OBITUARY.

Died, at his residence in Jefferson county,
on the 7th inst, WILLIS McDONALD,
Esq, aged eighty years.
The deceased was a soldier of the Reyo-
entered the service of his
native State (Sou,h Carolina) at the age Of
sixteen. He served under Gen. Moultrie
at the siege Of Charleston-was taken pris-
oner by the British-reIeased on parole
and, at the end of two years, exchanged.
He afterwards served under Gen. Marion
until the close of the war-was present at
the battles of Eutaw Springs, and of Bacon's
Bridge, and variety of other engagements
with the British, Indians, and Tories.
Up to the time of his death, Mr.. Nc
Donald enjoyed almost uninterrupted good
health, and at eighty years Of age, was kill
ed by the fright and fall of horse, which
younger men would, perhaps, have hesitated
to mount.
The deceased had been resident Of this
county for thirty nine years--and has left a
widow to whom he was married fifty-seven
years ago. His children, grand and great
grand children, number seyenty-nine.
Through life, Mr.. Mcdonald maintained
the character Of good citizen and an
honest man. He was devotedly attached to
the principles for which in his youth he con.
tended, while battling in defence of his ma
tive soil-and never failed to take lively
but temperate interest in the administration
of the government and the selection of pub
lie servants.
For fifty-ive years the deceased had beer
an exemplary member of the Baptist church
and, although his departure was sudden, we
have every assurance, from the character
which he maintained as Christian, ant
from his uniform declaration, that he was
"ever ready'' to obey the summons Of his
Great Commander, that for him, the ssdarl
valley" and its shadows hid no terrUrs.

HARRISON IN MICHIGAN

The Detroit Advertiser says:-We can
issue our friends abroad, thatthe nomination
of General Harrison is received with the
most cheering enthusiasm by the Wings OF
Michigan. They deem him the man; and
Notwithstanding the slightest personal pref.
erences which may have existed here, as
elsewhere, there is not single Wing in the
State who will not give his hearty support.
The electoral vote of Michigon is secure Cor
the hero of the Thames. The expression
of doubt Of this, by the Wings Of any other
State will be deemed an insult. We have

One ofthe most respectable political meet

that place on the 18th January. sNever
before, /" says the Wing, shave we seen the
same ardent spirit actuate our political
friends. From the staunch old Republican
in the chair to the veriest STRIPPING in the
crowd, but one sentiment prevailed-hostil-
ity, deadly and incorporating hostility, to
the principles and practice of the present
administra tion-and firm resolve to use
every honorable means to secure the triumph
of the venerable hero and statesman-WIL-

THE IalpuLsE AT TIE HEART.

! THE IMPULSE AT THE IIEAIfT.
{ On Tuesday evening last, notwilhslR md
ing the foggy weather and muddy ets,
the old Thesare, in this city, was The scene
of one Of the largest and most jealous meet
ings that ever has been known, we presume.
on q similar occasion, in the Metropolis Of
the Union. Il was meeting Of the inde-
pendent freemen of tho District, convened
to express their opinions of the men and
measures that possess the White House,
and to aid in the election of General HART
son to the Presidency. In a similar man.
|ner meeting was called in behalf OF Gene
ralJackson in 1927, which numbered, wa
are informed, about so persons. On this
occasion, the old Theatre was crowded from
front to rear, and from pit to gallery, by the
nnbought and unterriied democracy Of the
District.
As citizens Of this District are disfranchi-
sed, people at a distance may he disposed
to attach little Importance to q demonstra,
ton Of this sort. his, however, to be con!
sidered that, the principal reason why they
were DISTINGUISHED was because it was fear
ed that the influence of government, over
mems minds and votes here, would be so
great as really to render the privilege of vo-
ting worse than nugatory. Bat whatever
force there may have been in the reason, it
is now pretty certain that the fragrant abu-
SEES, tyrannical Impressions, and proscriplive
and intolcrant conduct of this administra-
lion, and a familiar acquaintance with the
men who compose it, have arrayed two
thirds, if not fve-sixths, of this community
in open opposition to the whole.
The meeting adjourned with nine hearty
cheers for HARRISON and TYLER, and inme-
diately marched in procession to Mr.. Clay's
lodging, where his appearance at the door
was welcomed with round of cheering.
The procession, with their torches, transpa-
rencies and notices, made an appearance
unusually impressive.
The loud 'shnzzas for Tippecanoe.' are
now heard in almost every street, and under
the very caves of the Palace. The shouts
of the multitude have penetrated the recess.

and their inmates tread less confidently up

fierce cravings Of that remorse which
comes too late.

eff lam not grossly deceived, the Signs
ofthe times indicate that General Harrison
will not only be very formidable but a
successful competitor of Mr.. Van Buren, for
the Presidency. The fact that he has done
SO much service in the field, and inthe coun-
Gil, and held so many responsible places Of
trust, without the slightest imputation upon
his integrity, will recommend him very
strongly to the people, and carry many Of
the purest and most patriotic of our citizens
to his support. Your ncighbor, MIR Richie,
may flutter and founder like duck in q
mud puddle. He may talk Of his ten thou
sand majority, and affect the most perfect
confidence, but am perfectly satisfied Vir-
ginia is lost to Mr. Van Buren,. She cannot,
consistently with her principles, sustain the
latitudinous and monarchical measures Of
this administration, and bind herself to the
car of Executive power forever. Mark my
prediction-Van Buren, cannot get the cleo
toral vote of Virginia.

