jpaaXbc i ident 9 MeBiage, publish .1 in our la: ttir n- cl out the notice of the Centlncl and other (natter, which will be found in our column to-day. We viewed it a ofli rial document and report that could not fall to give milch pleasure to every lover of his country's freedom a:.;5 happiness ; therefore it vas on that account, 19 Wei! as on account cl our admiration atid respect for every thing that springs From n source so pure and exalted, well entitled torn immediate insertion The perusal of that Message must gladden the heart ol" every -werican citizen It presents his Country progressing with rapid strides to wealth and greatness ; and developcs her increasing and inexhaustible resources.

It presents the most animating and glori-

OUs anticipations. Let us only merit them by our virtue and enjoy them as become freemen l:vemer.,not by name only, but In fact for this is the condition always annexed to the manifold bounties of Heaven, showered on a nation rising to unparallclicd gi 1 atness The learned and wise Dean Swift, said there were lour sorts of persons With whom he was resolved never to argue or dispute : a highwayman with a pistol or dirk .at his breast a military guard who came to plunder his bouse a triun in office wAo might make a merit of fatse actmatiin and a notorial liar who migh have a defifaved mind void of all fwinciile. Nov.r from what has already transpired

with regard to Jennings and his enttnel

tedious an- Ohleftain, therefore your desire to bear via tins route, na anticipated. On Monday your stajp legislature i p nod their third session wian attendance sufficient to make a ju;;fum in each house ; and after the us mi! interchange of ceremonies the members of the lower house on notice from the Senate that a committee was appointed to wait upon the governor with eye malign u looked askance1 at each other, stoa ling apprehension. Their feelings .t every session heretofore, had presented a pleasing calm ; but on the question tvho it the Governor ? they exhibited me indications of a belief that the calm before mentioned was delusive ; and that the business of this session renuired othe r feelings unable as I understand their views, to decide without the previous arrangement and enquiries of a committee unentangted by other matter, they finally appointed one, to make the necessary enquiries into Jennings' con duct and therefore they received his cpinions in order to proceed with other business. The report of the committee appointed in Jennings' case will be interesting and important and I will give you probably a hint of its disclosures so soon as it appears next came up the contested election of Mr." Johnston from your county, when the members were probably in a sort of hum-drum humor after the quere decision in regard to his ete gancy for the present ; and after a very able speech from mr. Johnston, the question was decided against both him and the law strange indeed, that a small majority of your legislature punish the people under Itws which they and their late Governor will not themselves ad

state may account for my wondcsjjng how this is ! For myself withal thisAl base

their judgments may err, arcjynkcly desirous to do all that is cofj&rT and proper ; and that they will in tneesufc of the enquiry into Jennings' conduct, concert with as little delav and as much energy as possible, all the means within their power, for the glory and the advantage of state. I would review the mes

sage of Jennings but it does not merit

state into confusion and contempt- it is the pains ; you will see it M Viewed to be proper for us occasionally 110 1:1 ot

to give them a short notice This only,

We shall do hereafter. We notice him this week but it would be worse than Usele to make any remarks upon all the silly trash Which the notorious little doctor, can alone fabricate We dispise the opinion of the little DneTon too much to again give the lie to his false declarations respecting our editorial remarks ; but as he has mentioned two circumstances totally unknown to Its, we will give him the lie most positively in regard to them thus he has an opportunity of sustaining his credit even in some trivial, unimportant particulars. We arc not aware of making out any account for another magistrate, for a con- " iiderabte time ; nor do we know of any manuscript remarks being taken from the office on any occasion ; if such has bean the fact, it only proves what we . luvve long since said, that any ramarks Xllpon what the little doctor may utter, is useless. Mr is too well known to deserve either attention or care ; and
