“ Although this meeting was convened lor the

liar fitness of Andrew Jack-on for the Presidency j

These Resolutions were cairicil unanimously.
The following is the nccount of the adjourned
meeting:
Charlejtos, July 20 - The meeting of the
blends and supporters of General Andicw Jackson,
which was postponed on Saturday last, in conse
quence of the receipt of the intelligence of the
death of Mr. Adams, took place yesterday at the
City Hall Notwithstanding the inclemency of
the weather, the assemblage of people was very
nu 111 .Tons and highly respectable. Several oi our
mo-l distinguished ami venerable revolutionary
soldiers attended, whose presence was cheered by
repealed plaudits. The linn. Judge Lee resumed
me chair, and Jacob A.xson, Esq. acted as Serreta- I

successively, unanimously adopted, amidst the
cheers and plaudits of the assemble. The fol- i
lowing are the Preamble and Resolutions as agreed '
t<>:
The friends of ANDREW JACKSON, in and !
near Charleston, S. Carolina, being convinced thst
for the maintenance of Liberty in a Iree State it is
necessary to resist with energy in the beginning
every encroachment on the privileges of the people
considering that the election of their Chief Mag,-'
irate is one of the most important privileges of"the
ciliz, ns of the IT. Stales; that the spiiit of theCon
smut'oi, and a «Jue regard for the common good
require that this privilege should be so exerci-ed
to render the voice ol the people efficient in the
election of he President; and believing that to
counteract live efforts of management or corrup
tion, to exercise this privilege wi'li effect, and
prevent the transfer of the election to the House
ol Representatives, union and concert anion- the
people themselves, are necessary, and that°such
measures as may tend to unite and give effect to
the votes ol the people, are highly expedient and
proper at this time, have assembled at this meet in
to express their sentiments with respect to the next
election, that the same may be known b* their fel
low-citizens throughout the United States, and
submitted to the judgment of the impartial public
1. The, efot e Resolved, as the sense of this meet
ing. That it is highly expedient for the beat inter
ests ol the Republic, that the choice of a President
at the next election, should not devolve on the II.
of Representatives.
2. Resol veil, I list the eminent public services
devotion to his country, and severe republican
principles ol Andrew Jackson, entitle him to the
confidence of his fellow-citizens; and qualify hint
in the highest degree for the office of Chief Ma
gistrate of these United States.
Resolved, .That our confidence in the tried
patriotism and public virtues of this distinguish'd
citizen, is de-ervedly increased by the proof's of his
giearners of mind, as exhibited i:i the iate election
of the President of the U States.
•1. Resolved, That it be, ami the same is hereby
strongly recommended to the friends of Andrew
Jacksou, throughout the United States, to assemble

| of bis merits, in ouler that it may be felt and un
j derstood bv all, that Andrew J.tckron, is the choice
of the people of the great Republic.
5. Resolved, That we highly approve of the

I MOM AS LEE. Ciiair’n.
Jacob Axson, bee ry.
A- the Circui*rvof the Jackson Committee of
Philadelphia is a prominent paper in these Pro
ceedings, we have determined to lay it before our
readers; accompanied by an answer from Mr. Jo
naihan Roberta of Pennsylvania. Mr. K. seems
s rangely enamoured oi Mr. Adams, Mr. Clay,
St Co. He sees nothing censurable in Mr. Clay 's
acceptance of the Iirat office in Mr. A'» gift,
so soon nfitr Mr. C’s making Mr. A. the first ma -
gistraic ol the nation. Mr. It. seems lo be »o
much delighted with Mr. A’e administration, that
a- an evidence of his confidence, he would put
aside Mr. Crawford’s pretensions, to re-elect Mr.
A. Air. it s opposition to (jenera) J.icknon is
one thing: his approbation ol the measures of Air,
Adams is another. And is it possiblo that Mi.
