But few days snoe we alluded to this gen
tleman's British partality, in commenting on hisi
article so tenderly touching the vassalage toI
which England would reduce China, and the1
mode in which other nations were to be brought
to recognise the modestly-asserted supremacy of
little island on one side of the globe, over al
great empire on the other Mr. Stone, we have
no doubt, ndulges with thousands Of his federal
fricnds) sincere, filia attachment to the mother
country, which swallows up mere domestic pat
riotisrn, giving way to that pride in tRSSGgory of
the head of the family, which is very:5pt to CON
troll the sentiments of such as worship at the
shrine of strong and great go96rnhients. Mr..
Stone, and the great majority Of the federal par
ty, stood up for England during the last war, and
may have very honestly thought that the Ameri-
can offspring of Great Britain ought to be whip
ped ont of ifs stubborn opposition to the parents
ambition, which was construed into sabservien-
cy to French interests.
The iedoraliss of Mr.. Ssone's stamp have one
characteristic, however, which elevates them ftT
above their present associates of the coon dynas-
tty. The pride which exaIts their minds to admit
a passion for British arstocracy and glory, raises
them above the base dssmulatQn, the vile de-
ception, the low fraud, practised by their confed-
crates, who stoop to take upon themselves the
name, and I've might add) the nature Of coons.
AS an evidence Of the superiority Of the old-time
federalsts over the new, we give the following
leading Article from Stones Commercial AdyeI-
tjscr Of tile 5th instant. No man knows betie
Ithan he what was Mr. Van Baren's course from
the flst to The last of the war, for they were an
ltagons;s throughout. And his political assoc
ates, in applying 10 him for information, cegtanly
could not have found one better qualified to give
it, except that he WAS too conscientious to talsfy
and pervert bis knowledge 10 suit the objects oI
/ cooneIy. We give his reply to the interogato-
ries put to him in regard to Mr. Van Buron's
course during t1s. war The facts, as he states
them, utterly oxtingQish the false CLOSES which
his party put on Mr.. Van Bur6n's course at the
hour of his entering public life, and throughout
the eventful period Immediately succeeding, in
! which he acted part so conspicuous.
