COLO. PICKERING.

Timothy Pickering, in his late venomous
pamphlet, designed to annihate John Quincy
adams, has actually done that gentleman the
most serious and permanent advantage. He has
placed him in company with Mr. Jefferson and
identified the cause of the one with the other.
Every attack on Mr. Adams, has redounded to
his honor end benefit. This will cap the climax,
and make him President OF the u. States. II
is the best possible argument in favor of pub
lie man, that Timothy Pickering and Harrison
Gray Otis are against him, and that he himselfis
connected in conduct or opinion with Mr.. Jce-
ferson. We have been very much amused al
the dilemma in which Mr.. chickering's book has
placed the editorial friends of Mr.. Crawford
They desire earnestly to avail themselves OF
Colo. chickering's gall against John Quincy IA
ans; but rs they affect to be the peculiar dis
ciples of Thos. Jefferson, they afraid of los
ing this credit, by quoting authority the SLAM
ders of his Oldest, last, & most inveterate enemy.
Agree W ith us genlemcn--that the said pam
phlet is the deiormei OF: pring of a malicious,
vindictive and implacabe personal enemy
whose malevolence has survived his Integrity
and envy of the great and excellent, his intel
lects. Binns is the only man, except Colvin,
who quotes him with Complacency! What
shall we think of the erclusiue Republicans,
when they are driven to defend the Hartford
Convention and to quote Timothy Pickering as
authority Alas poor Yorick.

MIR. RANDOLPH.

The last Democratic Press of Philadelphia, tells
very ridiculous tale Of Mr.. Randolph, the Prcsi-
dency and the Steam Boat. We really thought
Col Rinns was man Of better Judgment and tact I,
Inc disposition to no.icc, to record and to repeat
all the words that John Randolph condesccnds to let
fall, no matter how utterly insignificant from their
subject, or III themselves, is sckenng and disgusting
1t Is enough that the retailers Of such ware iufest
society, without numbering the columns of news
paper, which ought to be devoted to more valuable
purposes. Here follows Binns' tale. The gravity
with which he relates it. will divert those of our
dcrs, who are already well acquainted with MIR.
Randolph's exemption from mistakes
Whilst Mr.. John Randolph was on board the
steam boat, passing from this CRY to New York, he
said he should be absent and therefore take no par,
i'll the Presidential Election; but, said he, have
such entire conviction in The certainty of Mr.. Craw-
ford's election, that will stake u thousand dollars
TO five hundred, on it, There several gentle
men present: ESQ Mr.. Randolph not talking tc
himsef,) Some seemed to doubt the truth of MIR
Randolph's opinion hut all declined the bet Gu,

sent and heard Mr.. Randolph offer the bet.o

NINIAN EDWARDS.

By an extract from the Washington Journal, our
readers will perceive that Mr. Edwards has been
caught at last-aud that he is probably by this
time, arrived in the City of Washington. Another
report, that he reached n. Orleans the 9th May,
is therefore incorrect Such extraordinary and con-
Trajectory rumors, flying all the country
that nothing need surprise us.
We do not envy Mr. Edwards his feelings on his
arrival in the City of Washington. They must
strongly resemble the luathing Of the cu|prit, who
looks upon the wiippingpos where he has been fog
ged and disgraccd. The disposition that strong
ly prevails among many of the political disputans
of this country, to advance themselves their po-
itical friends by destroying the reputation Of hcir
rivals, is imfamous-a reflection on the justice and
general morality of the country. 1t does not only
destroy those good feelings which ought to subsist
mong Of honor but of all other courses, it is The
most impolitic and suicidal. Mark it, Messrs. Col
vim, Agg and Gardnor-you who deny that one sin
gle qualification of honesty, talents, courage, exPe
Renee, or orthodoxy, be found but in your scvc
raj predictions for the Presidential candidates
You have Injured your friends Messrs. Crawford
4 Calhoun and Jackson, more by your violent denur
citation of their opponents, by your insolence an
arrogance, than you have the lat,er--nay, YOU h77
positively benefited the last.
