FRIDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1825. }
t: Madness rules the Hour." j
We hoped that the revenge of the Fed- a
eral party in the Legislature had been amply
gratified in the elections of Speaker—Pre
sident and Clerk of the Senate, Judges, At
torney and Solicitors General, and that
judgment and good feeling taking the sway, (
would retrieve, by working many positive!'
benefits to the State, the errors of that “ lit-j<
tie brief authority” which in the first mo-,*
nients of possession had intoxicated and de l'
hided. We were deceived. Intolerance 1
and persecution still rule at the seat of
Government with an unsated appetite and
new sacrifices are continually required. '
It appears to be now a settled and avow
ed policy that no Republican shall remain,
in nfiice, and the reason has been giv-r
en in a late publication with a franknessh
which had graced a better cause. Clark has j
been unsuccessful before the people, and
Troup has walked unhurt through the fie
ry path of detraction—to the executive
seat. The mortification is too great to be
borne quietly, and because the friends of
the disappointed candidate have the majori
ty in the Legislature a grand effort is made
to elfect a change in the public opinion.
The modus operandi is by pulling out all
the Republicans and putting in iheir own
friends, under the belief that men in office
have influence, and that it will be the duty
of these otficers in gratitude for their elec-j
tions, to sally forth, the apostles of the Clark!
cause, in quest of proselytes. Miserably!
lame as is this policy and certain to meet
the indignation of the people, it is pursued
with an untiring and unsparing zeal, which
occasions our Correspondent at Milleclge-
Tille to say in a letter»f tl e 21th ir,st. "We
were not surprised or mortified, when the
faithful and long tried servants of the pub
lic were yesterday hurled from their places
to make room lor the hungry aspirants of a
party whose chief anxiety appears to be to
possess the loaves and fishes. The old
Treasurer who had served nineteen years,
and whose conduct in office had been this
winter for the nineteenth time unanimously
approved, was nevertheless permitted to re
tire by a majority of twenty votes.”
Yes— we announce it with grief—
Geoiige R. Clayton, an able and up
right officer has, with the strongest claims
upon the intelligence and justice of the Le
gislature, been rejected and turned out of
office— because he did not belong to the par
ty happening to have a majority in the.
Legislature. Hamilton the amiable and
intelligent Secretary of State has not been
retained in he is a Re
publican. The Surveyor General failed
for the same reason. Thus are faith
ful services repaid—thus the disappoint
.ments of the late Governor’s election reven
*ged— thus the high and sovereign will of
the people declared in that election, con
temned and set at defiance ! who will say
that these men would have lost their elec
tions had the people voted by General Tick
et ? We ask emphatically , 'if the polls had
been held throughout the State, would not
most of those persons appointed to office by
the present Legislature have been rejected
by the people ? no impartial man can doubt
it. In the elections by the Legislature
then, the will of the people has not only
been unrepresented but positively disobeyed,
and for whose benefit lias such a" fearful res
ponsibility been assumed by the Represen
tatives of the people? We are sorry that
the answer is so easy and obvious—for the
gratification of party resentment. But our
correspondent proceeds
“ Congressional districts are (o be made
and are so arranged as to secure the se
lection of particular individuals—the col
lege which has grown into notice and use
fulness under their neglect and even oppo
sition is not to be spared*—additional trus
tees are to be appointed to dignify some
others of the party”—So, we are informed,
a Hoard of public ivories is to be established
and certain persons are to fill it--and pro
bably the whole show will wind up with a
vole of censure upon Governor Troup !!•
Our friend asks in conclusion " Is there not]
a redeeming spirit in the people which will
put things to rights?” For the sake of the
State-—of its character abroad and repose
at home-—we hope the majority will yet
pause and reflect. Long ago we heard of
the threat that “ the State House should be ;
eviscerated ” a grosser term was used which
we dare not to repeat. The elections in the!
several counties hail then just been announ
ced. \\ e looked upon the expression as
idle and unmeaning; but it was prophetic, l
of what has actually happened and figura-j
five of the political butchery by which the!
Capitoi lias been deprived of some of its!
best officers.
The Boston Palladium of Friday, says!
that Mr. Kean visited that city a few days
since, and had an interview with the Man
agers of .the Federal Street Theatre.
American Tea. —Specimens of tea, raised
and manufactured in Franklin county,
(Pa.) have been exhibited at Chambersburg.
The tea was raised from seed found ina
box of imported tea.
i
YVe learn from a friend who was present v .
on the occasion, that the venerable and
venerated James Monroe, late President
ot the United States, was sworn as a Jus
tice of the Peace for the county of Louden, ,
in which he resides, on Tuesday last, ami \
immediately took his scat on the Bench asaj
junior member of the Court. The chair of j
the presiding Magistrate was tendered, I
and, with great propriety, declined. j

According to some calculations, four hun
dred thousand barrels of salt, will be made
in the western parts of Pennsylvania during
