Honoral!e Can Jor, —A Mr. J. Hal ah
way, of Oneida county, New-York, who
is rcpiefenled to be a rcfpe<‘iab,lc and influ
ential lawyer, hae lately presented tvfo let
ters “ to Ihe Federaliili” of that county,
through the medium ot the Columbian G;t-
O
zettc. In commencing his fit It letter he
declares, that he has served their (thef.de
rai) party faithfully—has at all tiinf* food
•at his post-.-nor has ever deviated to tire
right band or to the left. <4 But here, faya
he, I half ; 1 cmi proceed with you no fur
ther. To remain any longer in opposition
to the regular and confitutcd authorities of
our land, appears to me a crime t and, upon
a general fettle, the confluences are fatal
to a nation." After Hating the pernicious
effefts that must refill from the fyitem of
opposition, abuse and Hander, practifed by
the federal!As, he addi 4 * '1 iitfc rffcflions
have led me to the following rtfolutions ;
That I will no more speak evil of the rulers
of our People; that il in the prefen f, or in
the future administration, it fliould appear
to me that a change ihould be necclfary, I
will seek it i» no other than a conltitutional
way; and I will at all times bow before
the Sovereign People." — (t It appears to
me the bed war to keep h.vd men out of
oirice, and to correct the errors (if there are
any) ot thrfe in office, to come under the
standard of thole who arc- in power, and let
our exertions be to build up, and not to de
fray. lam fully confident if ibis line of
condud Hieuld be adopted, every imaginary
evil would soon vanb.n, and that we fhouitl
be a happy and flouriuiing people, under the
prefnt adminiilration, many hard fayxngs
to the contrary not wirhfthnding." The
manly and candid manner In which Mr.
Hathaway* vows the change in his opinions,
docs great honor to his hear:. We would
recommend to every hoped heaitcd fcdtrul
ilt, to “go and do l.kiW! J r e,’ >
