authority. received involuntarily a high and
iustly merited acknowledgement ofhis great

improperly and public justice. The Union
took US TO task for our, administrations, and

ccessor is in the employ Of the Government

parallel 10 this, was the removal OF one Of the
Clerks in the Patent office, by Mr. Burke
who was solicited-as. Eve proved by aff-
