FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 7, 1834.
REPUBLICAN DOCTRINES.
The adverse factions of the present day have
3ch and all, we believe, denominated them
lelves, par excellence, the “ Republican party.”
r et a definition be asked of this Republicanism,
mvever, and the various answers to the ques
tion will show that no one of them agrees with
other,—and, hence, that the mere name is
ulopted without any reference to principles.
One party proves that the essence of Republi
canism is devotion to Jackson: the nullifier tells
vou that he only is a Republican who supports
his doctrine, &c. &c.
When the South Carolina disturbance divid
ej the nation, we took occasion, at an early
jay. to state our views on that question, as well
as on secession, &c., by quoting and adopting
the opinions of Mr. Madison, as expressed in
his letter to Mr. Everett. Those opinions, thus
cuoted and adopted, we desire to be consider
ed our own creed and doctrine with regard to
those matters.
We desire now, also, to state our opinions as
what are now’ Republican doctrines, and
wh0 are now Republicans;—and this we do in
the language of Mr. Janney, one of the dele
crates from Loudoun, in his recent speech on the
nomination of Mr. Leigh to the Senate.
Mr Tanney said:
nWe have been amused with a discussion as
which of the two candidates was the better
Republican; but this is a controvcry which ne
ver can be settled, until we can agree upon
'ome common standard by which to try the le
gitimacy of their titles. The member from
City (Mr. Jones) claims to be a Republican,
and maintains that the States retain undiminish
ed their entire original sovereignty, and that
his is the only true Republican doctrine. The
centleman from Isle of Wight (Mr. Holleman)
considers the President of the United States a
genuine Republican, and seems to think a sup
port of his measures the best test of the true
faith; while I, on my part, also claim to be a
Republican, and yet differ from both. The
ventieman from Isle of Wight, who is an ardent
supporter of the present Administration, might,
one would suppose, be perfectly satisfied with
either of the candidates, on the score of their
political orthodoxy, when we see that Louis
McLane and Roger B. Taney have been admit
ted into full membership and placed at the head
of the communion table. The theories of the
oresent day are too fluctuating and fleeting to
be relied upon. I want a practical test, and in
this case I can find it. Ours was intended to be
in practice, what it is in theory, a government of
laics, emanating from the people; but now we
behold our destinies bound up in the will of one
man, and the enterprize and the energy of a
free people, palsied by one of their public ser
vants. That man is, in my judgment, the best
Republican who, whatever may have been his
former party designation, is now most willing
to devote himself to the service of his country,
and to rescue her valued institutions from the
perils which surround them.”
This is our doctrine. We want no better
* evidence of Republicanism.
We are sorry to say, that yesterday’s North
ern mail brought accounts of more failures and
increased distress.
A great Jackson meeting was held in Phila
delphia on the 4th instant, at which Mr. G. M.
Dallas presided. Strong resolutions in favor
of the President’s course were passed. Mr.
Rush was one of the speakers. The Pennsylva
nian savs fifteen thousand persons were present.
From the N. Y. Journal of Commerce
LARGE FIRE AT BROOKLYN.
About half past 12 o’clock this morning, a fire
broke out in or near Lohosc & Van Nostra lid’s
Tannery, Water street, Brooklyn, a few rods
from Fulton Ferry, and the wind being fresh
from the north west, the flames were not arrest
ed till the greater part of the block bounded by
Water, Dock, Front, and Fulton streets, were
level witn tne ground.
On Water street, commencing from Schenck’s
stables, not inclusive, every building on the south
west side of the street to Dock street, except a ]
brick building belonging to Alexander Birkbeck,
iron founder, was destroyed.
On Dock street, five dwelling houses, occupied
by families.
On Front street,—the building occupied by the
Brooklyn Fire Insurance Company, and above j
as a dwelling by Peter Walters; nearly destroy
ed. Books and papers saved. Value of the
building about $4000. The Brooklyn Bank, j
next adjoining, was very much exposed, but es- j
caped without material damage, as likewise the 1
Long Island Bank next beyond the Brooklyn
Bunk. Several buildings both on Front and
Fulton streets were more or less injured, but not
sufficiently so to make it worth while to mention
'nem in detail.
Aii the buildings in the interior of the block ,
uere destroyed, including out-houses, stables, j
md other buildings, the most valuable of which I
JjeLeve, was the drug warehouse of Dr. J.
w- Smith.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman at Prairie j
du Chien, Upper Mississippi, Feb. 1.
I wrote to- from Mineral Point, since
y nich 1 have heard that the Sacs and Foxes
^ave killed 16 Winnebagoes, and my friend and
gossip Whirling Thunder is about to come down

p. ^IS back. He swears lie will exterminate ;
yack Hawk’s band. The lighting, if any takes ,
P ace, will be far in the rear of me. 1 may see
of the fun, how’ever, when I return.

APPOINTMENT BY THE PRESIDENT,
By and with the advice and consent of the Se
nate.
Alexander Honter, of Alexandria County, to
be Marshal of the District of Columbia, vice
Henry Ashton, deceased.
[It gives us sincere pleasure to make th e
above announcement. The appointment wil*
meet with general approbation. The incum
bent has all the qualifies requisite to make an
1 able, firm, efficient, honorable public officer.
; The Senate confirmed his nomination unani
mously, and the people will ratify the choice,
without distinction of party.]
CONGRESS.
The Senate was nearly all day yesterday en
gaged in Executive business.
In the House of Representatives the discussion
was continued on the bill relating to Revolution
ary Pensions.
OBITUARY.
Death of the Governor of Kentucky.
The Legislature of Kentucky concluded its
session with the melancholy office of attending
the funeral obsequies of His Excellency John
Breathitt, Governor of the State. We have re
ceived a paper containing the ceremonial di
rected by the General Assembly, to pay its last
honors to the excellent and amiable man, who
was so endeared, by his public and private vir
tues, to his fellow-citizens. He lived through all
the bitter party strifes of Kentucky, and we firm
ly believe he died without an enemy.— Globe.
When we are awakened from our dreams of
minic life, so vividly portrayed by histrionic
skill, to the fatal realities of life, the blow falls
with double severity. Such was the effect on
Monday evening, when on the falling of the
curtain at the Arch street theatre, after the first
piece—Mr. Thayer stepped forward, announced
the sudden death of Mr. William Forrest, the
Manager, and requested the indulgent sympathy
of the audience, for the postponement of the
remaining entertainments. A shock so sudden
and so appalling, it has seldom been our lot to
record. Engaged in his duties all the morning,
it appeared but a moment before he had been
among us, in the full enjoyment of health, when
the hand of the unsparing destroyer struck him
down.
Mr. Forrest was a great and general favorite
among his associates, to whom he was endeared,
by every feeling of kindness and affection.—
Few possessed a more placid or even disposi
tion, and few won friend so fast and firmly. In
his private relations he was equally estimable,
and his bereavement as a son and brother, will
be long and severely felt.— U. S. Gaz.
Mr. William Forrest was, we believe, the bro
ther of Edwin Forrest, the distinguished Tra
gedian.—AIp.v. Gaz.
