From The Baltimore Republican aud .arg,e
{" WAVE OF PUBLIC opINIoN.r

We thought that the late contest for Governor, in
this State, had settled the question to the wishes
of the people in regard to the distribution Of the
proceeds of the public lands that having been made
one of the principal questions upon which the cleo
ton turned Yet we find Mr.. Johnson dsregarding
the public voice so emphatcally expressed on this
subject and urging his darling doctrine of distri-
button" with renewed zeal and ardor We do not
know whether the honorable gentleman entertans
the doctrine of one of his political eoadjutors, that
the representative should not be palsle by the will
Of his constr ueuts y but do know that the peo-
pie of this State know too well their real interests to
be In favor of tins apparent hobby of the Catocton
Sprout )" and we know also, that the "waye Of pub
lie opinion" will as has done in the honorable gen
temans case, dash the political bark Of any who
attempts to ride upon that question, not over the
mountains" but upon them, and then leave the adj
venturer " high and dry"-to a complete political
wreck.

JOSEPH GRAHAM, Esq.

Nachez correspondent asks if it is true
that we have recently published volume of
poems in Louisville. We can only saw that if
we have we don't know tive hope our pub
Usher will send Us copy. Our correspondent
(who knows us well,) proce, DIS to say that
some of our obgng biographers in the West,
have set US down as a ''natlve of Kentucky"
Kentucky is glorious State, and we are truly
sorry that our bographers are mistaken. How
ever, we cannot swear positively in the premi-
ses, as our recollection Of the event is not quite
clear and dstinct--but then the record places
our birth at least seven hundred miles from
Kentucky. We hope our biographies will correct
these errors in the ext edition.

We find that we have been greatly msunder
stood in the import of several ar ices which
have of late appeared in the Madisonian, on
the subject of the bill now before the Senate
for extending, to the 1st Of August, certain
revenue acts, and repeating the Distribution
act.
The inference drawn from those articles we
learn has been, that the President will IIeto the
bill, if passed by the two Houses. Now, we
have expressed our o1cn opinions as to the
measure, without reference to the President
We know nothing of his understanding
whatever from himself or any one connected
with him. What he will do he has divulged
to no onr--certainly not to us We are quite
sure he would not express his intention in re-
laton to any bill, in advance Of its passage
Whether he will or will not approve the bill,
time only can determine, We do not doubt
but that he will do what he may believe to be
right.

LETTER FROM GENERAL JACKSON
u

Sir--I have the pleasure to acknowledge the re-
cept of your of letter of the l4th inst, enclosing me
letters of introduction from Col K. Nj. johnson and
other gentlemen, and acquainting me with the OBJ
ects of your visit to this country, the agent of
the Young Mems Irish Repeal Association of New
York.
Nc individual can take deeper interest than do
in whatever concerns the welfare and happiness Of
the Irish people And there is nothing more grateful
to my feelings than the anticipation, authorized bv
the progress of liberal principles throughout the
world, that the day is not far distant when without
violence or civil commotion, Ireland will regain the
principles She lost in 1900, and be- possession of all
the blessings that flow from government deriving
its authority from the will of her people, and admin
stered with view to their security and happ ness
That the measures calculated to produce tins happy
result may be crowned with speedy success is my fer
vent prayer
But at the same time that express thus freely
my sympathes for that noble hearted and generous
people, and my hopes that the exertions they are
making peaceably and consttutionaly to recover the
Representative government may be successful it is
proper for me to say that do so without me aning
10 transcend that maxim which teaches us not to
interfere Extensively with the internal affairs of other
nations. The preservation of the principle on which
this maxim rests is far more important to the good
Of mankind than any benefit which can possibly be
obtained 10y departure from it, and there are no
people, am sure who would be less willing than
the Irish to occupy position which would bring into
question the justice OF the principle
Entertaining these views, it would give me great
pleasure to attend the meeting which you propose,
but the feeble state Of my health will not permit me
10 do So
Thanking you for the too favorable terms in which
you are pleased to allude to me personally, and
surfing you that the Irish blood which flows in my
veins will never cease, but with my life, alone to
beat in unison with those who have at heart the Sc.
curlty OF Irish Liberty | subscribe myself very
truly, Your obedient servant
ANDREW JACKSON.
To Thomas Mooney, Esq.
Agent of the Irish Repeal Association of
New York-Nashyille.

should change our opinion.

DEAR Sir / return you the Athens Gazette which
you handed me last night, and will not withhold the
expression of my decided approval of the sentiments
contained in MIR. Morris's letter to the editor They
are such as denote patriotic heart and mind. With
an embarrassed treasury consequent on transition
from state of plethora to a condition approaching
the opposte-with broken up and disordered cur.
rency, arising from the bursting of those nutnberess
bubbles which, for years past have engaged in their
chase the whole country-with the mechanical arts
greatly prostrated and industry suffering extensive
paralysis-wth the greatest and most important ques
tons now pending, both foreign and domestic which
at any preceding time have engaged the public func-
onaries--s this time for the spirit of faction to
have exclusive sway or for the country to be agtated
by the question of who shall succeed to the Presden-
cy three years hence 7 Personal abuse of mysefha
entered largely into the discussions in and out of Con-
gress This any man, who may be in this office, may
be ready to expect but should be most ready to
compromise with my bitter assaants in Congress by
seeing conceded to them any portion they may choose
of every day, for the display of their unsurpassed
elequence in abuse of me, if the residue Of their
time could be given to the public good Is this great
end to be sacrificed to crafty small clique of nous
ing politicians, who think that their petty schemes of
hatred or ambition are of more consequence than
the consideration of measures designed for general
relief;
intended, however, only to express my approval
OF the sentiments contained in MIR. Morris's letter,
and find myself betrayed into the above remarks.
Accept assurances Of my high respect
JOHN TYLER.

FOR THE MADIsoNIAN.

Mr.. EDITOR; find the following sentence in
an editorial of Saturdays Madisonian:
"The President signed the Distribution law on
the express condition hat the tarifofdutes should
not gobeyond20p cen. which express condition
is now TO be expressly violated. Two conse-
quences follow from this course of Congress
slonal action, one OF which is, that an attempt
is made to fix an unqualified Distribution law
on the country by fraud, which cannot be pass
ed on It's own intrinsic merits, and the other, Of
compelling the Executive u sign a law under
cover OF a proper tariff law, and under threats,
which his judgment and his patriotism might
equally repudiate."
Now, sir, viii you be kind enough TO state
whether the public is authorized to draw the ma
tural inference attending the above, by the Ere
