rn anntrv got more than a rod, before crash went the bridge behind us all down in a heap, and two toll houses on top of it and as many os a hun dred folks splashed into the water, all mixed up together. The President lopked over his shoulder, and seeing I was safe behind him, called out for Mr. Van Buren, and asked me to Tun and see if he was hurt. I told him he had forgot himself, 5 for Mr. Van Buren wasn’t in the company ; but Mr. Woodbury and Mr. Cass were in for it, for I could see them flourfdering about in the water now. Run, Major, said the President, run and give them a lift. Take Mr. Woodbury first, you know I cant spare him. So there was a parcel of us took hold and went to hauling of them out of the water like so many drowned rats. But we got them all out alive, except a few young things they called dandies; they looked so after they got wet all over that wc couldn’t make out wheth er they were alive or dead. So we laid them up to dry and left them; and I went on to help the President review the troops on the battery, as they call it, and a grand place it is too. I’ve seen more fine shows here, it seems to me, than ever 1 see before in my life. Such a sight of folks, and fine ladies, and fine houses, and vessels, and flags a flying, and cannons firing, and fire works whisking about, I never sec the' beat of it. I didn’t think there was as much fun in this world be fore, for all I’ve been about so much at Mad dawaslca and among tli* nullifiers and all round. But I cant tell you much about it till get there, for I Cant find any. time to write. I’ve only catchcd a few minutes this evening, wliile the President has gone into Mr. Niblo’s garden. One of the master sights that I’ve yet seen tvas that balloon that went up this afternoon, carrying a man with it. Poor fel low, I dont much think he’ll ever get back again, for he looked to me the last I sec of him as though he would land in England, or the, moon, or some other country. All these sights keep us back a little lon ger than we expected. I dont think now we shall "he in Portland before the 28th or 29th of this month. So I thought I’d jest write you a line that you might be down there about that time. In hast your loving neft'u. MAJOR JACK DOWNING. thp eminence he hah attained. Andrew Jack- son is in facta living instanceof the nature and peculiarities of our sqcial and political sys tem. Every honest father—every affection ate mother, who sees him or tidies him by the hand, feels that his or her son may yet be another Andrew Jackson. The wad which he trod through life is open to every Ameri can—it is the road of virtue, patriotism, talent, and honesty. None can travel it but those who possess such qualities as Andrew Jack- son has possessed.—Pennsylvanian. duce us to place the utmost confidence in the correctness of this his statement. Mr. Randolph, it is said here, bits left two other wills; one dated in 1822, by which he directed the manumission of his slaves—and another in March, 1682. The former ot these, is the one to which he was understood tfl refer, when he requested at Philadelphia that the provisions of a previous vril! 'should be car ried iuto effect.-—Richmond Compiler. Hints to those who ride on Horse back.—Riding on horseback seems to be quite fashionable among the ladies the pres ent season, and the fact that Miss Fanny Kemble rides, will make it, no doubt, quite the rage. There are a parcel of well dress ed, whiskered young men about town, whom the ladies make use of as attendants on their rides, and who doubtless will better serve the state in this capacity than any other. But we have observed several of them to be to tally ignorant of their duty on such occasions, and to conduct themselves and their horses in such a way as to bs mere incumbran ces to the ladies they attend, wc beg leave to give them a word of advice respecting the important business on which they have so rashly and ignorantly entered. Any thing that onght to be done at all, ought to be well done. In the first place, they should neither ride before the lady nor behind her. If ono gets in advance of the lady, he will hardly be ta ken to be of the same party ; if one follows on behind, he may be supposed to be the la dy’s footman, but will hardly be taken to be her friend. But what is of more conse quence, it i3 extremely important both for the safety of the lady, the convenience of the li- ders, and the comforts of the lookers on, that the gentleman should not get (sis wc very of. ten sec him) on. the wrong side. Let him by no means go rubbing dong by the lady’s stirrup. He should be on the other sid<f, at the lady’s right hand, so that he may without difficulty approach closo to her, should it be necessary to whisper a soft thing in her ear, or to catch at her horse’s reins to prevent his stumbling. *It is true the lady’s face is turn ed the other way, but on such an occasion, one ought to make a magnanimous sacrifice of one’s vanity to the lady’s comfort and safe ty ; and thoijgh while her face is turned from us, she is no longer in danger of being captivated by one’s nicely combed whiskers, or smoothly brushed hat, yet this is almost, if not entirely compensated, by the power of approaching close to her, and pouring into her ear such a copious torrent of fashionable nonsense, as no female heart can possibly resist.—Boston Atlas. From the Albany Evening Journal. Printers’ Enterprise.—The N. Y. Ga. zette states, that in the establishment of the Harpers o£ New-York, there are seventeen presses, and one working by horse power, which equals the work of six or seven com mon presses ; and that the persons employed in their stereotyping, printing and hook bind, ing department, are one hundred and forty in number. Since this subject is started we will take the liberty to add, on what we considcr.good authority, that the printing of the establish ment costs SI00, and the paper $200 a day; that they employ a considerable number of workmen out of their own quarters; that they turn out on an avt* igc, everyday in the year,a book of the Family Library size ; and that the Postage bill of t he (inn is about one thou sand dollars per annum.—Mercantile. Journal. “ Since the subject is started,” wc must be permitted to put in our car, for the purpose of we stating a fact which will teach young mechan ics what may be accomplished by industry, intelligence and enterprise. It is but a few years since the Harpers were Journeymen Printers. In 181G, the editor of this Jour nal was a pressmatc of James Harper, in the office of Alderman Jonathan Seymour, of New-York, a man that honors our Craft, and who is remembered with esteem and affection by all who ever held situations in his office.— At that day, Harper was known as a « driver, and well we remember the many long and hard pulls he gave us r.t the Bar. Nothing short of twelve tokens a day would satisfy him. His brother John worked at a press in the same room and was a chip of the same block. Dead horses were never found upon their Banks. It required no gift of prophecy to see, from these young men’s manners of ta king time by the fore lock that thev were des tined to “ make a spoon or spoil a horn.” We are happy to learn that they hate made “spoon” with which they are diligently em ployed in extracting honey from the “ Horn of plenty” Singular Habits of Life.—An old gen tleman by the name of Hirtc, died lately at Lebanon, (Pa.) having “run with Father Time,” and reached theoutpost of ninety. His habit-- were in many respects very singular. His usual mode and hours of meals were breakfast, 10 o’clock A. M. coffee and cake, or bread and butter ; dinner 2 or 3 o’clock, P. M., tea and bread and butter ; supper 10 at night, roast goose, or pig, with cold slau and potatoes, in no limited quantity, a slice of su- gar cake, a goodly portion of apples or peach es, or both, two or three glasses of good wine, and a pipe of tobacco. With this repast, he seldom consumed less than one hour, and at 12, 1, or 2 o’clock he retired to enjoy an un broken rest, until 9 or half past 9 o’clock in the morning, and never knew whiit it was to be troubled with dyspepsia.—Boston Transcript MURDER, MOST FOUL, BLOODY AND HORRIBLE. Among the sickening details of outrage and crime which crowd upon us from .ill quarters of the country, the following case oi cold, bloody and brutal murder, is the most revolting and horrible which has long met our eye. It is with reluctance that we present these details—stained as they are with all that is black iu depravity, and ti.;er spirited in malice—to the readers ol' the Intelligencer. No one can hear the particulars o: this fien dish act without a shudder of honor—no one can regard its cowardly and bridal perpe trator as a member of our race—“nor blush to thir.k himself a man.” It is by no means the first case of cruel and deliberate femicide in this vicinity. In other instances the murderer escaped. The crime passed by unpunished. The lbllowiu details arc the best comment on the prudeuce of mercy so bestowed. ' In Front, above Otter street, a poor family of the name of Sparks, and consisting of a man, his wife and several children, have for some time resided. On Monday evening Thomas Sparks, the father, who is represen ted as a man of the worst passions, returned home in a partial state of intoxication. The fiend in his bosom was wholly unchained— the evil passions of his nature careered in freedom, and having no other being near up on whom to vent his rage—he struck the wife of his bosom—the mother of his children, one of whom, an infant, was clinging to