Jus privato relations.
Before I close the scene of the political mangement
of the country, it may not be amiss to pire the printers
of newspapers a place in tho picture. It would in fact
>,t an insult to those who occupy such a conspicuous
Jtand in the political panics, to pass them unnoticed—
and you, sir, I hope, have knowledge of tho rules of
politeness,
That if any thing may be said
At which a printer’s nose will curl,
Although the cap may fit your head,
To wear not—'tis uot at you I hurl.
The profession is, or ought to lie, an honorable and
'iseful one. You arc us lamps to our feet, and should
direct us aright—but there are many amongst you who
throw their ink in the very face of truth. Justice is
sne ered over, obliteiatcd, and concealed with their ink-
balls. The finer parts of their work are bestowed on
falsehoods, which they have a peculiar art in dressing
up and palming upon the community. Many of them
have become tho actual servants of political aspirants,
and have the unblushing hardihood to indorse on the
face of their paper the name 1/th'tr master. It is a dis
grace to any republican people tu patronise 3ucli a pub
lication—and it is a disgrace to the human family, and
particularly to the American people, that such an intelli
gent part of men, as newspaper editors, should posses j
culatiuti3 to'sliow if our'prcscut system of reve
nue, is not disturbed by the proposed altera
tions in our Tariff, by which some of the
most important staples of commerce will bo
excluded, that our national debt may be dis
charged in 1835, and after that period, there
will be an annual surplus of 10,000,000 dol
lars to be devoted to thoso great public im
provements, of which Mr. M’Dttffic is known to
be one of the most zealous and efficient advo
cates. On the other band, it is shewn that the
hint Wayne and during the last war; and his
paper has probably the most extensive circula
tion of any paper in the Stato of Mississippi—
yet because lie would not bow lire knee to the
“ powers that lie,” the Secretary of State has
treated him as he has recently done the Editors
of the New Orleans and tl.o Kentucky Gazetto
he hns transferred the appointment of Publish
er of the Laws to a more supple competitor,
in this case to the Editor of the “ Artel,” to a
single man, in the prime of life, and in better
articles will reduce the revenue five and a half
millions, and render a system of internal taxes
necessary to meet the current expenses of go
vernment.
The most important and valuable part of the
Report however, is an exposition of the effects
of the prohibitory system upon the welfare of
the nation, shewing in the most satisfactory
manner, that the public will ho burdened with
822,000,000 tax, merely for the extension of
two branches of manufactures, should the du
ties on woollens and cottons he increased, to
h servile principles. I hope, sir, you will scourge: the lates recommended by the Secretary of the
■vour brethren that act so degrading a part in your pro- j Treasury. Tim report is' drawn up wit’ll great

increase of duties on woollens and certain other | spirit of proscription is as little in itself as it

of what is termed the political manager, Ire his station
w hat it may, whether belonging to the general, field, or
staff officers, let him faco to the front and read out his
-imrmission. If he be a hired printer, let him proclaim
the price of his wages. If lie Ire a common citizen who
has toiled in the ranksus a private soldier, and without
pay, let him not be ashamed of his station, but face
lhont and form a close column with his fellow-soldiers.
This done, sir, the remedy is n pparent—at the command
of common sense, tho privates will march in solid
columns to the field of liberty, whero they will set such
s mark upon the forehead of their officers, that they
may suspect every one wiro meets them will slay them,
nnd then cause them to Iro drumed out nf camp, and
they will no more trouble the land. Let the hireling
printer’s ink-balls bo taken and sold lothcshoc-hlackor,
.and he wifi no more put a stain upon truth, but will
become a man of humility and silence, and will no
: onger distract the public councils. Then, sir, the peo
ple will discover that they arc all upon un equality—
that their interests are all the same—that they ere all
aiming at tho samo point—they wifi select the tnllest
and brightest inen to manngb their public concerns
without enquiring the name of the party to which they
formerly belonged. Names must be forgotten, for they
“ are but bubbles,"and ought not to be worn—they arc
a disgrace to a republican people.—Let the people of

Indian affairs.—Wo have received a copy
of (he message of the President, in obedience
to u resolution offered in the II. ofR.byMr.
Wilde, cn the 29th February. The mes
sage—a very short one—covers a report from
the Secretary of War, and documents. Part of
the documents are inserted below.
The Secretary states that there is nothing
in the Department showing that the new go
vernment of the Chorokees has been recogniz
ed by the government of tho U States, or any
of the States—that there arc no documents in
tho Department, not heretofore communicated,
going to show the agency of white men, citi
zens of the U. States, in the formation of the
new government—that there is no law which
provides for the punishment of such conduct,
had there been such.
The documents follow, all except tho re
port of the committee of our Lcgistlire on the
subject of tho Cherokee lands, which has been
already published here.—Geo. Journal.

