row for ST. Louis, deemed il Of sufficient i'm
portance TO send you few lines in advance
Of my next publication.
1t appears from the letter Of Mr.. Phariss,
who writes from Mcdonald, the county seat
Of Barry, that an Intelligent Delaware indian

The osteEsible object OF which is said to

not less interesting than alarming speculations
of Mr.. Pharss as 10 the probable cause and

popular man Of Barry county.
In few words the Boston Post very salts
factorily defines the position Of John Quincy
Adams. It says:
jefferson said that the democracy of the
South were the natural allies of the democracy
Of the North. The federalists know this, and
finding that they cannot conquer the democracy
of the. North and South united, have always
sought 10 divide them, even at the cost of the
Union. This is now the scheme of the Abo-
litionists, (the tools Of federalism.) of John
incyAdams, who was reared in the hot
bed of federalism, and acted with them as one
of their chief men until Mr.. Jefferson's cleo
ton convinced him that neither the numerical
strength, nor the treason of federalism, was
sufficient to put down democracy. Then he
betrayed his confederates by turning informer,
and joined the democrats for power and profit.
Having reached the goal Of his ambition. the
Presidential chair, by bargain with Mr.. Clay,
and pledge,to Daniel Webster to restore the
federalists to power--those old associates
whom he had accused Of treason-he thought
his position impregnable, and that he could
defy opposition; but the democracy of the
South and the North united and hurled him
from his Il.gotteD place, elected the patriot
Jackson, and restored the nation TO the high
position in which Jefferson left it. From this
period John Quincy Adams has constantly
sought to wreak his vengeance upon that coun-
try which knew him too well to trust him, and
whose Intelligence and lefty patriotism are
sufficient tn protect it against the presca: vile
Vaccinations Of himself and his confederates.

War, has been arrested st Albany for forger-
