From the Boston Patriot,
MIR JEFFERSON.

NiR. EDIroR--I have observed with regret that
some of our public papers in high repue, have ia
ken liberties with the religious character OF this
great and excellent man, which, if unauthorized,
are unusily wounding to his fame and injurious to
the OF christianity. Ii is published to the
world that "therc is no certain proof that he credit.
ed the divine mission Of Jesus Christ" That |" had
this philosopher been favored in earlier life, with
the rational views of christianity, there is reason to
believe he would nnhesatingly have avowed his be-
lief in revelation These are strong insinuatons
that MIR. Jefferson was an inhdel in regard to the
au'henloity of revelation and the divine mission OF
Jesus Christ They go far 10 confirm the reports
so ndustriousy circulated by party spirit when Mr.
Jefferson was candidate for the Presidency OF the
Y. States The cry of Inhdelity'' was perpetual
ly sounded in the ears Of the people, and in the
minds Of mutitudes, it rooted prejudces against his
character, and against The political party who sup
ported him, which have never been removed. But
the chage and the insinuations Of n6delity have
never seen subsantiaed oy any thing like direct
evidence or even prnbaJlp evidence, although have
been diligent reader Of public papers and OF au
thors during more than thirty years Sir, solemn
y protest against both the charge and the insinua
on as groundless, and shall continue to do, until
some direct evidence shall have been produced to
prove the TACT From the TACT, admitting it to be
true, that MIR. Jefferson has never given certain
proof that he credited the divine mission OF Jesus
Christ" there is not even presumpuve evidehce
that he was not christian and believer in revela,
tion BY mode Of reasoning like that. the charge
Of in6dehy might be proved against nineteen tven
,ieths of all the Inhabitants in chfistendom have
been credby informed, that whenever opportunity
favored, Mr.. Jefferson constant attendant on
christian worship in the Episcopal form, and con-
tributed literally 10 its support assert that few
| christians have given evidence OF character more
pure in morals than his, of a spirit more perfect
Iy in concert with the example and spirit of the
great Founder Of the christian system. Why then
this nsinuaton Of "inhdeity" unless to make good
an old story, and to falsehood that cannot
bear the light Respecting the immortal Wash
ing,on it might be said. that there is no certain
proof that he credited the divine mission OF Jesus
