Our correspondent has confined these eX-
tracts to the .Ncrtheyn f0hers, no doubt on
the suppostion that those of Virginia and Of
the South would furnish bat few EXTRACTS,
which display the real spirit Of the worst
class of the Federal party.-This distinction
is in most cases a correct one. The Fede-
raj papers seem to have lost much of their
ardor and energy, on their nearer approach
10 the sun. Whether from the relaxing in
fuence OF the climate, or from the want of
that efficient support which is furnished by
congenial minds, is not so material to en-
quire. There is no lack, however, of sound
doctrine & exquisite .faUour in these papers.
Most OF them take care TO Gull out from their
c0mpatriot papers Of the north, bouquet of
those flowers. which best titiate the nerves of
their readers but except few Sly busy DO

the Charleston Courier. it must be confessed,
that the Southern fields are remarkable nei-
ther 70 rthe fertility OF their soil nor luxurian-

to follow than to lead the way. They think
it more convenient to transplant than to pro-

brilliant hiana which though set in rather
| a remote corner as if to elutie curiosity, was
calculated by its dazzling colours to attract
every eye.-It is far from us to ascribe this
communication to the gentlemen who CON
duct that paper We are disposed to be-
leve that this "precious moroccan" Is the
effusion OF some Tninion of monarchy, some
emissary, sore tory at heart, some British
