Now good reader, let US rccur back las Judge

When 1t vas remembered that by the ArstoCrat
&c party, the General means the old Federal perty-

see an individual thus situated assuming exclusive
orthodoxy denounclng men who are better and
older Republicans than himself, because they hap
pened not to prefer Gen jackson for President
we cannot but esteem it perfectly fair, nay right and
proper, TO remind him. that he himself stands i, noo
