tration which rejects the tramlnels of party pre-
possession, and looks with liberal eye to the

Mons, without fear or favor.

| tyranny of bad Government, or have received
| by immediate inheritance the feelings which a

tration which rancorous Jealousy and disap-
pointed ambition, following the bent Of their ma
ture, assail without discrimination in argument
or phraseology. We insert, therefore, with
pleasure, the following additional evidence in
favor of the Admnistra ton:
