TILE WK8TBHN SUN. riArCKMYfiSt juke 20, 1829. The various newspapers arrayed in opposition to the administration of gen. Jackson, labor continually to mislead the public, respecting those removals horn office, which in the progre.. of that rvlorm, so essential to the prosperity and duration of cur free institution?, the President has been compelled to make. The most inflammatory articles are circulated from one extremity of the Union

to the other, h is p-oper that correct infor-! m uion on tlds subject should be disbcrninatcd. It ii proper tint this whole business!

should be presented ma proper light; and henceforth a portion of this p iper will be devoted to this object. The extract from the Nashvil'e Republican, and that from the Louisville Public Advertiser, in the last page of this day's paper, arc deemed woithy public attention, as presenting t"n- truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. I have been authorized to announce William Polfie, as a candidate lor Probate Judge, attlie approaching election. A letter to a gentleman in this Borough mentions, that Mr. Sullivan, the Commissi

Mr. Sillimrm, the Ohio Commission er, demands the whole time remaining of the twenty years allowed by 'he act of Congress for the completion of the Canal this is about seventeen vears. It is understood that Mr ,Si!ii.nan will not, on any terms, cuter into any obligation on behalf of the state of Ohio, to complete the Canal in less than fifteen years The Commissioners are to meet again in Oc tohcr. The PcnacoH Gaze'tc cypresses a belief t o it during the Presidency of gen. Jackson, Florida will be admitted into the Union as a state.

kail w' w"' it --i-T i tire from oflicc. Wc cannot open a Journal or Intelligencer from" Washington City, but wc arc inundated with the lamentations of learned Clerks' who have been relieved from the duties of their vocation. They seem to think, (and very naturally too) that they and their interests should alone be consulted in the general arrangement and details of the government. If Mr. Van Buren, Gen. Eaton, or Gen A-ny-body else, should address the politest billet imaginable to one of those " servants of the public," informing him that he has the liberty of retiring, goody gracious !" what a splutter is made about it ! Instead of dy

ing ala CVsar, after handsomely wrapping hi3 toga about him, as a good christian ought to do, the ungrateful churl gives his hat a fiercer cock, talks about patriotism, and spou's a lecture at the 14 powers that be," as long as Mr Clay's dinner speeches, or the homilies of the -re Bishop of Toledo. Hear him lie begins by telling you that he has been, more or less, omc fifty years in office, and has never been guilty of defrauding the government (the absence of honesty now adays, is the only thing which can unfit a man for office; and, according to the transverse rule of op position, the longer a man remains there, the stronger are his claims for a continuance ) He then continues by informing you that he has a father, a grand lather, and some score or two of children (ergo, as

! none have got grandfather and children but

men in office, the government shou u sup port none others ) And finally capping the

climax of consistency ; yon are told that it is

an incumbent duty upon LTnc!e Sam to employ him, because nobody else will. The Iloston Amei ican M mthly Magazine, a valuable periodical, in a brief political notice observes, in relation to the late election 14 The members ot the late administration and their eminent coadjutors, were in favour ot extending the powers of the general government, and of so interpreting the constitution

I as to justify the exercise ot authority in some

: rulers possess a stronger attachment to de

moratic and republican principles. They think the powers ghen by the constitution should not be exceeded by the agents of the

j people. They are more in favour of state

rights than the last administration." This is a very simple and comprehensive distinction, rarryiurr with it great force and truth. The extensive powers claimed by the late administration, and their attempts to establish a splendid national government, were among other objections, brought to bear against the coalition, by the people, with great unar 'unity. They were the aristocracy of the land, and so were considered. A gentleman of Michigan has invented a machine for printing letters &c. It is furnished with keys, and played upon after the manner of a piano forte, Occupies about the fourth part of the space of a forte piano, and a young lady, seated at it, and employed in printing a letter or card of invitation, would appear in the same attitude as in playing upon her forte piano. T will require a few hours practice, to enable one to print with the same rapidity as he can wiiic; but it maybe so contrived as to print two or three copies at once. A child of five years, it it can spell, can take a copy of any thing placed before it; a?d those who write an av?kwatd hand, aged persons, those who wish to have' their letters, compositions, Sec. appear in a neat manner, and 4k in print," in fine, all who ever write letters or any thing else, will fall in love with this invention. Salt S':riKrs on Grand river. We have long known that the Indians have manufactured salt for their own consumption, at Grand river of lake Michigan, but did not know that the water war, to be found in such quantity as to warrant the establishment of the manufacture upon an extensive scale. From the in formation wc have lately received, there is water enough in one place, about forty miles from the I ke, and ten miles above the head of schooner navigation, to keep one hundred kettles going, or a proportionate extent ol vats for solar evaporation. This marsh is a bout an acre in extent, on the south side of the river, and has been, or is about to be lea sed bv the government to Mr Wm. Belcher, of this city. Mr. Belcher returned from Grand tiver on Tuesday, and brought with him a quantity of the water, and ot the salt manulacturcd from it. Detroit Gar.
