We deem a suitable notice of bis life and death both useful and proper. It will deter others from jumping from the same heights that Sam did: and in these times ot po litical excitement, why may not politicians derive a useful moral from the same, and learn to jump with moderation? They should be cautious of the cheerings and shootings of the warm partizar.s, for verily, in politics, as in perpen dicular heights, there are some jumps which are fata!. BIOGRAPHY OF SAM PATCH. Pawtucket is a famous place, Where cotton cloth is made, And hundreds think it no disgrace To labor at the trade. Among the spinners there was one, Whose name was Samuel Patch; He moped about and did his rtint— Folks thought him no great scratch. But still a maggot in bis head, Told Sam he was a ninny, To spend bis life in twirling thread, fust like a spinning Jenny. And if he would become renown’d, And live in song or story, ’Twas tim» he should be looking round For deeds of fame and glory. “What shall I do?”quoth honest Sam, “There is no war abretving; “And duels are but dirty things, “Scarce worth a body’s doing. “And if I should be President, “1 see I’m up a tree; “For neither priests nor Congress-men “Have nominated me.” But still that maggot in his head Told Sam he was a gump, For if he could do nothing else, Most surely he could jump! “Ay, right,” quoth Sam, and out be went, And on the bridge he stood, And down he jumped full twenty feet, And plung’d into the Hood. * And when he safely swam to land, He stood there like a stump, And all the gaping crowd cried out, “O what a glorious jump!” New light now shone in Samuel’s eyes, His heart went pit a pat, “Go bring a ladder here,” ho cries; “I’ll jump you more than that.” The longest ladder in the town Against tbe factory was rear’d, And Sam chimb up, and then jump’d down, And loud and long the gapers cheer’d. Be.«i !es Uic maggot in bis head, Sam’s ear now felt a flea: “I’ll raise some greater breezes yet: “What’s this dull town to me?” And off he went on foot full trot, His hopes ol fame his bosom fired, At Paterson in Jersey state, lie stopt awhile, for Sam was tired. And there he mounted fur a jump, And crowds came round to view it, And all began to gape and stare, And cry, “How dare you do it?” But Sam ne’er heeded what they said, His nerves warnt made to quiver, And down be jump’d some fifty feet, And plash’d into the l iver. “Hoo-rah,’themnb cried out amain, ‘Hoo-rah,’ from every threat was pouring, And echo eried liGo-rah again, Like a housami lions roaring. Sam’s fame now spread both far and w ide, And brighter grew from day to day, And wheresoe’er a crowd convened, Patch w as the lion of the play. From ship mast he would jump in sport, Apd spring from highest factory walla; Anu proclamation soon was made That lie would leap Niagara Falls. “What for?” inquired an honest Hodge; “Why scare to death our wives and mothers?” “To show’ that that some things can be done,” Quoth Sam, “as well as others.” Ten thousand people thronged the shores, And stood there all agog, While Sam approach’d these awful falls, And leapt them like a frng. And when they saw his neck was safe, Apd he once more stood on his feet, They set up such a deafening cheer, Niagara’s roar was fairly beat. Patch being but a scurvy name, They solemnly did there enact, That he hcnceforwaid should be called “Squire Samuel CP Cdlaracl." And here our hero should have stopt, And husbanded hia brilliant fame; But, ah, he took one leap too much, And ’most all heroes do the same. Napoleon’s last great battle prov’d His dreadful overthrow, And Sam’s last jump was a fearful one, And in death it hid him low. That at the fall of Gennesee, He jumped down six score feet and five, And in tbe waters deep he sunk, And never rose again alive. The crowds with fingers in their mouths, Turn’d homewards one by one, And nft with sheepish looks they said, “Poor Sam’s last job is done.” An Editor.-— 1 The following is extracted from “Paul Clifford.” Those Editors who have so often killed the present President of the United States, or tried to make him sick, may profit by learning how they do those things in England. They have heretofore been mere bunglers at the business, ami (5en, Jackson was never in bettor health in his lite. —[U. S. Telegraph. At the apartment of MacGrawler, Paul one morning encountered Mr. Augustus Tomlin son, a young man of great promise, who pur- sued the peaceful occupation of making for a lending news paper, ‘Horrid Murders,’ Enor mous Melons,’ and ‘Remarkable Circumstan ces.’ This gentleman having the advantage of some years’ seniority over Paul, was slow in unbending his dignity*, but observing at last the eager and respectful attention with which the stripling listened to a most veracious detail of five men being inhumanly murdered in Canterbury Cathedral by the Rev. Zede- kiah Fooks Barnacle, he was touched by the impression he had created, and snaking Paul graciously by the hand, he told him, there wus a deal of natural shrewdness in his coun* ternanc: and that Mr. Augustus Tomlinson did not doubt that he (Paul) might have lhe honor to be murdered himself one of these days. ‘You understand me! continued Mr Augustus,—I mean murdered in effigy,—assas- inatedin type,-while you yourself, uncoo- -Clous of the circumstance, are quietly eojoy- .ng IVhat you imagine to be jour existence. We never kill common persons; to pnj the truth, our chief spite is against th^ Cfaufeh;— we destroy bishops by whole sale. Sninetimes indeed we knock over a leading barrister or so; k express the anguish of the junior counsel at a loss so destructive to their intereds. But that is only a stray hit, and the slain barrister often lives to become Attorney General, renounces whig principles, and prosecutes the very press that destroyed him. Bishops are our proper food, we send them to heaven on a sort of fly ing griffin, of which the back is an appoplexy, and the wings are puff*. The Bishop of- whom we dispatched in this mannnr the other day, being rather a facetious personage, wrote to remonstrate with u» thereon; observing, that though heaven was a very good translation for a bishop, yet that, in such cases, he preferred ‘the original to ihe translation.’ As we mur- j der Bishops, so is there another class of per sons whom we only afflict with letiferous drs- easDs. This latter tribe consists ofbis Majes- j and his Majesty’s Ministers. Whenerer we cannot abuse their measures, we always fill foul on their health. Doe® the King nass any popular law,—we immediately itsinuate that hss constitution is on its last legs Doe? (ho minister act like a man of sense—we in stantly observe, with great regret, that his complexion is remarkably pale. There is one manifest advantage in diseasing the people ; instead of absolutely destroying them Tbe pnbUc may ftutiv contradict us in on* case, but it never can in the other:—it is rasy to prove that a man i3 alive* but utterly impossi ble to prove that he is in health. What if some opposing newspaper take up the cudgels in his behalf, and assert that the victim of all Pandora’s complaint?, whom*’we sem^tottering to the grave, passes one half the day in knock* ing up a distinguished company’ at a shooting party, and the other in outdoing the samp ‘dis tinguished company’ after dinner'? What if the afflicted individual himself write us word that he never was better in his life.—we have only misteriouslv to shake our heads, and ob serve, that to contradict is not to prove.—that it is little likely that our authority should have been mistaken, and (and we are verv fond of an historical comparison)—beg our readers to remember, that when Cardinal Richelieu was dying, nothing enraged him so much as hint ing that he was ill. ‘Why, sir. you would not believe it; but 1 was the man who killed his Majesty the King of Sardinia in our yesterdays paper. Nothing is too arduous for genius. Fag hard my bov\ and you may rival-for Ihe thing, though diffi. cult, may not be impossible—Augustus Tom linson!’ DE KALB. The subjoined narative, relating to the death of the Baron Do Kalb, was furnished from the late Rev Mr. Hunter who was taken prisoner by the British, and witnessed the iucidents which he describes It has not before been published, and may be read with some interest. “The action was nearly at a close wheB 1 was taken prisoner. A few minutes after, Bar on De Kalb without suit or aid, and without manifesting any design or object, came post ing along. He was soon descried by the sol diers, who clapping thm’r hands on their shoul ders (referring to his epauletts.) cried out ‘A General! a rebel General!’ Immediately a man on horse back (not Tarlton) met him and de manded his sword The Baron very reluct antly presented the handle towards him saying — Qu’il vous etes un officier, Monsieur?’— (You are an officer, sir?) His antagonist with an oath, more peremptorily demanded his surrender. Tbe Baron then with all possible speed moved up the way The cry ‘A rebel General,’ sounded before him. He fell from his horse mortally wounded, his.body being perfor ated with seven bullets. Immediately after his fall he was divested of his hat and neck cloth, coat and waistcoat; he was then raised to his feet and placed against a pine po9t—his shirt, drenched with blood, lay close to his body. At every respiration, a copious flow of blood was evident from almost every wound.