[For the American Republican. !

.HesSrS. Editors:-l am glad to see the 1.-TWO
Leading papers" at length opening their CO.
lumns to communications indicating approba-
lion, as well as diSdpprobaiiOn, in our commu-
nifty, to the measures which the Executive, in
the faithful discharge of his responsible func-
ions, thought proper to recommend to the ia
Vorable consideration of the Legislature, and
to which that body, the representatives. of The
people, faithfully responded. Has some new
light, at this late hour, struck upon the vision
OF those sagacious editors, by which they are
enabled to perceive more clearly the difficult
ties and intrlcaces which beset the path they
had chosen?-or has a new principle operated
upon the public mind, within the last few days,
to which they are now disposed with becoming
grace to accord, rather than adopt procrasti-
mating policy, with the view of obtaining less
odious means than the much deprecated stamp
act of the last session to redeem and preserve
the state faithi Whatever may have been the
influence to which they yielded, they have
adopted the expression of the prudent mariner
that was carried upon the even surface of the
ebb to point almost of peril, from which he
could only save his bark by again 'coming in
at the flood" to take new departure for a
more safe and commodious channel. Not dis
posed to withhold commentator where it is
just, cheerfully render them credit for this
first evidence they have manifested to do JUS
tce to the Executive by giving an "abdng
place" in their columns to communications
that are calculated at least to soften the hostl-
lily which their own course tended to agravate
and strengthen against the financial measures
which both both branches of the Legislature
adopted for the payment of the public debt
But will they stop here? Have they not mag
nanimity enough, or are they not sufficiently
convinced of the 'errors of their Ways to SUI
peradd to them their own editorial support
Time will show. But whatever may he the
course they will adopt, adjure them to con-
slider well whether it is not the duty of every
good man and true" to sustain every lawful
and constitutional measure that has been adopt
ed under the solemn sanction of legislative au-
thority, for the accomplishment of the Just and
honest purpose of retrieving the State from ir-
retrievable ruin and disgrace, rather than coun-
tenance a resistance that may bring with it
evils which can neither be stayed nor avcrted.
Our only security against violence and dlsor-
der is the sacred regard in which all laws
ought to be held. If the laws operate niuri-
ously to our interest, there is virtue enough in
the people to correct them in succeeding le-
gislature. But let us forbear rousing the lion
in his lair. FUBL1Us.
