we couiu not nclp remembering JunluS caution %
Woodiall, when opening the Enquirer OF yesterday,
we found his Excelency had determined TO write no
more but had engaged second fiddle TO finish tho
controversy for him. This is the most judcious step
that Dir. Giles has been guilty of taking for a long
timer and this we have heard it limited was forced upon
him by the obstinate circumstances oftwo or three
Che Elite. So, His Exccllcncy writes no moro for
The public prints What loss TO the reading part OF
the community. What succ edaneum can the Enuui-
rcr supply for the loss Of copos popusr and sci-
nutihs writer!
The writer who has taken up The cudgcs for His
Excecncy, doubtless upon the understanding that it
was impoc for the Governor appear so frequently
IN the newspapers, begins his observations with this
remarkable asserton---''Thc administration presses
fearing doubt the DISASTROUS effect of this disclosure
Upon Mr. Adams-& fc9 ring it with good reason have
cndeavorcd TO conteract HAT effect By the abuse of
Gov. Giles" &c.
We know not precisely, who it is that Mr.. Giles
has got to write for him, but in one quality which
greatly distinguishes his Excellcncy, disingcnuous-
ness, he is the Governor full match 1t is ridiculous
TO say, that the administration presses feared the CT
feet of this ate he calls it little bcfore disclosure
Ills reasons for joining the Repu Icons-upon Mr.
Adams. These reasons have been known to the
world for 20 years. Why fear them now. Mr. Giles
discovered no secret, for that and could be no Sc
cfet which was known tn every intelligent politician
IN the country-and had been known for twenty
years. Has it not been always understood TINT Mr.
Adams assigned reason for cooperating with Mr.
Jefferson, his belief that Reasonable views were en-
tcTtained by certain leaders Of the Essex Junto
class of Fedoraiists: Unqucstionaby it has 1t is
therefore grattous to say that Mr.. Giles has made.
any disclosure, and silly to say that that imaginary
discovery has alarmed his friends fer s effects upon
the prospects of Mr.. Adams. SO far is this from be-
ING true, that had that disclosure had time to operate
throughout the U. S--could the people every where
have seen Mr.. Giles deccitfli and jesutcal conduct
towards Mr.. Adams IN It's true colours we as O Cor
ton of the friends of the administration, do not end
have not doubted, that it would have worked most de-
cidcdy towards his reelection.
Very artful attempts making to identify Gov.
Giles with the Jackson party and. fecing-to repre-
sent him as the peculiar object OF vengeance to the
Administration party, because soy his apoorists he
has been the means of defeating Mr.. Adams in Virr
MA! Absurd and npudont assertions. We know
thht at the last Session. this feeling was so far from
havng an existence. that the friends OF the Admins
tration very generally, wished Nr. Giles TO continue
Governor from the belief that his inveterute itch for
newspaper notorioty, and the malignant passions
which his lucubrations displayed had wrought ind
would further work, injury 10 his party. We know
That many warm and intelligent Jacksonians consider
GU him as milestone around their necks end yvcrn
anxious to remove him from station which tbev
Thought ne had 6sgraccd and which they believed he
was occupying to the injury Of their favorite cause
Vhe disgust nom, at Nr. Giles is universal In tho
urnaoeress conversations we have heard on the sub
ject of his suppressing lIr. Jcierson's letter Of
the 95th, and publishing that of the Goth, IL on
position to the Will of the tuthor liz both cases
dpd for the sole ard dishcuor-1bc purnos, of de-
prving man of testimony necessary and intended
10 eXculpate him to the world, have heard bt one
single opinion among men of all politics. His impu-
deuce 10 excusng himself by representing Mr.. Jcsr-
snns first letter as dong-hs cfroutcry in after
yards charging others with having made that mDuta-
Jon upon Mr.. Jefferson-bis dishorourable denial Of
having written lotcrsI 20 Mr.. Adams, which it
was Impossible he hed forgotc1-tc spirit of rancor-
ons and causccss hatred which he discovers towards
Nj Adams tbroushout-the petty nlcndscity, I'm
worthy truant school boy, much more the Governor
OF Nirgiuia--al these circumstances have ins1.rcd
lDs community with more contempt than rs gcr be-
fore exhibited towards any The fcelinr is IN
mixed. II is pure unsdulterated conempt--not even
dashed with grain of respect for Mr. Giles TALENTS
for they too have fed with every thing else that
could command respect.
This 10 Tie man, whom the writer in the ENQUIRER
Pretenls has carried Virginia for Jackson and is hat
Cd because feared, by the friends of the hdninistra
tion. IlIe prat:lc! This wrctched old rnsanthrope
who is toe laughing stock Of the Publc-.hc scorn
" the jest oftll parties from Maine to Georgia eay
eP Worse than fudge. This writer may ncvcrthe-
less, succeed in his object of saving Mr. Giles from
assured rustication next winter, by rcprcsontino,
his recollection necessary to the honour and groti
tode o. the Jackson party. BE it So If weare not
Sadled with Gov Giles we arc threatened witt, ano
