me detection oil persons engaged in manufacture
ing or passing spurious money, in imitation Of sis
Ver coin, which are extensively circulated in some
oil the western states, and which, there is reason
to suppose, will be gradually Introduced into o.Ler
parts OF the United States. Two of these dollar.,
which were received in Nashville, and which are
supposed to have been fabricated in Arkanssw.
have been examined at the mint Tho value oS one
OF them was ascertained to be 40 & the other 81 Sa
cents. The Director OF the Mint, in his repcr,.
remarks, thas :" the manner In which these tour.
teriets are executed, render them extremely mis-
chievous IN our currency. BY chemical pro-
cess the external peliicie is made 10 assume the
appearance OF good silver, or rather to he really
good-better, il may be, than standard, 60 that
even an experienced eye could not detect the
fraud by Inspecting the external surface merely"

No man Of the day in which he lived, under
stood human nature better than Mr.. Jefferson
surely none had studied the character of the arts
tocraey more closely than he. Hence in his las,
letter, he said that they considered themselves
oo'' pooteu ana spufTeu, ready TO ride upon tho

What else could induce complaint at the &c
movai Of Charles ]. Nourse from an Office oil faip-
ed by gross subserviency to tho Coalition and a.
the expense OF one OF the most gallant officers OF
r the late army. The only wonder about the case
OF MIR. Nourse IS, that he should have been PEP
United to remain single hour in Office un,,e =
the present Executive,
But, MIR. Richard Henry lee, tie grandson q
Gen. Lee, has been removed - Wondrous .
GsaI ct no Erc
us, that En- Lee was appointed by Mr.. Adams In
Ffofnary last, as the reward Of his partisan
services; and that to make room for him, the son
OF ons OF the most gallant officers of the revolt
tonary army, who had discharged the duties " i;h
great hdeli'y, and whose earnings are the CHIEF
maintenance OF a family OF orphans, was put aside
he tears and distress Of the widow and crpliaus
the zea, fidelity, and faithful discharge of public
duties, weighed nothing with the late admisistra-
tion, when put into the scale against an arisiocra;
ic partisan Of MIR. Adams. And when, we wouli
ask, was MIR. Gales known TO complain of .anv
removals or appointments made by Mr.. Adams;
But Is not the whining Importantly of the COZ
ition one OF the strongest Qualifications Of the DO.
hcy OF the present Executive? BY the policy Of
our laws entails, that strong pillat Of British aris-
tocracy, were broken down. The nature Of ouy
institutions gives to the property Of the country
Tree, active and wholesome circulation. So sho,ill
1t he with the Offices. Break down the barrier
which the incumbent aTistocracy would raise be.
tween the Offices and the people-let il be known
tha' the people Nciu the controlling Influence
and intelligence, virtue, HONOR and ublic service
oil the living incumbent will bs substituted e.;
those OF departed ancestors.
We hear now of but little else DIAN that NJ,
such an one has been twenty five or thirty yesrn
IN oihce Is there one Of these .fiiogendftof5
who would not, il required have entered inf,
bonds TO have reliDGuished all claims upon pos.
session for one third Of the time? Bet those who
are in Office discharge their dutios With more q
detHy, and live within their salarics-takns care
TO lay up something for old age and we will have
more independence, rsoye virtue, and less crins.

4 But the people understand perfectly we'll t;e
cause OF all this clamor abou; prescription Who
IS 1t that clamorsare they no, the par,isans OF Mr.
Clay! Is not Mr.. Clay resolved upon placing his
own Par'isans in Officer Did not Mr.. Letcher and
his other organs openly proclaim that doctrine on
the boor OF the House Of Representatives This
camor, then, is nothing than the Sugle note
by which Mr.. Clay a." declares war at The out
set, and is intended the raliyne word of HIS
desperate postisGns. win Mr.. Clay pledge him

what face can his partissns rail at vhanges ncces
