Justice to Gen. jackson.

The following extract is taken from very
able article on the United State. Bank, in the
Boston Courier, warm Wing paper, The n.
\. New Era says: at is an extraordinary &C.
acknowledgement, considering the source from
whence it came. The writer says speaking Of
the condition in which we find the L. S. Bank
and the county at the present time, that
at is one of the most unfortunate con-
sequences Of the present state of things,
that it goes very far towards justifying
the violence which Gen. JACKSON and
his party ran into during the dispute of
the re-charter. The great mass of the
people who do not feel competent to
Judge Of the details in complicated pccu.
mary transactions, and who take up with
the results only, will settle down on the
conviction that, whatever might have
been the errors Of judgment in JACKSON,
he has proceed right at bottom AMI GER
'ainIy honest - and that, on the other
hand, the advocates Of the bank have not
merely prored ,crong in their reliance
upon II, but have exposed themselves by
theIr course, to excite the inevitable sus.
plcion, however unlounded in fact, that
they, from personal or party motives,
continued to sustain it, notwithstanding,
and IN spite of consciousness in their own
minds that it was doing wrong. Even
those of us who will be least inclined TO
approve of tho doctrines or policy of
Jackson, must be constrained 10 adm,
that if the re-charter had been likely TO
result to any state of things like that in
which the bank now finds itself, tho
VETO put upon it by him must be re-
garded as a fortunate and wise measure,
One consequence, and most unfortunate
one, OF the course of Mr.. Bddlc, is there
tore TO place Gen. Jackson in the light
OF benciactor to the country, in that very
particular in which he was charged by
the Wing party with having done it the
most injury"
