JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN. jjj There are some important facts con necieJ with the public career of James K.Polk which !hou!d be remembered;. AmorigMhem are the following, which we find iti one of bur exchange papers : It should be remembered, that James K. Polk ;s ihc candidate of the Southern Locofocos that South Carolina refused to give in her ad hesion to the Convention until he was unmina jed thai she is for Free Trade and Texas, and thai Mr. Calhoun declarrd he would sup- piirt UU mail iui itoiuem Uldl nils UUl U i IUO 'J'rade man. should be remembered, that no Southern Locolbco has voted lor a Protective Tariff ince the Tariff Act of 1816. It should be remembered, that James K. Polk could not, if elected separate himself from his friends, on this great question, even if he were deposed to do so; thai ho has no desiro to leave them if he could ; and that he is therefore irrevocably committed to the support of Free Trade, and oppo.silion to the Protective Policy. It should be remembered, That tho Nashville Union, his organ, has declared " thai the op pressive Tariff of 1842 has been condemned by every Democrat. Thai its provisions are riewed with abhorrence by Governor Polk and his friends." should be remembered, Thai James K. Polk declared the present Tariff Act, a contrivance ..MIDA'I'il.., C? V... .. ...

See Journal H. R. 1830, 31. p. 243. It should be remembered, That James K. Polk vmed against the bill to provide for the indigent Mifierers by fire in Alexandria, which passed, yea 109, nays 67. See Jour. 1826 7, p. 183. a ne veil wimarawu folic, Texas and Free Trade. We are getting the truth from the South, as to ihe real views of James K. Polk and his friends. They are beginning lo shew their hands, A letter from Charleston, published in the Bnsion Atlas, says " ihai the Hon. Henry L. Pinckney staled, at the Democratic meeting last week, that Mr. Polk had to disguise his opinions io meei tne views ot tne iorinern Btmocrats but that hewonld state,on undoubt ed authority, to his democratic brethren of ihe South, that, in case of Mr. Polk's election, ihe Hon. John C. Calhoun would be continued in his oIice of Secrotarj' of State, and that ihe administration would be pledged to use all its influence to carry out the Annexation of Texas, and ihe reduciion of ihe Tariff." Proclaim this in trumpet tongued notes throughout the land and let the people know the secret measures of James K. Polk. ' NEW 'TAILORING- establishSient.

During a thunder-storm at Baltimore, on Tuesdaynhe superintendent of Morse's Mag netic Telegraph removed the galvanic batteries and suspended the operations of the telegraph, avoid being injured by the electrical dis iharges from ihe clouds; the lightning having keen attracted by the wires, counteracted the Feet of the discharges from the batteries, and itnerrupted the operation of the telegraph. On uie withdrawal of the batteries, the wires were operated upon by each successive flash of light ning, the telegraph working precisely in ihe same way as when in operation for the trans mission of intelligence, thus proving (what few doubt) that tho electricity of the atmosphere and that generated by the galvanic battery are identical, or like in their operation upon con ducting substances.
