Thompson said was a sign that the world was agoing for to come to anend. The occasional cluster of Irishmen, jog- ging up town “for a bit of a walk, jist,” stopped.to ascertain if it wasn’t a “Repale” meeting, and be- gan to damn Dan O’Connell as a trimmer and a fool of an Abolitionist—while some of our Methodist friends thought it was Mr. Brown, the Home Mis- sionary, dispensing the bread’ of life to the flock in that. dark corner of the Lord’s vineyard. But Brother Brown, meantime, was at the ‘market place doing yeoman’s service against the bulwark’s of the ‘ world, the flesh and the devil.” All speculation, however, was cut short by the con- gregation at the commer breaking out into a song as aforesaid. Hard looking men, and hard looking ieee to all appearance belonging to those noctur- nal gangs of rowdies, so inimical to the peace of the city, were there, and kept dropping in, until quite a meeting was congregated to hear the doom and sentence of King Aleohol. 2 After several inspiring cold water songs, Presi- dent Savage, the indomitable Cuptain of the F. V, T. A. S., elevated on a store box, with his back against the deserted old shantie, stated the object of the meeting, the object of the society, and the object of his spgech. We give from recollection an outline of his discourse, from the time of our arrival on the ground. Parsipent Savace.—‘ Yes, gentlemen; we have o right to do it; we are American citizens, and, as such, it is our might to speak out, and to speak out boldly our sentiments on this subject. And I’m in the habit of speak- ing out that way. Our fathers shed their bloed forthis right, and we are not going to give it up. ‘The rum-sel- Jers don’t like it, 1 know, and you know that very well; but what can’t be cured, will veto be endured. ‘The may get upa meeting to advocate the selling and swil- ling of rum, if they choose, and nobody will hinder them; but they are not going to scare us by their threats from telling the truth in the broad daylight. ‘The selling of rum is the great evil against which we have set our faces, and we mean to fight out the battle while there i- arum shop in the capitol, or in the avenue, or in the na- tion. We have nailed our flag to the mast, and we in- tend to fight it out. But these rum-sellers don’t like it, and we can’t help it; they are no better than pirates iu principle; they prey upon the very heart’s blood of the oor drunkard, and the bread of his family, and they get rane} vampyres, fromaucking the blood of weak and fel men. That's the sort of customers your rum- sellers are. They neither regard the laws of God no: of the corporation—for the corporation laws prohibit rum-selling on Sunday, and yet over there (pointing to Coleman’s,) and over there (pointing to Brown’s,) you may get your rum, in the back bar-room. They sed to have their bar-rooms in front, but we've made ‘em move ‘em back—over there you ma: Sunday. (Voice from a fat man marked with the smal) pox—* hit em again right and left.” Another voice— * Stop and let the man speak, will you.”) Yes, gentle- men—we want these people to hear littie of our talk, and I’m glad to see that they're listening. it will do ‘em good—we want to do’em good. We want to stop this Tum-selling, and this rum-selling to genteel young mea on the Lord’s day, for if you meet a young man on Sunday with a clove in his mouth, he is just from the back bar of one of these fashionable hotels. That’s the way they doit. They have cloves to take away the smell ; but that wont take away the reproach. We must stop the business, if we want to take that away—stop it entirely. Nothing but a baptism in cold water, and the cold water pledge will doit. Suppose we take a look at the ten commandments, and see how they will apply te the rum-sellers—these men who deal out poison by the fip’s worth, and smile as if they were not guilty ef mur- der, What does the first commandment say : “ Thou shalt have no other Gods before me.” How will that apply to the rum-sellers? They have another God, and it is the God of Alcohol that they wo: ship. And we may say the same of their graven images; for they have them in the bar, and around the bar, and the young men go there to worship instead of going to Church, 3. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.” Listen ye rum-sellers over the way (looking at Cole- man’s) to that commandment. They dont take the name of God in vain. Ohno! Go into that back bar, where you see those green curtains, and you will hear whe- ther they do or not. Why itis the very essence of ram- sucking—it will make a preacher swear—it promotes awearing, as every body knows, and even boys learn to swear with a julap at their lips. 4. ' Remember the Sabbath day, (o keep it holy.” Do they remember the Sabbath—these rum-sellers 7 You may see them going to church (looking. Avenue toward the United States Hotel—the jetors of which belong or attend regularly the episcopal Church.) Yes, you may see them Boing to church, with their gitt-edged prayer books, and readin, over the responses, a good, Christians; ‘but they se rum on Sunday, and [ want to know if that is keeping the Sabbath day holy ! 9. Honor thy father and thy mother.” Does rum-selling on Sunday look like honoring thy mother? Is rum-drinking likely to make a young man honor his father and his mother? No, no: you know better, It brings the grey hairs of many parents in sorrow down to the grave, and we have seen the curse that it brings into ‘he family where it has habit, too often, to be'ieve tnat selling rum on or drinking it, will make a man honor his get your rum ona 5 "hon shalt not ke Come out, ye rum-sellers, and answer the murders for which ye indicted at the bar of God.

What is ell this but temptation? And it was so day in and day out, and night in and night out. Yes, many a poor fellow has been led into temptation by such devices. . The eloquent orator continued for some time longer in his scathing denunciations of the rum sellers; when he called upon the company who had not sign- ed, to walk up and sign the poe of tetotaliem. Rev. Frencu S. Evans, once an itinerant Met dist preacher, but for a number of years, since married a relative of Maj. Eaton, a clerk in the Treasury Department, where he has grown as fat and comfortable as an alderman, next addressed the meeting in a stirring appeal upon all men to aba don this body-killing, heaven-defying, soul-damning habit of drinking rum. I Judge Wiuiiams, of Iowa, aman of genius, and a great speaker in this great cause, begged off with an invitation to sign the pledge. — Maj. Harkess, one of our citizens, next spoke; after which the meeting adjourned till next Sunday, when they propose to meet near the United States Hotel, Jenkins’ Metropolis House, Fitzgerald’s, and several minor eathulieratienta in the immediete neighborhood ; on which occasion another end rate vigorous onslaught will be made upon the rum sellers. Mr. Savage, the speaker whose remarks we have attempted to follow, we doubt not will endorse eve- y word that we have here placed to his account, though much of the pith of his discourse is neces- sarily omitted. Mr. S.is a reformed rum seller, and we think he ought to have a little more charit than he exhibits to men of the business in whic! he realised much if not most of his property. But if he is satisfied with his own course, we have ne complaint to make. He does not tramp upon our corns. Such meetings as this, of which we have given the merest outline, have been hrld regularly once or twice, or oftener, every week in this city, for several years ee Much good has beendone in consequence, for many loafers have been conve! into decent men; but still the ranks of John Bar- leycorn are filling with new recruits. Our tempe- rance men must stir themselves, or King Alcohol will take the city, body and soul. Ww. The Last Da; of General Jackson. ville Union, June 21.] If the earthly career of Gen. Jackson had terminated with the expiration of his Presidential service, his fame as a Patriot, Soldier and Statesman would have lived through all time. There would, however, have been one defect in his character, which the friends of christi- anity might well have lamented—over all his noble vir- tues there would have been absent the chaste: beautifying and sanctifying influence of Christian piety. But now it is matter of heart-felt gratification with eve Christian and patriot to know, that whilst hie name will be a tower of strength to the lovers of liberty through all future time, it will also be a bright beacon-li t, By which the teachers of christianity can illus ‘the truth of their religion. If the cause of patriotism and liberty triumphed in his life, the cause of christianity triumphed in his death. ‘3 are engaged in eulogizing the noble deeds of the illastrions deceased as a soldier and st man, we propose to finish off the picture with sloring, butwsore beautiful col of those si nd unobtrusive Christian virtues which gilded the evenii of his life. Wor the details which we ord embracing the last two weeks of the eventful life of Gen. Jackson, we are indebted to the kindness of his affection- ate son, who has furnished them at our request. ‘On the Sabbath day, two weeks before his death, there was a communion of the Lord’s Supper in the Hermitage Church. Gen. Jackson was unusually serious and so- lemn in his feelings during the morning, and tted exceedingly that he was unable to accompany his fami- ly tochurch, He requested his daughter, Mrs. Jackson, to bring home with her the Rev. Mr. Lapsley, as he was anxious once more to partake of the sacred feast. As they were leavitig for the church he took each member of the family by the hand,and invoked upen them all the blessings of God. After their return from church, the whole family, with the Rev. Mr. Lapale rey, assembled in his room ; he wi versed freely on religious topics. signed, and said he was ready to go when vine Master thought fit to call him ; that feet deal of bodily pain, but the Lord’ He then partook of the Holy communion ; it was a so lemn scene, and rendered still more so by the confidence with which he referred to it as the last’ time he should enjoy the happy privileg je spoke of his death as near at hand, but said that death had