 We cannot, says the American, better comment up- on this opinion (which has not been denied, because it is well known that even though might be hoped to bear down the testimony to its truth of any n dividual even though respectable as GOv Coles, there are many others to whom Jefferson had expres- sed the apprehensOns,) than by copying the marks of the Richmond Whig, in relation to it.

 "We do (says the Whig) publish this opinion of Mir. Jefferson, with the hope the expectation of proselytism. We know too much of party spirit and party feelings to expect it. Fools to be vnced-the men of sense who support General Jack son, do it in the face of facts; in defiance of thou sand evidences of his unftness, imposing and overwhelming, than can be the opinion of Thomas Jefferson any other man. They have gone too far recede-or they infatuated to change, tho one should come from the dcad But there is a nu- class of meutrals, who have yet to de- csion between Adams and Jackson. Is not Mir. Jef. ferson's opinion entitled to weight and consideration with them Did not his information embrace the hs tory of the whole human family? Was not his experi and observation, the longest, the closest, the most profound and philosophical of any who has taken interest in the destinies of country? Will any doubt his devotion his country and human liberty every where Was not he the great apostle of Repub Lcanism Mir. Jefferson respected Gen. Jackson for his personal merts and honoured him for his public servicesyet did he think and say, and at time when he longer had any personal interest how the affairs of the United Stateswere managed, tat he oeced the prospect o his election to tue Presidency, bad omem tor the durability te Repblic---as evidence that the American people, like their Republican predecessors in Europe, ready to after military lender, and surrender their liberties to the first aspiring mili- tary chieftan who could dazzle them with the lustre of his glory"

 "The Litclfeld County Post, due some three weeks since, has not yet come to hand 1t has been suggest ed that there certain strctures on correspon- dent in that number of the paper, and the modest Ed itor has withheld his sheet in consequence. This we cannot believe of the courteous genenan-somc Post Master must have hooked it-or some thief must have broached the mailbag and laid violent hands that paper, the most valuable thing in it. Mir. Smith withhold his papers from us No indeed. He is sand to be the most honest man in all Litchfcd County devoid of low-cunnng, deceit hypocrisy, and all of evil-dvested of even that cursed bane which engendereth strife, ycleped party spirit We consider him one of the tarest specimens of Adams democra- cy--a strange congregation of WOrdS-v1negar and o--but Mr. Smith is honest. We wish he would send another paper in place of the missing, solen stray cd, lost number.'

 The above was published in the Hartford Times on the 4th inst Our readers will recolect the remarks upon the article in paper of the 7th. Inthe Times of the 11th the above is called "cvil request for missing number of the Pos," and the editor accuses of every thing vile, for noticing his "reques in the manner we did, In the Times of the 18th Mir. Wells boasts bravely of having detected in "pal pablo fasehood" for having asserted i'll our hrst mo- tice of h..i that the Post received by him, and the article in question read,' &1c: We did not con- sder the above civil paragraph" any proof the contrary rather considered it direct attempt at picking an editorial quarrel with It surely car res very much of that appearance the face of the it, and did act counter to human weakness in viewing it in that hgh especially since we were warn- ed some two or three months ago, that immediately after the close of the Legislature, attack would be made upon usby this paragon ofrepublcan excellence. We considered it impossible that the editor of the Times alone should miss hspaper, when all rsheets sent to Hartford covered in the same envelope; and we also considered it almost impossible that the whole package should be lost. Such however ap- pears to have been the fact; and had the editor reality cvilly requested' the number in question, 1t would have been forwarded and no {" ink shed' upon the subject.

 We again very civilly'' request Mir. Wells to con fine his attacks upon political questions which may be debated candidly. The common sense of the people is neither pleased nor eded by such indefinite attacks upon the character, political moral, of each other as individuals. Show wherefore you have dis- carded us from tho republican family point out our political heresy; give your views of political rectitude place your standard and stick to it, and we will either contend with you, publicly acknowledge your political infallbility.

 The Hat Shop of Messrs B. Kilbourn x Go. in the vicinity of this village, took fire Saturday night last fortunately the fire discovered and extin- guished without any material damage. We mention this circumstance because reports have gone abroad that the whole establishment destroyed; and the loss they have suffered by the fire, between $lOO and $200 is sufficient, without loss of custom from an impression that their business must be suspended for a season. The damage is nearly repaired, and their business will not be suspended on account oft.
