RtuissO Of Mr.. T1xfz4soN's Admis;assfisis;.


THE treatment Of Mr.. Jcf3crfon toward Gel,
Wilmington, MIR. Adams, the contribution, and
the federal administration has been in part de-
icribed. He attempted unfortunately to ov.
crwhelm all by obloquv, as detachable as unfoun-
ded. He did NOT refrain his parsizans from
the exprttlion Of the moQ virutnt abute agsinft
Warrington, until ne perceived the riGng indig-
nation Of the country would quickly annihiiate
hiS political eonlequcnce. unle:s joined ia trains
Of affection toward It's common father. Then
i was, that diftinction was attempted be-
tween the conduct Of the two preGdents.
While the friends Of mir. Jcfsrfon
rcprobatcd Mr.. Adams a. monitor, they pre-.
tendedly adorsd Mr.. Waihington. Soon after
his death. ii was declared THAT Mr.. Jeiferfon had
been more in his confidence, than any pcr(on in
America. The proof we have already addnccd,
is fil6cicdt ID pronounce this the mott undif-
gui(cd ca!umnv, to which the palenefs Of party
ever reiorted TO tuppcrt frail popularity. The
conduct Of the Secretary Of State in the tin,s Of
Genet n,Nf mark It with indcliable faiihood.
indeed nothing more need be taid TO demon.
arate az we'll the unceaiing hatred of Mr.. Jefer-
ION toward MIR. Warrington. as the great diff.
ftfence between their maainas Of government.
But this ought not to content Us. To exhibit
more ciearlythe tccne If groh deception. which
!,as been praeticed on the American people, and

Adams, we ihall quotc certain letters Of the for
