At a numerous meeting of too citizens of Cum
berland Cbunty, held at the Courthouse on the 24th
July, IhJb*, for (he commemoration of the deaths
of Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, the Coun
ty Cour' having adjourned in order to afford an
opporttnity for that purpose, Major John Matcher
(a revolutionary soldier) was railed to the chair,
and George H. Matthews, E-q. was appointed Se
cretary: Whereupon Capt. John Miller addre»sed
the meeting in the following words:
.Mr. Chairman—You have heard the funeral
knell that is sounding through our land. Opr il
lustrious fellow-citizens, Jefferson ami the elder
Adams, are no more. These distinguished bene
factors of 'heir country, ar.d of the human race,
" now live only in the memory of their own great
actions, and the hearts of an affectionate and af
flicted people.” On th.it day, flfiy >ears from the
day on which they together signed our Declaration
rf Independence, they breathed their last; on that
day which th<* ptnphetic and patriotic spirit of one
of them had predicted would be celebrated in all
af'er time with ** festivals, guns, bells, bonfires
aad illuminations,” after half a century’s enjoy
ment of the fruits of their labors, end of the “ con
solatory reflection, that their fellow-citizens,” |
from a full experience ot its benefits, •• continued 1
to approve the perilous and doubtful choice they
had to make for their country between submis
sion and the sword,” their pure spirits took their
flight to the eternal wot Id, up bome by the accla
mations of ten millions of freemen, who were, at
that moment, pouring out the tribute of giatitude
for their services—unconscious of their impending
misfoitunc. The loss of such men is, at all times,
just catise of grief to the whole human family; but
especially docs it become the favored country
which ha- given them birth, and to « hose ha^pi
ness, independence and ireedorn, their best exer
tions were devoted, to pay to their memory the
homage of their gratitude, affection and respect. I,
therefore, move you that n committee be appointed
to prepare re-olutions expres-n e of the se se of
this meeting, on the melancholy occasion which
has called us together.

a committee, »\ho roporictl the following preamble
and resolutions, which were unanimously adopted:
When, in the course of Providence, our greatest
benefactors are removed from this orld.^ it is'
manly to weep. Su> h a cause of grief ,c ac
knowledge and deplore in the death- of ottr i!lu
tri. us fellow citizens, Thomas JefP-rson ami J hn
Adams the one the author, the other the ablest
ndvoca'c of our Declaration of Independence; a
composition, which, for elegance ol diction, cor
reciness of sentiment, and the manly spirit of
freedom that breathes in every line, is unrivalled
by any other production in the English language,
nnd deserves to be transmitted to endless genera
tions, in the fairest page of history-* and to “ be
come the signal of arousidg men, throughout the
world, to hurst the chain-, under which, monkish
ignorance and superstition, had persuaded them
to bii d themselves, and to assume the blessin-s
and security of self government.” Were this she
only monument to their fame.it would be suffi
cient to immortalize their names. Dut not so:
Throughout the perilous and stormy conflict of the
revolution, they were among its first and most effi
cient advocates; and contributed as much, by their
bold, fearless, and decisive councils, to it* happy
result, as any o( their compatriots did or could —
except the man who h is been universally admit-1
ted, at all time-, and under all circumstances, to j
bo “ lirst in war, lirst in peace, and first in ’the'
heart- of his Countrymen,” the beloved, the im '
mortal Washington, the father of his country.—
The unexampled period f sixty-one year- of the
life of our venerated Jeffcison, was employe I in the
most arduous, important, and responsible public
duties, involving the good of his native state, of
ltis country, and of mankind; which he discharge 11
with a ze-1 and ardor which no difficulties could
abate, an ability, which the weight of y ears could |
net impair, and a devotion to the great rights of
man, that the near approach of death itself could
not extinguish, but it is not our purpose to re
cite the history ol these sag*- ol the revolution, r
their eulogy. And it would be unnecessary_they
are already wri ten in the hearts ol their country- !
men. • J
We rather recur to the memorable and glorious
circumstances attending their deaths. On the'
Jubilee Anniversary o; that great day on which .
they together signed, they together hallowed by ■
their death and parting benedictions, tt:e sacred '
instrument that gave btrtlt to a nation. It was j
the very day on which it was the express wish 1
of one of them (and doubtless it was the fervent*
aspiration of the other,) that he might be permuted J
to depart, and repose in the bosom of his father I
ar.tl his God. How solemn and affecting this »?-'
cond and last appeal, on the verge t f the grave,!
“ t0 ,he Supreme Judge of the world for the rec
titude of those indentions;” with which, in the
dawn of their lives, they, with the host of worthies
who joined them in (he deed, declared those st .tes
4* free and independent;” and for the -upport ol
that declaration, 44 with a firm reliance on divine
Providence for protection, mutually pledged to :
eaeh other their lives, their fortunes, & iheir°sacred
honor!” We mean no impiety, when we say,
that God, by these special acts of his Providence] |
seems to have set to his seal that their work was !
Rood, and to have confirmed the important truths •
which they so gloriously asserted and illustrated, !
both in life and in deatlt. Solemnly and awfully 1
impressed with Ihe-e feelings and sentiments:!
Therefore
Resolved, unanimously, That th< members of*
this meeting will wear crape on the left arm fori
thirty days, as a testimony of gratitude lor the
services, of sympathy for the death, and respect for
the memory, of out illustrious benefactors, Tho
mas Jefferson and John Adam*.
Resolved, As a further testimonial of the esti
mation in which we hold the character andservi-,
ces of Thomas Jefferson, the favourite son of Vir-:
gmta, that the delegates of this county^be instructed j
to vote for the erection of some durable memorial '
at the Scat of Government, to perpetuate his me
mory and illustrate his public worth.
Resolved, That tlie foregoing proceedings be
published in the Richmond papers.

We, the citizens of Bent Creek and its neigh

Jefferson, the Philanthropist, the Statesman, the
PiMlosophar, the Writer of tho Declaration of In
dependence, and John Adams, who with his co
worker and compatriot, Jefferson, acted in drawing
*n«! warmly supporting tht* of Inde
pendence: —but whilst they deeply lament the
mortality of their liodie*1, they conceive resigna
tion and gratitude to the will eff Heaven, a virtue
that should be cherished in the bosom of every
; ersou enjoying the choicest blessings of GoJ, to
the United States, in the gift of a Jefferson and
Adams, inspired as they conceive with the purest
principles and clearest light on the natural and in
herent rights of man, who were mainly instrumen
tal in the formarion of that go* ernment, that Free
men delight jn, and Tyrants abhor; *• ho were kind
ly permitted to remain, cultivate and in:. .ie the
same with the benedictions of wt-dotn and
experience, annually demonstrating the strength
ot tiie pillars, and the beauty and security ol
the edifice, for fifty years: when in obedience to
the special invitation of Heaven, on the day «f
their country’s Jubilee; on the day when the heart
ol every patriot throbbed high with emotions of
joy, they as it were, hand in baud, bade adieu to
ten millions of their legatees, and gently glided
into the mansions ol re*t.
Resolved Therefore, As a testimony of respect,
to t;.e memory of the deceased, that wc will wear

At a respectable meeting of the citizens of 'he
count) o! Halifax, at the courthouse, on the; 19.1. J
day of July, in the year 1S29, for the purpose o
expressing their sincere sorrow :ii the piovidentisl
di-pensatton, which has deprived them of then
revered and illustrious fellow citizens Thomas
Jefferson and John Adams, William Bi
Bank was appointed chairman ot he meeting '
anti l'lioinas H. Avereti Secreiary. On motion,
i* was resolved, that Edward C. (Jairington, (Gran

of the feelings and sentiments of this meeting on
lf.e subject ; and that the committee do j rep,re a
preamble and resolution* to be submitted to an au
jccjrned meeting this Evening at -1 o'clock.
The conimiitee 10 whom the su ject mentioned
in the foregoing resolution was Tettrred, made the
following Report, whicii was unanimously adopt
ed :
The people of the county f Halifax have heard i
with the most profound sorrow and regiet, of the
Providential dispensation which has iieprived them
of two of iheir most illustrious fellow ciuzens, pa
(riots and siairsmen, Thomas Jefferson and John
Adam«, both of them signer* oi tlie Declaration
of Independence—boih of them cotempnraries.
compatriots, and fellow labourers in support ot the
glorious cause, which terminated in the Indepen
dence and Freedom of the United Slades. On ihi
occasion we cannot express die extent ot our giief,
or testily by language, the profound respect and '
veneration we feel lor those men, who weieamong
the most active and intrepid defenders of the rights
or their country — who signed the nis'nimcnl which
has consecrated their name*, and will transmit
their fame to the most distant po*teriiv, a*th9 Ben
efactors of iheir country, the votaries of Liberty,
and the Friends of mankind. Between these two
men we deem it improper to make invidious com
parisons, by contrasimg their talents, their virtues,
their principles, iheir speculative opinions, or their
services ; they have both given the most unequi
vocal proofs of iheir devoton to the interest*, the
happiness, ami the freedom of llien country ; they t
both have rendered the most signal set vice* ; liotli !
have received tne highest testimonials of the co'di i
dence, affection and gratitude of their fellow t-iti I
zens. Wc do not intend to write the Biography !
of these illustrious men ; or to erect monuments
to their memories—The history of such tnen wi:l
be read in the eyes of an afflicted nation ; their
highest U mo«t impressive Eilogiurn will he the
pen of the impartial Historian, who will(h?nd down
to posterity a faithful naralive of the magnificent &
glorious events, in which they bore a noble and
conspicuous part. To e .uoierste the r service*,
would be to write a history of the Republic ; to
attempt to estimate them, would be to set a value
on the inestimable privileges nhich are secured lo
us by those invaluable Institutions which »r« the
guarantees of our property, our live*, and the
greatest of all human blessing*—ovr Liberty
It seem* to be a very peculiar, if not a miraru
tons dispensation, that 'he*e illustrious men, should
have closed their mortal career on the axr.. rrsary
of our Independence ; on the same day which
they signed the sacied instrument, which has giv
en independence and frecdomjo their country, ant)
has secured immortality to iheir name*. If the
•1th of July has heretofore been regarded a* form
ing an important epoch in the annals of the world,
in all future times. It will be regarded with still
greater reverence and respect by iho recollection
of its being the day on which two of the iirst and
greatest of our Revolutionary Patriots hare closed
• heir mortal existence covered with honour, with
fame, ami the affectionate regards of a free, vir
tuous and enligh'eiicd people. We consider it
e3pcci»"y Cue to Mr. JsITeraon, as a netive oi Vjr
I G,,,ia» that in death, \n* native state has
sustained an irreparable loss which she feels with
the keenest sensibility ; the arts anti sciences have
been deprived of (heir most enlightened patron
and protector ; the cause of Freedom, of an in
trepid advocate and defender, and society of its
b ighte-t and mo*t polished ornament.
f1" "av utore of such men, whose history is in—
d«-nlifted with the freedom of their country and
the glorious events of the 'Revolution, and whose
memory is embalmed in the hearts of their giateful
anti affectionate countrymen, would be idle and su
perfluous :
Resolved therefore, That as a testimonial of the
respect and reverence which we feel for the char- I
acters ol 1 homas Jefferson and John Adams, we
will wear a badge of mourning on the left r*rm for
the space of thirty days.
Resolved, That the Rev. Philemon Ilart, and
the Rev. Stephen Taylor be requested to deliver
funeral Orations at Halifax courthouse, on the 5<h
Sunday in this month, on the deaths of Thomas
Jeffers- n and John Adams, former PresiUentsof the
L’. States.
Re-olved, That the Editors of the Enquirer Si
Whig be requested to publish in their respective
papers the foregoing pieanthle and resolutions.

Shenandoah, lh’th July, 1S2G.
Messrs. Editors.
In the Enquirer of-the 4th Current, I find (under
the head of “ A Valuable Discovery,”) n para
graph relative to a particular method of ruling
* lover, namely, by mixing layers of straw with it.
