•mcA a crisis, the "Old Roman” waa the only indi ▼idual, who, by hie gentle conciliatory course, would be able to unite all parties and bring back the golden days of the Republic. Although wo were told tbdt "General Jackson waa a Military Chieftain, fitted only for the field, and unable to interpret the plainest clause in the con stitution or to give effect to tho simplest laws;” we trusted that when elected to so high nnd responsible a station he would call around him able and faith ful advisers to aid him in tho discharge ofliis ardu. oue duties. Although we were told upon high authority, that, should he be elected "assassination would become the order of the day, and that it would bo nccossa. ry, to assure personal safety for our Legislators to go prepared to defend themselves with pistols in their belts, even within the walls of the Capitol;” yet wo trusted, notwithstanding these predictions, that public opinion, that public morality, would etifle a course culculatod to produce such a state of things; and we hoped that tho "Modern Cincin nati.” if he could not better the condition of the morals of tho people, would permit them to re main free from further pollution. Although we were told, that "ho would adminis ter the Government without any fixed principles, as ho was no civilian;” we trusted that he would develop something of tho character of his future course in regard to a few at least of the great lead ing measures of the country, and that some part of his policy would bo permanent and be relied on. The following gonlleincn were empowered to represent the meeting at Staunton, and to consti tute a county committee: John F. Sale, William L. Goggin Chapman Johnson, jr. Joseph Wilson, William Dickinson and Martin P. Burks. The following persons were appointed a com mittee of vigilance and correspondence, to wit: Pleasant Preston, John Chrenshaw, Robert Campbell, Robert C. Mitchell, Thomas Davis, Pas chal Buford, William Leftwich jr. James A. Wall er, Frederick Aunspnogh, Benj Hawkins, Wil liam Green, David Patterson, Win. T. Campbell, Col. David Sunders, William L. Walker, Silas Taylor, Michael Graham, John W. Holt, Mathew Pate, Baida McDaniel, Robert C. Steptoe, J. Had nall, George Steptoe, Henry W. Moseley and Thomas R. Clnvtor. ROCKBRIDGE. A meeting of National Republicans of the town and vicinity of Brownsburg, was held at that place on 30th June, Wm. Patton Esq. in the Ghair, and Dr. Wm. M. Gold and Isaac Thorn, Secretaries. Messrs. Hugh Adams, Capt, H. B. Jones, Dr. Gold, J. Addison Waddel, and Preston Trotter, were ap. pointed a committeo to prepare the Address and Re solutions, which warmly recommended Messrs. Clay and Sergeant. Messrs. A. B. Walker, Dr. Gold, Hugh Adams, and J. Addison Waddel, were chosen to attend the Convention at Staunton. Meetings are called in Jefferson, Botetourt, and other counties. In the remote counties of the West, many no doubt have been held, whose proceedings have not yet reached us. (En passant)—we never received the proceedings of tho meeting in Wythe, although assured by a friend that he had directed them to be forwarded.) The Convention at Staun ton will be well attended, sufficiently so for useful purposes. In fixing on se early a day as the 16th July, the same error was committed as by the Char lottesville Convention. The middle of August had been better, as giving tho people the opportunity of the July courts, and as better suiting the con venience of those who may wish to unite a visit to the Springs, with their duties at Staunton. But it is too late to correct the oversight. We confess that wo were opposed to the call of this Convention, believing such assemblages had become so common as to endanger the benefit that might be derived from them in times of public peril, and that the formation of an Electoral ticket could be as well performed by the Central Committee at Richmond. But as it has been determined upon, we earnestly call upon such counties as yet have the time, to combine their exertions, and upon the De legates appointed, to attend, even at some person, al inconvenience, as local information will be desire, able. This is no time to evado responsibility, or to shrink from any honorable exertion to atchieve the success of the principles which we believe idonti cal will public prosperity, and even with the gene, ral safety and poace of the country. Are we an. swered, despondingly, thatthore is no hope of car rying an Electoral ticket in favor of Mr. Clay? We deny the conclusion. There is hope. It cannot be affirmed there is no hope. We know not the extent of changes effected, or to be effected. The chances are certainly against our wishes, but while there is a possibility of success, especially when it is cor tain that tho display of the great strength which Mr. Clay possesses in the State, although inade. quate, will