching for the correctness of this
ton, it seems well enough TO to facts of 9TH
er days, in seeking for an explanation Of what is
now passing in President Jackson's immediate at
mosphere. These shew that wherever President
Jackson has for any time, been the master spirit
strles, oulrages and violence have taken root.
At New Orleans, he had scarcely driven the
enemy from the assault of the CITY, before himself
and those around him were engaged in the most
vrulent controversies with number of citizens
The extrcmities to which those controversies
were pushed remembered by all.
In the Seminole War similar state of things
sprung up. None forget the violence, nav
the terocity of the transactions of that campaign,
and things connected with it. Governors of States,
and Senators in Congress were alike involved in
them.
The organization of the Government of Florida,
where Gen. jackson was the master spirit, pro-
duced still more fragrant scenes of violence and
outrage.
Nashville, the vicinity of Gen. Jackson's home.
is proyerbia for scenes OF personal contests in dis
regard Of law.
Washington, since the Presidency of General
Jackson, puts on the same character. Clubs, drks
and pistols are adopted for arguments. The news
paper, avowedy the government; official in every
case o. outrage, stands up to justify or paIiate.
The most devoted followers and partiZans OF Pres-
dent jackson. are in every case, the first TO resort
to force. His adherents in Congress oppose all
inquiry into his conduct in relation TO the again
and again repeated outrages of his votaries. They
seem to prefer that h. should rest under the mpu-
tation of countenancing :hem, rather than have
the truth fastened upon him. Surely the inference
is not an unfair one, that the present angry state Of
feeling takes its cast from the temper Of President
Jackson. - Cincinnati Gazette.

WASHINGTON. June l6,


Mr.. Sutherland of Pennsylvania. con-
cluded an eloquent and powerful speech
yesterday, which he commenced the pre-
reding day. His great object was to show
that the protective system originated in the
south; and by numerous documents he fri
nmphantly proved that the statesmen of
Virginia and South Carolina laid the deep
and broad foundations of our manufacturing
establishnents-that Washington, Jeffer-
son, Madison, Monroe, and all The eminent
men of that age of worthless, in the Ancient
Domlnlon, were strenuous advocates for en-
couraging internal improvements, and the
various branches of national industry.
Mr.. Sutherland commanded the undvid
ed attention of the House for nearly four
hours, and by an array of incontrovertihle
facts, and "A strain of eloquence of uncom-
mon vigor, molly maintained the American
System. In argument and exposition he
was felicitons, interesting, AMI instructive.
He achieved glorious victory over the mod
ern self styled disciples of Washington and
Jefferson. He commended for the prosperity
and glory Of the whole republic, with the
nrdor of patriotism, the energy of an able
statesman, and the fearless independence
Of an illustrious champion of civil liberty
He was for the Union, the Constitution, and
the Laws, and appealed to the justice and
magnanimity of the south, with manly dig
nifty, and called upon the north to remem-
Der the deeds of their fathers, and to he an
jmated by that lofty spirit, which nerved
their arms in those perilous times that trieG

CURIOUS ANECDOTE OF A DOG.
From Jesse's GIeQnin gS.


The captain OF a trading vessel, who now re-
sides at Brighton, picked up lately dog at sea,
more than twenty miles from land. This cir
cumstance may throw some light on the fact Of
dogs, which have been sent to France or Ireland
from England, finding their way back. The
present earl Of l. sent some drafted
hounds from his kennel in Cumberland to Ire
land, where thew were safely received, and re-
ceipt given for them to the person who brought
them over. Three weeks afterwards, two OF
those hounds made their appearance at Lord LIS
kennel, though in a very exhausted state. A
gentleman also informed me, that pointer dog,
which had been left at Calais, made its way over
to England. The most amusing fact OF this
kind that know Of, is one that was related to
me by a gentleman on whose veracity l car
place the most implicit reliance: and though il
may appear to some of my readers to border ur
on the marvellous, think it too entertaining to
withhold it, He informed me that a friend Of
his, an officer in the forty-fourth regiment, who
had occasion, when in Paris, to pass one Of the
bridges across the Seine, had his boots, which DAD
been previously well polished, dirtied by poo
dle-dog rubbing against them. He in conse'
quence went to man who was stationed on the
bridge, aud had them cleaned. The same cir
cumstance having occurred more than once, his
curiosity was excited, and he watched the dog.
He saw him roll himself in the mud Of the river.
and then watch for person with well-pOlished
boots, against whom he contrived to rub himself.
Finding that the shoeback was owner of the dog,
he taxed him with the artifce; and, after little
hesitation, he confessed that he had taught the
dog the trick, in order to procure customers for
himself. The officer being much struck with the
dogs sagacity, purchased him at a high. price;
and brought him to England. He kept him tied
M in London some tune. and then released him.
The dog remained with him day or two, and
then made his escape. A fortnight afterwards,
he was found with his former master, pursuing
his old trade on the bridge.
