avs and they had also endured the suferngs re
suting from government of men.


1t is not, therefore, surprising that they should
have selected their rulers from amongst the friends
of constitutional law.


In the second place, they had not forgotten the
course pursued by our present chief magistrate,
when member of the Senate of the United States,
at the time of the ccsssion of Louisiana. &s


Mr. Adams voted for The ratification Of the treas
ty, but when law for the government Of that ter
rtory was before congress, he protested against IN
vestpg the governor thereof with the authority Of
a Roman Consul. He claimed for the citizens OF
Louisiana the rights and privileges Of American ct-
zens, and he eloquently appealed to the prnciples
consecrated by the charter of our independence, in
yindication Of those rights. Mr. Adams was Of
opinion that the consent of the people of Louisiana
ought 10 have been obtained and the sanction Of
the people Of the old states gwen previously to the
being united into one political family. In this re-s
spect, he showed himself a trae friend to The rights
Of The people.


One action such as this, is worth thousand emp-s
ty declarations, which we daily hear, Of riendshp

gush between professions and actions. They see in

"a friend who wishes to see g liberty and law,
march hand in hand" SIMON SNYDER

Messrs. Editors-The Administration cause is
gaining ground daily in this county. Six months
ago the Jacksonians claimed 1000 majority, they
have now came down to the tune of $50. 1t is the
opinion of the most judicious politicians, that MIR.
Adams will have small majority in the county Of
Orange. The jackson faces wear different aspect
since the result of the elections has been received
from Louisiana &c. their faces and tongues made Of
Hickory have turned to Weeping Willow.