- He died that evning. His retpains were car ried to Camden and there interred with the honors of war. This tragedy was acted im mediately under my eye' where to mistake could occur; & never let it be said a^ain to the honor of Tarlton, that he, by his p*rsonal prowess, wounded and made prisoner ihe hrave, but unfortunate De Kalb.—Western Chronicle. Liberty Hall.—Old Hey wcode tells a story of a woman that “had a husband, who custo- mably came drunke home, aid shrinking from his stoole or chaire, would often fall on the floore, and there lie along; and still when she called him to bed he would answer her, ‘Let me alone, the tenement is mine owne and I may lye where I list, so long as I pay rent for the house.’ Some few nights after, coming home in the like tune, and sitting asleepee in a chaire before the chimney, his wife having gone to bed, prescntlie the man falls into the fire. The maid cries out to her misstresse, Oh! mistress, my master is falne and lyes in the fire, even in the midst of all the fire.’— She lav still, and turning on the other side, sayd, “so long as hee paye9 rent for the house he may lye where lie Iisteth.” An American drnnimer having strolled from the camp, approached the English lines, and before he was aware, was seized by the piquet, and carried before the commander on suspi cion of being a spy, disguised in a drummers uniform- On being questioned he honestly told the truth, and declared who and what he was. This not gaining credit, ax drum was sent for, and he was desired to beat a couple of marches, which he readily pertormed and thus removed the commander’s suspicion of his assuming a fictitious character. “But my lad,, said he, let me now hear yon beat a re treat.” “A retreat!" replied the drummer^ “there is no such beat in our service.” Pi.—The United States Gazette gives the following pleasant account of a sorrowful acci dent, by which pi—neither the Greek charac ter, nor the well savoured article constructed out of floor and pumpkins by our pilgrim fa thers, but Printer’s pi.—was manufactured in a summary manner We were sent for yesterday morning to visit the press room of our office, where a form of the paper had fallen into pi. We gazed with mournful visage at the ‘ w*reck. of matter” and sighed to think how evanescent were the caus es of felicitation. But a few moments before and the form lay before us “a map of busy life. There was Greece and the story of her mutations, and in delightful juxta-position was Turkey; to the left, Spain and Portugal were remembered; our own country had its locations and its events were recorded with a glowing pen. The scenery was enriched with fleet? of ships sailing in “columns” and here and there a bouse dotted the landscape, the bard was heard from Parnasus, and hymen lighted hi? torch with glee. But how changed! What a revolution—a convulsion. The packets and steam boats lay bottom upwards on the “Al leghany Portages,” ‘‘real estate in Chesnut- street” had fallen indeed; and an “extract from Dr. Channing’s sermon” was found in the midst of one our correspondent’s “moral es says” repoits of public sales” and recent ap poiqtments” were huddled together; “Greece” was mingled* with the concerns of the allied powers;” “marriages” were all in confusion; and an enumeration of the leading politicians of the times, had fallen among articles “for sale.’ While we stood in the midst of the broken form, like Marius among the ruins of Carthage we were called from onr contemplation by the philosophy of our devil, who, with his compos ing stick in hand had set himself down to the work of reform, quoting from Pope the admi rably adanted line. “All Jorms that perish, other forms supply.” NEWSPAPERS. If the intellectual superiority of a couniry is indicated by the number of its public Jour nals, the United States of America i? the most intellectual people in the world. For a population of 11,000,000 and a half, it pro vides 850 journals, being in proportion of 1 journal to every 13,600 individuals. England with a population of 23,000,000 has only 483 journals, making the proportion as 1 to 48 * 500 But there are many gradations of the scale between both. Saxony has 54 journals, and her population is only 1,000,000 and a half, being in proportion of 1 to 26,000. Den mark, with a population of 2,000,000 and a half, publishes 80 journals, being 1 to 31,000.