Sir: You will find by the enclosed rlocti
ment, bearing the title of “ Constitution of
the Cherokee Nation, &c.” that the remnant
of the Cherokee tribo of Indians on this side
of the Mississippi, is attempting to erect a
permanent Government on parts, and within
the jurisdictions of the Slates of Alabama,
Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee, on
territory solemnly guaranteed, and reserved to
them forever, as they allege, by the United
States. As the Chief Magistrate of one of the
States “ concerned,” it is important for ine to
know, und I have tho honour to apply to you
to inform me, what measures have been adopt
ed. or arc contemplated, by the General Go
vernment, to prevent this violation, by n petty
tribe, of the 3d section of the 4th article of the
Constitution of tho U. States, which provides
that “ no new State shall be formed, or erect
ed, within the jurisdiction of any other State;
nor any Slate be formed by the junction of two
or more States, or parts of Stales, without the
consent of the Legislatures of the States con
cerned, as well ns of the Congress.”
This opplication would have been made
earlier bm the hope was chcrit|)ied, ns long as
:t could be reasonably indulged, that some
public manifestation of the intentions vf the
Federal Administration would render it unne-
essary.
I have the honour to be, with high conside

Report on the Finances and the prohibitory
Duties. Tho Report of tho Committee on
Ways and Means, of which Mr. M’ Duffie
Chairman, is one of the most sensible docu
ments which has ever issued from either branch
of our National Legislature. It presents a very
lucid and satifactory statement ot the existing
state of our revenue, expenditures, nnd public
debt. The committee go into a scries of cal-
Bcntcn by their own figuring.—Major Noah
says it is seldom that you can meet an intelli
gent Adams man to hold a colloquy on poli
tics. They all belong to what they call
“ good societythey arc of the aristocracy,
and not of the people. You seldom meet
them in any public place to talk over the af
fairs of the day. I met an intelligent Adams
man at the table, who talked frankly on the sub
ject. “ We are looking up,” said lie. What
makes you think so 1” Why Clinton is dead—
Pitcher is sick—Root is sick—Talcott is sick
—your side is cold—the innsonic question is
ngitnting the west. Well, under tlies circum
stances, how many votes will you give Jack-
son? I will give him 17 (in New York.)
What, not divide the state between him and
Adams ? Well, take your pencil, and let’s to
figures. I will take your 17 from New York.
Will you give us N. Jersey ? No. Pennsyl
vania? Yes. The union of Dutch nnd Irish
in that state is too strong for us. Delaware ?
Why yes—we arc losing a little in Delaware ;
take it. Maryland? You cannot got more
than six votes for Jackson in Maryland. 1
take them. "Virginia? Yes. North Carolina,
South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and Ten
nessee ? Granted. Louisiana? No. Indiana?
No. Ohio? No. Kentucky? No. Missouri?
Yes. Mississippi? Yes. Illinois? Yes. So
then you cut Jackson down to 17 in Now York.
You take Now Jersey from him. nnd also
Louisiann, Indtnna. Ohio, Kentucky and Mis
souri ? I do positively. Well, then, after all
your cutting and carving, Jackson is elected by
your own figures. New York 17, Pennsylva
nia 28, Delaware 3, Maryland 6. Virginia 24,
North Carolina 15, South Carolina 11, Georgia
9, Alabama5, Tennessee 11, Mississippi 3
Illinois 3,—138 votes, 7 more than is necessa
ry to elect.
From this it will bo seen, that granting
every thing claimed by the administration, they
must fail. Now York, instead of 17. will
give 25 ; New Jersey, by a close nnd contest
ed fight, will vote for Jackson; Maryland will
give 7 votes ; the w hole of tho West probably,
with the exception of Ohio, will go for him.
The electoral vote for General Jackson will
be near 160. “ Looking up,” forsooth.
Tho “ Baltimore Marylander” of 22d ult.
puts forth the following paragraph :
“We hear that JUDGE MARSHALL,
Chief Justice of tho Supreme Court, a few
days since in conversation with a gentleman,
observed, “ / have not voted fur twenty years ;
but I shall consider it a solemn duty I owe my
country to go to the polls and rote at the next
Presidential election—for,” added he, in his im-
pressire manner, 1 should Jackson be elected, I
shall look upon the government as virtually
dissolved.”
Tho Coalition prints have pounced upon this
paragraph—nnd among them, one in this city—
which has called forth, from the Chief Justice,
the following card : •
March 20, 1828.
Sir : 1 perceive in your paper of to-day a
quotation from the Marylander, of certain ex
pressions ascribed to me, respecting the pend
ing election for the Presidency of the U. States,
which I think it my duty to disavow. Holding
the situation 1 do under the government ofthe
U. States, I have thought it right to abstain
from any public declarations on the election;
and were it otherwise, I should abstain from a
conviction thnt rny opinions would havo no
weight.
I admit having said in private that, though I
had not voted since the establishment of the
general ticket system, nnd had believed that I
never should vote during its continuance, I
might probably depart from my resolution in this
instance, from the strong sense I felt of the in
justice of the charge of corruption against the
President and Secretary of Stntc : 1 never did
use the other expressions ascribed to me.
I request you to say that you are autho
rised to declare that the Marylander has been
misinformed.
Very respectfully, your ob’t.
J. MARSHALL.

