The Adams Corresponding COMMITTEE

u. will find on the cd page, together with
an able address to the voters OF Virginia.
Every day brings to light some new in
consistency oil the caucus votaries, The

N their zeal as the election approaches,
n faslen upon Nix ADAMS their bscknied
charge of premeditated and corrupt "a
postacy. The old story OF the embargo
,ote is dressed out in new language for
each succeeding week, and the evidence
Of the once despised and intriguing
PlckERINs. is mainly relied on to accom-.
pisb their object. They pretend to be-
6eye, that Mr. ADAMS could never have
given that vote from "pure and disinte-
n,tsd motives, and urge his age as ano.
,ber proof that some sinister design must
have lurked in his bosom. Even this The
nation is not quite credulous enough to
believe; but the ridiculous conceit is car
RED farther. II has been no less boldly
than falsely asserted. that he deserted has

and that bis diplomatic employment in
Russia was the price OF bis base prostIlu'

Among candid men, such an assertion re-

these gentlemen, we conceive, must Ger.

suspected it; and suspicion, 10 case Ike
