SUNDAY, APRIL 4, 1041. THE GAG CIRCULAR. The Rtpublican and ourself aio at Issue as to tho constitutional bearing of the Circular issued ostensibly for the new office holders, but intended, as wo believe, to justify the removal of old and faithful public officers. Tho Republican misapprehends our remaiks, whon limy conceive that “tho Georgian defends to iho full extent, tke nctive interference of office hold ers in controlling elections.” In limine wo wish our opinion to be understood, While we contend tliut a citizen, when he accepts an offico under Government, yields no constitutional right, guaranteed to him as a citizen of the Kcpub' 'lie, more especially as a citizen of tho Stato in •which he resides, wo would condemn nny measure 'ending to “control" tho oloclive franchise,wholher “at the polls, by threats or intimidation, or in the Vrhrato walks of life, by deprivation of the means *»f support, or by bribery in any form- •Xll wo ask for tho cititon is that when ho con sents,‘for tx decant maintenance for "himifolf and ^family, to serve bis country in an official capacity that he shall not be marked as ono who has thereby ■yielded any atom of tiro fights inherent in everj citizen. With ibis principle, which no citizen should yield ’even for life itself, we nssort that tho Circular which has boen rrconlly issued from the Executive .points at ono class of our citizens to tho exclusion 'of tho great majority, not tramelled with edicts, •Hthe Executive confines himself to Circulars in tended to regulate tlm receipt and collection of tin public moneys, and olhor public duties incumbcn 'upon the citizen holding office, duties prescribed b; the Constitution and the laws, wo have no disposi tion to object to such. I3ul he should not tianscend tiro limits prcscriber by the Constitution, no more than he should "o'or step tho modosty of nature.” Standing as we do on tho broad platform of tin charter of our liberties, whether an officeholder o no office holder, we would opposa any oncroachmcn on our reserved rights ns wo would spurn nny nt tempt to influenco onr course, ns u conductor of free press, by foe nr reward. Tho President of tho parly, which lias laid acquired power, has often inveighed against the extent of Executive potronngc. If ho wishes to be consistent in his professions let him bo sutisned wills tho control ho has over the timid, and tho power to Temove for tho least violation of official duty, in a mural sonse, but if sincere in those professions, let 1dm not strive to control the polidcul actions of the citizen, with which lie lias no right to interfere.— We contend that tho Constitution confers no such Tight. In this wo seem to differ matetiolly from tho Re* .publican. Ho, if wo understand our neighbor, -contends strenuously for tho light of tho Executive to forbid partiian interference, on tho part-of office holders, In popular olcctiont- Wo contend that ho, the Executive, himsulf inlerfcret with tho consti tutional right of thocitlzon, when he directs a tur- @f)e Vol. Ill—No. 5. imposition, fte'ny of llte Postmasters of his teim were whig*, while the offices of clerks at Washing- ion, now sought for by Whig members of Congress, weio crowded by men opposed in political feeling, ui the past administrations. We shall see whether bis forbearance, evincing a tcspect for individual 'pinions, will bo observed, and how far by the Re fomert of the present day. Wo have a shadow of coming events in tho re- moval of such an officer os Mr. Gardner, of the Post Offico Deportment; of Mr. Ilurchurd, and others, whoso only fault, which offundud tho nostrils of hoso in power, is that they wero members of the Jumocrsrtic party, and political fiiends of Mr. Van Jurcn. Horo wo must pause for want of room to continue ho subject at this time, and in tlm meantime pro ont to our readers tho remarks of the Horlford Times on the Circular. THE CIRCULAR. Wo knettr not when we IraVo seen a more impu dent and hypocritical letter, private or public, than his ono of Mr. Webster's, whether proceeding from ho President or from his cabinet. Let us for a mo mont inquire, how tho acts of 'the administration corresponds with tho declaration hero »ct forth. iVhy was John J. Morgan removed from tho office if Collector of tho Pori of New York, and Edward putties unpointed? Mr. Morgan was not a mu titan, and cduhi not come within tho rule here laid down; mt there hi not a more violent nnd furious partisan, him Curtiss. In removing Mr. Morgan,therefore, and appointing Curtiss, the President evidontly in terfored with the elections, nnd intended to intoi ere with them. Why the long Hstof removals that K3” Wo are requested to suite that Mr. II. G, Day, will visit Darien, St. Mnrys, &c, for tho pur pose of procuring subscribers to "Georgia Illustra ted,” &e. VHCENIX RIFLEMEN. J. W. Rabun was yesterday unanimously oleciei Captain of tiro Pbaniix Riflemen, vice J. F. Skour, esigned. others of different politics to All tltcir places, if not to interfere with and influence elections? Why ore tho most violent, and unprincipled pnrtisiyis—men who have been most active in electioneering, select ed fur office ? May office seokers bo parly agent* and party drill tergeanlt, nnd bo promoted because they have been snch, and does the Secretary of State, under such a slate of things issue, under the direction of tho President, such nn edict as till-? To some extent, tho public mind has been dobaucli ed and deceived during the late election, but the people nro not so stuliiliod and besotted as the uu thor of this document supposes. When wo sec the President himself removing some of tho host nnd most responsible officers in tho country, and pulling in tbeir places violent partisans, bankrupt in clnirnc ter, ns they ure in propet ty, what are wo to think of (tils letter? Tills W not llko tho "gold spoon” falsehoods, or tho log cabin and hard elder moon -thine, but is an official fulminution, which nil will compare with officiul acts. It is notorious tlmt dr proved purty scavengers arc among tho prominent applicants fur utlico—that they huso their preton tions on party sorvieos—that their only claim Is, 1 because they have interfered more than nny others in elections, and dono those dirty deeds that men iff character would scorn. Let the rational and liouosi portion of the whig* themselves, reflect on these things—let them sue what the whig* do—lot them roud this letter and contrast its languaga wi.h the acts of removals that have been made, and nra to bn mado.

If in any branch of our country's servico tho right of such interference could be as serted, it might bo in thoso where the strict rules of discipline enable tho officer to iinpono duties on u subaltern sometimes partuking of encroachment on Lis reserved rights. We Imvo often heard of tho noble blood of Ame rica's free born son*, mantling on their chock* when tile tyranny of official power wns exerci sed against tho subaltern, who was too proud to brook any interference with his conduct as a man, while he wa* too boiiotabln togivo any cause for •complaint of his deportment as a soldlor and a gun- Reman.

We would then inquire—if tho Editor condemned the practico then, is it not right to condemn it now? If be did not justify it at that time, would it not be consistent to withhold a justification of the practice now I But wa would remark, that while wo approve •of rotation in office, where the interests of the coun. try will not suffer by tho change, or where such change would not work peculiar hardship to the in dividual not re-appointed, we would disapprove of those ejections from office, made merely to reward the zeal of partisans, while tho Executive so acting professes to secure to the public officer, to the fullest degree, the exercise of the right of suffrage. This we contend is to blow the fire ot one mo ment, and to extinguish it tho next—and so alter (lately. We do not pretend to say that either the indepen dent Jackson or his vinuou* successor were infalli ble and never erred. 'Tia but tha attiihuteof Omni' potanca never to air.