H .mg e.vperie ced • he good effects of this method,
in r« p> ;it«-d trial-, I am induced to un nii<>» the
more minute circumstances in f_my) pursuit of the
method, and which are omitted in the paragraph
alluded to. Such o’ my Clover as is cut before
midday, I have hauled to the barn in the evening,—
a layer, of convenient thickness, is spread over
the Mow, which layer i« well spr nkled with s.dt,
(vay at the rate of a bushel per ton,) over this, is
I,,en sPrei(* * layer o! short (wheat) straw, of
about the same thickness of tho Clover, then .mo
ther of Clover, saltcil as before, nad proceed thus
until nty t lover is packed away.
My reasons for preferring short ichent straie
nre,tha' wheat i* either trodden out by horses, or
got out by n threshing machine, cither of which
methods make tin straw short (with the exrep
t:on of a newly invented machine) and short straw,
(which is also tangled) cannot be so soon, or
ea»ilv pressed so close, as to obstruct a free passage
of air between the layers of Clover, as could the \
st>avr of rye, w inch M generally threshed by hand,:
and the straw tied up {straight) in bundles to cut i
lor horse"*. Second crop Hay preserved in this
way, communicates n considerable portion of its
fl.vour to the straw, so that cattle and horses
Z'-ncra!'// eat the straw as well as they do the hay.
1 in; salt, not only tends to pteserve the hay, but
makes it much better, ut the san c time pieventing
it from having the effect of maki g horses slobber,
as second crop clover. (I always lottnd.) would do
without being salted. Four's respectfully,
A FARMER.
DINNER TO MR. CLAY.
i "l lie friend'i of Air. Clay in Lexington have no t
lost the opportunity of expressing their “undimin
ishe l, nay, increasing confidence, in (his) talents,
integrity, and untiring devotion to the public
weal.’ On the 15ih July, *• between 170 and
-00 citizens of the town and neighborhood sat I
down with Air. Ciay io a sumptuous dinner” to .
which he had been invited In ms acceptance of
the invitation, lie observed to the Committee:
‘•I Ins indeed been always my aim, as you truly
state, to be on the side of civil and political liber
ty, human happiness aud improvement. And to
tuOse great ami interesting objects shall my humble
but z Motts endeavors continue to be directed,
whatever misrepresentations of my motives and
conduct may be made by those who choose to
think unfavorably of the one or the other ”
I’lie spirit of the Toasts was such as mi*’ht
have been expected. As Mr. Adams has grown
into wonderlul favor with Mr. C”s friends, since
he became the Secretary of S ate, he was toasted
>s follows:
Hie President of the United States—Learn
ed, liberal, wise and patriotic. The shafts of en
vy and detraction, tali harmle** at hi* feet.
Time was, when the friends of Mr. C. and he
himself, held rather a different language. The ad
ministration too in the aggregate comes in for a
eulngy:
the Administration—Let its enemies tell its
offences. It has recommended a mission for the
promotion of Repttblic:>i£l%uiiciple«; it has advised
the encouingenient of science and literature, ol in
ternal impiovement* and home manufactures._I
Ala*! how criinin I!!!
Whether it be “criminal” for Kentucky to
depart from her own principles in ’!)3, and to pro
mote certain ends by means of usurpation on the
Constitution itself, “ tin* deponent saith not.”
The following toast evas given:
Our Guest—the lion, lieury day—Could he
he more endeared, admired and con tided in, L>s
persecutors and slanderers have given him that
claim on u*.
When this toast was announced, Mr. C. arose
“ and expressed his grateful thanks to the romp ,r.
tor this testimony of their c intinif . contiueuce
and esteem. He ailvsrtw very brielly and elo
quently, though in geneial term*, to the topics al- :
lu ed to in several of the sentiments previously an- I
notmeed, and in the cour*e of his remarks paid a j
tribute to the memory of Mr. Jefferson, the mel
ancholy intelligence of whose death he had just
learnt. Mr. Clay concluded by proposing a* a toast,
—“ The three Counties of tilt* Congressional Lis
trict, Fayette, Woodford and ( lark.”
