Pur.DY again. We are wonderfully flattered by the notice which Mr. Purdy of the Herald, is pleased to fake of a paper culled the Repertory. When, after loading us last week with disgraceful insinuations, the young gentleman kindly assured Friend Spooner, that ho 'intended him no disrespect, how our mortified feelings Were refreshed and consoled hy these assurances, that our editorial character had not wholly sunk in his estimation! Now, however, wo are remorselessly plunged again into the abyss of for wc find that all our labours have availed no more than to inform that great man, that paner called the Repertory, exists. Seriously, of receiving our gentle Correction with due humility, and setting a-lout the reformation we mildly pointed out in iis temper and conduct, the young Knight of the Herald has fallen into another fit of petulance -has again mounted his editorial Rosinantq, and again brandished at us his dreadful lance.

Wo are too much engaged about mare important matters, to take a till "hlilum. But we can afford to notice, for a moment, the complaints and charges sox, Granger for Monroe, and is now Judge of the Supreme Court of the United, States. Both of the candidates are aide and popular men, and the most sanguine anticipations are cuier-tiiaed of thett success. If Me. Adams is re-elected, we may anti- cipate an end to the high pasty excitement iwhtch now perv9dcs the country.

It will rebuke the demagogues ho have been m- strumentalin raising the Tempest for their own purposes, ar teach them, forthefu ture, that the people are too well acquainted with their true interests to proud of the fame of theii-great and good men, tosacri- 1111Iie ol asm gpod nien t()Sacrl. fice them on the altar of faction. A decisive 1 blow will he given to such attempts herenf. iff. We appeal to every honest man, whether such a consummation is devoutly to he wished for; and whether the harmony of society, as well as the continuance of the present policy of our government, is not an object deserving the employment of all his excitions and influence.

Eyc-ry man can do something to swell the current of right feelfeeling: r.d that moment is the last cf our liberties, when the true friends of their country regard a great national crisis with apathy, and permit the direction of public concerns to pass into the hands of the factious and unprincipled. In the event of Jacksons election, it is impossible to foresee the consequences. For the establishment of what nea principles of public policy is that party contending? What alterations in the measures of the government, do they want? We have never seen a Jackson man, or a Jackson confession of faith that furnished any answer. We know to be sure that the southern people demand a repeal of all Tarifflaws.and Hamilton, of South Carolina, proclaimed Jackson ta southern man, with southern interests and southern feelings. And no rational man can doutq that his course will accord with the interests and feelings of the southern par.

ty who support him. But we do know the character of Jackson, and the men who sur. round him; we see their ferocious attack? on the best men and the purest patriots thecountry; we see them seeking power an organized system of falsehood; we SGG tllG effects of Hifi cnlrif in see the effects of the Jackson spirit, in tho distraction of society wherever it penetrates.

Tho publishers of the Stage Regibtor, of Boston, request the proprietors and agents of Stages, and Canal Ppckpts.in New-York, (0 transmit to them immediately any information relating to their several lines, not contained in the last number. As the number fur September is in a course of speedy preparation and will bo larger than the proceeding one, any notice intended for its pages must be received by Monday, Cfitli jut-t, this little work is the only one of the kind in tho Union; is wholly devoted to the inter- of the conductor Of a paper, that he assails indiscriminately and with equal acrimony, fi Sends and foes, it is a matter of course, it that, he should reviveand point against his friends, exploded slanders, as well as abusive charges of his owai creation. Let Mr. Purdy rake upgthe oft refuted and forgotten slanders of tho Sentinel, and tho slang of cfnfHes- Linsley and Horace Stcelo against us.

Those papers will supply him with a magazine of dtf.tnsa-tion readymade toFis hands; and we assure him that they shall he treated by us with silent je COMMUNICATION. Mr. Spooner: I have observed that some of the newspapers in this Stale have omitted the name of Sf.tii Wctmore in the list of candidates for Councillors, and that one or two of them have accompanied the omission with some remarks charging that gentleman with hostility to the national Administration, and a partiality for Gen. Jackson. The only circumstance which has been mentioned asin-dicating in Mr.

