differ in more respects from one another than. nor.
haps, in any other State. Some are satisfied win
the Administration and its policy generally Some
form just estimate of the men, but do not ancv
all the measures of the National Government am,
some do not profess nor feel any great respect for
either, but prefer them vastly to the election Of
General Jackson. These facts, and others of .
similar nature, are manifested by the proceedings
of their county meetings, and the correspondence
of distinguished individuals, now made public.
Though they differ in sentiment as TO the present
order of things, there is something in their views
approaching very nearly to uniformity, in oppOsj
tion to the promotion of the General to the presi
dency; fact sufficiently explanatory Of the grounds
on which It calculated that all is not fixed sure. and

minion.
Many of the Virginians utterly unable to dis
cover what the Nation, and the State of Virginia in
PARTICULARS to gain by the proposed change O
men. They cannot comprehend how Andrew
Jackson is qualified for the post to which he aspires
even admitting that he never had been guilty of the
various acts which are recorded against him. They
cannot understand what has transpired to place Mr.
Adams last in their esteem, when he held the next
place after Mr.. Crawford at their last election
But, however they may differ in other respects
they view the elevation Of the General as calam-
ty, in its various bearings, which ought 10 be de
precated, and which they are resolved, as far as
depends upon them, to avert by the use of all hon
durable means. These men are not to be consid
cred, in all respects, Administration men, but Anti
jackson men.
The most distinguished citizens Of that State are
among this number, though they have, as all men
ought to have, due regard for the Generals mill
tary services.
II orH should always be remembered, that tber4
are a fezy very prominent individuals, in diferen
