Avhich is furnished them gratuiiously.
A few remarks of ours, in the Journal
of Ocioher 31, has called forth two col-
umt'^ an.; a half of commir's from the
cdiHji j1 ihv. ^orlh-Carolinu JuurnnU pub
lished in Fayetteville ; .■ 'hmk il proper,
therefore, if not necessary, to notice
some of them. This we shall do as
brielly as possible.
“The maio desijjn of our remarks,”
says the editor of the N. C. Journal,
“seems to he, io attenipt to excite party
feelings, and to commend Mr. Adams as
a {;ood re|)ublican.” 'I'his statement of
cur design is partly correci, and partly
incorrect. It was not our design “ to at-
lenijjt to excite party feelings j” our ob-
jec * Mas to counteract the sinister designs
of o'iiei s in their attempts to excite these
l’e It is well knnwn to everyone
else \ho reads thf* public papers, if r.ot
to :i f idiior of the X. C. Journal, that
an il P.ufMitial portion of the oppositioii to
the j.rc.se.nt adiiiinistration are indefati-
jjublt in tlicir exertions to impress on
the public mind the belief, that Mr. Ad-
uH'b was elected on the ruins of the re
publican party—that his success was a
defeat of the republicans and a triumph
of the federalists-** that ihe cause of Mr.
Adams is the cause of the federal pirty”
—that those who fell with the father,
have risen with the son—that the doc
trines and acts of ’1)8 are to be revived, &c.
Sec8c that those who now oppost; the ad
ministration and tlie t e-e!cction of Mr« Ad-
an's, are genuine republicans of the “old
school,” who alone can cleanse the “ au-
geaii stable” of corruption at \Vashing-
toD, and savp the country from the “ hor
rors of consolidation. ” If the editor o,f
the N. C. Journal does not know that
these are the constant iheme? of cpposi-
tion orators and editors, that these are the
arts w'uch they use to mislead the peo
ple, tt) throw suspicion-on every measure of
th‘j v.dministration and render it unjiopu-
lar, then, we must say, he is strangely
ignorant of past and passing events,
I'o expose these arts, and strip the op-
)osi'ion of its disguise, was our main de-
■gn. We would certainl,y wish, too, to
'Oimend Mr. Adams as a good republi-
an,” because we bi lieve iiim to lie'sucii.

know something of them ; bui v\ e suspect
his knowledge is very limited, if he im-
agini's, that in relation to the present ad
ministration, they are such as he repre
sents them to be.
The editor of the Journal utterly de
nies that Mr. Adams is the candidate of
the federal jiarty. •• What federalist,” he
exclaims, “claims him as the candidate
of his party ? Indeed, he is -none of
theirs. IJe has forfeited all claim to their
support.” Some of his co-workers, we
imagine, will hardly thank him for this:
it casts the lie in the very teeth of their
assertions. Surely, the editor could iioi
have x’eail the ]h>s*on C,ircular : or he
has no confidencr iu the honesty of Icis
worthy conipeci s in that an ..ioH capital.
It may !)e, lujwever, tlii'- seeming
inconsistency ()e'wecn the advoi-»tes of
the* same cause, is only the >lev’1opim ?it
of u concerted plan :—wliile oti>-. class oi
oppoiitionists denoutices Mr. Ad.ji !S as a
fedt-ralisl and the candidate of liie l'edoi\t!
party, in order to excite agair. -'. hi in thr
s'vispicions of the democratic party, the
other is stoutly to deny tliis, and to re
present him as having “ foifeited al!
claim to the support of fedi’ralists j” in
this way they may hope to render lilni an
object of suspicion to both parlies, ain'
deprive him of the cor.fult'iice of eiliu •
