FROM THE AURORA,

Mr.. Dnane-You have announced the an.
pontment by the governor of bis fon-in- law,
DR.. BUCHANAN, as the LaSaretto phyfician,
IN rather an extraordinary file, as if you fup-
poied the importation of Lazaretto phyiician
from another fate, was matter of WONDER
IL tails to my lot, if this be your opinion, to
differ from you widely. The appointment, fir,
is one the bef that could have been made.
and the governor has difplayed great zeal for
the interefts of the city, great difcernment, and
what is more than all, great difntereftednefs and
eo'5fifMfonal devotion in having made the felec-
ton. Don't you know, that there is not a me-
dical man in Pennsylvania qualified to fill this
Office And this being the fact, ought it to be a
fubject of furprife, that he fhouId have chofen
a phyGcian from another fate Rather than
ceniure his paterna care, we ought to tender
the homage of our higheft veneration to the 60
vernon for his confederation in placing one of
his own family as a centinel over our health
and our lives. When the king of England fent
his royal fon, the duke of York, to command
his armies on the continent, did not the world
commend a deed, which expofed the royal
blood to danger & to death And will Won. fir,
depreciate the act of our royal governor, who
has expofed, by his appointment, one of the
hopes and bottoms of his houfe to the conta-
minaton of the fwinilh multitude and to the
contact of peftilence and death 1t was out
off pure love for you that he did 70, and you
ought to conftitute him governor for life for 70
fatheriy concern for your welfare.
That fuch an appointment was the mott iu-
dicious and the mott wife mutt appear from the
various requirements and purfuts of DR.. Bnc-
ebanan. He ftudied medicine and commenced
the practice of it in Baltimore. As man could
not be good phyfician without being ftudent
Of morals alto, he commenced the ftudy of law,
but whether of the common or uncommon law,
the writer cannot lay-after which he became a
magiRrate and finally an apothecary. Now,
fir, will it be pretended that man who has
travelled round the circle of fcence in this way,
is not the bet qualified man in the world 20 be
our Lazaretto phylician 1t certainly cannot
be dened.-Let me then ak you, whether
there is phyiiCian in Pennfylvania poIe1ed of
fuch luminous qualifications? For my own
part | know of none. ihould cafe of difeafe
occur at the Lazaretto, DR.. Buchanan will be
enabled from his fri ftudes to treat aud to
cure it-Sbould cafe of trefpafs happen, he
will know as well az well as Mr.. Dallas, whe-
ther the action ought to be brought againf the
trefpaHers jointly or /eDerailg, whether againft
each feverally, if friend is 10 faved, or againlt
the whole when juitice. Is to be obtained

Rand, as well as Robert Wzarton, whether a
warrant ought to ifile, with or without the
oath OF the complainant. Aud Mould dofe
of fats or clyfter he required, here the apo
thecary will be at hand, 70 that in every point
OF view, the governor has difcovered a pre-emi-
hence in his appointment of DR.. Buchanan.
If, fir, in the true title ola grumbletonian,
you are difpofed to enter your caveat aganft
the appointment on constitutional ground, here
again you will be foiled. The appointment is
in accordance with the contribution, and thus
prove it:
The governor is the contribution by the
contribution the governor makes all appoint
ments; therefore, all appointments made by
the governor are constitutional. This is as good
a fyogifm as can be made by Judge Smith, or
by the renowned and al-accomplifhed Adonis
LesviJ, and if te6ed by logical rules, will hold
water as well as any fyllogifm that ever efcaped
from the lips of wifdom.--If then, us I have
proved the governor is the contribution (for by
the way, as the governor faid, what do you and
Lei6 know about Lazv y furely it cannot be de-
MED, that the appointment of DR.. Buchanan is
constitutional.
The governor, fir, is the mot di)fntereRed pa
triot in Pennfylvania--N Notwithstanding the fate
belongs to him in fee. fmpie, he has only given
an office apiece to each of his relations, when
he might have distributed them all among the
princes and the prinee0es ef.t5e blood! There
was nothing in the contribution that expressly
prohibited him from making an old woman chief
juftice, and yet, after prince 5ojepb had through
extreme delicacy refufed it, he reluctantly con-
ferred it upon Mr.. TiIghman; you will not
find fyllabe in all the contribution againtt his
creating little Sane5o Panaa grand equerry, or
his adiutant general, or higb eonaa6ie of Phila-
delphia, or any thing you plesfe, and yet you
fee Sanebo has received no additional badges of
diltinetion, nor has any money flowed into his
Purfe, even from cierkihip in the Office of the
fecretary of the commonwealth after this
you fhould think proper to complain, will
fay that your patriotifm, like that of Dallas, is

ton, for contempt of court. or an affidavit Of
fu6p9na, and tender of money to defray the
expences off travel. This gave rife to de-
fultory difcuiiion, between the council for the
United States and for the defendant, which ter
minated in decihon of the court, that they
would hear the arguments of council on both
points, this morning at ten O'Clock to which
time the court adjourned.
Daily Adv.
A motion was made by the council for
the defendants, that compulsory procefs
be itlued to fecure the attendance of Mr..
Madifon, Mr.. Dearborne, Mr.. Smith, and
other abient witneffcs. In the courfe of the al
tercation, to which this motion gave rife,
Judge Patterfon read letter, TGgned by the
gentlemen aforementioned Eating, that the
PrcIident of the United States had communicat.
ed to them his decided opinion that the prefent
ituation of public affairs would not admit of
their abfence from the feat of government. The
Court decided that, in order to determine the
propriety of granting a compulsory procefs, it
was necet1ary TO hear the nature and extent of
the teitimony expe6fed-and that, although
the Judges were ready to hear the motion diff
cufed, yet they could not decide upon it, un.
til they had decided a prior motion, offered by
the Dittrict Attorney, the difcuiion of which
was pofponed until this day. The council
then confented that the difcuiIion of this mo.