her breast at the time. One blow was insufficient; and procuring a heavy slick, he commenced the task of murder with renewed determination and vigor. He struck her with this club, until at length with a heavy. blow upon the head, lie felled her to the earth. He then dragged her in the house. Here, while her lifeless and bloody corpse lay upon the floor before him, with th-* infant hanging at her breast, and the larger children clinging silent and pale, arouud her—the demon threw him self upon the couch—and slept ! The night passed away with the horrible witness of his crime in the same room, and within a few feet of him—yet he slept on as*it murder were a sport—as if blood—the blood of his wife— could be spilled upon his own hearthstone, without exciting regret or apprehension. Even in the morning when the fumes of passion had passed off, he arose from his bed and leaving the body of his victim to re- mains untouched and almost unnoticed, re- paired as usual to his work. When the neighbors came in they found the body ex tended on the floor, with one child laying asleep beside- it, and the infant upon its mur dered mother’s breast seeking nurture from that source which its unnatural and fiendish father had forever closed. The wretch was apprehended and taken before Alderman Iluchinson and committed. A coroner’s ju ry was convened, the corpse examined by several physicians., end a verdict returned that she came to dentil by blows indicted by her husband.—Philadelphia Daily Intel. Popular Enthusiasms.—It is utterly im possible to convey by any language the tu- multhous enthusiasm of the people, when the Man of the people makes his appearance in public. This enthusiasm prevadcs all class es, men, women and children. His old vin dictive malignant opponents, now reduced by the destiny of triumphant patriotism and vir tue to a mere handful, generally keep to their houses—get out of town, or skulk away into dark places to brood over their malicious ef forts, defeated and disgraced as theyfh ivo been. The presence of Andrew Jackson among the pcoplo, has removed mountains of preju dice, falsehood and misrepresentation. His simple, engaging, frank and fascinating man- ners hw noble ifiein—his venerable looks and appearance—his grey hairs—his honest countenance furrowed by time and toils for the glory of his country, all together bring up into the heart those warm gushes of honest enthusiasm, which mark most every man, wo man and child, whb, amidst the crowd, gets a chance of taking him by the hand. We never knew distinctly what popular enthusiasm was till we saw Andrew Jackson among the people. Elevated by the suffra ges of a free people, he lives in their hearts, and is a part of their warmest affections. No public man in this country ever enjoyed such unbounded, such overwhelming popularity as he does. The people feel and know that he is one of themselves,that he commenced life a poor hoy, without friends, without patrons— that he is indebted to the energy of his own juiad for all the honors heaped upon him, and The efficacy of soot in stopping blood pro cceding from a fresli wound was lately tested, and proved beyond a doubt, in the case of Na than Cornish, near Newark, New Castle County, who while in making a fence, by a mis-stroke of the axe, cut his leg badly to the bone, which bled profusely. Not being at first aware of the injury ho had sustained, he continued at work, till perceiving the blood running very freely, he pulled off his boot, an<l was alarmed at finding it drenched with blood. He immediately started for home, the blood from his leg continuing to increase, and after his arrival proceeded to try various remedies for stopping it, without effect. Af ter trying almost every remedy without suc cess, and despairing of stopping the blood, with the loss of which his strength was fast wearing away—soot was applied, and to the surprise of every one the bleeding was stop ped almost instantly. And what is still more singular, the pain which was very severe, al most as soon abated, and he is now iq a fair way to recover.—Delaware Gazette.. his troops at Ghent and at Doel—inspected the flotilla, dec. * ' - France seems greatly occupied with the disposal and circumstances attending the Duchess do Bcrri aud the infant Rosalie. Madame is said to have received a formal assurance of liberty from the government, and that this promise has already produced a sensible improvement of her health. The Gazette de France has desisted from furnish ing the news nrom Blaye, surrounded by a black border. Germany.