The Editors of the Boston Yankee, after
copying from our paper Of last week, the ar

unfounded. The Editor OF this paper is as
much interested for the honor of Boston, as
The Editors of the Yankee, (it being the place
of his nasivity,) but nevertheless, what has
been advanced in our paper is ssrictly true i;
Adam Babcock dare not deny it, and we are
certain his political friends who heard him,
will rot. The conduct of the leading men oe
the federal party in Boston, frequently.ex-
cites blush for tteir degeneracy from revo-

there arc others IL Boston, az we before re-
marked, who secretly advocate the same "a
bominable principles, butfor political reasons,
they cautiously conceal them. The ssnti-
ments of Mr.. Babcock, as expressed by him,
with his appeal to the Almighty, are SO wick
cd and abominable, that We should not have
published them, unless supported by the most
irrefrsgablc proof. If it is considered any
ex,enuation of Mr.. Babcock's political depra-
vity, we would mention, that about the time
he made the observations referred to, he sub

We noticed lately in several federal papers,
(among. which was the Newport Mercury,)
letter from Baltimore, stating that some hum
dreds of Irishmen, who had for years exercis-
cd the elective franchise in that City, had
lately reported themselves to the Marshal, as
British subjects. A Baltimore paper has de-
MED the assertion, and called upon the writer
of the letter to produce single instance of
the kind. As that has not been done, we
have right TO presume il 10 be one of those
falsehoods to which the opposition are oblig-
ed TO resort as prop to their sinking cause.
AS the Mercury has lately exhibited some
dawnings of returning political reason, wo
expected they would have contradicted tho
vile caumny in their last paper, but were dis
appointed.
