SPANISH WOMEN.

In Spain every thing is alike; the towns,
 the villages, the costumes of the men, those
 of tho women, in short, every thing looks us
 if cast in the same mould and, if all the la- dies arc not handsome, it may be asserted, that they all have grace and a fascination
 which IS inconceivabie, and constitutes what
 the SpaniarIs call saLerO; term to which
 no language furnishes an equivalent, because
 in no other country is there 10 be found what
 it expresses in Spanish. Virgil's rerG incessu
 petua deG seems to have been written express
 magic in their glance! You are almost
 tempted to say to them, Pray, do me the
 favor not to look ut me-" Add to these
 means of attraction, an enchanting voice,
 which admirably accords with the finest lan- guage in the world, the nobIest, and the most harmonious expressions; ands if you mean to keep your heart, you will not go into Spain. The black costume of those ladies, their robe, revealing their charming forms, is most becoming they take good care not 10 initiate the Preach women, in their per petual change of fashions. No hat or bon-
 net ever covered their heads and intercepted the fire of their eyes. The maniiilG covers their hair with skilful!y calculated negli- gence; when, for moment, 1t hides some Of their charnls, be certain, that very soon a Iucky cnhnce VIII nake you AIDplc hnenuS. The wealthy, in general, have mass said in their own house their wives, who are ex- tremely iDdolent, and do not rise till very late. frequently hear it in bed, Those who go to the churches, sometimes attend ten or U dozen massts and it may, be affirmed, that, during tliis whole time, nothing is fur ther from their thoughts than God. The church is the usual place for making assig- nations. The Spanish women are adepis in the language of the eyes, and of the fan; with these two ways of expressing them, selves, they have the talent to nuke their meaning perfectly understood. During the performance of the mass they keep flaming even in winter and. us neither l chairs nor stools are admitted into the they are continually on their | knees, or squatting on their heels, a position | far from graceful for a female.

GOOD DOCTRINE

In le!tor from Maj Campbell, late Treasu-
rer, in reply to an invitation 10 the Clarksburg
Convention we find the following Wing prin-
|ciples:
offer you these as my sentiments, which
hope in my absence you will present to your
Convention
!. One term only for the President, to guard
him against the temptation TO prostitute the
powers Of the Executive to obtain his re.elec-
ton.
E. No Sub Treasury system which increa-
ses the Executive power, already too great for
a republic, and which can be beneficial alone TO
the officers and other creditors Of the govern
ment.
8. No bankrupt law by the general govern
ment to be applied TO our State banks, which
would enable the Executive of the United
States to crush our state institutions and destroy
our state governments.
a. No discretionary powers in the hands
of the President to use and dismiss the banks
as it may suit h is sovereign will and pleasure,
as such power would throw the whole Of the
banking institutions of our country at the feet
of the President as supplicants for his favor or
miserable slaves Of his power.
5. No discretionary power Of the Secreta-
ry of the Treasury to issue Treasury niles ad
H6itum, as it would enable him to flood the
country with the most dangerous kind Of all
paper money.
6. No reorganization Of them militia, which
places them in the service of the United States
in time of peace, and under the absolute
command Of the President, as il violates the
Constitution, and lays the foundation of militia
ry despo:ism.
7. And no more of Mr.. Presiden. Van Blu
rem after his present term expires, as he has
recommended all these measures, and has con-
verted the whole power Of the Executive into
an electioneering machine for party purposes,
which, if not taken out Of his hands will demor-
alize the country, and convert the government
into an odous despotism.
Your fellow citizen, JNO. CAMPBELL.

EX-SPEAKER POLK PRESENTED BY A
GRAND JURY.


The Grand Jury, at the Sewer County Court,
in Tennessee, have PRESENTED Governor Polk,
ofthat State, as follows:
"The Executive OF our State, James X. Polk,
instead of being found at his post, executing the
laws, and deyising means for improving the
deplorable condition Of the country, and restor-
ing it to the prosperity it has lost, he, our said
Governor, is found trayersing the State, cons
Quoting an electioneering campaign for the
elevation Of others, and to keep in train the
system which is SO oppressive, and in power,
the rulers who ask power at such price.
This we present as a most serious grievance
"a derolection fduty in one who ought to be
q high functonary-an evil example OF others
who may be prompted to do the like, and which
in the end, will prove the overthrow Of our
free institutions.
"We therefore call for change of rulers
and in the spirit of that freedodI9ghich we SC
much prize, we call uponIevery man to inquire
and as he wishes to avert the horrors of Civil
War, that in November, each and every one
will appear at the polls, and by means Of the
ballot-box, make the change and revolution
effectual.

'sNO JoCKRYING ~

''No JocKEYING''
letter from General Jackson in reference
~ xertain passages in the great speech Of Mr..
fsi4k Mt the Nashville Southwestern Conven-
s,.,k. and the reply OF the ilustrious Kentucky
HS1a,or thereto, will be found in our columns
,I;a morning The latter is most admirable
rsner. and no far-minded man can read it with
est acknowledging the contrast its gentemanly
s1Se. its tranquil dignity, and its entire conclu-
ci4bness, presents to the rude, Incorporate, but
Effective attack Of the Ex-President.
The object of the Van Buren, managers in
q'nnnessee in getting General Jackson to write
ih;s letter is abundantly obvious. 1t was to
n.eate new controversy between General
IAckson and Henry Clay, and thus divert the
Hi.ention Of the people Of that State from the
lie between Martin Van Buren, and VIM.
N&nry Harrison. There was nothing person
Al in Mr.. Clay's remarks calculated to ruffle
tka equanimity Of General Jackson. The ed
iior ofthe Nashville Banner says: GAS 10 the
spcech--we heard every word Of it, and feel
duite sure that no unprejudiced man who was
present will refuse to accord to the distinguish
"a author all praise for the moderation of tone,
is guarded phraseology and especially the
very delicate andIappropriate manner in which
Mr. Clay alluded TO his relations with General
Jackson. He was particular in stating in the
announcement Of his remarks that he came
here only in compliance with the request ofthe
Ladies of Nashville-that he had previously
declined numerous applications o1simar char
acter from Gentlemen Of this pace-and that
one great objection he had TO coming, was an
apprehension that his visit al this particular
juncture might be supposed by some TO have
been made in spirit Of defiance or exutation,
with regard to the distinguished tenant of the
Hermitage supposition, he said which would
do him very great injustice, as no such feeling
had place in his bosom.
e. The same paper contains the following para
graph, which we doubt not, gives just expla-
nation Of the designs with which the ex-Presi-
dent wrote the letter. We add our protest
against any change Of nags on the Tennessee
course:
Vic has deliberately worked himself into a
rage generally, for the purpose ofputting Van
behind him, as he did at the race track, and
running the race himself in Tennessee-and,
ifhe can, with Mr.. Clay. We protest against
any change ofnags now, that the entries have
been made. The Undertook pony must rely
upon his own heels and bottom. "Old Truxton''
cnnnot be permitted to run the race of his pet,
however much he may desire it. Such thing
you'd be gainst all the rules and practice Of
die turf. Clear the track, then, for Harrison
and Van Buren,. Let us have fair race and
~ interfercnce-no jockeying-and our word
