NEW PAMPHLET.
NUMBER VI.

The writer passes from Mr.. Clinton to
Ambrose Spencer. The following passa-
ges are selected from what he SAYS of this
gentleman.
I" 1t will naturally be asked, why, in my
remarks on the proceedings of the celebrat-
ed council of 1900 and 1901, Mr.. Spencer
has not been more infinitely noticed. He
is not entitled to particular attention., be-
cause MIR. Clinton has uniformly de clared,
and the assertion has never been doubted,
that Spencer acted entirely under his con-
trout; that he wasa mere engine set in mo-
ton to execute the clumsy plans which
himself had neither courage nor skill to ac-
complish. He has moreover become so
odious in the country in which he resides,
and throughout the state, that to attempt
to render him more contemplate would be
an idle waste of time. have already stat
ed, that this celebrated gentleman, emerg-
ed from obscurity by the - Of his con-
duct; that in the triumphant days of our
political opponents, he was the most outra-
geous and prosecuting federalisti in the state.
Disappointed however in his views, and
tempted by the eetravaga1at rezoard zuhich
tie republcu, barty o6ered to federal de-
serterS, he, like Armstrong, quit their
camp, and became jealous supporter of
the men he had lately prosecuted. The a.
nlmosity OF an apostate cannot be controul-
ed. Savage and relentless, he thirsts for
vengeance every public consideration is
swallowed up in the destructive vortex of
passion and revenge. Such is emphatical-
~ the temper of Ambrose Spencer, who at
terhis conversion, was introduced 10 seat
in the Legislature, by his new friends, for
the express purposes of perpIl5s,xing and per-
scouting his old ones. This task was
faithfully performed. With fend-likeper-
severance he pursued his former associates
and LETT nothing unessayed to torment the
party he had BETRAYED. If his opposition
to the federal party had flown from a con-
viction of their errors, he would have me-
rited applause, as FAR as it was honorably
conducted. But being manifestly the re-
suit of interested motives, he should have
been driven from the societyof republicans;
and for the honor of the party, appearances
justify the hope, that this will soon be done.
His insolence and pride have been tolerat-
ed much longer than his character or his
talents willjustify."
$ Inflated with political consequence,
and occasionally eloathed with little brief
authority, this raving apostate has long
been unexpectedly insolent and naughty to
his equals. But prudently recollecting
from whence he sprung, he is ever humble
and obsequlous to his superiors. An in
flexible profession of virtuous cowardice.
ne has, with job,1ike patience, submitted to
