on "a former OCCASION to General Jackson and
his supporters) \ few years ago. and who was so
sic calumnator Of the Hero of New Orleans,
as Mr.. Harker? What paper exhibited such a
rpckIessness Of decency and truth, when speaking
Of him. as did the Delaware Gazette ? BY it, he

The honor and safety of their party, to oppose.
Now. this same party, is called upon by this same
Gazette to support this same most Objectionable
man! Aud whya Because Mr.. Harkcr really
believes the General possesses capacity and
ituess' for the office Of President! Because he
sincerely believes that his election will be fur the
general interest Of the Federal party in Delaware
Not at all. But simply because n few men to
whose will aud wish Mr. llarker must bend, have
been led to believe that they shall participate in the
{" oayes and fishes of office, in the event of the
Generals success. The tempting bait has cau,-
ed them to sacrifice their consistency and they are
now cIlmorous in their praises o! a man whom they
once styled ga military despot," and active in
their endcavors to promote cause which they once
INST siolcntly opposed Are such men fit to be
trusted Are they acting from correct motives?

We would inform Mr.. Spencer, the Editor OF

given to making charges against the characters OF

an opponent, and he will resort to the most dshon-