—The Nocker Gazette says : “ According to the hist letters from Munich and Stuttgurd, the Governments of Bavaria and YVirteinberg have decided not to ratify the Treaty of Commerce with Prussia.” A letter from Reggio, dated the 1st inst. states, that a c mp of 18,900 Austrians and Hungarians is about to be immediately form ed between Modena aud Reggio, aud that ttic huts for the soldiers, and the magazines ibr the hay aud coni, are already completed. At Berlin not only the influenza but the sm ill pox is rxgiug with the u most malignity. The same scourge also prev .iis in Silesia and Pomerania with such violence, that several villages are entirely cut off from all commu mention with the country by barricades, such is the general dread of tlie contagion Spain.—A letter of the 5th of May, from Tarragona, mentions an insurrection among the country people about Reus, three leagues from that towu, occasioned by the instigation of the monks. Several villages had united and taken up arms. Their banner bears the in scription :—“ Long live Charles V. and death to the Queen !” Of all the villages, Alforge and Pevoleda, have displayed the greatest violence. Extract of a letter of the 3d May, from Madrid: “ The new order of succession is threatened with very powerful resistance from the Curlists, and this opposition will not be confined to the murmurs of an insig nificant party, bat will resound with v the ele vated voice of a Prince of the Blood aud se ven Archbishops and Bishops, who • would protest against the new fundamental law.— Nevertheless, all the necessary prepar .lions for the meeting r.o take the Oath of Acknowl edgment are continued. An event, however, is on the eve of taking place which may suspend this measure, for it is reported that the Queen is again pregnant. This report annoys the Car ists, and by way of consol ing themselves, they raise doubts of.the fact. It is probable that Don Curios, and his family will, in consequence, suspend their journey to Rome. This is believed by several per sons attached to his.household, who had been left at Madrid, and are expecting that the journey into Italy will be countermanded.” Russia.—A letter from St. Petersburg, da. ted 25th. April, states that Gen. Orlolf has been ordered to proceed to Constantinople to take command of the Russian land and sea troops there, and has been accredited also as extraordinary ambassador. Hence it.has been naturally concluded that the war will be continued. All the numerous disposable regiments were concentrated on the Tur kish boundaries. Prince Puskewitch lias pre pared a plan of military operations against i sequences may eventually be re dized. • En. gland and France will not look on in silence and see jhe Autocrat extending his power over the ruins of the Turkish Empire. Nor will they be satisfied with professions which the whole line of his conduct goes to contra dict. It would appear, by accounts from Loudon, that a strong belief was entertained there, that matters between Holland and Belgium were approaching a settlement. The accounts received by the previous ar rivals from France, that a treaty has been concluded between the. Ottoman Porte and the Pacha of Egypt, are partially confirmed, at least it is certain that a vessel has arrived at Toulon bringing this intelligence. At the same time it is generally asserted that diffi culties still exist between the Grand Seignior and his vassal. It is said that though a trea ty is concluded it has not been ratified by the latter. England, it is believed, has positive ly refused to make common cause with France i t the affairs of the East. sainted in the Legislature by 100 members—one Rep. resentative to every 2076. The lower division con sisting of 22 small districts and parishes and contain, ing a population of 43,204, is represented by 69 members—one Representative to every 626!! VVe might stop here with this simple statement of facts, but in order make more apparent the over whelming influence of taxation over population in that State, we will add the following calculation: “ the upjier division was, on tho principle of free white population, equally represented with the low er, it would have, instead of 100,331 representatives! That is, m 100 b to 331, so is the difference between the white and mixed basis of representation in South Carolina! This statement is made on the aggregate free while population of the State. We will now bring it down to the voters thereof. 19 parishes and 6 of the lower districts, containing 9441 voters, send to the Legislature 85 Representatives. 20 of the upper districts, containing 26,892 voters, scud but 84—so that 9441 voters of the low country have' a majority of representatives over 26,892 in the up country!!

Portugal.—Letters from Lisbon state containing 18,956 voters, send only 54—one to eve ry 351 •! Thus we sec, that, instead of the white basis bring adopted in all the Southern States, one of them at least, has incorporated tho mixed basis in her ci*nsti. tution to a most exorbitant degree.

