THE OPPOSITION.
From the National j

rum me NQIIOluf JOuTUUI.
The opposition to the present administration
was never SO numerous or powerful as it APP
peared; but now it is rapidly dwindling away.
and, from toe ridiculous and extravagant con.
duct Of the majority Of its members, it has be-
come rather source of amusement, than Of an.
noyance or apprehension. Rejecting men,
whatever their parlialities have been, have gen.
orally come TO the conclusion that ii is not only
their duty as citizens, but their best policy as
individuals, not to quarrel with the administra-
ton until they have some more substantial rea-
son than that Of mere dislike. 1t is true, that
the ranks of the opposition still contain some
able and influential men; but, if rightly consid-
cred, this fact is neither 10 be wondered at nor
deplored. There never was a government, from
the first Institution of bodies polite TO the pre-.
sent day, but what had its opponents; and an
enlightened lover Of his country might even be
alarmed If ours had none. Men are always cor.
rup,ible, if not always corrupt; it is absolutely
essential 20 the welfare Of community that
those in power, however pure and irreproacha-
Ole in their private or public characters, should
be subjected to severe and even Jealous scrut-
ny; and this scrutiny can never be 90 we'll per.
formed by friends as by enemies.
The present opposition is precisely of that
kind which will serve all the good purposes of
an opposition, without having the power to ef-

LITERARY BARGAIN.

When Fielding had finished his novel Of
Tom Jones, being much distre ssed, he sold it
to an obscure booksellerfor e5l. on condition Of
being paid on certain given day. In the mean
time he showed the manuscript, to Thompson,
the Poet, who was Immediately struck with
its great merit; and advised Fielding by all
means 10 get free from The bargain, which he
did without much difficulty, as the booksel.
Ter was not capable Of estimating the value of
his purchase. Thompson recommended the
work TO Andrew Miller, and the parties met at
tavern over beefsteak and a bottle. Miller,
began with saying, "Mr. Fielding, always de-.
termine on affairs of,his sort at once, and new
er change my offer. l will not give one far
thing more than two hundred pounds" "Tvo
hundred pounds" cries Fielding. EYES," says
the other, "and not one farthing more" Field
ing whose surprise arose from JOY, and not dis
appointment, shook him by the hand, sealed the
bargain, and ordered in two bottles Of wine
Miller got very large sum by the sale Of the
book. He at differen, times during his life.
assisted Fielding with 2sool, which debt he

From the National Journal.


The course which will be pursed this session
in relation to Internal Improvement, by those
who oppose the present Administration may be
looked upon as indicated BY the remarks which
were made on the subject of Mr. Wickliffe' s
resolution, calling for information from the War
Department as to the applications for surveys,
SC. which have been received. The resolution
offered by Mr. Rives, Of Virginia, last week,
referring it to the Commute of Ways and
Means to consider the expediency Of arresling
the appropriations for this object, was the COM
mencement Of the contest. To this we are
probably indebted for tbs gratuitous iniorma-
ton given by the Chairman Of that Committee
we should be glad 10 know if ii conveyed the
sentiments Of the Committee-that the state OF
the Treasury is such as to render it necessary
TO curb the expenditures for internal improve
ments. To that we are indebted for the move
ment of Mr.. Wiekliffe, justly designated by
Mr.. Cook as intended to "dig the grave OF in
terhal improvement" To that we are indebt-
ed for the homily given TO us by Mr.. Cambre-
leng on the commissions and revulslons Of Com
merce, aud the danger appropriations for in
ternal improvement, and as the plan OF opPosi-
zion grows into maturity, we shall be indebted
10 this same resolution for an analogous train OF
lamentations and warnings, all intended 10
check that system which, more emphdtically
than any other, may be termed popular, and
which rs but adapted 10 the development Of the
resources, and the consolidation Of the interests
of our extensive Union We shall have ocea-
si9s ~ mehts Evidence in itself Of the de,ermi-
nation Of the party opposed to the Administra-
ton 10 sacrifice the bes, interests and the known
will Of the people, TO their own private project
ofejecting Mr.. Adams at the end o. four years.
The ideas Of our correspondent seem to be
corroborated by the following extract of letter
from veteran republican, one who deserves
and has received the respect and confidence Of
all parties, and enjoys in the evening Of his life
degree Of public yeneration which is yielded
to but few even Of the best PATRIOTS:
"You see that Clinton is out against you and
US on Internal improvement Another G. has
cooled down, and probably will take stand
which will go to effect the obstruction Of what
he once so nightly pushed forward Will
Genera! JackSon'S FRIENDS generally act hls9 !
see many indications Of it. But is il possible
that the great cause of domestic industry and
internal Improvements shall be Quoted 10 make
way fer electioneering? Will Pennsylvania at
tach herself to the car of Virginia in opposi-
tion TO their great interests? have seen much
Of personal and political parties, and have Of
zen acted in them, though al prese do not
but never have seen stands taken which
thought So dangerous to the glorious success
Of our republican systems as some of those
now before me. 1t makes no odds 10 me who
is President, but first principles must not be
yielded TO the elevation or rejection OF any man.
