THE PRESIDENT. At a meeting assembled at Hartford, Conn. on the 8th Jan. last, a committee was appointed to invite Gen. Jackson to visit New-England, at such time as might be convenient to him. In reply to their communication, the President says:

"Could any thing add to the desire I have long indulged to visit New-England, and examine the republican institutions which her sons have raised up with so much public spirit and success, it would be the satisfaction I should expect to derive from a personal intercourse with the citizens themselves. I am at present unable to say when I can embrace an opportunity to gratify this desire; but I trust it may be in my power in the course of the present or the next year."

In reference to this invitation, the Washington Globe observes:

"The necessity of occasional relaxation from labor, to one so incessantly engaged as the President, will, we think, prompt him to comply with the wishes of his New-England friends during the approaching season of comparative leisure."