Jona'han Roberts can admire llie administration of
■Mr. Adams? that he can subscribe to his high
toned doctrines; to his contempt for the true prin
i iples of the Constitution; to his usurpations upon
the rights of the States? If these are the mdhsutes
which Air. It. approve*, let him confess at once
tii.it he has ab-uidoned his old Republican princi
ple-; and that lie is willing lo bow iielore the po
litician, whose federal doctrines outstrip those of
Mr. Alexander Hamilton himself.
MR. JEFFERSON'S MEMOIR,
M e understand, that Air. Jefferson ha* left behind
luma .Memoir of a part of hisown Life ft Times; he
commenced it* compo*ilion in the 77ih year of his
age in 1320, and finished it in 1321. It goes back
lo the lime of his grand-father, traces the progress
of hi* o>' n Education, touches upon the causes St
events of the American Revolution, gives a partic
ular account ol the Declaration of Independence ;
pre-sm* many interesting sketches of tho condition
and celebrated character* ol France, while he was
minister in that coun'ry—and terminate# with his
acceptance of the OlTico of ficcvr.ttirtj of Stotf.
lie has also left behind him for publication three
vols. ol Anas, comprising various conversation*
and transactions, in which he was concerned,
while lie was Secretary of State. Besides these,
hu has prepared for tho pres*, 12 or 15 vols. o!
correspondence, labelled with the years in which
they were written. In there M. S. vols, not
bound, but rf itched, he has carefully laid away co
pies of all hi* interesting letters, as taken by the
Polygraph, ft is unnecessary to state, that these
letters are full of interest: they are addressed 'o
v»riou* persons, an.l various subjects ; and
I published, will more fully display that felicity
of style and grandeur ol principles, lor which their
author was so eminently distinguished. Homo of
these letters were prior to the -evolution ; and
trains*, cf tli« Serrea is Lis e/ J.jvjJ IV-/7 to
' (a
' -'tr: ^eigltmsn, written ten days before bis death
This is laid the very last in the vol. for 1S2G
Some of those letters are very long—they discuss
a variety of tho most interesting topics : amon^
the rest we have heard an elaborate letter ol his tc
Col. Monroe, immediately after the capture ol
Washington, spoken of in the highest terms.
He has also left many other M. S. S. among his
papers : with these some Compositions labelled
“ Juvenilities.”
All Ids papers are put up with a neatness and
! regularity, which uniformly distinguished Mr. Jef
ferson.—It is reinaikable, that he had put away,
as among his most select papers, his own Will, a
copy of the hr-t draught ahd alterations of the De
claration of Independence, and some affectionate
memorials of family feeling. These three were ar
ranged together in the same compartment.
As soon as the proper arrangements can be made,
tins .Memoir, these Anas, and most of this co rcs
pondence will l»o laid before his country. Few
men’s papers can be s«» rich in valuable materi
als as those of Mr. Jefferson. His style and his
sentiments contribute to lend an inestimable at
traction to every subject which he handled. Tcti
git nihil quod onutvit.—The Public will wait im
patiently for tlin publication, and the most di-tant
pesteiny will profit by hi- labors. The beauties
of Liberty, the real principles of the constitution;
will be found developed in '.he most impressive
forms.
There lias been no opportunity yet of rec .riling
Mr. Jeuerson’s Will It whs written in March
last ; condensed, expre-sive, simple and elegant.
He Ins left all Ins books to the Univftsitv, ol
which it has not already copies. He lias left to
his illustrious friend James Madison, his beautiful
cane ” of animal horn,” as a memorial of his long
and uninterrupted friendship for one, with whom
he lias been combined in his e.vcr'ions for the good
of mankind. He tins left a few slaves free, making
provision for their future support, and praying ol
tl.e Legislature, as a last favor, (in addition to so
many which he lisa received at their hands,) that
these emancipated slaves might be permitted to re
main within the Commonwealth.
funeral honors.