of itself havo a material and salutry in flueneo upon party and national affairs, every nerve should be strained, every hand uplifted, to array that strength at tho polls. Infirm must be the judg. ment, and weak and heartless the spirit, that will not fight to the uttermost in a noble and glorious cause, because the certainty of victory is wanting to stimulate effort. We have said before, and we now repeat it, that however unpromising our immediate prospects are in Virginia, tho general cause has recently assumed the most encouraging aspect. We assure our po_ litical friends that at Washington, the focus of po litical intelligence, the defeat of Jackson and elect, •on of Clay, is confidently anticipated: We hear it from numerous sources, both friendly and hostile— sources neither to be questioned in integrity or in telligence. A few weeks, or we are greatly mis taken, will produce a very goneral impression of the truth of this surmise, and such an impression once having become general, we need not dwell upon its effects, or its inevitable tendency to realize itself. In the sense of public duty, in tho respect wo owe to the cause which has engaged our judgment and affections, in the expectation that our activity will animate others, and in the cheering confidence of triumphing at last, wo have every inducement to impel us to action. THE VETO—LATE NEWS FROM WASH INGTON—THE BANK. By tin arrangement of tho Nat. Intelligencer, equally admirable for its convenience to the reader? of that excellent journal, and indicative of the un. wcariod zeal of it? proprietor?, we are put in pos. session of the transactions of the National Legis. lature of Saturday—Monday’s edition of the Daily Intelligencer, having been struck off on Saturday night, and thus reaching us Monday morning. Tho Tariff has passed the Senate by a vote of 31 to 15, two friends being absont. Tho vote in that body is thus in nearly the same proportion as that of the House. For the modifications made in the Senate i« the bill as it passed the House, we refer to the note of the National Intelligencer. They will probably be adopted in the House. Rumors wero thick and confident in this city yesterday, that the President would on Saturday, return the Bank Bill with his Veto. It will he seen that he did not do so howevor, on that day, what soever he may do thereafter. It is obvious that tho old man is closely besieged by both friends and foes, and that he is at a loss what to do. The truth is, that his prejudices aro strongly excited against the Institution, from an impression of its hostility to his election, studiously madohy its enemies. As to rational ideas and opinions of its constitutional, ity, expediency and operation, he has probably none that are distinct, nor is capable of forming any. He is a man of impulse, not of reflection and enquiry. He feels all imaginable disposition to veto, but that temper of mind is neutralized by the decisive votes of the two Houses, by the evident wish of the majority of the people for the conti nuance of the Bank, by the warm remonstrances of such of ite friends as sro also his, by a Inrking persuasion of its necessity, but abort all by the se /iUus consequences to!.itei.*.*'/, of vetoing. Hence the delectable dilemma ift which tho old gentleman finds himeelf. He ie embarrassed and distracted by the conflicting calculations which its friends and foe. lay before him of how hie vetoing or appro, ving, will affect the personal interest and populari. ty, of Andrew Jackson. Once autisfiied that tho veto would do him the least harm, we should have the vote forthwith with professions of his independ. once, and his resolution to do his duly at all ha zards; and once convincod, that approving would bo leant detrimental, tho signature woul d be at. tached without loss of time. From the opposing statements of his friends respecting his o pinioas, from his delay in acting on tho bill, and from the character of his Pre sidential conduct throughout, wo are justified in believing that his resolution whatever it may be. will be the offspring of unmixed calculation of con. sequences to himself. Are we uncharitable? Have we not seen his veto of the Meysville road, to eon. clliate the friends of State Rights, and at the fast and present session of Congress, have we not seen him sign away more than two millions of dollars, to purposes of Internal Improvement undistinguish, able in principle? Hew is it possible to believe the man capable of this irreconcileable and enormous inconsistency, to be influenced by principle? What can any man, except a besotted partisan think, but that at he had given offenco and injured himself by the Maysville and Frederick vetoes, his objoct was by singning the bills we have referred to, to restore good humor to the offended, and repair the damage inflicted on himself? If any other rational interpretation of his conduct can be given, we are ready to embrace it. As to the Bank, wo have ever believed until within two days, that he would pass the bill to re charter it. We well know his enmitv to the inati. tut ion, and that he had pronounced it unconstitu* tinal; but what could tho latter weigh with a man wlioae conception# of the behests of conscience are so weak, or indistinct, or changealdo, that at one session he vetoes the principle of Internal Improve ment, and sanctions it at tho next and succeeding? We thought :ie would sign, becauso it was obvious to us, that ho had more to loso by vetoing than by signing. Within two days wo have changed the opinion upon the following grounds: 1. He has signed tho Improvement Bill, ap. propriating eleven hundred thousand dollars to open rivor9, make breakwaters, Slc.I By this bill, Pennsylvania is especially benefited, the Delaware Breakwater constituting the largest item of appro priation. Having granted this bone to Pennsylva. nia, contrary to tho doctrines of the Maysville veto —contrary to his declared opinions oj the Con stitution—it struck us that ho had taken up the “balancing system," and determining to ve. to the Bank, so unanimously desired by Pennsyl vania, proposed to avert her displeasure by tbo concession to tho Delaware Breakwater! Hen. ven forgive us if we are uncharitable! We mean not to bo so voluntarily. But how else can wo account for his signing the Improve ment Bill, in tho face of the Maysville Veto, and tho most solemn and repeated protestations against tho constitutionality of the power of Improvement! If we sre uncharitable, tho ne cessity is forced upon us, is forced upon all, by the extraordinary and irreconcilable conduct of Gen. Jackson himself. His consistency in regard to this subject, was assailed on the floor of tho Senate it self, where not ono of his friends, supple and sub. servisnt as some of them are, would venture to compromit his own standing with men of sense, by defending the conduct of Jackson! If such pliant gentlemen are sil-nt on sueh an occasion—if nei ther Marcy nor Grundy, had a word to say, we may well believe that the act was indefensible on the principles laid down by the President himself. This was our first reason for expecting the veto. The second, was furnished by the Globe, the known confidential.mouthpiece of the President. We had hoard privately that the attempt was mak. ing to persuade the President, that he might ap prove or veto, with equal impunity to his popular, ity in Pennsylvania; that tho allegiance of that State was not to be shaken by either course! By the Globe of Saturday, we perceived that the Pre sident was likely to be convinced, or had been con vinced, that Ibis was so. That paper says: Signs in Philadelphia.—“A letter from tho city of the Bank, says: “While at table [celebrating the 4th 1 intelli. genco reached us that tho Bank bill had passed tho House. As a general impression prevails here that Gen. Jackson will put his veto upon it, it became the subject of much conversation, ai.d great interest was exhibited. It was evident that he would lose no hold of tho feelings of his friends in this city by that course. Tho following volun teer toast was given, which was received with uni. versal acclamations of applause: "Gen. Andrew Jackson—President of the United States. Ho will be sustained—Bank or no Bank.” The President may have been taught by gioro judicious friends, that the fact was different, but if he bo of that opinion, ho will undoubtedly veto. While it is apparent that the Hero is in tho ut most suspense and tribulation, invoking demons and spirits to inform him which is best for himself, tho weight of testimony inclines to the side of the Perhaps somo may ask us mentally, wliat will wo say it the old gentleman vetoes? Will we give him no oredit for deciding in opposition to what we believe to be his interest? If Iiq comes out with a plump and manly veto we will give him credit more credit than wc ever expected or now expect, to be called upon to give. But if he ac companies it, as he no doubt will, hy propitiatory palaver to Pennsylvania; if he shall take the ground that if another Congress passes the bill, (as he knows to a certainty another Congress will,) he will then approve it, In obedience to tho will of the People, then in our opinion, so far from deserving any credit, his electioneering hypocrisy will stand ; confessed to the eyes and understanding of all in telligent men. PENNSYLVANIA CANAL SYSTEM. The syatem of loan for Canal and Internal Im i provement purpoaes, which has been in operation in Pennsylvania for aomo yeara, and which haa in volved her in a debt of 18 millions, has been drawn in as an element of the hitter warfare now raging in her State politics. Tho Anti-Masonic party have commenced a