You say. General, that you will no, aoeuSe n' Of bolt

tho matter by I'll sisins tbs, We supported Mr. Cr.wiorl
instead Of Mr. Adam, Tor the Presidency. WEI are ohl''
gei to YOU, General, for ~alluaing to ihi' faot-iuf II has
been q thousand times over and over admitted by oil par
ties, that had The Democratic Republicans. Of the North
rallied upon Mr. Crawford instead Of Mr. Adams, whose
polite, then a, now were considered unstable, the coun.
try would not have been subjected 10 such turbulent
scene. Of political strife a, ha, since been witnessed. The
political character nor the talents Of Mr. Crowforl were
never questioned by any enc. lie stood em;ucntly high

ed to the principle, which guided frmsr administrations.
MIR Adam. having succeeded TO the Presidency, our
course wa, to scquic.ce in hi. @jm ini,tra,ion il We were
convinced Of its correctness. The struggle at that time
wa, no, a, now. Whether Mr. Alan, or Mr. Crawford
was elected was not supposed would mako any material
difference a, to the general policy OF the al "ini,,ra,ion,

Republicans Of the Northern and Middle States, he was
put up by them for a second term. We supported him
but he wa, defeated. Andrew Jackson succeeded him,
.ud every body know. how and by what mean,-and
Gen. Kellogg rs well u, the editor Of the Herald, was
opposed to him md ",he pnf,y" which now misrulc the
country. But the General seems now TO think different
ly on thi. subject. He has left the main body Of his po'
iitical ritnds and gone over 10 the Dutch Hence, VIC
do not perceive that the General thu. far has made out
tina, we have even bolted once. II il he that has bolted.
The General alludes to the election Of MIR Jefferson
and the Base calumnies thrown out by the federal prints
at that time against him, but for what purpose we are
unable TO perceive. without il is 10 shew that he himself
was an adherent 10 Mr. Jefferson, which nobody ever dis
pu,ed. The subject in dispute is whether the General
adhere,, to the same principles aud same party. Wecon
teud he ha. fallen out by the way, aud shall here leave
this matter for The pnblic TO determine.
p, The General comes to the conclusion. after abiding
to the above events that it il the editor of,he Herald tina
b IA. deserted his party and not he, himself. lie then zoe,
u on to tell US to what party VIC belong, and e1claim',-
"look around you aud you will find every old weather
beaten Hartford Convention man in the region at your

Wing friends, smoke your pipe, talk politics, tell s,oric.
and SO on.
You call the Wing party the complaining party" aut
: 'toutly proclaim that you do not belong 10 that party
Now, General, this is all fudge. Have you not occasion
ally m dc the most bitter complaints against the mea
sures Of the present administration Have you { rgot

ri terly too, because your friends, the Wings, did not max

since' Have you not been loud and frequent in you
complaints because you could not bring yourself NOR
into public favor: Have you not complained of IN
i, naughty Antimssons on account Of Their prosci iptive pol

we think when you come to remember all these com
plants you must admit that you also, belong to som
complaining party"
You complain, General, also, that we have at our con,
mand a Printing Press and you have not, and hence 70,
seem to think ii somewhat uncivil TO have your poLtics
