ELECTION OF lS25.--T'he Free Press
abuses AIR. Clay, because he did not vote
for Gen. Jackson in 1925. We have a
short answer to that. Mr.. Van Buren's
friends in Congress, acting under hts adj
vice, did not vote for Gen. Jackson, but
for William Fl. Crawford. The choice
was made on the first ballot, but il is well
known that these Van Buren, men from
New York, had determined TO vote for
Mr.. Adams on the second ballot. They
endeavored 10 dissuade Gen. Van Rens.
selaer from voting for Mr.. Adams at the
first trial, and told him that on The second,
they would all 90 in for Nj. A. and thus
decide the election in his favor. Mr..
Van Buren, did not in fact come olt a.
painst Mr.. Adams for something like
year. and until Mr.. A. refused 20 appoint
Mr. Van Buren, Minister TO England, as
he as urged to do by Rufus King. after
De Wit Clinton declined. Martin Van
Buren, was as little an original Jackson
man as Henry Clay. If the one is blam-
able, then is The other. And as for Gov.
Cass, he was an Adams man through the
entire Adams Observation-Disclosures
ser.

In answer TO our notice ef Mr.. REiD's re-
marks VI this place, broadly charging the dem
ocrasic party with advocating direct taxation,
the Hawkeye Of last week came out with an ar
ticle Intended to back Mr.. Reid's position. Out
Of ten thousand public meetings that have been
held in the United States, the writer has been
able to end owe-a township meeting, as il j.
stated 10 be--which has passed resolutions in
favor of direct taxation; and Of the five or six
hundred democratic papers printed in the United
States, less than half dozen have been known
TO sqaiIt towards unlimited and unconditional
free trade. A pretty way, truly. is this, Of con-
victing great party like the democracy of ia
voring or opposing particular scheme Of policy.
They make the exception the rule, aud the rule
the exception. We could, with far greater JUS
tiee and FEASIBILITY, convict the whole whig
party Of advocating the destruction of the
churches in Philadelphia; for the number Of that
party who were engaged in this unholy wori,
was far greater, in proportion, than the number
Of democrats who avow themselves to be in "a.
vor Of direct taxation. Nay, upon the same
hypothesis we might prove them TO be in favor
Of the Mormon religion, as well as aa'i- Bank
and aatitarif men; for in various portions Of The
country men are to be found calling themselves
wings who entertain all these views. Mr., Web.
ster himself. next TO Nj. Clay the idol Of the
arty, has declared United S,a'es Rank to be an
obsolete idea; but would we be justified, on that
account, in proelainirg to the country that the
wings have abandoned such an Institution? We
think not.
The Hawkeye Of this week again refers to the
sri Ct. and endeavors to change the issue, o.
make . new one, by talking abou, the sentiments
OF "a portion" Of our patty. In this, however,
il cannot succeed. Mr.. Reid anqaalifedly
charged the democratic party with advocating
direct taxation, and we denied II, and called for
the roof II will not do now to bubble about
Ga portion" Of the party. A dozen members
would be portion, and we doubt not that many
democrats can be found in the country who pre-
Ter direct 10 indirect taxation.

ton Of New Jersey has just adjourned, and the
amended constitution is published. Il is Ger.

and in guards and restrictions against Legislative
abuses goes ahead Of moat If not all other State
constitutions. The following sections we re.
gard as excellent:
ssThe legislature shall not, in any man.

liabili les, Of the state, which shall singly
or in the aggregate with any previous debts
or liabilities at any time exceed one hun

Of war, or TO repel invasiun; or to suppress:

Another Lie nailed to the Coun-

eastern apers Of their own party fally confirm.

now, at the expense Of his own consisten-
cy, he is engaged in what will turn out to
Be vain attempt to defeat two Of the
most trustworthy and efficient nominees
Of the democracy.
The 18th section Of the convention act,
which provides "that the members Of the
Convention shall be entitled to such COM
pensation as the Convention may direct"
had escaped my attention. / will now in
quire Of "a Whig," who was one Of the
grave, wise, and potent Legislators" that
passed the law with this anomalous pro-
vision in it, from whence will the mem
bers Of the convention receive their pay?
MOI. out of the Territorial treasury, for
that is empty. Not out Of Uncle Sans,
for the old gentleman has never, as yet,
in any instance, footed a bill for Conven-
ton. In many of the States and Terrific
ries, as am informed, this trust has been
regarded as one Of honor, not Of profit or
emolument; and nothing save their expen-
ces, and sometimes not even these, paid
tie members who filled it. This may lie
tie case Will tilOSc We are 0OOut 10 clcCt,

sion of the excess OF our Legislative appro-
priation, after paying off the sold debts"
Of the Territory, which it is estimated
will take at least half Of the $40 900, pro-
vided by Congress for us at its last ses-
sim.
/ In conclusion, Mr.. Editor, l wish to
disclaim all personal hostility to"A Whig."
He does me as much Injustice in alleging
that am actuated by any such motive as
in charging that my poor communication
owed its paternity 10 any one other than
myself. "a Wing" feels sore under my
illusions to Lis renowned report on Eve
toes;" and to lis participation in The cleo
ton Of TIE Commissioners, (Mcssrs. Raj
