From tie Charleston Ciiy Gazette.
The reply oil the Hon JONATHAN RoBRRTs TO a
communication from CHANDLER PRICE. ESQ Chairs
man. and JAMES HoLGATE and HENRY HoRY, Esqrs
Secretaries of a Committee of superintendent and vi
giIance tor the city and county of Philadelphia upon
The subject OF the next election for the Presidency of
the United States, is a brief but unanswerable stale.
nent Of the objections OF its amiable aud dgniGed au-
thor 20 the proceedings of that Committee. SINH! al
experiment TO tha lately witnessed in this city has
been attempted in Philadelphia, by HE advocates of
Cen JACKSON, and circulars forwarded to various in
lIuenai individuals OF the State of Pennsylvania ex-
Pressve of the views and liInents OF projectors
and soliciting their cODcurrLEee and support. What
the contents OF these arc, we of cannot state
with precision; but may presume them, rom tie reply
OF Mr. ROBERTS, TO be of similar character to the
communications which have from time TO time been adj
dressed to the citizens of Charleston repIce with vague
and unsubantated charges against the administrations

and rational deductions. Gen. JACKsoN's high and
deserved military reputation; his great nav invaIua bic

most alarming difficulty and danger 10 the counlry and
The claims which both urge upon the gratitude and ad,
inuaon OF his countTymen admitted 10 the fullest
extent; notwithstanding the gratuOus assumption OF
his fitness To discharge the highest civic fucons and
the obligation of the people to besow upon him the
inquest CIVIC station of the republic are clearly and ir-
refragatly Teiu;cd. At the same time the superor
qraliGDAtio of Br. ADAMS are insisted upon NH a
beraiity OF retort, drectuess Of testimony and q
precision of argument which have seldom seen
eqnoci The reference too, TO his private biography
prior to the late Presidential contest; TO the CIR
cumstauccs accompanying his election and The forrr,a
lion Of his cabinet; and to Tie liberal AMI Identified

INC die CiaSes OF corruption, OF Ycnav and of in
trgue whci' have so busily and tudos!v been proga

by their uuthnking adherents. Let it be rccoleccd
moreover as an evidence f the impartial obs ervatioa
Of Mr. RoEEErs, that he comes from the ranks nf an
