portant results, we look forward TO the
appointment of such Boards Of Inspec.

situations.
This morning, all is life and anima-
ton. Our friends are every where greet
ing each other at the VICTORY, with
sunny faces; and, what is far better, all
are animated with the same spirit. All
are conscious that the battle has only
begun; and all are determined that their
new political armor shall not rust for
want of use. We have repulsed the
regulars at Quaire Bras must over

We have before us letter from William Cob
bett published in CObbett's Register of the 18th
of March, in which that sturdy beggar makes a
most furious attack upon all paper currency
and Banking operations, and auds General
Jackson as the greatest OF all men. This learn
ed member of Parliament remarks Of the Pre-
sident's refusal to re- charter the United States
Bank:
1T is by no means clear to me that the Pre-
sident has not done this thing in this speedy and
resolute manner, by way of retaliation upon US,
for what the Americans deem our insidiouS
measure of negro emancipation which is de-
scribed in the American newspapers as Z" a
mean and spiteful blow at the United States,
closely hidden under the cloak of hypOcrtical
humanity"
The President we suspect will be astonished,
when he reads Cobbett's letter, to find such ex-
tensive views of retaliation imputed to him. But
Goblet goes on to laud the General as some
thing more than human; as not only the hero
of two wars, but all the hero which these wars
produced-W ashington being in comparison to
Jackson, as scarcely worthy of mention. But
hear the vagabond:
eff my readers were made acquainted (and
they all soon shall be- with the history of the
life of this famous man; nay, with only a ff-
tieth part of the wonderful acts Of that life, they
would laugh to scorn the idea Of his being di-
verted from any settled resolution of his mind
Washington lUas q mere baby compared with
Jackson; his deeds shrink into nothing, when
placed before those Of his present SUCCESSOR
Wellington! oh! gracious God! One day Of the
real feats of Jackson surpass all the congregat-
ed and fabulous performances of the life OF
Wellington"
Will not some Of the Jackson prints borrow
of us this letter, and print it on satin; it de-
serves place beside the proclamation and the
protest.-U. s. Gaz

In looking over the last number of the An
mails of Liberality, Generosity, Public Spirit
&c" compiled and published by Matthew Ca.
rey, Esq, we were struck with the following
note in relation to the requests of Stephen G.
rard to the City of Philadelphia:
Notwithstanding these mighty sums | am Of
opinion that Mr.. Grard has not, quoqd hoe, the
least pretensons to the character of benevo
lent or liberal man. He clutched these massc,
of money to the last hour of his life and when
he could clutch them no longer, finally parted
with them, in the hope and expectation of rem
dering his name quasi immortal-and this end
he will accomplish; for as long as his coegeOr
the city lasts, so long will the memory of his
great requests endure. AS the passenger exa
mines the splendid houses scattered through the
city and bequeathed to the citizens, or the magn
| ficent Grard College, Grard will be referred to
as the donor. But when it Is considered how
very slender provision he made for his fami
| ly-that he made none whatever for his clerks
who were all turned adrft when his Bank con.
| Germs were clOsed-that the widow of his flg
debates, Mr.. Roberjeau, was not mentioned in
his willard that during his life he never be,
lieve, contributed $4,000 to any public object
unless it promised to bring in proper rate Of
interest, it is impossible to resist tie cOncu.
sion have drawn that to liberaity or bcneyO'
ence he had no claim whatever. On the subject
of his requests, $4,000. given 20 or25 years
since, to build plain college, with an annUd
endowment for its support, would have con-
duced more To his lasting and imperlshaOe DO
nor, than had he bequeathed $l5OOOOOOO I~
building colleges, hospitals, &c.
