Pre.idsoey. Ia justice To Mr.. Calhoun,
shall briefly observe, the chief objection 10 his
character, has arisen on sccoun, Of some gov.
eminent contracts. II 10 not expected, the
ftieDds Of Genersi Jackson, will seriously
urge forward his claims for elevation. if they
should not, so much The better--bot not per-
bsps SO much the better fo' Mr.. Adams.
They mey in that csse, and probably win
combine their forces, yet DOT with the ssme
zeal, IN favor Of one more successful, and be-
come casting weight, TO promote the eIec.
lion OF southern or western, but not, I ihiok,
as hes recently been sugge.,ed, On eastern
candidate. In this manner, IL in any, The sp.
poin,ment OF Mr.. Adams 80 our pa,ional Grst
ruler my stand Q chance at least, of being d.-
fes'cd. Indeed, IL Is no small argument, to
set The merits Of tho latter, In their highest
light ard utmost importance, 'hsi when view.

posed from the southern part Of tho Union,
wherea, now, beside M. Ctswfoid, we per.
ceive M. Calhoun Of Carolina, and Gen.
Jackson, OF Georgia, severslIy held up for this
ptme des,ir stion OF ofhee. Whsn Je Gsrson
and Madison were chosen, no such division
of opinion existed, or very scarcely, in thass
southern states. Who dared TO controvert
