The Centincl Press, rf Jennings mem ry, originally scut here bjr Jontthan, with a fixed stipend to its conductors payable by him, has moved scjuarters. ' Tis much to be regretled t lie "Little Doctor" become tired : soon ; but on the whole there appears no cause tor deep Lamentation ; I i the same fabricators are yet here, ami no doubt the p iper will continue for some time longer, in every essential quality of falsehood and abuse, the nani! precisely semper idem not as t ie sycophantic, vain, conceited coxcomb once translated it, 'worse and worse,' but a I translate it, 'better tnd better.'

All mankind know, however, that no I tod thing on earth can be enjoyed without the possibility of itsbeing contaminated by the admixture of evil, or bv the base purposes to which it may be applied. At all events, the Centincl must become 'bi tter and better,' or the Mill is quite convenient, and n im i he all-powerful aid of Steam, the degratling and pernicious rhapsodies ol talsehood lor which that Press has u r n. ntn,;nc k-ft 5in r lipn nnlnrlmi. mav licrriftor K oun 'int.) somewhat more nlausin . ...t.T ...... i . . he.

When it becomes possible ' w t u for that paper to accomplish such imT wn . convert, bv the aid ot Stem, a Iaree majority of our citizens, who In .v. an I declare Jonathan Jennings iiV!! ii'tu'oriiit' nf t!u nnnlfa r-ifi ; y . rr : , ctfectinff that, it will be time to try convert all the Members of the Leirislot ure, who discovered Jennings' im proper conduct, into "persecutors who, as tlie truth-filling Centincl criblcr savs "the better to conceal their moral and political deformity come out before the public under the ri-.i k of miarhty sticklers for the conatitution. W hen all this be accomplished, it will then be time enough igr the deceptious, lawyer-like imposter to trv and ts other matters such as 1 foreign tools,1 4i the devil," MEnrland" M negro Jack,' 11 enemies of the state. enemies ol the L.S . Rc kc. If the above subjects, which were no doubt created not like Mr. Ulake's old stories of Mr. Jennings. by " the ardor and thoughtlessness of youth, "cannot be ground,twisti d, twirl ed or converted into u President of the U. States," to wei ve a faction, and in-

j tire one of our respectable citizens;

probably, with a very little care, they might be rendered into a very accommodating bank president and as unfortunately we have presidents" of various descriptions, it could, for such gentry, make little odds. A president" is a "president" Whether of a club a bank or a shaving machine. To such drivellers, name's a' I no matter for the quality. Ii it should unluckily be discovered that neither a club or bank president can conveniently be manufactured as before suggested, I would recommend a little change in the spelling of the Word, yet preserve the common pronunciation, and try if a precedent could not be formed ; and to suit that Ccnlinel Press, let it be a precedent ol base and calumnious falsehood. I will just remark before I conclude, that as the name of Judge Parke is dragged out by '.he Ccntinel scribbler, the better to cover his lies and calumnies that however I lament that gentleman's present connexion with those of whom he has expressed himself most contemptuously still I regard him I believe he may say u my circumstances, but not my will consents " The last time I heard Judge Parke Warned about any " private concerns," was by one of the Jennings faction he has now, it would appear, become their favorite ; and let him remember, assomeofhis former friends do, that their fairest smile leads to destruction. The Steam-Mill bank is no li private concern it is a matter of public interest ; for its paper is in the hands of ev ery man and its mana clement and solvency it is therefoie every man's duty to ascertain. WhoA J ever the Centincl defamer is, I would advise him to let "private concerns" alone but that is quite unimportant to me his venom cannot injure for I have often heard that sycophants who are vainly looking up topatronage for office, will never stopU deba sing themselves ; 8c he happens to be an instance in point. Let the people treat all such as thev merit; and if base endeavors can possibly white wash the conduct of Mr. Jennings, I hope it will never be with the consent f our citizens, who are acquainted with lus misdeeds. Z A. FOR THE W. SUN. TO THE PEOPLE. The meanness and adulation of certain worthless sycophants who for love of gain orSpffice will always attach themsVlvcs to men in power, cannot I trust impose upon the understand ing of many : particularly whei it be recollected that but a few years since, some of these mei declared the character of Jona-

than Jennings so obnoxious course of public measures purthat it pained tbe miod to sued by this Gov. Jennings glance on its most prominent do you not rejoice that the time

The last - weeks Centincl however as niflrht hi PVOWIpH mKhlrc .- ? ' m . o . I htc without effeet,& attempts to cover all Mi . Jennings' aberrations bv stating that he had a "great share" in making pur chases of the Indians. Indeed Jonathan Jennings a w great

sharc" in negociatin a taeaty with Indians, associatecjshe was, with two such experienced negotiators as Gov Cass and Judge Parke the idea is preposterous. Mr. Jennings could

of himself, have done little more han place his name to the treay ; and that he might have written just as well after judge Parke had returned home, had le attended to the duties of his office at Cory don while the o her negotiators were arranging t. I entertain this opinion, be cause Mr. Jennings had no experience of Indian management, and because I have heard that tor a number of davs during that treaty he was indisposed and the liquors provi ded for the occasion by the government of the U. States, were excellent. But no matter; Mr. Jennings was commissioned to act with Gov. Cass and judge Parke, and he put his name to the treaty and therefore according to the Centinel logic Mr. Jennings must not be blamed for any offence whatever Well, he accepts a commission contrary to the express stipulations of the con stitution of this state which constitution he had sworn to comply with during his term of service as governor and behold the criminality of the offencebecomespraiseworthy, be cause he signed his name to a sheet of paper ! Certain ques tions are respectfully addressed to him by "Enquirer," and the Centinel declares that because that writer seems to " believe" what I have no doubt he knows to be true as well as I do, why forsooth the "great" negotiator cannot condescend to satisfy the people. O dear, O dear, that any man snouia Know & believe I the truth ; for there exists a 1 lit I check upon Mr. Jennings an- ' . i . swer, that must be the obiection to answer, and surely the illferrence is clear.

affair where particular persons or particular interests are per mitted to disregard or overstep solemn duties, the precedent in one case mav become a rule ot action in a thousand others ; and if any man can by a ' Ccntiner and its abettors be led a stray to sanction impunity in wrong, 3lr. Jennings can easily hereafter, construe that sanction into the ?vo-it to do uTong ; but were the people to unite in the elevation of such a character as that of Christopher Harrison's the respectability of our state, and the rights and privelegesof our citizens would be secure.
