FOR THE WESTERN SUN. To A Friend to Truth. I fliould befoie this have entered my protefl agaiuft the erroneous contlufions contained in your ftcond addrefs to the citizer.s of Indiana had 1 not been taught to believe that you would in a fubltquent number of the Wellern Sun fuccefsfully expofe my fallacious reafouing. To have replied to every paragraph in your iVurrilous tiTay would have occupied a g-eater portion of the Sun, than I had a right to expeel, to this, and a convidion that your vindictive and ill fated charoes would make no imprtflion upon the mind of the moft infjgnificant foot boy that pads the (Ireet, is to be, attributed my iilence, lc not to a belief that they poflVflcd any foundation in truth. You mull indeed be an adept in the art of legerdemain to convince the citizens of In diana that the executive was itimulated by ambitious motives to alter the tenure by which the judge&Ciriht inferior courts held their commililbiis.it is a well eftablifhrd maxim, ancToUe tiiit tionly controverted by the fjpiht Ener of A Friend to Truth,' that arijjicrpendent judiciary is the bulwark of a republic, the glory of freemen, and an impregnable rampart that (hields them from the tilbrts of tyranny, and the rod of opprellion. In julhce to 4 one of our fupreme judges' an honorable and dignified member of the bench, who you alfert has defcended from the dignity of his flation to detend in a news paper controverly the obnoxious c tottering admisuftration of our governor,' 1 112 Li ft inform the public that he v;is not the author, nor concerned in writ'ng ereminh Jingle, of this you Were informed by the Editor, at the time von handed him vour elTiy for publication.
