Some apology is due to our subscribers
for the indifference of the paper on which
the Wilmingtonan is issued this week. we
were disappointed in not being furnished with
areguar supply, from the paper maker, and
consequently were compelled to make up
deficiency out of that of not so good quail
~, and less in size.
To Correstondents.-''F .*"**" is ex-
ceptionable. We have no objection to ad'
init 4veH 4urittsn essays upon the sub
;rct which he has selected, but they must
contain more suLtance than the one before
us.
~" Cor particular reasons. cannot ap-
pear.
Il will be seen by an advertisement IN this
davis paper, that MIR. Cardeli intends giving
in this Borough, a course Of lectures on the
PHILOSOPHY of language. Those who have
had the pleasure OF bearing this gentleman,
bear ample testimony to the talent and abb
lity displayed by him, in this department OF
science. 4 lumbc, Of gentlemen, whom we
could name, as being the first among the
literati of Wilmington. speak Of his lectures
in the highest terms of eommendatlon; as
likewise do, We believe, all who attehoca
his first course, in this place.
We hope Mr.. Cardell will receive from
the liberal and enlightened citizens OF our
town, that encouragement which his indefa-
tiyable research and his successful exertions
in the cause of science so justly entitle him
Those who are engaged in the instruction
of ,outh-- at least such as prefer new truths
TO long established crror,-it is presumed
will hail with the most cordial welcome the
new system of language offered by Mr.. Car
dell. which renders plain, useful and easy oil
access, branch of science, heretofore con-
sidered rs dry, barren and dithcnt.
In compliance with the particular desire
of number of our friends, we have copied
into another part of this paper, from the
New Harmony Gazette, Preliminary
Letter, addressed to a conscientious Clergy
man Of the Established Church of England,
which may he followed by other remarks or
the same subject, from the same pen.
We have the strongest desire to avoid ev'
cry thing, in the conduct of this paper, like
controversy; particularly of a religious or
der, and would at all times. wish to refrain
from publishing any thing that might hav
the slightest tendency to disturb the calme
feelings of any sect or individual, upon thi
subject In this letter we can see nothin
cxceptionable; but believe it, as we'll as on
or two more that may succeed it, will
read with interest and satisfaction by a
who may give them pcrusal; and we be
leye the reader will acknowledge them
be liberal, fair and candid appeal, to h
rational understanding.
1t is said, yea, currently rehorfed, that tn
Editor of the Gazette has SO far got the be
ter of the comtemht he frcfessed to feel f'
Mr.. Adams "hircling prints" and "hougl
presses" that he is about to present mi
mortal, from his '..friends in Susser," to M
Secretary Clay, to restore him to his legit
macy, and allow him again to ofhcate 1T
authority How unassuming What a MOI
est gentleman! After a series of assault
npon the administration, in which, for abu
hehas outdone eitherStephen Simpson OF in
Randolph, and alter heaping the most vir
lent epithets upon Mr.. Clay, for deceit, pr
fligacy and political treachery, he goes, lii
a relenting cur. with its tail between It's leg
crouches at his feet, and would fain lick t
hand that be but just snapped atii What
modest gentleman!
Pray, Mr.. Harker, who is to be the ho
orable bearer of your humble petitioas
Mr.. M'Lane, or My Clayton?
a gentleman in Wilmington, N. c. writ
20 his friend in New-York, under date of t
21st ut. that Mr.. Adams and his measul

Carolina; so much so that he will have II
