Posi- master General, 10 have been add essed to
that officer by Mr. B through public print,
and they therefore regard il as an appeal by Mr.

Observation-Disclosures LAngdon, Editor
the Xenia Gazette, (a Jackson paper,) thus
expresses his disapprobatlon of the course
pursued by the present administration. Such
conduct refec the highest credit upon his
honesty and candor.
81 must now canddly confess that have
thus far, been much di appointed in the admin
istration. The ndiscrmlnale removal OF pub
lie officers men long tried and OF good standing,
Tor no other reason than because they did not
think General j Jackson better qlailhed 10 uls
charge the duties oiPresident than Mi. Adams,
and placing in their stead men, some OF whom
within the sphere Of my observation, hare not
even common honesty to recommend them,
has convinced me that private feeling and re-
sentiment, not public good, we're the guiding
principles of the administration. The history
OF all goyernme nts. both church and state, have
proved satisfactorily 10 my mind, that 10 dI-
reclion ofafairs can, neithe; should succeed,
the object OF which was to stife public opinion
by system Of proscrp ion. When Pres
iient OF the United States comprumts the Dig
n'ty OF the high Off 20, by using IL as machl"e
TO crafty personal feeling by making ii az en-
gIne Tor individual oppression he ceriait ly
much mistakes the character of the people, i
ne expects 10 be susi AIMED. Aud when public
opInlon sanctions the prescription of man, fot
thinking, acting and exercising he right Of
suffrage honestly and independently, then, in
my opinion, will the republic have very tar pas
sed the meridian Of her existence. SO far rs
ten. Jackson has adopted this course in his
administration, so far must his conduct he dis
appreciated by every unbiased & correct think
ing man SO far at Leaf he meets my humble OPP
position.
