A letter from Mr.. Po1NDExrER, re-
lerred to lately, has been published, in
which that gentleman expresses himself
pretty plainly on the subject ofparty po-
litics. We cannot see with what proprie-
ty the Jackson presses claim him as O
jackson Senator, when he SAYS:

sen lends his ear too readily to indivi-
duals near his person, who are incom-
petent to advise him, and unworthy of
public confidence; they sometimes lead
him into errors, which no one deplores
more than l do, because they operate a.
gainst the cause which l have warmly
espoused, and tend to bring into power,
men whose principles l cannot approve.
Such men speculate upon the capital of
the cold Hero" without paving inter-
est, and it will be well, if they do not
exhaust the principal before tho end of
his term"