The Funeral Procession at Winchester was on
the 13th. It was long anil impressive, consisting
ot the Clergy, the civil authorities of the town and
county, members of the Legislature, the Students
of the Academy, the Veteran-, of the Revolution
led by the venerable Capt. Lauck, one of the heroes
ofQuebeckin < i>, the \ ofunteer companies of
Winchester and Newtown, the Masonic Lodges,
Citizens and strangers. The exercises took place
«t the Lutheran Church opened by a prayer iron,
the Rev. A. A. Sowers of the Presbyterian Church,
and followed by an eloquent Oration from Maj.
James M Mason. “ 1'iie venerable Judge White,
who it is known has been laboring for fifteen
months under a most afflicting paralysis, havin '
signified his desire to be present during the excrci
sesin the church, he was conveyed tlnther while
the procession was advancing. On being assisted
along the aisle by William L. Clark, one of the
committee, the sight of the hero of Princeton elec
trified every bosom. They spontaneously arose,
and continued this mark of respect until he was
conducted to a <eat.”
The adjourned meeting of the citizens of Fau
quier have appointed Thomas L Moore E-q. the
Ora'or of the day;-the Eulogium to be delivered 1
on such day as the Executive may recommend to
be set apart generally :or the purpose; but at all
events, by the 2bth iust.
The Funeral Procession took place at Lynch
burg on the 13th. it corresponded with the high
character of the town. The exetcises of the day j
were at the Presbyterian Church opened by the!
Rev. W. S. Keid;& followed by the Rev. Nichn- I
las H. Cobbs, “ who pountayed in terms not less
ju-t than eloquent, the characters and services of
Mi-sms. Jefferson and Adams;” tlm vices ol the
day were closed by the Rev. F. G. Smith.
The citizens of the town of New Glasgow and
its vicinity, met on the 13th; ( Mr. Hill Farter in
the Chair, and Ed want A. Cabell, Secretary;) and
adopted the following resolution: “ Resolved,
That the humble tribute of respect, to the memory
of the ever to be lamented Thomas Jefferson,
testified by us, in our preamble and resolutions of
the l-.ih inst. be extended, so tar as the same is apt
and appropriate, also, to the memory of the lute
amiable Patriot, and benefactor of his country
John Adams.”
The Committee of Shenandoah have appointed
the oilt Augu»t as the day lor paying honors to the
illustrious dead; and it is expected that Mr. Ro
bert Alien w ill deliver the Funeral Oration.
Fayetteville in N. C. has paid the nt .st distin
guished honors to the memories of Jefferson and
Adams. Judge Potter delivered the Eulogium.
The Palmetto Society of Chaileston, S. C. have
passed the most respectful resolutions: they pledge
themselves always to ” keep in reverence the me
mories ot Jefferson anil Adam*, and preserve them
in recollection for posterity.” Their President,
Mr. Lance, makes the following remark in hi*
Address to ’hem:
i he Aiistonann of r*ngland deemed it not un
worthy of record and comment, in the life ol Oliver
Cromwell, that he died on the 11 1 of September, the
ilciyon winch he had gained his greatest battle
against the cause ol royalty and the re:iirn of which
lie hailed as auspicious. The philosophical Hume
writes, that “ on the SJ September, that very day
which he had always considered as the most for
tunate for him, lie expired.”
Monday Iasi the Citizens of Philadelphia had s t
apart lor the day of solemn commemoration. At
l-o clocif, the Oration oi Mr. John Sargeant was
to be deliveied, from a platform which has been
| erected over tbe South door of the Hall of I,idc~
! pendence, •• on the very spot where the Decl n a
| tion of Independence, written by Jeffer-on end ad
vocated by Adains, was proclaimed in 1776,
amidst the shouts of a multitude.”
At a meeting of the JcJ/’erso/i Committee in
the Capitol. July 25, 1826;
Judge Cabell, (in the absence of Gov. Tyler,)
was invited to the Chair.
