It said, that Gen Jackson, failed in his attempt to put down Judge White, is already glaring around his own state for some formidable foe upon whom to try his hand. He has become fully confirmed while at Washington in the idea of no longer victimizing by the day. he must still try to immolate one occasionally to the dear ghost. He is like the ravenous butcher, who, after his three years neat from business on a large scale, could not sleep at night without cutting every evening. Was it that the result of the Kentucky elections will the leaders of the shinplaster party to pick up their shinplasters and make the best of their way unto the state. The editor of the (Globe?) has recently published to the poor cheek what purports to be a dialogue between inanimated animals. He attempts to make the beasts all like rational beings. He thinks to give an air of elevated imitation of nature. in me. as in the case of himself. gives himself same. We have at our office a huge Van Buren shinplaster, which we consider a curiosity. The engraving represents Jackson as riding a big hog, and Benton's jackass, and both spurring as for life after the sold humbug." a haunted phantom that flees before them whilst. in their hot pursuit, they are on the very point of plunging headlong over a tremendous precipice directly upon the United States Bank which stands at its base. It is evident, from the height of the precipice, that the riders and their beasts must be mutilated and mashed by the fall, that Old Jackson will hardly be distinguishable from his own hog or Benton from his jackass. Van Buren, who is riding far in the rear upon the back of a sly Kentucky fox, espies the danger ahead, and not wishing his pledge to follow in his master's footsteps to be tried, his fox slides into a snug and smooth hit the bush, and makes directly for the bank without risking the danger of tumbling upon it from the height at which his friends feet. It is certainly a most amusing scene and we are happy about to witness the result. "The Administration propose a separation of Government from people." [Journal of Com. Well-] Government has become such a nuisance, that perhaps the further it is separated from the people the more grateful the people ought to be. When do the Van Buren men intend to have their barbecue on account of the Congressional elections in Kentucky. Have they commenced fattening their pigs and poultry? A letter from Kentucky speaking of some of the new members of Congress, recently elected from that State says:- "Mr. Southgate, in point of talents, is one of the first men in Kentucky - in politics he is an uncompromising Whig - and I suppose has as little love for Amos Kendall and Martin Van Buren, as any man in the nation. - I think he is more like Hon. H. A. Wise, than any man I know of. Mr. Menifee, (Whig) elected over Judge French, V. B. man in the 11th District, will be the youngest man in Congress, - he is but 27 years of age - but a gentleman of superior talents. He distinguished himself in the Legislature of Kentucky last winter."
