THE CAIUMNIATOR DEFIFD

Some weeks past, certain questions were pro-
pounded TO me in paper called the " Republican
Citizen" of this place, to wit Whether + did NOT
say had received letters from Mr.. Adams, re-
guessing private interview Whether nc did not
ask me 70 vote for him as President, &c? all OF
which have been published. On the day those
questions appeared, promptly denied ever having
had any communications with Mr.. Adams, on the
subject to which they referred. This was in
duced to do, from a conviction that was bound TO
do il as an act Of sheer justice to Mr.. Adams Here
the matter ended, so FAR as the public were con-
ccrned. ltthcn became personal affair, between
the author and myself, 10 which the public could
feel no interest. ] called for the proof aud the
author. The proof has not vel been giDen. The
questions were repeated, and 4 was told their con-
tents would be supported by certificate from Dr.

oil Doctor Zol'ikoffer could be sustained by other
respectable witnesses-we say il again--we have
the personal assurance Of gentleman Of respecta-
blhty, that every word Of what is alleged the
statement OF MIR. Warfeld, is true-that he can
testify to it, but that he has desire appear in
the prints as witness. on account of personal
feeling for Mr. WarGeld." Now, call on this
respectable gentleman to state what he has to say
on this business; give gar6ied quotations from,
certificates. Let us have what he has to say his

DIR. Zoilikolfer's statements, by which mean the
tohoie OF the original certificate, and call also
for that which has been literally offered-to

AN0rxIfIR REPORT,


BoSToN, June l2.-The Grape. Coleman. arriv.
ed yesterday, from ST. Salvador, reports that En-
gi>h packet brig arrived there the 4th May, in
Tour days from Rio de Janeiro, bringing intelli-
gence that the Emperor had refused to ratify the
treaty with the Buenos Ayresns, and that all hope
of peace at present was at end''
Extract Of letter from Lima, to gentleman in
this city, dated 10th March. via. Panama
brought by the Erandywinc.
Mr.. Cooley death. and Mr.. Tudor's departure
tor Brazil, are events very deeply regretted by A.
mericans. The former was a very amiable man
and believed to possess superior taents-we buri-
Ell him on the barren, sandy island ofSan Lorenzo,
which forms the southern side Of the harbor Of Cal
lao. The Priests refused to have him interred in
consecrated ground without the payment of an e.
nornous sum. because he died hereto, sltho'
they have carefully disseminated among the peo-
pie the belief that he wished to become catholic,
but his countrymen prevented it. 1t is by such
fslsehoods and every species of deception that these
men, most of whom are nuoed for their vices, en-
deavour to sustain the lettering fabric of their n
dolatry; but many OF tho more enlightened inhab
itants OF the country, am informed, possess
ell OF very liberal sentiments shis subject And
already proposition has been made to the Con
gees TO tolerate other reigions:-The motion was
iost-the President Of the Congress, very supc-
rior man, Luna PiEarro, being PRIEST as well as
many other Of the members; but the fact Of the in
PRODUCTION OF such plan Is proof Of the progress OF
libe, al principles.
The new Constitution, rather the old one a.
mended. Is to be proclaimed the 2@th. The
changes that have been made am not aware Of
but learn generally that it is of a more liberal
cast The President, Gen. Lemar, is very popu.
lar. and the country l told is quiet as il re-
volution was unknown to the people. But it Is
thought that such diversity OF interests tastes and
character, must have 1--WE more conv ulsions
before perfect combination can he effected. Gen
Sucre was very unpopular in Bolivia. and 1t was
thought he would be compelled to retire. The
Columbian troops were only waiting for transports

The GOOD MATCH.

If the promotion of happiness between
two human beings be considered neccs-
sary to constitute good match, then no
speculation on earth is SO uncertain as
the matrimonial speculation. There can
never be precise rules laid'down by which
we may estimate the qualities Of mind, /,
and ascertain how any two souls when
compounded and united into zone flesh !"
will barmonize together. And, worse still
there can be no precise limits, assigned
to the passions and whims, no bounda-
ries to prevent their cIashing, where we
can say "hitherto will they come, bat no
farther"
A man may buy house, or farm, or
cotton mandatory, and if he be a iu-
dicious man, and examine thoroughly,
and calculate the cost, and consider all
the local circumstances, he may feel
