"An UbtcTMcr" whL have a place in our next JEXXIYGV C& VTI.VSL. When We tin noticed that vehicle and its unpn.Kip.cd Liitor, (MNaniee,) we reg. cite J very much the nc:.sity that torced ms to the performance of our duty to do so. We warned that tool of Jenlungs tJf the inevitable result of the deceptive and doradm manner in which ke was ttteu&pttnr to impose up M an irttclii.rt-nt an upright people but our Warning was disregarded his 'ju-ive fcLsehood was continued, and from toe proofs we have pre-, nted. ftntl the remarks we have be -m forced to make, the people arc now left to judge of the intention of that press, and of the worth of Jonathan Jennings and his Ccntinel upholders, Wnethcr wc have since the first unexpected and extraordinary elevation of the governor, fai.ed to demonstrate his native i nbccUity, end barely superficial ec ttiremeuti or whether we have not ith all due respect afforded from time If time pro)f incontrovertible of his unworn hirt'-s and Unfitness and of the minister, s. tfiah and cor. upt views of the few chief supporters he has ever had, or ever trill have we suppose in this part of the State, our readers are also left to judge. It would be truly ludicrous to analise the individual merit, w orth, aod pubiic services of these few men. We wish not however, to assume Ihe task ; but if the little editing doctor continues to deal in nothing but personal scurrility, it must be assumed. The last weeks Centinel reiterates the base and false suggestion that our e IItorial remarks are not our own, althou g 1 wc had informed him of the falsehood it is well enough for a tAixg like him to say, he does not believe Us- Ae can do 30 with impunity, f )r Ms talents, design and falsehood have been so frequently exposed that he well knows no upright ttan can believe him. WHAT IS A FACTION? In its original sense it signified companies of combatants in the public games ; a sense in which the French continue to use it in military affairs, to this time - as when a soldier is ordered upon duty they say he is ordered to enher upon his faction - and when he comes off duty, they say. he has performed his faction ; but in this country the term has more latitude. It signifies a small body of office holders, office seekers or mercenaries, bound to some nefarious or base purpose, and dependant on some designing chief, whose injurious views they carry into execution and whose improper acts they justify. Such have been the political factions in all countries; and such is the Jennings faction that now exists here. The views and objects of faction, carry an idea totally opposite to patriotism, and indifferent to public or private virtue, as to the interests, rights and freedom of the people. To the good sense of every discerning mind we would now appeal, to say from actual experience whether it belongs to the jennings faction here to act different; and whether the unprincipled echo, the little doctor, does not answer, since his first residence, all ideas of a dependent partizan? fcOltMUKlCATlON.") Mb. Stovt. I have been a subscriber to your valuable paper and a reader of its content., for two years ; Si although I have almost in every instance, a I mired an 1 adopted 'he correct opinions it has Steadily promulgated, yet I confess, I have o: iate ye-.rs seen nothing in print that c tused me to reflect si seriously a' a notice in your last, copied from the 1 Indianian," which intimates that our late unworthy chief magistrate J . JenDings, has ignorantly or intentionally abdicated the office by committing another reach ol the constitution which says VthiKno person holding any otfi :r un Ser toe U States, or this state, shall exercise the omce of governor.' On a ?ttict examination of our constitution in all its ramifications, the inevitable conclu sicM. in my own mind is. that as h : Jen 111 ; ted under a r omm:ssi Wl from the President of the U states and will c ma from the general government com pensatioe as a c mtaissioner in the late treaty with the Indians, he cannot legally fvi.os: kte hints -If a g jvernor without the people re-elect him $ and 1 suspect he kms the sentiments and opinions of the people too well now to trit to that.
