The people indignant at this gros violation ot their will, hurled the guilty offenders from power at the next succeeding election by an over whelming vole. And in reward of the Fidelity nl one who had re used to accept the office polluted by a batgaiu to obtain it, placed Gen. Jackson at the head ot the nation by more than two thir ds of the electoral votes. Nothing daunted by past defeat, naught informed by past experience federalism in this state, in all New England, is on the same mad career as formerly, there she will go, there let her go. But why, we would, ask, should democrats lollow her ? why should they suffer her todrag them at her tail to destruction. Look back upon her course, it is the fugged toilsome, honourless, profitless path ot action and treason Look ahead and the same cheerless, desolate, miserable prospect presents itself to view. Let her then, democrals, pursue alone Iicr road to ruin. Prosciuttion The opposition papers have i:evet ceased to charge the ad-

mtnistiation with proscription since it iirst came into power. The following summary of removals and of the number of officers in the respective departments of the public service, will show with What propriety this chargo has been made. In the Department of State there arc 24 officers; of those 6, or one fourth, have been removed. In the Treasury Department there are 174 officer ; of those, 22, or one eighth, Lavd been removed In the War Department there are 20 officers ; of those, 3, or one seventh, have been removed In 1822, Mr. Meiggs, the then Post blaster General, in his official report to Congress says : "the changes of postmaster, from various causes, U no inconsiderable source of labor, in making final adjustments of accounts "These changes amount to nearly one thousand a year. If in 822, when the unmber of postmasters was about 5.000, one thousand changes annually took place, five bun dred and forty three will not be thought extravagant for eighteen months, when thei' number has increased to upwards of 8,P0).
