happened that at that time when Mr. +.
had succeeded in inducing the National
Republicans TO believe that he was sim
cerely ,riih them in politics, he was also
equally fortunate in satisfying both the
other parties that he was really one Of
them. AT that period Mr. Henry Bull
repeatedly said that Mr. Francis was so
committed to the Jackson party that he
dare not accept the nomination Of the
Nationals-that he therefore could not
do so without running his character. Mr.
F. was therefore reluctantly compelled
to abandon the idea of reaching the OBJ
ect of his hopes on that occasion. He
has, however, seen fit to select the pres
ent crisis to offer himself candidate for
public favor; or, at all events, he has per-
mittod T.. II. Potter, Walter Paine, jun
John r. Waterman, and two or three
other persons of far less consideration, to
place him before the public in what he
himself confesses TO be dishonorablc
situation. We should think that by this
time that gentleman must be nearly rea-
dy to adopt the language used by his
great patron, Elisha II. Potter, at the
last January session of the General AS
sembly.-When Mr. Robbins had beaten
MIR Potter in the race for Senator-the
latter gentleman observed that eff God
Almighty would take care Of his (Pot-
ter's) friends, he would without difficulty
take care Of his enemies himself. Now
we venture to say, that Mr. F. has a task
to perform, in taking care of his friends,
which will prove quite as difficult as that
of which MIR Potter complained. A
couple Of these new friends of Mr. Fran
cis' have recently published letter ad-
dressed to Mr. Hazard containing the
most unprincipled falsehoods. In their
eager pursuit for office, they entirely
lose sight Of the best interest of their
candidate, and have given him the un-
kindest cut imaginable-but we shall
hear more about the falsehoods contain
ed in that letter hereafter.

I'll start Joel and the company of for

got their clothes pretty much mended up,
and they look quite tidy. l should not
feel ashamed to see 'em marched through
any city in the United States.
II is MT likely l shall have anything to
do under my commission very SON.
For some say there'll be no more fight
ing in the country while Mr. Clay Ives,
if it should be thousand years. He
got master knack Of pacifying folks,
and hushing up quarrels as you oversee.
He's stopt all that fuss in South Carroll
ma, that you know was jest ready to blow
the whole country sky high. lie slept
up to 'cm in Congress and told 'em what
sort of bill to pass, and they passed il
without hardly any jaw about it. And
South Carolina has hauled in her horns,
and they say she'll be as calm as a
clock now. And that isn't the only
quarrel Mr. Clay has stopt. Two olNLe
Senators, Mr. Webster and Mr. Poindex-
ter, got as mad as March hairs at each
other. They called each other hard names
and looked cross enough for wecl to
bite board nail off. Well, after Mr.
Clay got through with South Carolina,
he took them in hand. He jest talked
to 'em about five minutes, and they got
up and went and shook hands with each
other, and looked as loving astwo broth
ers.
So as there is likely to bc peace now
all round the house for some time to
come, Pam in kind Of luandary what
course to steer this sumner. The Pre-
sident talks of taking Il journey down
east, and he wants ne to 60 with him,
because Pm acquainted there, and can
show him all about X. He has great
desire to 60 as far IS Downingville, and
get acquainted with Uncle Joshua, who
has always stuck by him in oil weathers
thro' thick and thin. The President
thinks uncle Joshua is one of the repub-
lcan pillars of New-England, and says
he shall always have the post Office as
long as he lives, and his children after
him."

COUNTY MEETING.

An adjourned County meeting of the
National Republican frecmen, was held
at Duricc's Tavern, in Portsmouth, last
Tuesday afternoon at Q o'clock.-Ihc
Hon. Robert Lawton onciatcd as Chair
man, and Hon. Samuel Clarke, Secre-
tary. The meeting was very fully at
tended by some Of the most respectable
and wealthy farmers of The county. Sc
vcral gentlemen addressed the meeting
in a manner highly gratifying TO all who
had the pleasure of being present on that
occasion An able and interesting Adj
dress, was reported by The committee ap-
pointed at previous meeting for that
purpose, which, together with the follow
inc resolution, was unanimously adopted
by the mecting:-

ciatcd with him in the National Republi-

tained by us; and that we will therefore
use all fair and honorable means to Sc
cure their success at the coming cleo

