THE PRESIDENCY.

OF kindred character with the attack on the
manners and temper of Mr.. Adams, is that on his
religious character. We understand the advocates
of one of the candidates have asserted that HE was
the only one who had not abandoned the religion
of his fathers-thus imputing to Mr.. Adams, and
the other candidates, disbelief in Christianity.
No attack, so FAR as regards Mr.. Adams, could be
more unfortunate; for we believe no statesman Of
the present any former period, has had more
thorough persuasion of the truth of Christianity, or
has more uniformly performed the duties required
of the declples o! that religion Fortunately, we
are not left to lecure as it relates Mr.. Adams
Opinions on this subject; but we have them from
his own pen, in the most striking and impressive
manner. When Mr.. Adams was Minister in Rus
STA, he left part of his family behind him in Gum
ICY. series oil letters written by him whilst there,
10 his son, IS expressly devoted to his remarks on
the Christian Religion, and the Book which con-
talDs its history and precepts. If the public could
possess this little volume, they would never ques-
ton the manners, temper, or christian principles of
Mr. Adams. But to request made within few
months, by a Christian Society, for permission
to publish these letters, MIR. Adams h4s given a.
refusal. When they can be published, without any
Suspicion OF the motive for publication. we have mo-
doubt they will be given TO the world and will add
another ustlious testimony Of greatness to the
truth Of our religion. Although these letters have
never been printed, many manuscript copies oil
them have got abroad, and hundreds have read them
and they have been introduced into some private
schools And we trust, when The purpose for
which We quote them, TO defend Mr.. Adams agains
A most cruel attack, is considered, we shall not be
charged with piracy, in making a few extracts from
hem.
Our quotations will be to two points-Mr. A i
lams' opinion Of the Billie, and the religion il in
-uIcates-a and his opinion OF the operation and gov
,Fninent Of the passions.