The Wing meeting in Mobile on the 22d
inst.: was brilliant affair, Gov. Gayle, Mr..
Langsdon and Maj. Mayrant, delivered adj
dresses upon the occasion. There is to be
a State Convention at Tuscaloosa in June.
The Wings of the State seem 10 be ANNA
ted with a probable determination to do or
die at the presidential election.
The enthusiasm of the great west for Har-
rison, is increasing daily. We learn from a
private letter, that %, 900 copies of Judge
Burnet's speech have been circulated among
the people. They do business with a big
auger in the West.

THE HERO OF TIpPECANoE.

With the proudest feelings of American
citizens, we lay before our readers copi-
Gus and animated sketch of the life and cha
racter Of the nert President of tho United
States. We say merit Prcsident-for, with
the feelings now abroad through the whole
country, we hold the election Of Gen. VIM.
Henry Harrison to be just about as certain
an event as that the time of holding the
election will come. The evidence to sus-
tain this opinion, flowing in upon us from
every quarter, is irresistible. And yet, with
the folly of the ostrich, which, by thrusting
its head in The sand, i,nagines, because It
can see nothing, it is unseen, the leading
administration papers are yet affecting to
despise the strength of Harrison; and, as
though blind and deaf to all the evidences of
popular viii! around them, still talk Of the
reelection of Mr.. Van Buren,. The Rich
mond Enquirer the other day claimed New
York, New Jersey, Ohio, and Illinois for
Van Buren,. In sober earnest, Mr. Richie,
do not deceive yourself thus. Your friends
may bet, and they will be ruined. N. York
will go for Harrison by fifteen thousand.
Mark that, Mr.. Richie. Ohio will 90 for
him by fifteen thousand. Mark that Illi-
nois by .fpe, and Indiana by ten thousand.
Set down these, Mr. Richie. Ave, and set
down upon the same side half Is score of 9TH
er States, which will aid to elect him by a
triumphant majority. And is he not worthy
Of the high honor? Let the proud record Of
his ife--the evidences of his wiseunn IN. tire
council, and of his brilliant career in the
| feld-furnish reply.

CHANGES.


The Ohio Confederate, published at Co
lumbus, heretofore an administration paper,
has come out strongly for Harrison and Ty-
Ter. In Indiana, it is thought there will not
be even solitary loco foco paper in six
months from this date. The most violent
paper of that character in the State, has al
ready given notice of ITS expected dissolu-
ton.
Hon. do you like i?-1'he farmers in the
West and North West now discuss politics
very Significantly. They have but little to
say about Sub Treasures, the United States
Bank or State Banks, bat whenever Wing
meets Loco Foco, he asks him, hoio he
likes tiff he has got enough Of 1t, and
,rhether he ,cants more? These questions,
with the low price of all products. and the
inability to raise money for taxes at any
price, answer all the purposes of the bes'
logic in the world.

HARR1SON IN INDIANA.
All parties in Indiana acknowledge that
General Harrison will carry that State by
majority. Loco-focoism stands
aghast, utterly dismayed and COMPOUNDED, at
the popular enthusiasm in favor OF the old
patriot. The "log cabins" will pour forth a
swarm Of hard listed votes in November,
which will causea trembling among the Of

with triumphant power the cause of truth
[and ofihe country cannot be found within
the broad limits Of the ssyoung Giant State of

with shout hatreaced the clouds and came
echoing back from them like thunder-clap.
Gen. Reazin Beall was President Of the
Convention and there were 10 Vice Presi-
dents and 8 Secretaries. The President and
several Of the Vice Presidents end Secreta-
ries were well known as having been origi-
nally among the warmest supporters of Gen
eral Jackson.
The Ohio papers are filled, from begin
ming to end, with such enthusiastic accounts
Of the Convention and its proceedings, that
we scarcely know what to copy. The fol
lowing extracts Of a letter, which we find in
the Cincinnati Republican, may give some
idea of the glorious spirit that prevailsd--a
epirit, that sparkled and glowed and flashed
like conilagration.
Who, on reading these things, can doubt

Ohio yeomanry will give such majority for
old Tippecanoe as the State has never YET
given any Presidential Candidate?
