1--WE wish not to be understood as imputing
censure to Mr.. Madison's administration; far
from it. We are warm admirers both OF MIR.
Madison and his administration, and also of
Mr.. Jefferson and his administration. The
great expenditure Of the period, to which the
remarks allude, was not the result Of extrava.
Rance on the part Of the administration, but Of
the extraordinary cravings Of the times, and
from the want efa system which has since been
supplied.
