The Reporter, published in Washington, Pennsylvania, on the 7th inst., says "all must remember that the Jackson elector for this county in 1824, is now for the Administration: three of the standing committee appointed by the Harrisburg Jackson Convention, have turned from him; and that the more the people become acquainted with the character of Gen. Jackson, the more they dread his elevation to a place he is totally unqualified to fill."

We would very respectfully ask, what do these things prove? We answer, that the military fever which pervaded the people in 1824 has subsided, and that a healthful reaction in public sentiment has taken place.