Unolher Editor Proscribed.—Mr. Mar-
schnllt has also come under the ban of tho em

Laws under the administrations of Jefferson,
Madison nnd Monroe—ho is n married mnn,
with a young and numerous family—“ age has
frosted his hairs and furrowed his^rrow”—lie
has done the State some service, under the go!-
Singular Coincidence.—When Mr. puchanan
ventured to enquire of General Jackson whom
lie had in his inind for the office of Secretary
of State, in the event of his election, the Ge
neral declared that if lie thought tho hairs of
his head knew his thoughts upon thnt subject,
he would pluck them out!—In the London
Observer of January 27th, is a paragraph as
cribing to the Duke of Wellington, Prime Mi.
nister of Great Britain, the utterance of the
same words, in reply to an enquiry ns to his
ministerial arrangements. ‘ If,’ said his Grace,
(placing Iris hand on his head,) “ ( thought one
single hair know what was going on within, I
would have my head shaved nnd wear a wig.”
The Tariff.—The true policy of the admin
istration tariff men has now developed itself.
Air. Sprague moved to strike out the duty
proposed by the bill before the House on iron
and molasses, and was supported by the whole
current of debate from the administration side
ofthe House. Even Mr. Mnrtindale, of N.
York, went flic whole length of Southern, anti-
tariff opposition to the duty on molasses, in
which he was joined by Messrs Rccd, Bates,
and Burges, ct it! omno genus. So far has the
political mania entered into the discussion on
the tariff, that Mr. Clarke, of Ky. whose par
tisans lust August made battle for a hempen
badge, forgot that lie was the Rcpicscntative
of a hemp growing district, and mnden speech
against the protection of that interest. The
war of words nnd of wits grew sharp ; and yes
terday Mr. Daniel, of Kentucky, advised his
Yankee friends who were so much opposed
to the duty on molasses, to learn to sop their
bread on but one side. The hill was reported
to the House by the Committee of the Whole,
with two slight amendments, not esseutiully
varying its principles or its details. So far as
wo can judge from the debates nnd the decla
rations of members, we understand the vote of
yesterday as decisive of the fate of the hill.
The southern members who arc opposed to
any hill, and voted against any amendment,
with the eastern members, who seem resolved
to vote for no additional duty on any article
hut woollen goods, will form a majority; and,
if they unite, will defeat the passage of the bill.

Timothy B. Redmond—In common with
dttr fellow citizens and with every friend of injur
ed innocence, we congratulate Mr. Redmond,
that he has escaped the deep and dangerous
conspiracy that was laid for iiis destruction ;
nnd that this talc of mystery which, for a time
hung so protentious over his character, has
been fully developed, so as to carry coaviction
to every one, however prejudiced, that ho is nn
innocent nnd injured man.—At the time that
Air. Redmond was singled out as the victim
of a band of robbers, he was doing in this city,
a largo anti prosperous business, which he soon
lost—he has again resumed his business, and
in the general sympathy that is felt for Iris suf
ferings and losses, we hope a liberal patronage
will be extended to him. AVc observe that the
manager of the Bowery Theatre, has with a
highly commendable generosity appropriated
this evening for the Benefit of Mr. Redmond,
nnd has aptly selected the Forest of Bondy, or
the suspected Florio, as a part of the evening’:
entertainment. A community that loves jus
tice, nnd would protect the innocent, will no
doulit reflect on tho peculiar hardships of Mr.
Redmond’s case, and will seek this opportit
nity to reward his broken fortune, and to
soothe thoso feelings which have been long

would bo serving a nmn who, in his convivia

and who, in the condition he then was, run the
risk of losing tho money he had, determined
on the benevolent purpose of conducting him
to the watch houso, and deposited the money
with the officer of the guard. Early the next
morning the gentleman who lost the money
made application at the guard house and iden
tified the same as his property—and jolly Bac

next court of sessions. AVc are informed the
abovo person is just out of a seven year’s ap