no terrors for him, come when ho might. “ When I heve suffered sufficient. ly, said he, the Lord will then take me. to himself; what are all my sufferings compared to those. of th blessed Saviour, who died on the accursed tree for m mine are nothing.” Not murmur ever escaped him ; he spent much of his time during the latter days of him life in secret prayer. On the Thursday evening previous to his death he re- ferred to the blessed promises in the hymn, from which he repeated :~ “ When through the deep waters I call thee to go, ‘The rivers of wo shall not thee overthrow.” He quoted many passages of scripture, and conversed feelingly upon the holy invitations given by our Saviour for all to come unto him, About 12 o’clock of the same night his daughter wasat his bedside. and inquired how he felt. He replied, “pret ty comfortable, but { feel that | cannot be long with you all, and my request is, that when I depart hence, that you will send for my old friends, Major Lewis and Ju Campbell, (but I fear, he said, that Judge Campbell is too feeble to cowe,) to make arrangements with my son for my funeral. I'wishto be buried in a plain, unostentae tions manner, without display or pomp. ed for the night. ‘The next day he was taken with rather an excessive diarrhcea, and said to his son that if it was not checked it must soon take him off; and yet, he said, it would be dan- gerous to check it, as it was nature finally giving way to the disease. During the day he conversed generally about his farm and business, and talked much of his be- loved country, of the certainty he felt as to the annex- ation of Texas, of the letters he had just received from our Minister to Texas—of the stand taken by his old, early friend and companion in arms, Gen. Sam. Houston, on the subject, all of which convinced him that “all ia safe.” He spoke also of our Oregon difficulty, and doubt. ed not that the present administration would do its dut: to the country, expressing the most abiding confidence President Polk, but hoping and praying that the difficulty would be amicably arranged between the two govern- ments ; but if not, said he, “ let war come—there will be patriots enough in the land to repel foreign aggression, come from whence it may—to maintain sacredly ourjust rights, and to perpetuate our glorious Constitution ‘and liberty, and to preserve our happy Union.” In the evening of the same day his mind was so much engrossed with our foreign affairs, that he determined to anbosom himself in a letter to his faithful friend, Preai- dent Polk—he wrote to him a long letter in relation to our foreign relations—it was the last letter he ever wiete, and breathed a degree of affection for the President, and He then rest- | confidence in his wisdom, which will make it an invalu- able memento. On the next fay he franked a letter to the Hon. Thos. F. Marshall, of Kentucky, which was the last time he signed his name. the early part of this day (Saturday) he felt comfortable until he was taken with a cold clammy per- | you? spiration—he regarded this as another indication that the hand of death was upon him, but he received the sum- mous with resignation and composure, He conversed / loss than he had done on the day preceding, but there was the same pious resignation running through his re+ racks, which had charaeterized all hie, conversation fer many days. Late in the evening Dr. Esselman arrived, and tied ineffectually to check the diarrhera. Early on the next morning (Sunday) Dr. Exselman was called Tuto his room, and in a short time the General faint- ed away, and it was supposed at the moment that he was dead; but he revived immediately, and called all his lit- tle grand-children, with the other members of his fami- ly, around him—he took his grand-children by the hand, blessed and kissed them tenderly, told them that they ood parents, that they must be obedient children, p holy the Sabbath day, and read the New Testa- t. His eye-sight had by this time become dimmed— n took him by the hand and said: “ Father, how do feel_-do you know me?” He answered: “ Know Yes—l would know you all, if 1 could see— bring my spectacles.” He put them on and said: “Where is my daughter and Marian? God will take care of you for me—| am my God’s—I belong to him—T go but a short time betore you, and I wantto meet all, white and black, in Heaven,” He then said “ is the matter with my dear children—have I alarmed you? Oh! do not ory—be od children, and we will all meet in heaven.” He then died away and expired calmly and quietly, at 6 o'clock P.
