LET MATTERS BIZ UNDERsroop.

In an article copied into the Richmond Hnqui-
rer from the Jeffvr>ou Herald, (jua dcceascd at
liarpers-Fery.) Col. Mason, OF Fre,leriek, i.
set down amsng those named as probable Jackson
candidates for Congress There mus, be some
mistake here. We have good authority for say
ing. land indeed his long -professcd principles
ought to be a sufficient guarantee for the fact,
that Col. J. NJ. Mason une9uivocally condemns
the l'rooiamdfioni disspprovss the Presidents
course in relation to the D~eosiies; strongly re-
probates the PrO:-St and all its kindred assurnp-
tons; aud is decidedly inf Van buren,. Il is
but fair to add thai he does no, admit to Congress,
the authority TO establish Q National Bank; bur
he would give to the present Bank its chartered
privileges. Is we are mistaken in this correction
of error in relation TO Col Mason's opinions and
principles, We can EASILY be set right. Aud We
i"n, venture to adj..tha il ne should be eandi-

ANOTHER JACKSON OUTRAGE

We learn from the Philadelphia Gazette that
a base attempt against the person Of the Hon.
J.. t. WATHouGH, member Of Congress and
he wing candidate for reelection, was made
on saturday evening last by some wretches
IN the upper end Of the county. Mr.. Wat
mough was in attendance at a public meeting
oil his constituents, TO which he had boen Ia.
ken oy Daniel FILTER, Esq. Of Kensington, 10
his wagon; and while he was speaking, some
miscreants took out the Inch pins from each
axle-tree OF the wagon, knowing that he in
tended TO return by the same conveyance
The consequence was, that soon after the
wagon lehi the place Of meeting, IL was upset.
and but for wonderful interpretation Of Pro.
videnee, both the gentlemen inside would
have been killed.
