LAWRENCEBURGH,

FOR THE PALLADIUM. FeLLOW-CiTIZENS, In the 38th No. of the Palladium, my subscribed Father lias charged mc with indiscretion, youthful folly, unreasonable errors, the want of proper reflection, and the sin of presumption: all exhibited in my reply to his late address. I appeal to you if this is the treatment which a son should reasonably expect for the first offence given. But children should not complain at the mode of correction, which their feeling parent may choose. True I am a youth, and who did not know that the Junior could be as old as the Senior. Nor could it be expected that y outh should have the dis cretion of old age. Hut "unreasonable errors" is a quaint doctrine to me, as mo there might be reasonable errors!!! Hut when riper years shall steal on J may perhaps understand it. True I had nut little time for reflection, and, under all these embarrassing circumstance.' who could have expected me to do much; better. 1 would ask if Farmer (and ev en all our enthusiastic politicians) had for years past pursued the same course that I did, in my "more excellent way,"' if it would not have had a much better effect ? I again appeal to rnu for the candor and propriety of my statements. The firs! part was but a reply to Farmer, i which I answered him according (not tc say fully) to the premises which he laid down. But wherein do all of those filings appear, wilh which 1 am charged Youth, folly, indiscretion, boyish 1 e. appear to be the principle arguments which the old gentleman makes use of. both in reply to "Mechanic' and me. But having the advantage of age arid ex perience, no doubt they are the mos' powerful that he can produce. AI an now of lawful age I shall speak freely. Arguments, indeed ! ! w hie!) no one would use but tor the want of arguments. I would ask the candid on both sides (and many such there are) if my deductions were "unreasonably erroneous' or inv counsel presumptive under the circumstance, and in the sense that it was -en? If, for instance, Farmer had purchased a new hat, and from the "moment" that he put it on, it should have produced "an unparalleled" and increas

ing pain in the head, would he not havejrj J4,!(l all on the vices of the other a attributed it to some unfitness in the hat ?! hru.sand times exaggerated. If I did And it so long as he continued lo wear i i not treat the subject oi "a more excellent the pain should continue to increase,! ay," candidly and prudenilv, (for the

would he, think you, consider it"ur.reasonabl) erroneous or presumptive'" for even a silly youth to advise him to lay ii aside, at least for a season, or even to exchange, it? Would this advice lookmuch like youthful folly and want of proper reflection'? The comparison is a fair oi)e. Farmer staled that from the moment congress made Mr. Adam? pre sident (not the people) this friglufulj scene was commenced, and was still on the increase. Again, Farmer says "the political elements of our government are in commotion; the politicians of the East, the South, and the West are in trouble; a storm is gathering around us, and it behooves every rational man to be on his guard, lest it burst upon his head." Bat why did Farmer make, all this outcry of danger? Why labor to terrify the people? Why did he not tell them as he now does, that notwithstanding'J V?

If this is what he calls "prosperity and safety' let me be in "jeopardy." For my part I am confident that it will lake maturer yars before I can fully understand Farmer's contradictory doctrine. In the first instance, he tells us all is in danger the East, South and West are in trouble; (blessed be the North); that we are just ready to be deluged in wormwood and gull 5 calls on the sages to devise some

way of escape; and ends the frightful story by exhorting Farmers, Mechanics, and laborers of every class to be on their guard. In the next instance, he tells you all is well; all is safety; no body hurt; we were never in so flourishing a condition!! What a change must have taken place since toy "more excellent way" appeared before the public. Ii must (one would suppose) have been of more service than all that has- been written before by the aged and the learned. it we are to judge of it according to what has taken place according to Farmer's last statement, though v. ritten by "r. -illy boy." And herein is that saying fulfilled: "the foohsh things of this world shall confound things that are mighty." Farmer's charge of presumption, hardly deserves notice. No man ut a common share of candor and discernment, whether young or dd, would have made it. First 1 said that I would go to any reasonable length to secure Jack son's election. Can there be anv impro priety in going to a reasonable length? 1 hat would be some what like his "un reasonable error!" I should say that il would be the unreasonable length which would criminate a man. But then pa rents should know more than their children, so I will not contend about it. 1 nex: said that I dare not say but thai Mr. Adams would make a much better president than IMr. Jackson, and I say so still. Flow can anv one know until Air. .lark shall have been president ? So Farj - - - mer thinks to act candid and admit the possibility of an erring judgaient, and so but a reasonable length, and then trust in Providence for the result, is presump:un, or 'sinning that grace may abound.' This is also a doctrine thai I do not understand. I have always been taught that to trust Providence, without roite' io a reasonable length, was base presumption. Farmer would, I am confident, consider it presumption to trust Providence for a crop, without going io a reasonable length to secure it: winch is to rxpeet the end without making ust f the means., I would still recommend uue respect to jur. A I ims and .nr. Jackson, and also tt their friends, and a reliance on Providence ; not to do as Farmer does, dwell all on the virtues of the hrst part was only a reply to Fanner, a 1 have heiore stated,) it certainly tvas foi want of a riper judgment ; that, fidlowcitizens, remains for you to decide. I hope, however, that nothing which I have said will produce a personal animosity between the Fanner and his oc it certainly never shall wilh me. Farmer ma again reply, he may disown me altogether, and say many hard things as he has this time; but if lie should, 1 shall not re ply again, (unless the nature of his remarks should require if,) for two reasons: First, I expect to leave the state to-morrow morning, for some month-, and could not reply if I would; Second ly, I always considered it very unbecom ...
