MIR. JEFFERSON.
We publish the following as an arti- cle of intelligence, without coneurring in ali the sentiments 1t conveys. Mr. Niles is greatly apprehensive, lest the too full publication of MT. Jefersan's papers, should prove injurious to Mir. Jefferson's fame; and regrets that they were not subjected to such revision and suppression as would guard against that result. We cannot participate in any such regret. We wish to know Mir. Jefferson precisely as he was, and are satisfied that his fame should be trusted to his own writings. If we are to have the posthumos works of a great man, let us have them as he has left them; free from the garbling of oficious and fasti- dious friends-and recommended by what most recommends all posthumous works--the probability that they con vey truth.-Reatuckian.

It is stated that the Philadelphia library company has refused to place the vol unes on their shelves, because of certain religious and political opinions express ed. Every man is entitled to the full enjoyment of his opinions. We ac- knowledge no human power that has a right to dictate them--to establish or thodoxy or denounce heresy and reject, as impudent or presumptuous, all at tenapts of the sort. let them assume the most imposing shape that they may but there is courtesy due by every man to the society in which he lives, a respect even for unhappy preiudices or gross superstitions, that should restrict and restrain persons from an uncalled- for opposition to them, when generally entertained or suffered by others. And, though when man speaks, he should speak only the truth, as it appears to hin-it is by no means cxpedient, at all times, for one to tell all that he knows or believes to be true.

 The parts objected to in Mir. Jeffer- sons political opinions, are chiefly in some transient remarks on the character and conduct of WASHINGTON, and other distinguished individuals, long since de- ceased-the result of his own political feelings, at the time; which, perhaps, sometimes led him into these errors or mistakes to which all men are liable ]; and these are also subject to material changes, as the naotiDes of men become better understood. A remarkable case
