are accompanied in many places (no< in klch
mond, whore better taste has been ohservsd) b,
q spiri, aggressive, cxacting. and in'olerant.
The Wings have been every where invited t'
unite in the marks Of respect paid to the memor,
ofGen. jackson. Many have embraced the in
vitation but far moro have staid away, apprehen.
sive, no doubt, las was our CASEY that they nigh
seem to sanction by their silence where they coals
not oppose or explainl opinions Of his characte'
and public life, which they did not entertain
willing to render reasonable and customary hon
ors to his memory, Yet unwilling to unite
in that manworship Of the dead, which they hae
disdained when the dead alive: unwilling t'
place themselves in false position. and to ilbe
their own past history, and to dishonor the pres
ent convictions of their own understandings.
II the Wings declined attending the meetings
called, complaints, and in some cases, violent re-
proaches were uttered against them: IL they at.
tended, they were placed in situation either un-
gracously to oppose tho proceedings OF the friends
proper of the deceased, taci,ly to subscribe to
sentiments repulsive to their understandings and
revolving TO their hearts.
The most striking instance Of this is afforded
by the Jacksonian proceedings in the neighbor-
ing town Of Petersburg. We invite the readers
attention to the judicious commentary ofthe Pc
tersburg Intelligcncer:
"HoNoRs To GEN. JACKSON.
