FOR OUR NEIGHBOUR.

"A mr. neighbour, the Patriot, may not easily
snd the act Of Congress passed to RELIEVE Tue
neonle of Florida from the operation OF General
.ons ordinances, we take the liberty to say that

or. D. D. Tompkins Vice President, and James
Monroe President-and no man in congress saying
NM to it. After the Colonel has read 1t at his lei
eure-we would suggest for his private meditatons
,he following remarks--taken from the late papers
Now upon this act of Congress, we would ask one
or two questions.
/. What sort of ordinances must those made by
cavornor Jackson have been to call for rapid an
;nternoston of the authority of Congress TOR their
repeal g., 1,oL
b What sort Of government must Gov. Jack
aon,s government in Florida have been, to make IT
necessary for Congress not only to repeal his ordi
nsuces. hut to enforce the repeal by threatening
with fine IND Imprisonment any one who should at
temnt after the first of June 1.-THE earliest day at
which notice could be given in Florlda) to carry
them into cHect4 !,
q Did Congress know so well the lawess and
ncnvernable character of Gen. Jackson, that they
believed he would not respect the laws IT not &C.
connanied with fine andi imprisonment
a What sort Of an exactlon OF the PEOPLES money
Nv Gen. Jackson must that have been which was oil
;ns,ice. to direct it to be made good to every indi-
syiIua out of the Treasury Of the United States
S. Was not Governor Jacksons' ordinance about
naturalization, an ordinance by which, IN PLAN and
nross violation Of the treaty, which is the supreme
law Of the land am in open defiance and contempt
ofthat law he required the inhabitants to come be-
fore one of his officers, and each of them to pay him
three dollar. and fifty cents, or about that sun, un
der some other pain or penalty sufficient to enforce
| the extortlons
6. Is man, whose acts during his brief govern
ment of Florida thus deservedly stigmatlzed
BY the Representatives Of the people OF the United
States as awless extortion, which the treasury OF
tAe United States was bound to make good to the
sufferers a fit man to be Governor or President OF
! Ne United States? If he could nut expound SIN
Gle treaty will he be able tn expound the constlt'i-
ton laws and all the treaties OF the United States!
These questions put in sober seriousness and
! thav deserve an attentive examination. From the
time Of this experiment, in Florida, General Jackson
was never employed again. JEFFERsoN.
