To the following article from the New YORK
Commercial Advertiser we invite the attention
of our readers. We ask them 10 read the letter
of the reformed Frenchman, and then to turn TO
their own country and busl. for the parallel in
RepubGcau America. We confess when We see
such exhibitions of royal tyranny, and repub.
can prescription along side Of each other, We fee
Inundated. Have the French Ministry copied
after the example of our Executive? Is it i'll
tended to introduce JackSonisn into consttu
,ional monarchy? We shall see. Sir Robert
Peel boosted not long since in the House of Com
mons, that he was far behind Gen. Jackson in
his prescription. Brauo!

sentence of the Executives inaugural. and with
no apology. They were only told that though
they had been faithful servants, and had no. re-.

necessary to put somebody else in their places,
to preserve the harmony of the Cabinet and Il.
