EXCELLENT RIFLE SHOOTING We do not think the fallowing has been excelled. Tf it hat let its'hour where. Tho subjoined is offi , cial: July 1839—12 shots fired off-hand, 120 yards, by each-member. The following wns the shooting made hy a mem ber ofthe club : 12 shots measuring37 2-10 inches, of which G bulls were in tho oyo ; 3 nearest shots 12*10 inches, winning the prise. On this target ihi-ro were threo members who fir ed 36 balls, 12 of which werein the eye. THE GEORGIA JOURNAL. L.TU1# pajMsr hat put on a now suit, and it undoubt edly a very fino looking ihcct. Its external garb is very captivating. Would that we could say as much for tho soundness of its principles. THE AUGUSTA MIRROR. This neat publication has reached us. It has its usual attractions, and wo aro glad to receive it so punctually. Tho 44 Mirror ” should bo supported, and we aro glad to see that its prospects so far are excellent. THE SOUTHERN AGRICULTURIST. Tho number for July has reached us. It contains a map of Railroads and Canals from tho South At lantic Coast, to the Tennessee River. It is as usual well filled, and is certainly a most useful publication Col. W. T. Williams, is the Savannah agent. University ok Virginia.— 1 The closing excorci- «es of this institution were celebrated on the 4th Inst.- Among the names of those who distinguished themselves, wo find the following from South Cure, jinat Joseph A. Sh tnklin, in Mathematics, Natural Philosophy, and tho Ancient Languages, Laurence W. Arthur, and John F. Hammond, in Moral Phi losophy. 03* Another quarrel consequent on the affray in which Mr. Leigh, son of B. W. Luton, of Virginjn, got badly wounded, in Woodville, ( Miss ) Messrs. Davis and Moor* mot, on the 27lh ult, about two miles below Woodville, with rifles. Davis shot Moore, at tho word, "present,” before Moore could pull tho trigger. Moore received the ball through his side, and died it) a few minutes. 03* Owing to the disparity of rank that exist* between a French Vico Admiral and an American Post Captain, some coolness existed between Ad miral Baudin and Com. Shubrick, at I’ensacoln. The rules ofthe French service is such, that the Ad miral, however inclined,could not consider the Com mander of the U. S. Squndron ns an equal, because he was not an'Admiral. Our highest officers have experienced this difficulty with the English and other foreign powers, and Congro-a alone can re medy It, by giving tho proper naval rank to our offi cers. THE PRESIDENT’S DEPARTURE. We take the following from last Tuesday's New York Evening Post:— The President af tho United States at unno’clock, P M.| this Jay lolt Washington Hall for the north. He whs attended for some distance on his depar ture, by the Mayor, a poriimi ofthe Common Council, tho Young Men’s Committee on horaelmck, and a large conoourso of other citizens in carriagos and on horseback. APPOINTMENTS BY THE PRESIDENT. Algernon Sindey Lewis, Receiver of Public Mo neys at Now Orleans, Vico Thos. H. Kennedy, re signed. Parker Dudley, Receiver of Public moneys at Pal myra, Missouri, vice Abraham Bird, removed. Thomas A.S. Doniphan, Cnlleutorof the Customs, Natchez, Mississippi, vice James Stockman who did not qualify. The New York Gazette mentions the arrival at that port ofthe French corvette Ygunlo, Lieutenant Labotde, from Havana. The Yguole is Baltimore built, and was captured by the French from tbo Mexicans. Site i* barque rigged and carries foul- teen guns—having on board but a very small num ber of mnn, Sh« is bound to France ns a souvenir of the French affairs in Mexico.—Ball. Pat. The.Notfolk Beacon, ofthn 10th inst. says, that tho French brig nf war Ore*te, Cupt. Mure, has an chored off Fort Nutfulk. She is 19 day* from Port Itoyal, Martinique, hound to Brest, nnd has put in for supplies. Officers and crew nil well. Salutes were exchanged between the Oreate, and the flag ship Java. The New York papers state, that while the Pre sident of tho United States was seated ut the break* fast table in that city on Saturday morning, he was informed that an old lady upwards of one hundred years of age wns present, anxious to see him. Up on this the President went into the boll to bring her in. It appeared that she is in her one hundrod and fourth year. Her name is Hannah Gouge, nnd she li^s nt 135 Reudc-street. She sttid that she had soeAovcry President of the IJnitud States, had sha ken hands with Washington, und wns quite delight ed to seo the *presom incumbent. She walked with out nssUtonco from her residence, but was escorted back by It. Bowye#E*q- "ALL THE DECENCY PARTY.’’, The editor of the Madisonian, having been invit ed to dine with Mr. II. A. Wise, and his " Whig” friends on. Windmill Islund opposite Philadelphia, but being unable to attend, sent tho fallowing toust: The American Eagle—His life blood, liberty ; his cyo, eternal vigilance; his wings, commerce and manufactures; his talons, the army and navy; his fatness, agriculture; his strength, the Union; his flight, the circuit of the world; his , loco focoism Ad ominous name, Windmill Island. We would have thought Mr. Wise required no Mill to aid hijn. He has wind enough in all conscience 1 The Captain of the ship Christopher Colon, last from Havana, was arrested at Now York on Mon day, for an nUndgcd attempt to violate the quaran tine laws. The ship sailod from Havana on tho 23d, but the log book was altered, and her depar ture noted ns. having taken place on tho 17th ult. The fraud was discovered by tho arrival of vessels which sailed from Havana on the 20th, nt which time the Colon was In port. Tho Captain wns held to bail in the sum of $3000, and the mate, who had sworn to the truth of the log book, fully committed on tbo charge of perjury. 8ir Allan McNasb.—Tho Rochester Demo crat states on the authority of a gontlonten from Toronto, that McNabb was in jail at that placo on • charge of forgery, If so, B»roo Nar’en. adUtent relation, paldlW Knight • trWt. We don’t beliv vo it. B3“ That there may bo no ’mistake concerning the " Whig" communications, which have appear- ed of lato in the Charleston Courirt, Saturday’* edition of that paper has the following from the editor :— Our Whig Correspondents continue Jo avail themselves cf the privilego of our columns—they' aro clever fellows, and we cannot he so discourteous as to refuse them a place. Are there no cham pions ready to take up the guuntlet so boldly thrown clown t Occasionally wo have tilted with tho Whig chivalry ourselves—but is there no uuo else willing to handle tho Democratic spear ? Naval.—The U. S. ship Cyane, Cupt. Percival- sailed from Pulormo for Port Mahon. Tito U. S., ship Ohio passed Gibraltar 31st May for Port Ma hon. We are requested to suy that tho reception ofthe President at Brooklyn, and all tho arrangements for it, wore made hy tho authorities and citizens with out reference to party. Sevuml of tho most active gentlemen were whigs, and the city government, it is well known, has o majority of Whigs.—N. Y. Jour. Commerce, 9th inst. Tho abuvn is a flat contradiction of the asser tions of the N, Y. "Whig” pnpers, that the recep tion of the President in Brooklyn, was u mereparly affair. AUGUSTA AND SAVANNAH. The Brunswick Advocate, of Saturday last, has tho following sensible remarks, which we extract frum a long article on the same subject:— Augusta has overlooked Savannah long enough- Tho energy and success of tho Charlestoniuns is al most unexampled. • In commercial enterprise and cuteness they are certainly more than a match for any "Yankees” you cun point out. Let Charleston once have this continuous lipo of Railroad open through Augusta to tho interior, and her supreme ascendnney is forever established ut tho expense of both Augusta and Savannah. Charleston will then bo the centre and sun of tho system, around which will revolve by fixed and immutablo laws, Savan nah, Auguslu, Athens, und nil other towns touched by the ramifications of this Railroad. Mr D’Antignac deserves tho thunks of his fellow citizens, his reasoning is correct; und no fallacy can be invented to disprove it. TO "WINE BIBBERS.” We take the following from the N. Y. Journal of Commerce, 10th inst. It is especially dedicated “good society.” When my husband comes homo drunk on brandy," said un nfllicted wife, " ho goes to bed and snoozes it out; but when ho gels drunk on wine, I und my children have to floe for our lives." The intoxication of wine, in many cases at least, is worse than thut of rum or whiskey. In these days of reform, tho more fiery liquids are chiefly banished from " good society," but wine is considered u much more harmless visitant. We tiro not so sure of it. Ten years hence, when we sec the ripe fruits of wine-dt inking, we can hetteejudge. Many ave try ing th<* experiment, wo fear,—futally to themselves and their dearest friends. the engraver was wo have yotto learn, unless it be Rktsck .

Wo should remark, howaver, that the above ac curate information i* contained in n quizzical loiton intended to slytw uffibc absurd!tie* and scandal* lulled for the York pres*, hy foreign letter writers ofthe Siiki.ton Mackenzie school. Thi letter is dated London, June 15, though written in New Tin. (CP The New Orleans Bee, of the 9th inst., men tions thnt BustaMkntk ha* recommended to the people of Mexico, to submit to tho rule of Santa Ana, as President ad interim. Bustambnte states that Santa Ana "merits the gratitudo of the Mexican nation," and thnt “ ho will be the first to obey him a* President ” Bustamknte, may, in truth, bo said to have ubdicatcd in favor of Santa Ana.

A. Wise, the great fire enter, can swallow his own words at limes, in n mure genteel mode, than ho can utter them. The tiuih is, he hud got into a scrape with J. H. Pleasants, of tho Richmond Whig—a tough one, and was, at usual, wrong.— His friends haJ to drug him out of the mire, and heie is the conclusion of tho nffuir between the edi tor of thn "Whig," an I the modern HoTsruRt Mr. Wise having used highly offensive and inju- riou* language towutd* Mr. Pleusnnis, under un entire misapprehension (as we tuke it up«n us to us- sure him it was,) of Mr Pleasant’s meaning—wo think he ought not to hesitate to express, what we do not doubt ho will feel, bis regret tor having used iitcii language, and to retract it, und thut thereupon tho partiosshuuld be restored to the relation of mu tual utid cordial respect und goodwill towards each other.

Now, we usk the State Rights party of Georgia, do they respond to tho sentiments of the Globe}—or do they repudiate them? Tho N. Y. Commercial of the 11th has the follow ing introductory: NuuriCATioS.—In *nnfirmntfon of a remark made by us yesicrJuy, that "the democracy" are once more swinging round to the pestilent and trea sonable doctrines of nullification, we extract the following article from tho government paper, the Globes— State Rights.—Weperceive that tho Richmond Whig, und other kindred prints, have tho disinge nuousness to uscribe to us an offensive motive in ex tracting from a Northern paper un article justly complimentary to Mr. Poinsett, in which lit*course in the nullification contest is incidentally alluded to. Upon this subject we will make no hypocritical pre tensions, for the purpose of obtaining available sup port. We have loo much respect for our stale rights friends to suppose that their confidence could bo won by hollow flattery.. This, however, wecun suj in all commence, that we havo u much greater sym- pathy even with what we may havo deemed their errors, than with the opposite extreme of consolida tion and irs federal progeny. In their devotion to state rights they cannot exceed us, nnd their pr-sent noble ami disinterested support of the true princi ple* of the constitution, communda our warmest ad miration and esteem. Some of us may differ as to the remedy to be empluyed in cases t<f flagrant in fraction of reserved rights, but we all agree iu the importance of maintaining them in their lull integri ty,aecure alike from open outrage und sophistical in fringement. All the little influence or ability which we may possess, •hall be exerted to thi* end,<u that iho necessity may never ugain recur for u harsh re medial interposition. In ibis case prevention is in deed better than cure. State Rights men, pause—and see who are the friends of your principle*! The Democrat* or the "Whigs." Let prejudice not blind your eyas. The Cardinal Resell, a celebrated German engra ver, Is dead at Roma, whither, I presume be lied gonefo study mo old mailer*.—JY<w York Com. Ado. 10th inst.

An English paper tell* a story (which we dress up for our readers) of hocussing a inter, at a pri vate gnmblittg house, which is bnrely credible. It is said thut tho lute Earl PoMKRBT, hud gone to the house in question, in company with Lord Falkland, lately deceased, a well known noble black-log. Tho Earl declined piny, but partook of tho pleasures ofthe table, nnd soon fell under the sumo table, from tho soporific oil ecu of something more than the juice of the grupu. Ho was sent home, nml next morning was waited on by one of the gen tlemen who wns lit the " over-night debauch" who tendered him £700 in bqnk note", which ho alleged the Eui-1 hud tco« from him lit play. Tho latter pro tested that ho bad no recollection whatever of piny- ng. The gentleman insisted, and the Enrl was ot-ccd to pocket the'cash. A day nflor, tho devoted Earl was waited on by another gentleman, who do tnanded £13,000, which ho said the Earl had lost, nnd which, he said, he had won. In vain did tho Enrl declare thnt ho handled neither dio or card. His assertion passed for nothing. Tho company were appealed to, ami one ami nil declared tho F.nvl had played—had wot; £700 from one gentleman, and had lost £ 13,000 to another 1 Thu fact of his hav ing received tho £700 wus referred to—nnd the Earl, to save his character, had tu pay the £ 13,000. This sum wus nlWwnrds divided among tho con spirators. So much for English gambling. Wo do nut know the precise amount of income, received out of tbo public purso just now, by Sir Willoughby Gordon, but wo lmvo reason to be lieve it is considerable—very considerable."—£»- glish paper. There was a certain Sir Willoughby Gordon, in Savannah, onctf upon n time,—or rather a gentle man who passed himself off for that personage. He visited nur Southern counties, and levied some pretty" considerable" contributions from those who thought they were raised n step higher in tho world, boenuso the said Sir Willoughby, a scion of tho British aristocracy, condescended to drink their wine, nnd drain their purses Thi* pretended Sir Willoughby, however, turned out to ho an impostor—nnd hud been, it i* said, valet de chain• hre to tho redoubtable nnd veritnblo Simon PunE. tho Sir Willoughby Gordon, above alluded to.

C7* A Correspondent of an evening pn|>cr, who is more surcharged with bile than reason, bus «* lit to notico an article in the Georgian of Wedm day last, headed " Native American Association.” This, writer speaks of our addressing tint passions ofthe "aliens in tlio city and State ” Wo ktmw not whom he terms aliens, as wo do not consider ntiy American citizen cun bo an alien—wo address- ed our fellow-citizens, without distinction. We leave tho article, however, to nil nur readers: who will pcritso it without tho party gall, which ibis uauny. tiiotts scribbler betrays in his pointless reply ]J a passes over tho assertion of the pamphleteers, to extract a handbill which,Ac says, whs cireulnted in New York, just previous to the Charter Election. Now, oven if this curious and impolitic handbill was the emanation of one or mnro udapted citizons, it fo not sufficient to charge n people, who have, with u few exceptions, made us good republicans, ns any other naturalized foreigners, with tho object nf sub verting our government, nml contemplating a Rev lution. Such insinuations against a virtuous class of our countrymen, may suit tlio pages of" Whig pamphlets, nnd tho column* of modern “ Whig" papers—but we think them so innocuous, that wo shall resorvo tho venom for which this writer gives us credit, for tlio snake that would with this writer’ spirit, bruise us, if ho dare. We ore of opinion that there is nn occasion to re- peul tlio Naturalization Laws, as wo believe they induce tlio hardy yeomanry and Ingenious mnehuni* of other lands, to adopt this country as their own— nor do we dread being inundated w.fii convicts from other climes, as our luw* are strung enough already to oxclude such p- rsutts from the right of citizen ship. Nul with our own enterprise, our industry, and talents, combined with the labor and ability of the foreign nriitnn, wo nre already supplying sumo of the oldest countries of Europe with 1 cotnotivcs and engines thut are unsurpassed for durability ai.d beauty. Wojovo our country too much to deprive it of these advantages to satisfy tlm ill-grounded fears —wllie morbid feelings of "disappointed politicians.” But, without enlarging— when the whigs abandon their anti-republic nt sontimohu—ai.d havo thrown overboard tltoir favorite project* of " alien and se dition laws," tlu n they will find that tho adopted citizens of America, are incorruptible putriuts—but nut till thou. Thn editor of a New Orleans paper, in reply to a writer, who holds opinions bordering on those evinced hy a "File,” says: 14 When ho can luy his linger on u foreign traitor —or foreign conspirator; ono whoso fealty bus been pledged to America, then will wo join tbo Na tive American Associatim, and strenuously oppose grunting of any, the most trivial privilege to foreigners. Nay, wo will even go farther; for, not satisfied with a repeal of tho natumlizitiou laws, we will debar them tlio inestimable privilege of digging our cunuls and dying in our ditches! of bla-tingourquurrrius, and being bluttvd tliemsolves. in more ways than one, in return—of draining our Routine marshes, or being buried in them!—of making our roads or making their fortunes! In u word, of performing nny species nf rannuol labor, now’ considered in anywise degrading for natives. Yes! whoa Kuvopeuu emigrants prove at alt recre ant t«» tho country thut h •» shielded them in tribu- lution—that has ranked them with hnr sons, mid spread tlio protecting a*gis of her glorious Constitu tion alike over nil, then will wc be among tho first to denounce and decry them. When Arnolds are found among, or any danger to tho Union appre hended from thani, then, wo suy, as u matter nf calm and calculating prudence, let our ports be closed to their future admission—arid an inquisito rial and sleepless vigilance observed, with regard to all claiming tho old world for their natnl place. When such u period urrivux, nf which there is not tho most remote possibility, there should be no na- tnralization laws; nnd when there nre no such laws, whnt security nre wo tu have against iho mu- chinutioiis of foreign emissaries, bound to us by no ties whutuver 7" TIIE "SIAMESE TWINS’’ OF THE PRESS. The Georgia Journal of iho 9th inst. copies the following from tlm paper of it* twin-brother, tlio Louisville Journal,cdiiuuhy Mr. Geo. D. Pren tice, historiographer extraordinary to tlm " Whig" candidate for the presidency, tlm Hon. Henry Clay. "The Milfodgovilln Journal nominate* Ex-Gov- ernor Troup, of Georgia, asacaudiduie for the Pres idency. If the Ex Governor persist* in being a can didate, we must certainly bring out Gen. Guinea hi opposition to him. Tlio old Genornl fairly over crowed him once, and we presume hu can do it again." The Georgia Journal does not feolindignunt, a* it should, at this impertinent thieui to burlesque the revered name which it ha* placed wilhuut authority in its columns, for the high office of President of the Unitud Siute*. Oil, no • ns It i* tbo effusion of a 4 Whig" brother, it simply *iiy#, " wo on pardon ‘the raillery contained in ilia above extract." Very forgiving Mr. Georgia Journal! But wo will not forgivu tbo impudent comparison which ha*been rnado by iho witdng Prentice, who extolled his patron, Mr. Clay, ui 44 the friend of universal emancipation,” Hi tho book he published, und call ed tho life of that gentle-nan—nor can wo forgive the Georgia Journal, for indiscreetly using Gov. Troup’s name that Mr. Prentice might uncork his flabby wit nt ii* expense. Lei tho Georgia Journal taken lesson from that very significant paragraph—and see tho effect of hi* ruinous policy. If every St*tc in tho Union were to start a candidate of its own. how could the voice of the people of tho whole Union be heard— or be known l The evident design of tho Georgia papers, which use iho name of Gov. Troup, is not to elovutc that worthy individual, but to throw away the vote of the Stute, nnd wo might rare little in deed for their unwiso proceedings, did they not in volve tho uuine of ouc of Georgia’s most honored sons in u bootless controversy. See the result! A paper subject to the control of Mr. Clay, in Ken tucky, comes out now, and threatens a 4 * Whig’’ or gan ut Milledgovillc in Georgia, that it will come out with Gen. Gaines in opposition to the nomina tion of its Georgia brother! General Gaines, Gen. Scott, and Gen. Harri son, would no doubt make a most imposing mili tary display—but, wo bog leave to say, though they are all very good men in their way, perhaps. Urn people of Georgia, do not think they are the right materials, with which to make a President. \V« may *uy the saran of Mr- Chy. He is " uo bill" in Georgia.

Tbo Steamers formerly in tho employ of tho Government havo been discharged, and tho only ono routined has boon sent reuud to Tampa Bay with Col.

Thu Mick- asukics are the most savage, though fewest, and their appearance does not ut nil belie their churuc A few days ago, Sum Jonu*, die real Simon l’ure, paid us n visit, tegovher with Chlttu-Uts-to- iiu-gec (snake warrior,) and his Sense Keeper, a most Uemuniucal looking negro; those, with u few oilier*, Sain brought with him, gnvc u* a lino spe cimen of their daring trilai;—they number 250 1 the Scmiuoies 1,000—so snith Sain It i* very well known thnt those Micknsukies havo ulono prolong ed tho wur. having repeatedly shot runne rs und messenger* sent hath by whites and Indians. Sant made quite a sensation a* ho oiitorod our camp, lie is a mil, sparo old man, with locks as while u* the crutio feather* ho wore in his ginVe, and dress ed uut in all his toggery, ut tho head of thoso fierco Mickasuckies, together with tho negro, looked more like tho leader of a blind of fiends than human be ings.—I might liken him to a king, but then such a name fur bis majesty—only think, Sato Jones tho fisherman. This is die first liitto he ha* boon in since tho commencement of tho wur, ami I think it augurs woll that ho catno to that conclusion, as ho possesses vast influence among thorn, and propose* to exert it a# wc wish, though If thoy choso, tho war might have been prolonged 20 yonr# lunger, as himself #nys, for tlio past year thoy havo ull boon in die deepest recesses of tlio swamps, concealed beyond the remotest search of tho white man, and there they might havo continued ih spite of us ; arid so close hnvo they kept themselves, thut wo iiuvo entirely miscalculated their numbers—und some lmvo supposed them in a starving condition, uiul without clothing, &c , hut thu iippcurauco of those 1 have seen testifies but too woll to their ca pacity fur vigorous rosisluncn. I havo been rather more particular In endeavor ing to ascertain their sentiments oti tho subject of religious belief—though of thnt they say they know nothing, only giving what they think and tho old pooplo say. Whan death lays them below tlio ground, thoy say u sort of corporeal being liku iliolr former solves (they cannot concufvo of a spirit) goes to that part of tho the world where the sun gocs down, them bo hunts, fishes, und eqjoys himself, if ho has been a good warrior, bo finds plenty of gome, if not, none. This is all I could obtain from thorn, having a singular aversion to nil such conversation on abstract subjects, not being ablo to comprehend ihctn. They nre tho most practicul pooplo in tlio world, eating and sleeping, being their chief plea sures. From ono of tho younger men, who were more loquacious, I sought some information on the subject of ghosts; he believed in thorn, and bad seen ono; bud been hunting, and saw, during the night, his undo who had been dead oight days be fore, with a houd as large as hi* body; ho wus frightened nearly to doath, wa« sick for two days— aftci ward* went to the spot and found a white crane standing thore-^most conclusive proof, ha thought, of the existouco of tlio ghost. IIo was siluuced at last hy uno of thu old moil who said ho was talk ing foolishness- During our intervals of leisure, having nothing else to do, we would talk to them uf Astronomy, of what tho white man was enabled to sen in tho moon by moans ofudescopo*, that (hero were mountains, trees, waters, and perhaps people liko those on tho earth; wo would icll them of tho wonders of suit ing on tho ocean without sight of thn tun, or land i and all thvy would exclaim, wus //*’•/«, (word uf nt- to'.ishnient) und *ny they did nut brli -ve it, Thu) manifested also a singular indifference towards ull the wonders of our time, either in *ktll or power.

[rOR THE UKOItUIAN.] AL1F-NS—NATIVE AMERICAN ASSOCIA TION. Mr. Editor j—Thu adopted citizens of tlio Uni ted Slates, who liuvu nindo Gonrgla thoir choice, feel tlwt they havo not one sentiment which is "alien” to thn high diameter of nil American citizen—although tho 44 accident" of their birth caused thorn to bo natives uf another land—tliuir hearts have boon cmvsocnucd to tho free Institu tions of this Imppy nation. In tho full tide of rauulioml, and when men aro reu’ly capable of judging for thmnsdvex, they lmvo aw.>ru cm the altar of thoir ndoptod country, eternal fidelity te hoc laws—her institutions,' uml this.oath ofallogiuuce they havo never yet broken. A scribbler in that Whig print, or rather Whig re-print, tho Savannah Republican, or MriMny, has thought lit torako up n spurious'handbill from the pages of 44 an Address of tho Louisiana Native American Association," for tlio purpose of casting an tmjuitutlun oh tho Irish adopted citizen* of Georgia, und especially those of Savannnh. I tell that scribbler, that I, an adopted citizen, believe that hundbill to bo forged for tho yllo party pur- pu-cs ofthe 117(<g«uml 41 Native American Party,’’ —and do bcliora that no such handbill was over circulated in New York—or, IF IT WAS, it was tlio work of some IVhigs of that city, to rn/ra/> und disgrace tho Irish adopted citizens. No deutomj- tic Irishman, over wrote it. What proof has tlio Whig writer, tlmt iho hand- hill ho mentions over existed J None—except tlm fact tljat,3it. appear* in a pamphlet’tlmt 'libels nil foreigners, French, Scotch, Itallutt—but more pcciatly THE IllISH—who lire iilwuy# made the oxporimoutnl blocks for every " Native American ’’ skave-brggar, to try his bund upon, like ttus scrib bler, in tlio Whig Republican. Tito existence of tlio handbill in thut 44 address,’’ is o proof that it is spurious—for tlioro aro not u dozen lines of truth iu tlio whole composition, How is it, that tlio Wigs nre over ready to abuse and condemn tbo Irish adopted citizens / llecuuxo they are not Whigs—nnd tlm countrymen of the gallant Muntciomku y, who reside lu SiiVun- tmh, ns they are elsewhere, aro—nearly to a man— Democrats, and supporters of thoso measures, which, if carried out, will cfi’octually nmko us one people. This Suvnunuli 1 Vhig would slander Irisli men—it is the nature of Whigs to do so. But tbo BALLOT-uux is ii weapon which tho Irish adopted citizons can use as woll ns tho Whigs—anil 1 liopo that noxt October, they will prove by their votes thut they have no sympathy with thoso who would deprive thorn of tho rights giluruntood to thorn hy tho Constitution—who would trumplo on tho green em blem of thoir country—und fling their lmrp to tho winds, Tlio writer signs himself a " File."
