WIS JOHNSON AN ADAMS MAN,


notwithstanding the overwhelming evil
aencs We produced last wcck,to prove that
''old fashioned Democrat" Col. JOHNSON, a
quoadam friend Of JONI Q. ADAMS, and
supporter Of his administration, the Rocking
han Register, with characteristic reckless
ness, still denies it. We exhibited by ex-
tracts from the Cl,wks5urg Enquirer, the
iollosing facts: That "Old JoE' was coop
Grating with the friends Of Mr.. ADAMS in
an "anti-JAcKsoN" meeting that he object
cd to that portion of the report only which
treated of Gen. JAcXsoS's qualifications !;
and swallowed the remainder entire, and
that he was actually appointed delegate
to Convention called for the purpose Of
promoting the reelection Of JOHN Q. AD-
AXIS Ia addition to all this VIC quoted Col.
Johnson's own language to the effect, that
Mr.. Adams deserved the high Office confer
red upon him and would doubtless do honor
10 the station. The facts gathered from the
C!arksb,rg Enquirer, were raised from the
gathered dust years, and re-published to
the world for the first time during the can
ya4s, in the Spectator Of last JYedacsldy.-
The paper from which we copied the ex-
tracts was old and greasy, and is the only
number known to be in crisicnce-and yet
the Rockingham Register, discovered in the
short space ofMrcc days, that Col. Johnson
'decliaca 10 serre because he ,ets not an Id
ans man"
Now, ye remarkable men of the Register,
re defy YOU to prove what you have said :
Have you stumbled on another number OF
the Ciarksbwg Enquirer, IN which you
found some such note as this--|"e stop the
pres, to announce that Joseph Johnson de-
chnes serving as delegate TO the Adams
Convention Z" There is no such statement
in the number we have seen. Col. John
son was present, why did he not decline at
The time he was appointed? Why did he
permit himself to be misreprescntcd in the
Ablic newspapers. Odd Joe himself could
aot tell, much less the Editors Of the Rock
laghzn Register, Col. Johnson ,cas an Ad-
am, man, and We challenge the Register,
% any body else to prove the contrary, A
denial of the fact by Col. Johnson, himself,
n the face Of the testimony against hun,
would only shake the confidence of the peo-
pie in his candor and honesty.
The Register asserts that the substitute
for which "Gld Joe" voted took the Anti
Adam, position. We hazard nothing when
re assert that they have never seen that
substitute and consequently know nothing
sbout what position ii took.
The Ed'rs the Register may, aud seem
perfectly willing to, assert anything to get
themselves and their candidate out of a
se1ape; but we will wager one Of Whites big
tnrnips that lie before us, they cannot make
rood either of the positions they have ia
Ken above by the proof. They may assert
.vyhat they please about the truth of our
sharge against "OLD JoE." II gives Us
aleasure 10 expose the rcckiessness of his
!aicRders. that the public may judge who
re the manufacturers Of falsehoods. 1t is
ways moro agreeable 10 expose deception !
