 R27adietorch, 4. '. Oct. 5th, 1852. NY DEAR SIa--The freedom of the press. IS certainly one of tie most important pri Vieges gaarantied to freemen so much so, that without it. our political rirhts would soon be swallowed up by the insidi. ous encroachments of power, and we be reduced from the elevated stand of free men, to state of abject vassalaqe. So ehorotighiy convinced were tife stafesmcn oi o9' of the vital importance of this pri. shege, to the cause ot liberty itself. that 'es inVioiaollIty IS guarded with the most Seu''ious care, by express provision in the fe4e'ai compact and the fraHers@ of the siSte governments have been equally care itl Of its preservation by the fnserlioy, of '.i".'ar provisions Tn their respective con slitutions l am no advocate for an in. limited freedom of the press. hut snral,, the durability of our institntione and . faithful administration of the goyern,nent

No matter if they are .'ackson-men, how they came so.- Though neither of them can probably tell single prominent measure of the admin istration, it is enough for us to know that they are Jackson-meh and enough for them to know that they are on the stronr side: Hazzas hazza!! huzza.l

 In the location ofthe Land Office at Fay- ettegIile, and inthe selection of officers. the lion. Delegate had an eye single 10 ms own interest.
