Sir You will see by the last
"Columbus Freeman" that the Captain
still shows some signs Of "honorabie
life" amidst the wreck that your we'll
directed broadsde caused; and in his
desperate struggles cIings to the "Ad
dress Of the Liberty Convention" as a
drowning man would TO straw. And
were it not for his "ldSt notice." or last
KICK, | would let him CrGpl ont, but as it
is, he must have one "duck" more be
fore he is again permitted 10 change
his garments.
The Captains defence Of himself
opens rich, He says, ave thought we
had long since satisfied all candid and
honest minds, that whatever might have
been our motives for adopting our pre-
sent political course, there was nothing
selfish OF the bottom, and that, at all
events, we had not been bought up, as
the phrase is."
Thus he goes on to show (or, rather,
endeavors to make show that there
was no under current operating "at the
bottom" that induced him TO enlist in
the Kings service and that he had
mot given up or renounced single
principle he EVER advocated" by thus
embracing The abolition cause. Now,
sir. as this appears to be his great and
main fort upon which he relies, and
upon which he prates so much about Of
late, | will cause these "principles," TO
"presiO change" and leave The wonder
stricken Captain to look in van Tor
them in his dear "Libery Address,
The Captain will see that we have com
piled with his request by "lookng up
The documents" where his principles
are recorded, but for fear that he would
be puzzled TO find them himself al this

ton OF martial law, the suspension Of
the habedS corpus act, were not the acts
for which General jackson was foed
However illegal those acts might be 10
themselves, it was not The province Of
the court TO determine in that form; but
n raS The province Of the court to VIM
dIcate its own dignity by furnishing au
open and avowed resistance to It's aulho-
rlty, accompanied with the most wonton
and unnecessary violence and insult TO
the person Of the Judge.
This, said Mr.. c., is the sentence we
are called upon 10 reverse as unjust,
erroneous and illegal. However vii
ling he might be to return this money
TO General jackson CO gr0tia however
anxious he might be to do any thing
consistent with truth and principle, 10
crafty General Jackson or his friends
on this floor or elsewhere he could not
do this: he could not do it. because he
believed the judgment conformabIe TO
law and justice he could not do it, be-
cause he would thereby sanction dan
gerous precedent that might hereafter
be invoked by some chie(tain less mag
unanimous than General Jackson, TO the
subversion Of the liberties of his coun.
try; he could not do it, because he would
thereby contribute 10 revive an explod
ed calumny against portion Of his own
constituents; he could not do it, because
he would in so doing ahix ar unjust stig
ma upon the character Of the upright
magistrate by whom this sentence was
pronounced That Judge is. long since,
consigned to that tomb to which, we are
told, Gen Jackson is fast fastening
No sculplured marble marks the spot
where his ashes repose. Pilgrim pat.
riots do not resort to his tomb, as they
will one day to Gen. Jackson's, TO breath
The inspiration that hovers around the
grave Of a departed hero.
But for the accident that has connected
his name with this historical incident,
it would ere long be forgotten; and if
that name is TO be rescued from obi-
won, let it not be "damned 10 everast'
ing fame"
