 POLITICAL PAsoUIEADE.-Iti is stated tn the Nation al Journal that Mr. Farmer has published map O Michigan, in which number Oi new counties appear under the classical names of Jackson, Van Buren Ingham, Eaton, Branch, Berrlen, and Barry A cor respondent of the Detroit Journal, in coumunica tion to that paper expresses anxiety "to lear, something of the pecUliarites of the worhes refer red to-" with the view of determining which of th counties he shall select for his residence To this ap plcation the editor thus repIies.-Bosron Courier.

 This is pretty difficult subject of arbitra ment; and were it not that Mir. Careful is personal friend, who brought us a delicious bowl of strawberries and cream the last time he was down from Haverstraw, we should decline the task altogether. The proper course will be to state the objections to each of the counties mentioned, if names are to have the anticipated influence, and then decide in favor of the least evil.

 1st. In the County of Jackson, the code will be military. SuulMonses will be served with pistols. and warrants with blunderbuss- es. Fteri Jacias they will translate fiery frocas and burn mans house down. Ca SO they "lli mistake for terms used tn fencing, and enforce 1t with a lounge of the bayonet. No road Will be allowed to rMn out of it, for fear tt will run into State, and the "second sec ton" will be enforced for ever.

 2d. ln the County of Calhoun, neople will be born nulliers and every one will have a right to secede, and make county of his own who chooses. County taxes or mend ing bridges, and taking care of the poor, not being "specifed" in the constitution of Mich 1lxtr. gal. h.,

 Sd. The County of Fan Buren will be full of snakes, with brilliant scales, and fascinating eyes vending their noiseless and scrpentine way through the grass, as cunning as their great ancestor; and they will teach the peo- pie to chop logic, which is not of the schools, to make the worse appear the better reason, and while their tongues drop mama, to privi- ly intend doing their neighbors a bad turn. The sufferings of some of them will be intol- erable.

 4th. In the County of Inghan, the board of supervisors will always make wrong estim- ates, SD that the jails and poor houses will be unprovided for, the roads unmended, the little boys untaught in the common schools, the constables unpaid for saying 70 yes," and keeping the peace, and every species of the

 mechanic arts will be neglected, except paper , to cypher on.

 } 5th. We would by no means advise our friend to move into the County of Branch. The people will study nothing but metaphys- ics. They will sit and think, 80 that there

 will be no houses built to live in, and no vict- uals cooked to eat. The traveller, as he passes through that land, will think it part of the grounds of the sleeping beauty in the

 wood. in which the domestics have n~t yet

 been reused from their lethargy. Or.if some one of them should attempt to walk, he will run bis head against the next tree, or trip

 over the next stump, and test the Berklelan

 theory of the non- existence of matter.

 9th. Of the county of Eaton beware !-- , The whole population will be Cadmuses, and every one will make an alphabet and gram mar, if not language for himself Babel was faint type of the confusion which will prevail there. Recollection will retain the fact of it's discords when Babel itself shall

 have been forgotten.

 7th. There will be no use of going into the , County of Barry, because you will be turned

 out as soon as you get ina cavalier process which the people will call Nortoniziag. And

 they will accuse you of having picked theii pockets, when they have thrust you forth as , naked as the back of your hand. .

 9th. Nor can we recommend it as safe to

 settle in the county of Berrien. Before you

 know it y0u will wake up some morning and

 ind the county annexed to Georgia, and that you are subject to imprisonment for four years if you don't believe it. You will find . you are citizen as far as being sued, fined and hanged goes; but you will not be allow ed to give testimony. If you have any gold or jewelry about you they will take it away, because you have no business with such

 things.

 On the whole, then, we recommend for a , location either in the county of Oakland or Washtenaw. There are great many fine openings there, and several gentlemen are already living there in the best of clover. The letter heretofore copied into our paper . rom the Literary Subaltern, purporting tC , have been written by Mr. Jefferson to dis.

 tinguished capitalist of Massachusetts, has been pronounced, by most of the Jackson , papers, to be forgery and it's authenticity has been strongly questioned by many edit. ors friendly to Mr. Clay. In the Literary Snbaltern of the 18th instant, the letter is a. gain printed, with the following, among oth. CT introductory remarks:

 Before we proceed to re-cnpy the letter, however. we will add, that now, in the pre-. sence of our God and our cOuniry-n the f presence of the American People-we pledge oGrsetUes to adduce at a proper time-at such time as we shall think most expedient- such proof of the genuineness of the letter, as shall satisfy the most incredulous, the most obstinate, and the most abandoned of the Jackson party that the document was written II A tE-
