There have been comparatively few presses, that
nave been governed by great degree of blind
Idolatry as to attempt defence apology for the
Veto-and OF these few, it must be said, that no.
thing else was to be expected. The Will ofthe die
tator is, to them, supreme law however absurd in
ITSELF They know no other rule of conduct. The
eye of patriotism finds, however, some relief from
these pictures of servity in the number of public
presses which have shown their uprightness and
their Independence, in treating the veto, us the
voice OF tho American People will declare it de-
serves; in reprobating as a measure destru cttye
to the best interests of the country. We observe
that many papers in tn, country, which had before
supported General Jackson, have abandoned his
Administration, since the publication of his veto
message.

The IRISH Town MsErING of Monday present
ed the imposing spectacle of FIVE THOUSAND
seeding Jackson Iisimen, publicly renouncng
the errors of Jdcksonism, on the altar of their
adopted country--and sacrificing every minor con-
sideration to their love of liberty. The meeting
was organised exclusively by the original Irish
friends of Jackson, who have become alenated
bys@hls usurpation, and disguised with his ty
ranny& James Gewen. Esq. who presided
was warm and jealous friend of the
migrate ote~ Tennessee; and ne sacrificed
largely to secope his first election. WIN.
Fearis, Esq. of She xce Presidents, was also
an original and warm partisan>of the old Hero, and
so was Dr. James McEIenry, as well the rest of
the meeting. BY an suspicious co.;peidarre. the
day OF the meeting was the 6irth doiy of o'coN-
NELL, the patriotic Orator and Statesman, who
has struck off at least half the feStters which
bound Ireland in iron and calling bondage. Cheer
ed by the recollection, common feeling Of
enthusiasm for Liberty spread the hearts of all
present. and made the welkin ring with shouts Of
.oConnell and Lberty,-Down with the tarant
WITH THE OPPRESSOR
OF THE iRISH."-Monday the 9th August will be
memorable day in the history of Irish patriotism
in the United States.

PENNsYLvANIA.-A very stupendous faud appears
TO have been committed by some Of the National
Republican presses which merits heavy reproach.
They have represented that the Irish anti jackson
meeting in Philadelphia called by 1706 gen
tlemon. The fact as stated by the Jackson papers,
Us, that 1T was called by only 100. Our friends
should not commit such gross mistakes. 1t shocks
the propriety of the fastidious Jackson presses
And after having made such an enormous blunder,
they should be in haste to correct it. One of the
Iew papers in Pennsylvania, which supports the
JACKSON cause at present. takes on its reputation
to quote its own words that there WERE mot fftv,
OF these Irish citizens entitled to a Vote They
must have an almighty sight of unnaturalzed
Hibernians in our sister cty BY and by we shall
hear from the Dutch, who arc thinking people,
and take time to consider. We believe that thew
arc nauralized; and we understand that they think
General Jackson a failure.

VETO AT PITTSBURG.

OF MIS- heroic determination to give n mortal
stao 10 tie Manufacturing interest of the country,
by destroying the United States Bank. On the
other hand, we have heard of but two persons who
have turned TO Jackson, on account of the Veto
and OF these two, one assigns the following
truly benevolent and christian-likc reason for tho
change. lie says he has money i'm hand, that he
wants to lay it. out in real estate, but the country
is now so prosperous, that he cannot make advan-
tageou' bargains. But, if the Bank is destroyed,
totc and he to haze glorious chance to speculate
upon the rain Of his neigh6ors.- Such in substance
II not IN words, rs tho reason assigned by of
the two acquisitions to the Jackson party in this
county. The motive is worthy the cause"
The Veto, while it has well nigh destroyed Jack
son in Pennsylvania and the West, has procured
him no coreativo benefit at the South He has
suffered fpm 1t in the estimation Of the enemies of
the Bank themselves. They approve the Veto in
deed, butao rejecting citizen has sanctioned the
crude soppisms upon which he rests it, or the mon
strous doctrines preached in it, relative to the re-
spective lights and powers Of the three Depart
mcnts of the Government. The voice of applause
which ha, assembled from the South is the voice of
notorious O1hcc- hunters, and
demagogres specializing upon the supposed popu-
iarity of Jacksons name. The solid sense, and
dlsnterested opinion, even of Virginia. we firmly
believe reprobate the assigned for the Veto
The time is probably not distant, when Virgil
MA will withdraw this limited approval. She
will suffer like the rest of the Union from deran

U. s. Bank mos, materially to affect the price of
her produce, the value of her real estate, and her
general prosperity. Her citizens of business will
miss the facilities which that Bank now furnishes
for commercial operations. Above all she viii
find, all Banks being an evil, that the only way o.
countcracting their oppressive tendency, is the po
Icy of sehecking one by the rivalry of others. In

we congratulate our readers, whether in the
country at home, on the evident decrease of the
Cholera in this city. The official reports for tn g
last two days, both of which will he found in dc.
tail In subsequent column. are decidedly favora-
BILE. On Saturday hundred and ttcenfy-sir ca
SEES, and Mirty-three deaths were reported for The
previous twenty -four hours-sereRtysiE of the ca
ses, and fourteen of the deaths, being within the
private practice of the physicians. Yesterday tho
new cases diminished to one hundred anil ten, and
the deaths to thirty.0Hc, exhibiting decrease of
sixteen cases, and tDo deaths. The number
ported yesterday in private practice, S1tyS sir
cases and tI1etue deaths, shownga decrease of ten
and tcO Deaths in contrast with the accounts
of the previous day.
This is indeed favourable. The disease has GER
tainly passed beyond tho utmost of its violence in
Philadelphia, and hereafter we may hope for daily
decrease.
The weather continues clear and delightful, and
the spirits OF our citizens begin to revive. 1t was
gratifying to observe the satisfaction which over
spread the countcnances of the thousands when
the official report was yesterday read them Mt the
Health Office. a few days longer, with care and
temperance, and we trust the danger will be over.
Among the deaths by Cholera on Saturday last,
we regret to mention that of Doctor e. e. Con-

was violently attacked by the disease at about three
o'clock in the morning, and ceased TO exist IN four
