Mr. AJen in giving this toast did not in
tend giving t slap at Mr, Jefferson for his fa
mous inaugural essay, in which are conlpu
cuous the following word u We are all re.
publicans, we- are all federvUsts," though it
certainly bat a squinting that way. That i!e

condemn itt author for having a htUer
theory than practice. U the aatertion is un
true, then Mr. Jefferson it condemnable for
giving currency to a falshood,; If, on the con ,
trary it be true, then it .the tame cxslied
personage,' condemnable for an unpaidona
