THE ELECTION,

MEN AND MEASURES. This is the Motto
Measures, aad moi men, is a sound poliu
cal maxim, and will be applicable to the
latter part OF this piece, though not SC
appropriate to the thought which | am
Just now about to express.
1t is not very common practice to elect
men with reference 10 specific measures,
nor is 1t always practicable. In many ca
ses, measures, not thought of previous TO
an election, are adopted afterwards, wheth-
er proper or improper. Hence the expe.
diency, nay, the necessity, of electng
men capable of Judging correctly, and
disposed to decide conscientiousIv. in anv
emergency However guarded the Con-
slitullon' or however vigilant the people
OF any republic, some latitude of discre-
ton to Legislator, or chef executive Off
Ger, is Indispensable to efficient and sah,.
tary action; and this necessary discre-
uon IS liable to abuse under any govern
ment' however free in its principles, or
simple IN Its form. The heightened meas
ures and arbitrary conduct of our late
PRESIDENT, is not the fanlt of our federal
Constitution, but the fault of the man of
our choice. The Constitution is right.
Just as 1t IS; and if we were as careful in
preserving it, bya judicious choice of men.
as our political fathers were in FRAMING il.
by wise distribution and restriction of
powers, it would work as we'll now. as il
did in the first forty years of its opera
ton. This, with the exception OF the
dark days Of the Alien and Sedition Laws
was the brightest period in the annals Of
he world, on which the sun of liberty
ever shone. 1t affords the proudest proof
d the practlcabilty and excellence of pop
llaf government, which political history
records; and had the spirit of Washing
on, OF Jefferson, Madison and Monroe.

A NEW PAPER.

A newspaper is shortly to be issued in
this place TO prop, bolster up, and resusci-
tate the dead corpse of Van Burensm in
this section. 1t is to be published and ed
tied by one Doctor Hall, living somewhere
in the neighborhood of Punkin Patch, in
the northern part ofthis county. We ra-
Their think the Doctor will find his hard
case; but as no hopes are entertained of
the recovery of his patient, he, no doubt,
consoles himself with this very just renec-
ton, that his reputation will suffer moth
ing by the experiment, and that he at least,
will be as successful as that prince of
quacks, Doctor Jackson, who "cured his
patient 10 death" But we would not
have the Doctor abandon his laudable
project from the unfavorable aspect of
things near home: no, we recommend
him to "go ahead" The claws of the
United States, Proposals for carrying the
Mails" &c, will be given to some of the
faithful in Mississippi after the first of
January, the Doctor can then come in for

The Congressional Election.-We oh.
serve by the last Washington news that
Messrs. Gholson and Claiborne have Oh
tanned their seats for two years, by a final
vote Of the House. We are also assured
from undoubted sources, that these zen
tlemen will not resign nor permit their
names to be used in the present canvass.
Such being the fact, we no longer have
any authority for announcing their names
and accordingly withdraw them.
When the writ Of election was first IS
sued, we contended that it should have
been issued for the 25th Congress, and
that whatsoever was elected would hold
their seats for that time.
We we're however disposed to see the
contest repeated at the November cleo.