Bachelor's Meeting.—The proceedings of
the Benedicts at their meeting on Tuesday
night will bo found in our paper of to day. It
seems that they hnvo been clubbing together
to wipe off certain stigmas thnt havo attached
to their name. Their proceedings give eri-
the search fur such plilantliropists, ns these our
bachelors, affect to cull themselves. Their
habits of solitude have deadened the interest
they ought to feel in the good of our common
country; and we find them now plotting to-
gclhcr, in the face of tho world to check the
progress ofthe “ American System,” on which
our existence as a nation depends.
Agreeably to a notice given in the public pa
pers, the single gentlemen of Boston and i’s
vicinity assembled at Washington Coffee
House, on Tuesday evening last, and after be
ing organized by the choice of a President and
Secretary, were addressed in an able and elo
quent manner by several of the gentlemen pre
sent. Many were attracted thither with the ex
pectation,tlmt those who had left tho fraternity
were to he anathematized, that vows were to
he taken of perpetual celibacy, and hostility
waged against matrimony : hut tholobjccts of
the meeting were stated to he exclusively for
literary and charitable purposes.
The resolutions in substance were, that (he
peculiar situation of the fraternity; their dan
gcr from death, reproach and matrimony—re
quire extraordinary measures of self defence—
that union, and a concentration of efforts would
affurd gratification at the present time,strength
and substantial aid in the hour of peril, and at
the same time raise to a high stand,the whole
class to which they belong—that it he recom
mended to the gentlemen assembled, and to
their numerous brethren throughout the Union,
to congregate together under the name of
“ Bachelor’s Clubs,” and unitedly to exhibit to
a deceived world, the literary and scientific
attainments which hare been secured to the
Order by un unobstructed attention and devo
tion to the cause of lenrning—that the con
templated “ club” take under it special care
with pen and patronage, any journal that may
he established and devoted to its cause—and
that a committee be appointed to prepare rules
and regulations, to form n constitution and by
laws, and report at an adjourned meeting.
The preamble and resolutions were unani
mously adopted, and agreuhly to the last re
solve, five gentlemen were selected to draft a
constitution, and report at the next meeting,
notice of which will be given in the public

14 do. of 4 aeres—10 do. of 20 acres, and Id do. of 30
acres— total 72 lot*. They will therefore off*? for sale,

The sales will be marie each day, anti! .11 Are said,
between It) and 2 o’clock, and one-fifth of the amount
ofthe purchase money must he paid on the d.y of sale,
in terms ofthe law, and the balance “in four equal an

A plan of the lots will he left with Col. Balcy, at tho
Springs, for the inspection of all persons who may call.
It is expected by the Commissioners, that the advan

in the use of Mineral Water, and other prospects or
health, ought and will bring together a large number to
compete for choice at the time of selling the lots.

Something A'ew.—'There is now exhibiting
nt the Patent Office in this City, a model for a
Flying Carriage. The whole apparatus is mo
ved by one wheel, and is certainly,a very ingeni
ous und plausible piece of mechanism. The
inventor, is a Mr. Smith, a native of Massa
chusetts, but lately from the State of Alabama,
where the above was invented. A large num-
he- of scientific gentlemen have viewed Mr.
Smith’s model, and expressed themselves re
specting its success, in a manner highly cn
couraging to the inventor, who is now desirous
of obtaining pecuniary aid sufficient to enable
hitnto make a full ami satisfactory experiment of
the utility of his invention, and of the practica
bility of carrying it into extensive operation.
The amount necessary for this purpose, is so
trifling, (not exceeding two or three thousand
dollars,) we trust the generosity of the public,
will enable hint to test the worth of his ingen

was coming into Dumfries, with her “ penny

was accosted, on this side Newton, by a mat
ronly woman, who, sans cercmonie, demanded
the money she had got from such and such a
person. The girl was not to be frightened by
one of her own sex, so told her candidly, that
if she attempted to harm her, she would give
her o blue eye, and to it, they set, vi ct armis.
They struggled for somo little time, but at last
tho girl got out of her grip, and fairly floored
her antagonist by a blow on the chops, and she
went reeling in the ditch at the side ofthe road.
At this time n man came up, and on hearing
the girl’s story, he proffered his protection,