Arrests are continually acknowledged that taxation, to a certain extent, has taking place and there are now more than fit- legitimate claims to representation: this being the teen thousand prisoners of state shut up in the case * we can lind tbo sba dow of an excuse for the neighboring prisons. Numbers of these un happy people dailv perish by hunger. abuse of it in South Carolina ; hut even this shadow of an excuse, for the majority of the late Convention in Georgia is wanting, when wo find them disposed to sacrifice both population and taxation, and to sub. stituto in their stead, rocks, mountains, trees, sand, hills and swamps, as the correct basis of represent!, tion!

Randolph’s Will.— Wc understand from a friend at Charlotte Court-house, that the will of Mr. Randolph was opened at Roanoke, his late residence, on Friday last, by Judge Leigh, in the presence of Judge Tucker and one or two other gen tlemen. The following are the principal if not tho only devises. To Henry St. George Tucker, President of the Court of Appeals of Virginia, ten thou sand dollara. To Judge Leigh of Halifax, ten thousand dollars. To Judge Leigh’s son, John Randolph Leigh a small boy, five thousand dollars. To John Wickham, Esq, of this place, some plate and a horse or two. The- remainder of his estate—lands, ne- groes, dec. to the son of his niece Mrs. Bry ant, of Gloucester, daughter of John Coal ter, Esq. Judge Leigh and judge Tucker are the executors. This will was made subsequent to his return from Russia, and was dated in January 1832. Our informant says that he has not himself seen the will, but that he gives us the report believed at Charlotte Court-House. This will will be offered for probate at the next Charlotte Court. It is the same that was left in Judge Leigh’s possession. An exam- ination is. yet to be made among Mr. Ran- dolph’s private papers. .

The packet ship Henry IV, at New-York, brings. to the editors of the Commercial Ad vertiser, Paris dates to the evening of the lGth of May, and Havre to the evening of the 18th. Tho most important intelligence is the breaking off o the mgociation between Ibrahim Paclui and the Porte, the particulars of which will be found below, and tho preparation on both sides to resume hostilities. Consider, able bodies of Russian troops arc flocking to wards Constantinople, to join their comrades already there. If hostilities are actually re- sunled, and Russia takes an active part in the affair, it is impossible to say what consequen ces may eventually bo realized. England and France will not look on iu silence and sec the Autocrat extending his power over the ruins of the Turkish Empire. Nor will they be entirely satisfied with professions which the whole line 6f his conduct goes to contradict. Holland and Belgium.—A letter from the Hague, under the date of the 10th of May, says; “ If wc may believe the warlike prepara tions which are making in the ports uponthe fronttors, and the extraordinary movement ou the part of the war ministry, the re-com- mencement of hostilities is likely soon to take place. Yesterday the news was received that six gun boats, laden with all sorts of mu nitions, had left Flushing to disembark their cargoes in some of our ports. A grand re view is to take place in presence of the king, about tho middle of this month. His Ma jesty will bo accompanied by the Prince of Orange and the minister of war. All our frontier lines will be visited, and the orders of the day will be read to each detachment. The intimacy between King William and the King of Prussia becomes every day clo- ser and more confirmed, and if we should again be brought to extremities, the invasion of Belgium by French troops would lead to grave and important results. It is true that the French cabinet, now warned in due time ot the power of the North, would look twice before it took a resolution which might lead to a general eruption among the different Eu ropean cabinets.” The negociations were still carded on be tween the two governments, but no indica tions are given of a pacific issue. The King of the Belgians has been also ta king a survey of his dominions—reviewed rahim.* Turkey.—The intelligence from Constan tinople is six days later than.before received, extending to the 23d of April.

The Federal Basis.—It win bo recollected that only a few weeks ago “ The Federal Union” came oat openly and declared, that this basis of represen tation gave the man who owned 5 Negroes 3 votes to hi.; poor neighbor’s one, who owned none.

P. M. On reaching Connecticut, the President was ad- dressed by Gov. Morey, in behalf of tiio New York delegation, and handed over to the care and protection of the delegates from Connecticut.
