AN OBSERVER.

The following article appeared in the
Republican of last week in answer to one
in this paper, respecting the recent won-
derful reformation of that distinguished
print. 1t seems to have been written in
the true spirit of Jacksonism.
"We are confident that few more
such pieces as the false and scurrilous
article headed GA SOMERSET" and pub
lshed in the " Herald of the Times" " of
yesterday, will soon convince the public
that the Herald is not (if the Rhode-Is-
land Republican was once,) conducted
"in decent and manly style" We
should feel ourselves debased in STOPPING
to answer such spiteiul, though puerile
effort to excite popular prejudice.
elf this paper has erer been abusive
and vulgar, it was at a time when not un-
der the exclusive control of the present
proprietor The blood and carnage tick
et-the drunken militia mans toast-and
several articles equally calculated to in
jure the party, were inserted against his
wish, to please certain gentlemen who
now control the Herald of the Times.
The freemen of Newport and of
Rhode-lsland are not to be imposed upon
by an attempt to I'M ure us, so malicious,
so evidently the eilusion of chagrin, and
so manilestly made for party purposes
merely"
If any reasonable man can point out to
us, where the words scurriIous, spiiefuI,
and mdhcious," arc applicable to the ar
ticle published in our last paper, we would
willingly make all honorable amends for
the gross msdemeanor. Any one would
suppose from the spirit and wa,,nh of the
above article, that we had, IN reality,
opened a battery Of ABUSE towards
that paper, never before equallcd, be-
cause it had seen fit to espouse the cause
Of Jacksonism. What we said of that
paper, was, in truth, merely reiterating
what has been said in relation to it by the
Jackson men, thousands of times. There
never was an epithet to be found, bad
enough, in their estimation, to apply to
this same "Rhode-b Island Republican,"

MAJ. BULL.--But very short time
since, we were told by Maj Bull, per-
sonally, that he didnot trouble himself al
all about politics--that he had other things
to take up his attention, SC. sc. Last
Saturday evening, at the National Re-
publican caucus, held at the Cour,
House, Maj. Bull, (tho' not ofthc number
who were inriied to meet, was present, s
was busily engaged with pencil and pa
per, in one of the window seats of the
Representatives Chamber, in the pre-
sence Of great number of Frcemcn,
taking down notes, whilst the Hon. Mr.
Pearcc and other gentlemen addressed
the meeting. Now we should be glad to
know, if Maj. Bull does not trouble him
self at all about politics, for what purpose
did he attend caucus--to which he was
not 'nr'ied or even erpected--and employ
himself during the whole evening, in the
way aforementioned? Perhaps the
Republican will give us some light upon
the subject tomorrow.
Herald of the times. [volume] (Newport, R.I.) 1830-1846, 1831-04-06

We select the following article from
the llallowell Advertiser, as being par
ticularly applicable to our paper at this
time.
BoRRowING PAPERS. The conduct of
some with regard to this subject is de-
serving the scvcrest reprehcnsIon. What
KIND OF AN idea ofjustlce have those who,
by borrowing a newspaper, avail them
selves of the labors Of the Editor and
Printer and paper-makcr, without return
ing an equivalent? Every man who
wishes to read paper ought to take it,
and pay for it, and thus help support it.;
and more especially paper, that costs
so little as this. Any one ought to be a
shamed TO think of borrowing periodi-
cal that costs but a dollar or two year,
which is hardly two or five cents a week.
Yes any one, without exception. The
press is public good, without which the
nations now enlightened would be barba-
rians; and every individual in the com
munity ought to do something towards its
support, the same as he contributes to the
support of any other public object
Each one should indeed do no more than
his proportion, according to his MEANS
But every one should do something -
Now choose your paper, but be sure and
patronize some one. Those who prefer
some others to this, ought to take that
one. But those who approve of this,
should take it, and borrow it no longer,
by which borrowing, they withhold from
us our just due. We hope that those
who have heretofore been in the habit of
borrowing this paper, will stop that unjust
habit, and subscribe as they should do. -
Now is favorable time. A new volume
has Just commenced; and we hope soon
to receive the names Of these our bor-
rowers, as honorable Subscribers.

ledge, either "spitefaIly," or "mahcious
ly," towards the Republican, at any time
nor have we ever felt chogrined by any
course that paper has thought proper tc
pursue, since we were concerned in it,
Buff the foregoing article was not
written to produce the effect the writer
has endeavored to make it appear the
article in this paper was intended to pro-
ducc, we are not capable Of constituting

five did not state facts, we were mis-
informed. We were told by more than
one, and we had even seen it in print, in
Providence paper, that the proprietor
had disposed of his interest in the estab-
lishment to the Jackson men, and was
merely to act in future as printer of the
paper for them. But we now learn (and
we readily correct the ialsehood, as II Is
termed) that instead of the types and
press having been sold the proprietor has
ONLY sold his control of the paper; there
by obligating himself to publish such
matter as may best meet their views.
About this we think there can be no mis-
take, as we were informed of the fact, by
one of the proprietor's" own confden-
tial friends. Presuming these then to be
the facts, would it not be gratifying to
know who will hereafter be responsible
for the matter that goes into that paper
and who is actually to control it,
We ask these questions not merely for
our own information, but for the informa-
ton of the public, who are quite as much
interested to know by whom the control
Of that old established journal, will
hereafter be assumed. What is meant
by "certain gentlemen who now control
the Herald of the Times we should like
to be more particularly informed. If the
writer supposes, that this paper is underline
influence or control of any other person
than the publisher" he is mistaken /;
and if he has any doubts about that, or if
any of his friends have any, they are at
Liberty to spend week, or fortnight, in
our office, and satisfy themselves by
whom this paper is controlled. They will
be sure to find us here.
In reference to the Republican, we
would merely ask, if Mr. Read has not
sold his control in that paper, (admitt,ng
that he has not, whether if what now
goes into it, is congenial with his wishes?
Ifevery thing is now conducted agreeable
to his wishes, there will be no fear, even
if he should come in another shape by
and by, of his telling US that certain
things were inserted when the Republi-
can was not under his exclusive con-
troll" but merely published to please
somebody else.
