Is not William Jones violent enthusiast
in favour of an energctick form OF govern
n,ent, that is, King, House of Lords, and
Commons He has talents---but where Can
we End them Are they on record, oro,in
his pocket they certainly cannot be in his
head. We will net dctract his MERITS 80
We believe blm an honest man, aud good
citizen, and will do right in "a subordinate ca
pacty but is in no wise calculated tor Gov
ernour of this State, rs his Information is
small, and his TALENTS limited. But the
Interpretations !--oh, most true At
his command Science bows, Literary talents
pays homage, and Wisdom yields her scep-
tire Within his caracious mind may be
found all the distinguished QUALITIES that
exalts the HERO, honours the man, and Dig
ni6es the Christian. To II IzN the sun,
moon and stars pay obeisance; and Nature
cries aloud-Thou art nonpareil ! In the
walks Of life he has been undeviatc, decorous,
scrupulous and correct. Justice is his object

But the federal candidates are incorrupt.
Indeed, blessed be the recollection, we like
TO have forgot it; but pray, MIR. Integrity,
did not this imnaeuidfe child Of PISTr, MI
liam Jones receh G the Boston resolves, pas
sed by CaxIs7oPHxR GoRs e Co. in January
1909. instead OF ihcir being addressed to
he Govcrnour Did not Wiiiam jones lay
those resolves and letter before a select com-
miltcc offederal fricnds,and did he not preside
at tha: meeting as chairman Did not WH-
liam Jones return an answer, transmit those
resolves whci hs voted for, aud were passed
at the Greenwich Session, in February, 1909,
to CHRfSToPHER Core. Is Co. Will UU-
liam Jones, or his friends, inform the publick
why those resofves,( (of Massachusetts) were
not transmittedto Governonr tENHEa, the
then Chief Magistrate of the State Will
he, or his friends, Inform the puhiick why he
was selected tor that purpose Gracious
GOD are the liberties and rights of the

Tor daring TO vote his sentiments Who dis

Who threatens Who whips them at tho

what is it the federal party, as party have

We have not time, at this late hour Of the
day TO descend to particulars; at some future
Time We will 20 more minutely into this
examination and present to publick ii0llgna-
tion and abhorrence, those men, who falsely
call themselves Washing onian. They have
sicked up cust that may in lhe end suffo-

We know the "KNAVE" that wrote it

others by the depravity of his own. His VIC
es, his impiety, corruption, and baseness,
shall be given to the publick. The picture
that we shall draw, shall paint too accurately

10 their proceeding. We really cannot see
how the General will sit down under this ne
