SEsarr-At1 IL clock to- day, the election Of Print
er was moved. The Federal party made it their first
act after the 4,h Of March, to violate the contract
tered into by the Senate with the Printer who was so
obnoxious TO the succeeding majority but they have
found it very difficult to adjust the distribution Of the
spoils thus acquired The postponement, presume,
was delayed until the Bank project presented, and
the course of tina. formidable body the Conservatives,
(Which MIR. Adams, improving upon MIR. Webster say
ing, declares may be carried in cab,) was ascer-
tanned. The Madisonian is out this morning for the
new Bank of the U. S, and the Editor the evening
of the same day. finds himself Printer This indication
nothing far the press is concerned; but, to our
minds it is very conclusive that Mr. Rves, as well as
Mr. Tallmadge goes for the new Bank, if his vote be
necessary to lis passage 1t sign too, that the little

break up and become keeper al the end of the road
