But surely his straightforward, ndcrende,
course will not be objected to. On tie contrary
his scorn OF eiectioneering arts ought 10 induce
a stu! higher regard for him The best test 0,
a mans principles, is his conduct. Ii his pra.
'ess'ons and his practice correspond, there is no
reason TO doubt his sincerity. Buff they dona
corresponds, we think his professions are ne,
worth straw This is good rale. Mr.. Adams

that profession. He is friend to flep discus

men we know OF, (and one of whom, from lhe

We would name, if he were aiye,) a republican

man deserves to fill the high Office to which he
has been called by his country.
