TJ The suspicion is current at Washington, that
yiglant espionage, is exercised the person and
movements of the President, by certain of his palace
ninions extending especially to the letters and news
papers, which come his address through the post
Office. The motive is imagined to be, to prevent the
of persons who might give him honest and disn
teresed advice and the perusal of articles which might
have the effect of throwing the old gentleman into
of his paroxisms of uncomfortable passion when labor
ing under which, he is known be capable of the high
est degree of rashness and extravaganza The indi-
vdual who acts the principal sentinel has been even
designated by public opinion at Washington, We do
not Youch for the accuracy of these suspicious but
have little doubt of their truth The Telegraph wit
ness whom we presume the public will consider both
competent and credible. That paper says:
swell may the Sentinel express doubt whether
it will ever reach the eye Of the President Among
the articles resored to by those who have surround
ed him [,he Presidcnt] and abused his name, IS an
organized plan of nterceptng every thing, when
they believe will open his eyes to thrir practices"
We rather disposed to approve ftbe Precaution-
a1y measures adopted for keeping the President in
state Of salutory GOODNESS.
