From disinterested conviction, undoubtedly,
every man has right To change his opinions
But when it is obviously from mercenary motives,
the apostacy of public man is public calamity
1t is not his single loss TO the cause he supported
that is alone to be lamented the deep shade OF
mistrust which his conduct throws on that of all
others, who embark in the same career tends TO
destroy all sympathy with the enthusiasm Of gen.
us, all admiration for the intrepidity of TRUTH all
belief in the sincerity of zeal for public liberty i
their advocates drop one by into the vortex Of
courtiy patronage, every new one that arises will
be more and more regarded as hollow hearted
hypocrite, false and venal angler for pension and
place for there is in these cases no criterion by
which the world can distinguish the baying Of a
noble dog that will defend his crust Till death
from the yelping of political cur that only infests
the heels Of power to be silenced with the oifals
of corruption"

The long truce which we have enjoyed
from political warfare must probably soon be
terminated. The enemy S camp exhibits APP
pearances of preparation to take the field
the ensuing campaign. There is reason 10
believe, however, that there is not an entire
concert in their counsels or movements.
Some are unwilling to commence hostlities
whensthere is SO little TO stimulate them TO
action, so little prospect of success, and when
success, fit should crown their tolls, is, I'M
der present circumstances, SO little desirable.
Their voice is then for peace. But 1t is not
probable that their counsel will prevail.
There are spirits who cannot endure calm !;
for talents and worth then take their proper
stations. A storm is more congenal to their
feelings, when the good and the bad are ming
led together, and the light and worthless are
| more apt to rise upon the surface.
However pleasant it might be 10 find the
people of this state, at the approaching gu
bernatorial election, unite in giving their suf-
frages TO the most worthy, we trust that Mas
sachusetts federalists are willing to meet any
foe that may appear in the field. The repu-
talon of the present Governor is too firmly
fixed to be shaken by any attack !; and, fit
become necessary for friends to rally round
him, il will be shown how firmly fixed he is in
the hearts of the people.-Worcsster Spy.
