Resolved, That the powers assumed by the present Chief Magistrate of this nation, are such as cannot be tolerated consistently with civil and political freedom that in him, the appointing and removing power, the sword, and the purse, are all united, and that this union more characteristic of an Oriental Despotism than of a Republican government. Resolved, That while our adversaries charge it upon the Whigs of 1834, that they have frequently changed their names, without ever changing their principles--we charge it back upon our adversaries, that they have frequently changed their principles, without changing their name, that under the name of DEMOCRAT, before the election of General Jackson, they APPROVED OF HIS SERVING BUT ONE TERMDISAPPROVED OF HIS APPOINTING MEMBERS OF CONGRESS OFFICE WERE IN FAVOR OF RETRENCHING THE EXPENSES OF VERNMENTWERE OPPOSED TO REMOVAL FROM OFFICE FOR OPINION'S SAKE: And that since his election, under the same abused name they have SUPPORTED GENERAL JACKSON A SECOND TERMHAVE APPROVED OF APPOINTING MEMBERS OF CONGRESS OFFICE HAVE SANCTIFIED TILE MOST WANTON AND LAVISH EXPENDITURE OF THE PUBLIC MONEYS, AND HAVE MADE PROSCRIPTIAN THE ORDER OF THE DAY."

For the Loug- Island Star. A FEW WORDS TO IRISHMEN. No.

Il. Mr. SPOONER: In my first communication, I endeavored electoral impress privilege, that GENERAL JACKSON WAS it upon my countrymen who are entitled to the NO LONGER IN THE FIELD. When his present term expires, he will have served EIGHT exceeded YEARS, which period of service has never been by any jcan President. then is to be his successor? The scheming managers of party, who endeavor to take every thing from the hands BUREN people, SHALL determined HIS that MARTIN VAN BE SUCCESSOR.

IS IT RIGHT THAT THE MAN WHO WAS TO DEPRIVE EVERY POOR MAN OF HIS VOTE, SHALL DESIROUS 1 TO OFFICE BY THE INFLUENCE THE VERY BE TOTES RAISED HE DESPISED Forbid it justice forbid it every principle of honor and good feeling! My of countrymen are slaves, though the Jackson leaders this place have always considered them as slaves--and still believe, that the coming election they can lead them as they please. Such Jackson men may be, and ought to be disappointed MARTIN My countrymen cannot knowingly vote for VAN BUREN. I beg them to keep this in mind, that in. voting for the miscalled Jackson I cket, the Marcy ticket, or the Jackson rulers in this county choose to cali whatever they are for MARTIN VAN BUREN.

Shame voting the son of Erin who shall ever he instrumental in putting this man, for the this first mere political and statesmen. demagogue, in the place intended patriots A word further. I have been told that the Irish will cote the party ticket, whatever it may be -that the mere name Democratic Ticket IS ENOUGH FOR THEM." I can assure those who have this belief, with that they Irishmen, are mistaken. A mere name is not enough though they, like all other people, are likely to be deceived by mere names. The name of democrat, which should ways sanction honesty of sentiment and purity of motive, has been made the cognomen of mere party.

It is now used for purposes of deception by the party in this state, those lender, MARTIN VAN BUREN, would deprive every Irishman of a -by the party in this place who would use the Irishmen of Brooklyn for their own purposes, BUT WOULD NEVER PERMIT ONE OF THEM TO HOLD AN OFFICE. This is true. Let Irishmen lonk to the proof. Every one of them has this proof, or may easily find it. What have Irishmen gained by following the dictates those in this place who have led them, and pretended to guide them? They have been continually deceived and have lost their votes and their labor! This should not be.

disappointed! A few intriguers have profited, and they Irishmen should read, think, and act for themselves: they should not be deluded by the mere chinking and glare of a Rule gold, where they get none nor by an outcry against bank whose paper they never see, while they continually ger their hard earnings in the small rag-money bills of the banks of MARTIN VAN BUREN. I have next week a story to tell, which will show the alter heartlessness of this man toward an unprotected young Irishman, who came to this country to earn his bread. If here is any thing that Irishmen despise, it is an utter want heart, The heart of Martin Van Buren is as hard as the nether millstone. No true Irishman who has a soul of his on can ever vote for him directly or indirectly. FIFTH WARD.

For the Long-Islaud Star: FARMERS OF KINGS COUNTY. MR. SPOONER: I am glad to find that the farmers of our county are alive to the subject of the approaching election. time they should show their strength. At no election late years, has the whole vote of our county been polled and believe very fow can tell how strong the Noting power of the country towns of our county is.

There is reason that this power should be shown now, more particularly than at any other time. For myself, I am, as you know, a staunch Whig, and hope the country towns will prove to be so: but whether they are so or not, hope every vote will be polled and counted, whether they Whig or Tory. I know not what you may think, but some of us have reason to believe that Brooklyn is endeavoring to swallow the rest of the county. All the offices and officers are now there, and there is a narrow-minded cabal who congregate in the vicinity of your Municipal Court- cut and carve things to suit -and having divided the spoils, put themselves upon the country to confirm their title. They have no fellowship, but rather enmity for the country, and whatever we may give them they take, fielding nothing in return.

I mistake: they do indeed come up to Flatbush two or three times a year, to confirm the decision of their Bronklyn caucusses. Bat we farmers and Dutchmen have yet some influence, and I trust our people will show it in the number of their antes. They should lay aside all minor jealousies and bickerings, and go to the polls regularly and in their full strength. Let the next vote show the power of the county, that Brooklyn may see that we are not of 50 trifling a force, as some of the office holders there imagine. I have taken the liberty to send you this, which I trust you will insert, as your paper circulates freely in the county, and it is seldom we countrymen claim so large a space for our own peculiar notions.

HENDRICK. Gravesend, Oct. 10, 1834. For the Long leland Star, Mr. EDIToR.

-The firemen of Brooklyn merit, and do Erceive much praise for their promptitude and industrious Zeal in extinguishing the late fire in Elicks-street. From the extremely combustible materials of which the building was composed where the fire originated, and being the silent hour of midnight when it was first disenvered, the fire of course made ruinous progress before its ravages could be arrested. A line however, was soon formed and brought to bear upon the fire. Each of the opposing elements now struggled for victory till at length the fire was compelled to yield upits pretentions to supremacy and was fast leaving the battle ground of contest. But the capacious cistern from which a supply had been obtained now became exhausted.

The flames now kindled with redoubled fury, and were fast spreading the fiery mantle of Abednego upon the exterior of Mr. Grove's cottage. At this critical moment an attempt was made to obtain a further supply of from a private cistern in the neighborhood. Wellhat said the owner of the cistern I have no water to want it for the use of any famity The firemen innhad acted nobly--they had perforined every thing but possibilities, but without water the fire had to take its own course, and before another line could be formed from Cranberry-street cistern, Mr. Grove's cottage was heap of burning ruins--himself, family, and furniture turned into the streets.

Cistern water is indeed valuable if a few hogsheads of it worth more than the dwelling house of a neighbor. The must indeed be a generous provider of family conveniences, who is so anxinas to provide rain water for them, That he will see the whole earthly inheritance of a neighconsumed for the wane of it.
