Byway Of preface to the Address Of the Editor OF
the Western Journal, printed at Pittsburg, the Ma
,onal Integencer, of yesterday, makes the follow
ing remarks.
We do not know when we have met with more
frank and honest avowal nf conviction OF error,
wrought bv the force fevidence and by reason and
reflection. than is contained in the following edito-
rial address, taken from late Pittsburgh paper. 1t
s t,,pcal of the reformation of public sentiment,
which is in rapid progress where the late alarming
deluson of the popular mind has most prevailed 1t
is the light of truth breaking through the mist OF pre-
iuice enlivenng and cheering the prospects before
u.s. The information from every part OF the country
is of the same complexion. We have just seen
letters from Kentucky and Indiana, which leaves no
reasonable room to doubt, that the whole vote of
both States will be given in favour of the reelection
Of Mr.. Adams We have seen many letters from
New York, which impress US with entire confidence
that Mr. Adams will receive twotblrds OF the votes
Of that State Being pressed for room, to day, we
defer, to another day, column or two OF extracts
of letters from different parts Of the country, which
contain satisfactory information in corroboralon OF
What we have stated of the rapid gain OF the present
Administration in the favour OF the People
The Editor of the Western, or Pttsburg Journ
al. has suffered the convictions produced by peru
sal of Mr. Clay's pamphlet, the letter OF Col. I.
II Rentnn one of the Senators Of the United States
from Missouri. and one of the most ardent support
ere of Gen. Jackson, &c. to have their just lnhu-
epce upon him. He hastens to acqult his con-
science, by awarding to Messrs Adams and Clay
tbe ;ustice which they merit. He believes g it any
friend of Gen. Jackson will give Mr.. Clay's Address
and the accompanying documents, calm and at
tentve perlsal. and then giveutterance to the unb
assed dictates 0f his conscience, he cannot buf con
cur with him in the sentiments he has expressed
Tn the State of Delaware there has not vet beer
found Jackson paper that would publish Mr.. Clay
Address One of them is too utterly abandoned
for any such purpose. Mr. Clay has been accuse'
month after month, and his defence embracing on
single subject is excluded-wit' what justice, un
der all the circumstances. let an impartial publ
determine. Another Jackson paper, OF which W
should hone better things, thinks ''thdt upon M
aphole, the book (Mr. Clay's pamphlet) IS eu'denf
oan;ast The author" But why not submit it to tn
public Does it operate against Mr.. Clay! ",
cuate it throughout the State, and let 1t answer IN
purposes of the Jackson party No ]us'ace as os"e
here--but a publication of it is urged upon the pa
tn ground that it is evidence against the author
Reader. do YOU believe that ''equal and exact Ju
tice,,-or even the affirmation that the" book IS ev
dence AGAINST its author''-will produce the publ
cation Of its Judgus .appella credat-raon ego.
The development from the Debate on Mr. Ch
toms resolutions had, also, its just effect on the mil
Of the Editor of the Western journal. And
comes to the conclusion that those who are SINGER
lviu favor ofthe American System, &c. will suppo
Messrs. Adams and Rush. We invite the reader
particular attention to this address.
Movements are making in New-York, preparato
TO a grand State Convention for the formation OF
Electoral Ticket favourable to the present \
tional Administration. The ' Lion OF the Yves
j. rousing, and the County of Monroe is now said
Nave 5000 majority in favour Of Adams and Nus
