THE PRESCRIPTION.


Al last the Postmaster General, yielding TO the
opportunities with which he has doubtless been bcset
rom the moment OF his arrival at the Seat of Gov
eminent, has removed from Office ANDREW CoYLE,
me able, FAITHFUL and upright Chief Clerk i'm that
Oihcc, and has put IN his place OBAptAH r.. BRowS
Baptist Clergyman, who has for some years been
Clerk in the Office. Thus has Mr. BaowS
oesn rewarded and Mr. CoYLE punished for their
different opinions as to the Presidential candidates
at the last election. Ii the Caucus had desired sig
nay TO demonstrate the ruthless spirit which act,i-
ates IT no clearer proof OF IL could be furnished than
.his' Merit ana usefulness, associated in the same
INDIVIDUAL with true piety aud the purest morals are
no protection 10 him who hath dared TO dissa

Its victims TO worse than death-vcs worse--,o 500
their families almost literally perish for want without
the power TO give them bread. Mr.. BlRRY of him
self could not have had the heart to do this deed
The gloom which has already overspread this lately
hourshng City from the effects of this ,levastatn
policy will become yet darker II this removal is 10 be
the signal foG further prescriptions. Against Mr.
CoiLk, 1t Is needless TO add, after what we have
said not apretence OF charge of any official mis-
conduct can be alleged.
Another prescription. in the neigbbourino City of
Alexandria, has produced great excitement there
II Is that OF WILLIAM WEpDERRURN, Surveyor of
the Port In regard to this removal, the Alexandria
,razette asks-"For what was DIR. WEDDERBuRN
removed; Was II from Incompetence or inatten-
'tion: We dare them to the proof. They cannot
bring title of evidence to support the charge Ii
she has erred in the DISCHARGE of his duties the Gov
crnment has always been the gamer; for hesitate
mot TO say, and faithful officer never
"was employed. His letter of Dismissal contained
mot syllable of reason for his removal-we take
sit for granted therefore, that there was no such
reasons we have mentioned" The Gazette
adds, that the real for the removal of this
most worthy is that, being a connexiou by
marriage ofthe late Editor of the Alexandria Ga
zette he is supposed TO have obtained the office orr
glnaly through his influence! JAMES McGuIRE has
been appointed his successor.
we see that two more of Tie Custom house off
GERS at Boston have been removed and .that other
removals there and elsewhere promised or ex.
pected. The following paragraphs relate to the
prescription IN other cases:
