Hurd Case.—From the following extract from the Western Reserve (Ohio) Chronicle, it would appear that a certain portion of Trumbull County in that State is likely to be deprived of a Post Office because there is no Jackson resident to be found to fill the situation of Postmaster. Perhaps New York and Baltimore might spare a few of the aliens, whose suffrages turned the scale in those cities in favor of General Jackson, for such cases. They are as much entitled to their reward as the other partisans of General Jackson, and their services will not be required again till the fall of 1832, by which time new importations will have arrived. As the Editor of the Chronicle and his correspondent give a fair description of Trumbull County, it is to be hoped that some Jackson man may be found willing to change his place of habitation, for the honor and emolument of the vacant office.—[Nat. Jour.

From the Western Reserve Chronicle.

We commend to the notice of our readers and all concerned, the following communication. If there are any persons in our neighborhood of the description, we think they will not fail to accept the reward offered by our correspondent. We can bear testimony of the truth of the statement made by "A Citizen of Hartford," that the situation at the centre of that township is pleasant and healthful; and we will further add, for the information of persons at a distance, who may think of going to that place, that the society is good, and that whoever accepts the offer will find himself located among a sober, industrious, and well informed people. We will not say this is the reason why there are so few Jackson men—the reader must draw his own conclusion.

Messrs. Hapgood & Crowell—I wish to make known to your readers, through the medium of your paper, that any one of them who has distinguished himself in promoting the election of our present chief magistrate, and has been disappointed in receiving the expected reward for the same, that there yet remains a chance of his being accommodated, on condition of his removing immediately to the centre of our township. Our former postmaster having removed some distance from the place of keeping the post office, considered it his duty to resign; which he did, and, in conjunction with a number of his fellow citizens, recommended his deputy, who, for a long time, has been the efficient postmaster, as a suitable person to succeed him. Some of our worthy citizens have been a good deal puzzled to account for the delay of the expected commission.—But as the petitioners did not certify that the gentleman nominated was a true devotee of General Jackson, we think the delay is at once accounted for.

This places us in rather an unpleasant dilemma, as every man in the immediate vicinity of the post office, and nearly all in the township, have (according to the system of reform) rendered themselves ineligible to an office under the general government by voting for John Quincy Adams. Unless some thorough-going Jacksonian will take pity on us and kindly locate himself amongst us, we do not see but we will be under the necessity of doing without a postmaster.

We feel confident, however, that some of your readers have been disappointed in not receiving their expected reward, and will be willing to submit to the trifling inconvenience of removing without delay to the centre of our township. The situation is pleasant and healthful; and as no qualifications will be required but a firm devotion to General Jackson and his measures, right or wrong, we hope to be soon supplied.

A Citizen of Hartford, Trumbull Co. Ohio.