The following toasts were also given:
l’lie Hon. John C. Calhoun -“He advised;
heat not u furnace for your foe so hot that it do 1
singe yourself.”
Tho Constitution menders- Holding tip their 1
farthing candle* to show spots on the Sun.
Hy Joseph I. Lemon— The Clay of the West-.
A good tnanute lor the soil ol the East, Fre
quently tried and seldom found wanting.
As a set-olTto the late Meeting of the Fiiends of
Gen. ’ackson at Charleston, a Meeting has been
Called of' the Friends of the Administration, to
take into consideration *uch Constitutional Mea
sures >n support of the Administration as they
may deem expedient.”
A Rhode Island ministerial paper proposes a* a
measure to strengthen the Administration of Air.
Adams that, “ no man should be elected Senator
who would not sign a bond, (he penalty which
would follow a breach ol which should lie some1 hing
more than a pound of fle*|{”—to suppott
that administration.” 'v
Mr. Robbins, one of the U. 8. Senators from 1
K. Island, being toasted on the 4lii of July, as a
" hrtn and able *upp<>rter ol the Administration” —
took occasion to express his high confidence in the
present Executive as •• every way worthy of the
important iru*t; every way suitable to the high
calling ol these high destinies” -he also asserted^
“ the existence of an organized opposition,powerful
in numbers, powerful in talents, determined in
pursuit; against whom your government is to be
sustained. “ Let it be lecollected (said he) that
I the country is divided into patties, rccen’ly arrang
ed in rival contests, heated by contention, and two
of them, at least their leaders, iiritated not to *»y
infuriated by defeat. Let this be recollected, and
■ it will not perhaps seem strange, that an opposition
should arise to the administration of ihe successful
j candidate,” fce. William If. Crawford •• irritated
i not to say infuriated by defeat”! Has Ml. Robbins
j a soul capable of conceiving the sentiments of
W. II. C? This Senator would forsooth, probably,
take from his colleague the bond ol Hhylork.
The Electors of the llth Ward of the cily of N.
Y. have adopted resolutions nominating Candidates
for President and V. P. of the U. 8.—Gen. Jack
son ta their favorite: and the N. Y. Coin. Adv.
object# to the nomination, becauae it is premature,
and because :t is •* at st ar with the intereete of
New Y oik.** The editor warns New York not
*• again to compromise her interests, and destroy
her importance, by deserting her natural friends,
; ami throwing herself headlong into an nllianrc
I with Si.'tes which will forever march shoulder to
j shoulder in opposition to the interests and influence
| of the North; • he free states. It is well kno>< n
whom *v* »vj,h to succeed Mr. Adams. But he j
cannot succeed him at t!,o nex1 presidential election
General Jackson is in the field, ai d will not retire
troin it. the battle therefore, ».hen it comes,
must he fought between the “ military chieftain” |
and .Mr. Adams.”
We repeat again what we have said on a late
occasion.^ It is alike the interest and the duty
of New York, to go hand in hand with the clus
ters of free states on her right and her left. The
administraiion lhus lar merits our confidence and
support. Let it receive that support. J.et New
York and the E- stern ami Western States present a
bold front, bearing in mind the nations! motto of
“ united we stand, divided we fall,"’ anil six
year* hence the presidential chair will be filled
by the favorite son of New Y'ork.”
? It is in.possible for ns to guess whether Mr.
C linton will follow this advice (a recent paragraph
in a N. Y paper, on the contrary, threw out the
idea, that he wa«- not to be opposed a* Governor,
and that he would on his part support Gen. Jack
son)—but it is certain, that tills advice rather clash
es with the views of Air. Clay. He is looking
forward, at the end of the six yeais.to the effect ot
the *• safe precedent” in his own person— to the
| union of the “ Eastern and Ff'ct’e/n Stales” -
and to the influence of the san e good old maxim
upon his own destinies : •• United we stand, L»i
vided tve fali.”

