The relief actWhen these Adams men get hold Of any
thing that they think they cam by the most violent dis'or
ton, apply 10 the disadvantage Of Gen Jackson they
harpng upon it until they disgust every body
They invent caumny after calumny, and them through
all the suices Of namy until hey deluge the land, and
withou; giving the food time abate, off ed
ton, revised and with large additions annoy the public
disgrace the county, and ruin their cause Bu, when
they imagine they have hoak upon which they hang
sanderous Of praise worthy act find they
ring all the changes from the lowest bass 70
the highest octave. Now they have got hold Of an act
Congress- passed for the relief Of the people If Florida
and they exnect convert into upon Jackso
conduct as Governor Of st territory But doing this
they seem forget, rather they suppose that the peu
pie do not know that James Monroe who made Gen. Jack
son Governor expressed tie unqualified appreciation
of his conduct and when jackson had determined to resgr
and resore the power with which he had been invested
that MIR. Monroe urged him 10 retain IL alleging that M
other man could have established the Jurisdiction Of thu
United over the people Of Florida, in SO short time
with as little trouble and efecnaiy as jackson ha
done Did not John q Adams respond this sentiment =
Thus then is with these men, in their anxiety TO desro
Gen jackson, they pursue that lay waste the in
,egry Of their own idol, make his opinions than
thing and give tie lie direct in many instances TO his as
ser,ions-and although they have laid claim to Mr. Mon
roe as member of their party, yet they would SO handle
this SUBJECT, make it upon him also, for thu
sake of effec,ing some wrong to Jackson
That they should attempt to ure MIR Monroe il
his retirement is be wondered at 1t probably b,
order Of Mr. Clay, Who has forgiven him for appoint
ing MIR Adams Secretary of State, which account Ii,
refused to become member Of MIR Monroes cabinet be
cause as he sad he would serve with the puritan
apostae Adams IN the struggles of their despair the,
are reckless of whom they nure destroy and cut
slay all round with the vain hope that in an ndscrimna
massacre Of reputation, they may perchance soil that
the peoples man.
But in order to understand this subject, it is only
sary to consider the character of the people, who jackson
was sent to establish republican government among
They the subjects Of Span had always been used
the most despoc mode of being governed the will oth
Captan General and Intendant of Cuba almost the
" law forms they had Of government it is true but thes
forms we're always made 10 bend to his will when caprc
dictated it, or worse motive prompted it. Raised perhap
not an hair above the inhabitants of old Spain in their ca
pabites of sppreciaiing the blessings OF tree govern
ment and many Of them averse altogether to being al
tached to the United States made much difficulty as the
could in the ncpient regulations for raising flag
them Under such crcums ances is il to be expected tn
mdness of our laws, aud the beauy of repubcansm
could be at once introduced AID respected! Anarch
would have been the rest of giving lawsto people VIII
knew nothing but slavery, you would to freemen, VIII
rlorv in the name Hence it that in of the ord
nances provisions are found suited to this meridian
but which were proper for tie time and the occasion au
cled to- AS soon however the inhabitants of Florida
being led on step by step acquaintance with the &c
MUS of our government and from the experience gained
BY feeling its benign influences. and by associating witt
the citizens of the sstes who had began to settle among
them they could not resist offering their unqualified ale
glance to it, and of the necessity or the reg
ulations which required first, to establish the SO
vernment ceased to exist-and it became obligatory oil
Congress pass act disannung those ordinances an
it very proper to call it an act for their relief
There is provision in of the ordinance
under consideration, which is perhaps the Gauss
of all the ire the tools of power evince on this sub
ject. That provision imposes tax of " 1tcenty
.fve dollars half yearly OH all Billiard Iables"-
When their idol has SO far given encouragement