furioua attack on the whole system, apparently with some reason, and with the aid of argumonts, evidently calculated to bring down popular odium upon it. Aa the end aimed at iathe rout of Gov. Wolfo and the election of Ritner aa Governor, the whole ain of the syatem is of course, visited by the Anti.masons upon tho head of Wolfe, probably with aa little justice as if usually observed in the wars of parties. We mcd. die not with that however, but use the following extract from tho Harsisbtirg Telegraph, as instruct ive and admonitory to Virginia: •‘Pennsylvania has been engnged more than so ven years in expending money in improving tho State by canals. Her State debt now amounts to near EIGHTEEN MILLIONS OF DOLLA RS. The revenue derived during the last year amount ed to little over thirty eight thousand, and thorn i* no probability that it will exceed it this. It is be lieved by good judges that the whole public im provemenls that have been made in Pennsylvania, could have been done, had they been managed by competent and faithful hands for six or seven mil. lions, at moat; but these canal nabobs of our mason ic administration have managed to spend the enor roous State debt without finishing any thing— without completing a ainglo lino of communica tion The greater part of the whole i» in .1 atate of dilapidation and decay. Bridges, aqueducts, locks, and dams, have been badly built, and are re quiring constant repairs. The embankments and walls are giving way on almost every line. Every raift sweeps away a portion of unsound and badly executed Work, and yet the State is paying a parcel of beardless and inoxperienced hoys high salaries to continue tho squandering system.” Mr. Van Buron late Minister to England, arri. ved at New York, in the packet York, on Wednes day. Mr. Van Buren very sensibly, and in good taste, declined receiving the gorgeous public attentions with which it was designed to mark his return to the Country. The following in his letter: ^ Statkn I si.a.id, July 5, 1832, Dear Sir—1 have beon informed that arrange, inents have been made to honor my return with more than ordinary ceremonies, and requested to remain at Staten Island sufficiently long to enable »ny fellow citizens to carry their kind intentions into effect. Duly sensible, as I am, of the honor which my political and personal friends propose to confer up. on me, I have nevertheless, felt it to he injr duty to incur the responsibility of disappointing their with es upon this occasion. Having understood that serious alarm is excited in Now York by a malignant disease, 1 have groat* ly preferred landing quietly in the city, and meeting my friends as I have formerly done, to being re. ccived in a public manner; particularly when from the apprehensions entertained, all festivity must be discordant with their feelings.

The United States Bank Charter Bill is in tho hands of tho President, and its latte in suspense. Tho opinion yesterday ap. peered to be, that lie will not sign the bill, but will return it this day, with his objections, to the House in winch it originated.—[Nuf. Int. From the National Intelligencer of this morning. At eight o’clock on Saturday evening, the Ta ■ riff Bill from the House of Representatives poss ; ed to a third reading in the Senate by a voto of | 31 to 15, two fricndB of the Bill being the only members absent. Some > f the main amendments made to tlie Bill in the Senate, and which yot re quire the concurrence of the House of Representa tives, and in which it seems to be ttumgbt that they may concur, are, the abolition of all duties on Tea and Coffee; the reduction, by one-half, of all ex. idling duties on Wines; the retaining of the pre sent rate of duty on sugar, at 3 cents per lb. in stead of. 24; fixing the duty on Cotton Bagging at 4 cents instead of 3J; fixing the ad valorem duty on Broad Cloths at 57 por cent, instead of 50 and sundry provisions repecting Lead, Copperas, Cor dage, Slc. Slc. The expected Veto of tho Bank Bill was not trensmitled to Congress by tho Prosident on Satur day, to the grout disappointment of those whose curiosity is excited on the subject. The opinion seemsyetto prevail, that ho will reject tho bill. It is now certain that Congress will not adjourn to-day, (Monday,) nor is it probable, unless some panic unhappily disperse thorn, that they will ad journ before this day week.

Iio fact that only twenty cases were yesterday reported, after the fourth of July, and after the disease had already been for ten days in the city, was justly looked upon as of good augu ry, Most of these were traceable dircotly to impru. dence or excess of some sort. It cannot bo too often repeated, or too strongly enforced, that tem. perance and calmese, pursuing one’s ordinary avo. cation, and avoiding all Cholera preventives, afford the best securities against disease.