Wetmore the sentiments which have been imputed to him, is a document signed liy him and three others of the Council containing their reasons for dissenting to the resolutions passed hy the Legislature last fall approving the measures pursued by the present Administration. This document has been referred to by some of our sharp-sighted politicians as conclusive evi UO VWilVlilOiV CVIF dence that all those gentlemen prefer the election of Gen, Jackson to that of Mr. Ad- ams. I know nothing personally of the po- litical opinions of the three otherCouncillors ii i i alluded to, but am willing to rely on the judgment of those who reside in their immediate vicinity, and have had ample opportunities to know their sentiments relative to the approaching Presidential election. It seems that by the common consent of the friends of the Administration in the counties where those gentlemen reside, they have been left out of the Council ticket, as being professed Jackson men.

They arc declared to be so by those who have the best means of knowledge, and I readily approve tho course which has been taken to prevent their re-election. But, with regard to Mr. Wetmore, the case is entirely different. The people of Franklin county, neither collectively nor individually, have expressed any opinion that be is opposed to the re-eloction of President Adams, nor lias there been any expression of public feeling to indicate a wish that some oilier candidate should be substituted in his place. Mr.

Wtlmores most intimate f.icnds those who have long known him, both in public and private life, and have had the best opportunities in social and confidential intercourse, to be acquainted with bis political opinions, have no doubt that his sentiments respecting Mr. Adams and Gen. Jack-son, are in accoidanco with those of a great majority of the people of Vermont. His friends and supporters here, urp the friends Tv A VIA Vi-I n'? stew Ar.r,A-:-rrrtJtT, T2ZS fhaotkeoi; Copt.

A REPUBLICAN. The triumph of tho Administration Ticket in Ncw-Orleans, speaks volumns. Here is the theatre of Jacksons glory. This city was successfully delendcd by the soldiers he commanded; and on every common principle of human action, we should have expected that here Jacksons popularity would have been overwhelming.

But this city had felt his iron despotism at the moment of its deliverance had seen Jacksons soldiers driving from the halls of Legislation the re-presentativss of the seen the gallant French citizens, whose services in her defence, Jackson himreif had applauded -r-banisbed, hy his despotic mandate, because they respectfully intreated him, after the repulse of the British, to relieve them from a station at the marshes belovy the city, where pestilence infected the atmosphere and swept them clThy semes had witnessed the patriotic state Senator, Louallicr, arraigned and tried for his life, before a Gourt Martial, for mildly remonstrating in a newspaper, against this illegal and un- MM' grateful treatment of his countrymen had scen Judge Hall and Judge Lewis, succes- sively marched thro the streets under a file efJacksons soldiers, and confined in a guard JV- i -i house, for issuing a habeas corpus, for Lou alliers enlargement that sacred writ of ha bcas corpus, which the Constitution itself considers as the safeguard of liberty, and has secured to every ficcman, Having seen the successful general degenerate into tho ty. rant, and felt his tyranny, they would not assist in subjecting their countryman, to a tyrants rule. There are many honest men who believe, in spite of documentary evidence, that Gen. Jacksons conduct in these transactions, has been misrepresented, and overcharged. The result of this election must undeceive them.

It is a verdict rendered by Jurors, who could not ho deceived mistaken, or corrupted. And let its warn, ir.g voice notbe lost upon us! Pennsylvania. Every mail brings us the most cheering intelligence from this great stale, The changes there, infavour of the Administration, aro immense. Eighteen months since, scarcely a paper in Pennsylvania supporlcd the Administration; there are now The people are o-pening their eyes, to the true character of Jackson, and the men who surround him- They begin to see in thesuccessof the southern opposition which sustains him, the prostration of thpir favourite policy, domestic manufactures and internal improvement. In short, the military fever is subsiding, and and supporters of tho Administration, audit hit-li his Herald has brought against is nut to be presumed they would he inatm.