had they confined themselves TO doing
us the favor Of extending its circulation,
we should have thanked them heartily for
their labor and trouble. In one respect,
however, the conduct ofthese papers, in
this matter, is in very good keeping with
their general character We allude to
the low and malicious attack upon Mr.
j. G.. SHAW, Of this town, the bearer of
that circular, who is shamciully aspcrscd
in his private character, for a fair and
honest discharge Of the duty entrusted to
him. We are ignorant of :he nature of
the assault which the writer would make
on Mr. S. for transactions in Cohasset
some forty years back but we are con-
fidcnt that there is no man in this COM
munity of n respectable standing, who
will not cry shame on this attempt 10
wound the peace of an estimable family,
and to stab an individual in his private
relations for political effect 1t is said
also, in these papers that Mr. Shaw was
guilty Of somo unworrnntablo language
as to the capture Of the Chesapeake by
the Shannon, during the late war. We
arc authorized by Mr. S. to state, that
that, or any similar language, by whom
soever charged, is most falsely and wan
tonly imputed to him. But, whether
true or false, il would little become, we
think, either the writer for the Micro
cosm, or the valiant editor ofthe Repub-
lican, or some Of their warmest suppor-
ters in this place, or even the Amalgama-
tion Governor himself, to be very nice in
scanning the language oftheir fellow cit
izens at that particular period as to pub
lie events.-One thing is ccrtain-Mr
Shaw went out into the country in an O..
pen and manly manner, at the request of
many Of the most respectable citizens of
this place, to invite our fellow citizens Of
the county to free conference, as to the
best means Of promoting Gov. Arnold's
're-election. This duty he executed with
unexceptionable fairness. We leave it
to the writer in the Microcosm to deter
mine whether conduct like this is descrv-
ing of the abuse he has heaped on Mr.
/ S., or whether he would deem it more
honorable to be sent out (wo won't say
by whom) in the character Of political
Spy, to attend a meeting of his political
opponents, and then to distort and vilify
proceedings, which he had not the cou-
rage to witness.

THE ANTI.MAsONIC LEADER.

The very cnviable distinction of Lead
ing the political antimasonic party, seems
now to be accorded to that great mana
ger, Elisha r. Potter, who; last June,
declared in the General Assembly that
his father was mason, and that he be-
lievcd him to be as good man as ever
lived-that he, (Mr p. was the LAST
man in the world that would ever Join
that UNioLY and DANGEROUS party."-
Mr. Potter, moreover, has ridiculed the
antimascns more than any other man in
the State. We will mention one anec-
dote he has told over and over again in
every town from. .Little-Rcst hill to Pro-
violence, by way of exhibiting his views
upon anti-masonry. This same Mr. Pot
ter has frequently said, that in Boston a
few years since a large, well dressed
negro fellow drove fine pair Of horses
to gcnteel public house, and landed a
very beautiful ,chite ady,who Immediate
ly took a parlor for her own usc.-The
black gentleman who was understood by
the landlord to be the coachman Of the
lady, drove off with the carriage but
he soon made his appearance and en-
quircd for his pJe.-Your wife, said the
astonished landlord, what do you mean,
you impudent scoundrel '--What do l
mean, replied the darky'-why l mean
tha. the lady l brought here just now is
my wife. The landlord Immediately has
tened to the lady's room, and asked her
what all this meant-saying that her
coachman claimed her as his wfe!-O,
bless you my dear sir, said the lady, don't
be astonished-that colored gentleman
is really my husband. How in the name
of wonder came you to marry that negro!
said the andlord.-IIow came to mar
ry that negro, sir: why sir, my sister has
done infinitely worse than that-worse
than that, cried the frightened landlord!
how is that possible, and what in crea-
ton did your sister do?-Wby sir, she
married an anti-mason. The above sto.
ry, which we verify believe Mr. Potter
made out Of whole cloth, has been told
by him an hundred times, at public pla-
ces, and in the hearing fmultitudes-let
HIM deny this assertion if he dare
What think you, gentlemen of the anti
masonic party, Of leader who would in
dulge himself in such manner, and at
your expense?

FRUITS OF AMALGAMATIO

The following spirited and well written
communication is signed by some Of the
most respectable Jackson men in North
Kingstown, and shows in strong and
manly language the estimation in which
the recent union between the leaders of
the Anti Masonic and Jackson parties,
is held by honest men. The persons
whose names are subscribed to the doc.
ument have been among the earliest and
most active friends of Gen. Jackson in
Rhode-lsand. The Hon. Noel Free
born is well and advantagcously known
to the lreemen of this State. He was
elected in 1929 Jackson Senator, and
held that place for two years, when he
voluntarily resigned. We commend this
communication to the careful perusal of
every honest Jackson man into whose
hands it may fall.

letter, containing an icy-cold ackrow-
ledgmcnt on his part that he shall vote

freezing words, "1he pror is satisfactory

speaks volumes-it speaks a language
not to be misunderstood. Gov. Fenner.

temperament; he never likes or dislikes
by rule-he loves his friends, and hates,
politically his enemies with all his
might. Gov. Fenner has no soIicitude as
to the fate Of the anti-masonic Jackson
