 From tse Doscniag Go@ette. My LETTERS AGAlN.-Now, says I, let us turn over another heap of my letters, and see If there is any spice in any of em l to help cook up little bit of a dish for my readers. A letter dated July 30, from 1 Perry county, in Pennsylvania, brings five names and five dollars, and talks to me as follows.

 "Ne entertain a great respect and af- lection for Major Jack. Downing, believing that his notions of the duties of public officers, &c. are correct, and wish him great success in reforming the feformers but if this cannot be accomplished, at least in preventing their nlapraetees and mal- interpretations from subverting the con- stitution and destroying our civil libef- ties.

 Very respectfully, &c."

 Very good, very good-reform the re- formers. Well, according to my way of thinking. it is about lime. There's been the queerest kind os reformin going on since the ginerals ben Presidentthat ever 1 heard of The gineral is capital hand at refornin, only he does 1t backwards, and that don't always work so well. fn the first place ye sec, when he come in to be President, lie said it was not right to have members of C9pgfo4s appointed to office, and he would have | reiormin about 1t. = So he went risst aiRt as fast as he could go, but he gofr 10 d.5ng it backwards, and in three or ioaT yesliz fae appointed great many more .nehlhcrsEf Congress so elliee, than all the Tresideats that had gone be- fore him ilstyi ever e''Esle'ia s9 6 years.

 And at1t piBsF ef reiornasn that he saia sse meant 10 00, was 10 stop the patron- age of government from interfering with the freedom of electiens. Well he hap pened to take hold of this backwards toe, and in fact it want long before most all the officers of the government, all over the country, were turned into complete army of elecaoneerers, and swads and swads of money in the Post Office was turned out for electioneering, and he that would elec- tioneer the hardest should have the great est " extra allowances" and the highest price fer his ..paper, blanks and twiae !"

 And another thing that he didn't think was right, was, that the other Presidents had stood two tarms apiece. He meant to have a reEormin about that; q President hadn't ought to stand but one tarm.--Wen, he went at this backwards too, and he ran backwards till he got into the second tarm, and some say he means to go into the third tarm yet, so as to show that he can do more than any other President ever did.

 Another grand reformin that he was go- ing to have, was to dock off the expenses of the government, so that 1t shouldn't cost the people such monstrous sight of money. And true as Pm live he went to doing this backwards too, and he kept q docking off and docking off, till he reduced the expenses from twelve 10 thirteen millions q year up to about twenty mil lions.

 Now how the Gineral got such notion of refornin every thing backwards l cant contriye.

 AsI cant stop to look over any more of my letters to-day, Illj jest add few truths to keep my word good, and then wind up for to-day.

 Truth I. The Gineral has got back again to Washington, for the Globe says so. and that always tells the truth back wards, and the In.elliggencer says So. and that always tells the truth straight forwards. So as we have it both ways, backwards and forwards, I've no doubt he'se got back.

 Truth ?. The Gineral is no statesman, nor never was; but he knows how to fight, and is pretty good gunner

 Truth 3. Amos Kendall IS no better than he should be.

 Truth 4. Martin Van Buren IS not so high as he wants 10 be.

 Truth 5. The parties in New York have got little hotter than they ought to be. And if they don't cool down a little before their election comes along, think they bet ter get me to send on Sergeant Joel with my old Downingvlle Company to keep em from knocking each others noses of when they come to vote.
