+" Great Men Think Alike. - Many per,

General Jackson had made his model as d
statesman. 4 a hero, il was natural to
suppose he had copied, as FAR as the differ
ent circumstances Of the cases would admit,
no less a parsonage than Napoleon Bona
pafte. But We believe very few have ever
imagined that he had derived any Of hts
political sentiments or notions from thai
source; and, above all, tbat his peculiar
ideas of banks and banking we're from the
held If the great Corscau Imperial School.
But late French work by Baron Pelt, q
member Of the Chamber OF Deputies, and,
under Bonaparte, member of The Council
Of State, where he had abundant opportu
nifty to become acquainted with the sent
meuis and opinions Of that distinguished
character, diseloses some information OF
this subject that is worthy of attention. --
The work To which We have alluded con.
talns many Of those opinions; one of which
we have copied for the amusement as well
as the instruction of our readers. Ii may
perhaps have tendency to lessen their re-
spect for General jackson as an original
genus; but II will show, at the same tune,
that he modelled his opinions by a lofty
standard--one who was {" born 10 com.
mdnd," and who suffered no ordinary OBJ.
structlon to cheek his career IN the race of
glory, and no scruples to hinder his pro.
cress in the path OF ambition and power
Ii would seem that Bonaparte was troubled,
among other things by national bank,
lie found il difficult TO manage this moneyed
power. The following are his sentiments

Mr.. Webster and The Hartford Conren.
tlon.--lhere never was more greundless
caIumny than that which charges Mr.. Web.
ster with being connected, in any wav or
form, with the Hartford Convention. The
Hartford Convention was holden 10 the. WIN
ter Of lSl4-'l5. Mr.. Webster was then
member of Congress. Congress assembled,
on the proclamation Of Mr.. Madison, iu
September, and Mr.. Webster was in his
seat early 10 the session. When he left
New Hampshire, where he then lived, no
proposal had been made by any State TO
hold any Convention nor had such project
been agtated: il is believed, BY any person.
The Government of the State Of New
Hampshire had no part IN the Convention.
Two counties on the river sent delegates,
but, as a State, New Hampshire bad no con.
Germ IN IL. Mr.. Webster remained at
Washington through the session, or until
one of II. las, days, until the Hartford Con-
yenilon was over, and until the news Of
peace arrived. When al home, his resi-
dence was at Portsmouth, a hundred miles
from the counties which sent delegates
Thus, neither from Mr.. Webster's location,
when at home, nor from bis public station
and employments, at the time the Conven
ton was held, could he have had any con.
nexlon with this body, unless by correspon.
dence and, after twenty years search, not
a scrawl OF pen can be found which shows
the slightest connexlon Of Mr.. Webster with
the Convention, or any Of lis proceedings.
he truth IS, he was never consulted IN re.
spect to the propriely Of holding this Con.
venilon, ard ne never gave II the least aid
or countenance. The country is challenged,
the members of the Hartford Convention
now IN Van Buren's ranks are challenged,
10 galnsay single word Of this statement.
A. to the published proceedings Of The
Convention, MIR. Webster himself thus
speaks, in bis celebrated speech, delivered
IN $50, IN reply to Col. Hague:
Il have nothing 10 do, sir, with the Hartford
( Convention. lis journal. which the gentleman
mas quoted, never read. 50 Tar as those proceed

borrowed capital, are we'll known. He has
no charity for such persons. Bonaparte al
SO entertained opinions somewhat peculiar
respecting merchants who we're so unfortu.
nate as to have become inso!vent.-
IL think too" said this enlightened statesman,
that every bankruptcy ought to be considered
fraudulent, until il has been ascertained that il
was no; so. The instant that failure takes plsee,
the bankrupt should either be put into the public
prison, or confined 10 his oun house, as the Judge
might see fl; and he should not be permitted TO
resume business before he should have paid all
his creditors IN full"
These quotations seem to show that the
maxim at the head Of this article is founded
10 truth. The probability is that Genera
jackson was not acquainted with Bona
parties sentiments respecting banks anC
banking, and yet the similarity IS 50 stnk
ing, that it cannot be accounted for, excep
upon the ground that the opinions anC
thoughts Of great men are apt to run IN the
same srack.

Railroad accident and remarkable eS
cdpe.-As the two O'Clock tram OF cars from
Newark was rounding Bergen Hill, yes;er.
day, at the highest decllvily of the road, the
locomotive ran off the track lacking dla.
gonlal course across the opposite track 10
the south side OF the road. which was guard.
ed BY a stone wall four feet thick. The en-.
CINE forced the wall down a declivity OF
from 80 to 40 feet distance of nearly a
rod, the three succeeding cars following,
aud the 18th and 9th cars taking slant TO
the north side of the road, where no wall
guarded from danger, and running within
one foot of the dechvlty. The preserya.
ton of nearly seventy lives, and the escape
of every car from going over the preclplee,
were owing to the check given To the loco
motive by the walt, and 10 the slow pro
gress Of the cars at the time. The lucomo.
tive was much injured by the conclusion,
but neither the passenger cars uor passeD.
gers received any harm.

Dr. Sir
Your note of the 9th inst, ha
been received, and in compliance will
your request, | have read the article il
the Advocate to which you direct my at
tention. ] do not recoloct the particular
conversation alluded toby Mr.. Graves, but
have no doubt, the expression imputed tc
me, was made. Dyest this matter of the
unkindness which Mr. Graves seems tc
feel towards you, and his own differences
and | see no harm in it; for it is evident
that spoke of the opinions which under
stood you to entertain of the original in
stltuton of slavery, as moral problem. |
never considered you an abolitionist on
the contrary, understood you to maintain
that you did not consider the inhabitants
of the Southern States responsible for the
introduction ofslavery amongst them; that
IT had been forced on them by the cupid
tyofa Tyranncal Government over which
they had no control that it had now
taken such deep root that it could not be
erudicated but by a CONFUSION which
would destroy the Union, and inlict a
greater evil on the community, than those
sought to be removed. Ihave understood
you to say that much misrepresentation
prevailed both in Europe and the Northern
States, as to the condition and treatment
of slaves, and that if they could be con
WINGED that the African race in the United
States were in Il better eita'~don ana nap
pier than thousands of themselves, it would
tend much to allay the excitement among
them; and | know that you frequently
spoke of writing on this subject.
My feelings towards yourselves and the
conductors Of the Advocate, are kind and
friendly, and it has been source ofmuch
regret to me, that either party should feel
it their duty to introduce my name into
the debate between you. Your connection
with me justfies your appeal, and the fl
deity with which you have discharged
your engagements, and the correctness Of
your department while member of my
family, entities you to frank declaration
of any fact of which | may have any
knowledge, and in which you may have
any interest.
hope that yourselves and your antago-
nists may feel at liberty to bring your
controversy to a speedy close, as it is ev-
identity becoming too personal to be agree
able to the parties or their friends.
