 We have this week collected some further tartcu.. lars O rater SpecuatioGf relating to, inc late a,. aemp upon the life Of the President of the U States From all that we gather; we dObt that the yOu"g man Lawrence wae crazy, al any aflct. cd whh monOnaHia, which in effect anou0ts 10 the same fhing.

Poindexser, other Senators, we should think it ought is he dsnr. "Let him who is without hlame cast the frs, s,ope." For our part, hDWeeer, repeat, do believe it the effect of any thing ese than insanity. His assertion that Gen. Jaeason had killed. his father; that he was ihe righfl king of this country. and Gen. Jackson an usurper and other expressions of simar character all go o Prove lha, hs was maniac. ~
 F We learn, verbally from the l7,h District, that ct tire Whg Coavrn,iou cu Monday last, a Salisbury Hollow. Gen. CHARLES F.

 4 EfonR-ap Lasr !-It will have heen perceived, hy te:ererce the eorrespondr nee in our lac, paper, shatgEs Jacksna nary, in order, is boldly affirmed hy ef,he leslsEss to Rseyent be pid frnm bolt ing, Issr insnaer so,i"n ias1 the H"upe oG Rep ,esen,ntirss have ali elections hereafter done by eipa roee iusead of by ballot. The reason for the in ,rodurtion of such rcpnlu,ion the present time ie she eisc,iop of puhiic printer It s well known ,ha, ~ .l.nSa . gresess rrniers; aad that each Congress elects the priaser far the succeedrg one. Nov it 1s believed, hs, obnoxious is Mir. Blair, of the Globe, to some f,he Jackson memera of Congress, ,ha, upon vote n the usaal manner, 6y 6aof, he he elected. lleacs the introduction of the ripa uoce. or wha ussd ao be called in Connecticut the sfGndMp mode of vnt- iag. ahai every Jackson member (he he Van Buren er Whita parisans) who shall dare vote ndepe"d- eRiy of pary Wammeis sha he mark ed aod ahused in lhe columns ofthai chasie vehrle oi the party, the Globe. Now for asrrelves, should no, regard it rash-one inode may he good as aoo,her-bu, it has long heen iheme of reproach by many ofhe leaders af she tsrasders Jackson partyin this s,ase-,hose vhs pretend he vry democratic, bu, are in ac. on- y one remove from monaschis!-that such method of voting should he tolerated in Connscicuf Bu, their tone is chaOged-a s oar pMrty, eay they, sud not yosrs. that has tie Bumcrieai strength and power, snd s therefore right that the screws should De put upon such dare independently! Such sshe consistency, and such amongst the beauties of Feieral.V Vaa. .Buren- -Jacksonism!
 We mentioned last week that John Davis, the Gov. ernor of aSassachuse,s had been elected Senator to Congress in place of Mir. Sisbee. II now appears, that in that reqnirea eoncnrrent instead of j0int sfho,h houses elect and that though the tower house had chosen Mr. Davis hy large majoriy oR the sixth ballot, The Senate the first ballot came to she salo wing resu 1: Whole number of voirs 40- of which Joha 0. Adams had 2l, John Davis l3. Wm. Bayies 3, Isaac c. Bales 3-conseqsestly Mr. Adams whs ehose9 by ihs, house. Aud we perceive by some of the Bosi0a paperS that h is believed tho House will recesle iom teis choice and also elect Mir. A. The desire retain Gov Davis in hs present station. he has just been reelected by great majority sad the choice is calculated to produee harmeny mong the Wings in all sections of the siaie. With Mr. Adams sad Mr. Webster in the Senals, Massa. shsses,s wil present array ofsaent uneinaIed by any ssa.e ia shs Ua;ss. <, rrts/