-5 THIRD Finn IjY petfrssurc ! {
O . '■is,nr town ol Petersburg has been ettiiuenilv
unfortunate. Since the T>th inst. she has been 3
"!»» the prey of tire—On Saturday night last, a
\ ivid light was seen by one or two persons of this
city in that direction ; and it was immediately pro
pounced to be a new tire :n Petersburg. The con
jecture wa-too true. The fire is said to have
commenced in a wooden building on B.mdV Allot,
running from Bank to Old Street, and to have con
sumed some 15 or 20 building?, generally of small
value.
GREAT LOSS TO THE PEOPLE
'V* lament to learn from the following paragraph,
the destruction of one of the t to beautiful Bridg
es,which have heen erected on the State Rond from
Covington on James river to the Ki.ll- of the Ka
nswha. This bridge l.a- been called “ the pride
nl VI estern \ irgini.r” I* crossed ,he Gaul-y river
just above its junction with the Kanawha; 571 feet J
long, built of wood, entirely roofed over and sup
ported by two stone pieces of admirable workman- |
slup. The other bridge on the same road is built I
hy the same man on a similar plan, for the same j
price, and crosses the Greenbrier river •
GAULYf BRIDGE BURNT.
“ We understand by a gentleman direct from I
Lewi-burg, that the elegant Bridge acm-s Gatiley
River, has brten burnt down; and no doubt is en- !
tertained that it is the work of an incendiary; two
men it is said, were suspected and have been ar- i
re-led. one of whom owned a ferry near the bridge; i
the other owned the land on which one end of the !
bridge was abutted, and had perhaps been heard to
make some threats, In consequence cf his dissatis
faction at the damage- allowed for his land, con
demned for the bridge. Thus this elegant piece ot
workmanship, which cost the state $18,000 has
been sacrificed by evil disposed persons;. nJ we ap
prehend,through the culpable neglect of those whose
iuiy it was to attend to it. The Legislature pass, d
a law at its last session, for erecting a toll gst» and
loll house at the Bridge, had the duty under this
law been promptly attended to, considerable ex

The following extract of a letter from a gentle
man in Kentucky, to his friend in Philadelphia,
confirms the account of De-!n having cut his ^
throat, and adds intelligence cf his death? I
“ Hut you will ask me where is the ruthless!
villain that prostrated poor Baker? Ii he feasting !
on ice creams, mince pies, ?vr &c. I know not
bat answer to make you, b it o.ie thing is veiy '
ce.tnin. —that he has cut his throat from ear t
ear. His windpipe is cm en'ire]? ii wo j :ere
and yesterday, immediately •/ -r h- committed the
act, the s „e . f ,i;e town reived it up: but at
sundow:, lie was near smothering when they again
opened it, and the news has just come in that he
is dead. Of tlie authenticity of th" statement, I
have no doubt. After tlie -urgerm had entered the
Jail, when he was first discovered, he observed to
Desha that his moments were but few, and the
hetter way would be to make a confession. Dasha
pointed to a piece of paper b?*pinkled with blood,
'*pnn which was written, •• LYNCH ENT OF
THE CHARGES ALLEGED AGAINST
ME " The surgeon requested him to affix to it
iiis signature, which he did. This is the current
report here to day, and I have no best at ion in
believing it true, with the exception of that part
which relates to bis confession. It would require
stronger proof than the words even of a doin '
man, to make me believe that any other perso?r
than Isaac R. Desha murdered Francis Raker.”
The *»a?p prisoner, I H. Desha, who nltetnp'et!
a week agoto commit suicide by cutting his throat,
was not dead on Satuidayr, when we )*„{ ||>*aid

Gov. Tyler's eulogy on Air. Ji rrrnso.v. de
livered on the 11th instant, at Richmond, rheonpi
tal of Virginia, is a proud specimen of • uttiment
and eloquence. It is short, and was prepared on
short notice—But it is comprehensive in facts, nn I
rich and glowing in “lylc. It was really a fefici-!
tons effort. It is said li e effect was deep and j
powerful. We have not spice even for an ex- j
tract, that would do it justice. We presume a I j
the eulogies on this rate occasion will be preserved j
and published. [Button Gas.
