The "State of Buncombe" embraces no small por Jackson, "without impugning tlic character of tliat great man, he must say that he had never seen tlie policy of any man vary so much and so often as his when occasion required." This is rank treason a-gainst the old Hero, and we expect to see Messrs. Khctt and Holmes read out of the pnrty. The bill was not disposed of. On Thursday, Mr. McKay, remarking that lie bad made several unsuccessful attempts to induce the House to take up his bill to amend thc Tariff, gave notice that he woidd renew the motion, for thc last time if the House should refuse, on Monday the 22d.

This is a pretty story, but it happens, whole of it, Gen. Jackson's and his bolScr commentator's to be, all falsk! The Intelligencer refers to thc American State Papers, vol. 4, beginning at page 422, and extracts those portions of the official corresjiondcv.ee bearing on thc subject, from which it appears, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that Mr.

Erving went to Madrid with full powers and instructions to settle this very boundary question! It was not in 181-19, a date falsely fixed upon to identify Mr. Adams with thc treason," but in 1816, when Mr. Monroe, and not Mr. Adams, was Secretary of State. In accordance with a suggestion of Don Luis de Tiie following sentence is worth extracting 'It is with forces thus dispirited by defeat, and in open mutiny against the tyranny of party leaders, that the publican army is staked to contend against the mighty, united, and enthusiastic hosts bended by lleiirv Clay a Icadtr lame.d lor the devotion of bis tion of Western North Carolina, but this is thc first time wc ever heard that Rutherfordton, the county scat of Rutherford, formed a part of it.

Clay and the Whig party to prefer that mode of supporting thc "democrats" is called to a resolution adopted in And it may well he asked of any man, in what re Philadelphia, against "the danger and impropriety tliere is in meeting with and assisting to swell the number, and add to thc resjiectability of the meetings of" tlie Whigs! Thc Carolinian itself thinks that every Democrat should studiously avoid all the W'hig hows and gatherings of every sort. So thought the Standard, too, when it warned thc Locofocos against getting within sound of Mr. Clay's voice. We are spect he is poorer, or worse off, in consequence of this Tariff, than he was bclire it was passed, or would have been without it? Let any man sliow wherein he is damaged, not by vague generalities, or follows: "Finally, the questions respecting boundaries, which have hereto! ore been supposed to offer some obstacles to a settlement of other differences, the American Government considers as susceptible of amicable adjustment; and I am instructed to treat th your Excellency on that subject."

Mr. Erving says, in a letter to Mr. Monroe of tlie 22d Sept, "My own decided opinion was that thc negotiation might be carried on to much greater advantage, and brought to a conclusion much more expeditiously at Washington than here." "What now, (asks the Intelligencer,) becomes of the three main points of this story 1st, the treaty of which tlie basis was laid; 2d, Mr. Erving's want of powers; 3d, thc transfer of the negotiation, and its authors or motives?

Fayetteville, April 19, 1844. 3-Gm watchs7 WATCHES AND JEWELRY. es are moving his favor. They see in Ui nomination the only hope of escape from tlie rule of thcrop- i portents for thc ncxi twenty years. True to themselves, their principles, and tli cause of liberty, they rerl the seductive approaches of those wlw would bind their limbs with the manacles of an irre-sponsible and selfUh cabal.

Wc beseech our friends every where to move forward. Persevere in the good work. The sins are auspicious. A united, energetic, and determined effort will yet save thc party. I--t no county or district in the Union be unrepresented in the Tyler Democratic National Convention which is to assemble at Baltimore on th 4h Monday May next Be vijilant, be active, and "harmonious.

Suffer not tho desponding or compromising friend to control your Select firm, decided, unyielding friends of John Tyler, and none otlirr, as delegates. Let none doubt tlie result If we fail, thc responsibility is not ours. But we will not faiL For "Freedom's battle once begun, Though bamcd oft, is ever won." There ig at least" one thing made more evident by this Tyler movement, viz; that aD parties are fully satisfied that Van Burcn cannot he elected. Many honest men of his party do not hesitate to admit this. And wc care not whom they run, tho same fate a-waits him.

Henry Clay will distance the field. have just met with an amusing account of a hunt for a Tyler man to go as a Delegate to the Convention so warmly recommended in the Manifesto. false statements, but by its ptaetical operation upon himself. We defy any man to show it And, with all the predictions of the Loeofoeo party thus falsified, with their refusal to Icam wisdom by all this experience, with what face can tlic Statesmen of that party look to the people for support? A a well might a farmer be expected to retain an overseer whose whole system of cropping was fatal to the improvement of the farm, and destructive of the prosperity of his employer who, in one word, neither understood his duty, nor would be instructed in it The Grcensborough Patriot, always a favorite and welcome print, comes to us in a much enlarged and handsome new dress. Wc understand that its improvement ia bnt a type of that which is taking place flH largest and most opten- did assortment of Witch JL es in the City, is to be found at the Subscriber's, as he is constantly receiving all descriptions of GOLD AND SILVER WATCHES, of the newest styles, from thn not surprised at these things.

There is something so attractive in our Candidates and their principles, and their certain success, that it is dangerous for an honest Loeofoeo to come within their influence. We. on the contrary, do not fear thc contagion of Loco-focoism, and so, instead of cautioning our readers a-gainst going to hear Mr. Hoke, we publish his appointments. We hope our readers arc better informed than to be in danger of being proselyted.

The Carolinian says that "Mr. Clay, in defiance of the instructions of the Kentucky Legislature, by his vote made John Q. Adams President" What right had the Legislature of Kentucky to instruct Mr. Clay, who was a Representative of the people of tbe Lexington District? None whatever! And the Legislature did NOT instruct him, as the very article on which the Carolinian founded its remarks fully shows. The Legislature rtqtusted the Representatives of tliat State to vote for Gen.

Jackson, whom the people of the State themselves had not voted for,) but tlic people whom Mr. Clay represented requested him to do otherwise. He received, "unexpectedly and unsolicited, from a highly respectable portion of his constituents, a paper, dissenting from the request of thc Legislature, and instructing him to vote agreeably to his own judgment, and the best lights he may have on the subject, with or without the of the Legislature." He did so CUSSIOT in thc town in which it flourishes. A gentleman who position to him, without evcif point, and before he himself one le any owers; hgible ne proposal. They "Uy sh- nnH thev rTntlTl.r' recently visited it after a year's absence, informs us tliat he was astonished at the number of new buildings he found, and at the general appearance of increased -r.