Mr. Stanard from the Sub-Cmniniltee appointed
on ye«terday, to consider and report ihe most eligi
ble mode of disposing of the funds rai-ed for the
relief of Thomas .leffer«on, in this City and .Man
chester, made (he following Report:
i The Committee appointed by the meeting at
theCapitolon the 5th day of June last, feeling the
' necessity in conncfjuencc of f he rneianchol v ovent of
the death of Thomas Jefferson, of determining what
disposition ought now to be made of the money
subscribed in pursuance of the resolutions of that
meeting, have considered the subject, and arc ol
opinion, that in accordance with (lie spirit and in
furtherance of the ohjeels of that meeting, anil by
virtue of the third resolution which authorised
this committee to appropriate (he money arising
from those subscriptions to the relief of Mr. Jef
ferson, as to them in their discretion should ap
pear best calculated to promote the objects of that
meeting, ihey ought now to appropriate the mo
ney to the purposes of his will in providing for
his surviving daughter and her family.
To the attainment of this object (conse
crated as it has been by the dea:h bed anxie
ties of this illustrious patriot,) the committee
doubt not, that a '.ed equal to that winch produced
the subscription is still feit by ail. But, as it is
I possible that in the change which lias been caused
j by the death of the immediate object of public grati
tude, some who have contributed may not ac
knowledge tbe power oi the committee to act on
the foregoing opinion, ami may tlgnk they have the
fight of reclaiming the sum* contributed, and as
the committee have the. fullest confidence that the
appropriation of the fuhd in the manner beforc
mcndOned, would not bo acceptable to tltofe
to be benefitted by it, unless it were done
with the free and spontaneous approbation of each
ol the contributors, it is the opinion of tiro coin
| mittee, that each subscriber should have the op
portunity of exe* ling his choice, and if he will it,
should have th/ ante subscribed by bun restored
With these presMOns, tbe committe think it
most proper J offer to return bis subscription to
any subscriber, who may think he has a right to
.1 J Y. i$l *.o txtmivt ?£« rig?: U.lt
a impracticable for tire members of the coni
ntittre to wait on each subscriber in person to con
sult him, and as the money is deposited in the
several banks, it is thought advisealde to give no
tice by a publication of this proceeding, that at the
expiration of 10 days, from this day, there will
be deposited at the Farmers’ Bank of Virginia the
amount of his subscription to the credit of any
subscriber, who shall within the 10 days give a
i written notice that he wishes it to be done, left at
the said Bank, or deliver oil to any member of the
committee—and that after the lapse of tlutt period,
the money not reclaimed, will be disposed of in
conformity with the opinion of the committee here
in before expressed.
^dissolved, Therefore, that the Chairman of this
Committee be, and he is hereby authorized, to
check lor the sums that may have been col
lected and deposited, or that tnay hereafter be
collected anil deposited in the several Banks
of tiiis city, under the authority of the meeting
ot the citizens of the 5th of June last, and to ap
propriate the same to the purposes indicated iu the
loregoing preamble.
Iterolveil, also,That the sub-committees proceed,
in ti:e execution of the duties with which they
have been heretofore charge-1, iu obtaining sub
scriptions with the view, that the amount which
may be subscribed and collected shall have the same
destination that the committee proposed to give to
tunds now io possession.
1 he said resolutions were unanimously adopted.
Mr. llitrhie ottered the following resolution:
Unsolved, f i>t»t the Committees, appointed in
the several towns and counties in this State, to
collect subscriptions for the benefit of Thomas Jef
ferson, be earnestly requested to co-operate with
the Committee of this city, in obtaining further
subscriptions “ for the benefit of the child,” whom
tie has bequeathed “ to his country.”— Adapted
uiiiiiiitnuus/y.
Itesolved, That the ptoceedings of this evenin'*,
fie published in all tire newspapers of I lie city.
