Benjamin Watkins Leigh--Great efforts have
been made and are still making, by the jackson
party in many of the Southern counties, TO get
up instructions to the members of the Legislature
against voting for Mr.. Leigh for the u S. Sc
nate at the next session. The whole power Of
the Jackson party is levelled at this gentleman
His bold and independent course in the Senate
has called down the vengeance Of the whole Col
lar party. We are happy to believe however,
that the effort to in)ure him will be unavailing.
The Petersburg Intelligercer says that letters
have been received by its Editors from several
counties in which attempts had been made to get
up instructions against Mr.. lie gh's re- reelection,
which enable them to state upon the best autho-
ri'y that the scheme will assuredly fail. The
ground Of this movement is that most in vogue
with the jackson party at the present time
namely, the Bank question. Mr. Leighs pre-
ference OF a just course towards that institution
(aithough he is no friend TO it) and his dcnunci
ations Of the arbitrary acts of the President ar
the " head and front of his offending" And tn
jackson party hope 10 prevent his election b
playing upon the prejudices of the people in low
er Virginia against the Bank. But the device j
too shallow to succeed, The real encroachment
Of Executive power have swallowed up the fan
cied evils of a National Bank Honest men, VIII
are opposed TO the Bank, see the necessity c
putting down Presidential Tyranny rather thai