Some of our neighbors tell us that the re* marks we lately made in reply to the Georgia Journal were too hot, that they inculpate*! every Troup man in the State. It is true we spoke of the Troup party generally. There were no verbal exceptions in our remarks— But we are willing now as we always have been, to believe that there are those of that party, to whom oUr late remarks are inapplica ble—When we speak of a party, this excep tion is always implied and understood—This admission is conceding enough. We Would be glad to know with wbat sort of grace, with what light, it can be demanded of us to say no thing in reply to an attack nr-tde upon u» (our whole party.) An attack which was to rivet us in obscurity and make us slaves-^-It is not a little wonderful that, some well meaning men can see violence only on one side—-only in certain news papers! Is there no violence in having began seven years ago to distribute offi ces to men of a certain faith, excluding all others? And in pursuing that course to this day? It is true that among other wise dis- dispensalions cfDivme Providence, there was an interruption, a suspension of the deadly blast tor one year, the year 1825—su this year the Clark party, having a majority made use of it, iuflnenced, we suppose, by the example of their more wise opponents, and. their convic tion of duty—-for this they are never to be for gotten or forgiveh—but meetings are ordered by tbe Georgia Journal to assemble in every county to concert plans for the election of Troupers cmly—to doom to perpetual privacy and inferiority every citizen, no matter hotv pure his private character, or patriotic his pub lic services, who happens to vole for another individual instead of Governor Troup-Our op ponents seem to have forgotten that we are human heings as well as themselves—beings who even yet have some feeling which ought not to be trampled—natives of the same State in many instances-—maintaining identically the same Constitution—progeny of the same rev olutionary ancestry—beneficiaries and sub jects of the same atonement—seed of the same original parent—worshippers alike of the same living God We beg that odr friendly opponents will not again be surprised if we complain a little— Look at the number of good soldiers in the late war, and good citizens since—Look at the cumber ul young men, honest, highminded, brave; generous young men of this pariy, now rising into life-—then look into the Georgia.

From the United States' Telegraph. GENERAL JACKSON’S PRINCIPLES. Among the charges now brought against General Jack- son, it is said that he imposed upon ihe electors bj induc ing a belief that he was in favor of Mr. Clay's system of Internal Improvement. Gen. Jackson has approved the appropriation for the Cumberland Road. We do not know of any appropriation similar to that for tbe Mays- vitle and Rockville Turnpike Companies that has, at any previous time received the sanction of. Congress. The question as to them is therefore new, and is to be tested upon its awn merits. None of his opponents have re viewed General Jackson’s argument upon that subject. Until that be satisfactorily refuted all invective is out of or der. Bat to show that he has been consistent, that his views were fairly and fully before the public, we republish his letter to Mr. Dickson, written in 18Q1, and republish ed during the canvas in this and almost every republican press in 1828. It is as .follows: Knoxville, Sept. 1st. 1601. Dear Sir:—Through life I have held it a sacred duty I owed to my country and myself, never to give my suf frage to a. candidate for a scat in the Congress of the U- nited States, unless I was convinced that his political sen timents wtre congenial with those he represented, and that he would speak and do the will of his constituents; and being now informed that you are a candidate for the honor of representing, the citizens of the State of Tennessee in the representative branch ol the Federal Legislature—be lieving as I do, that any citizen'who does obtain the suf frage of the freemen of Tennessee, must be a character, the composition of which is virtue, talents, and the true whig principles of seventy-six; in short, Sir,.that he must be a Republican, and in politics, tike CCesar's wife, not only chaste but unsuspected. The first two component parts of this character I know you to possess; the latter as to myself 1 have ever thought you did.- But, Sir, the public mind has been lately led to believe that your political sentiments are doubtful, and some have heldjrouup as an aristocrat.
