The President nominates the heads of diMinrtnwn.a to mull as foreign ministers, and ir no man is qualified to succeed him without hating Ailed these offices, die consequence is, that the President has, in effect, the appointment of his own successor, and nil that ia the people is, to ratify the nomination madoby him, or, at most, to se loctoneout of four of his friends and sunnortera. Th iaie riTsiueni appninr. a Mr. Adams Secretary of State, Mr. Adams is entitled to be Presid and, for a similar i-eason. Mr. Clay must suc ceed Mr. Adams. ' dmit this, and your rigljt of suffrage exists only in form; your Chiei' Magistrate ceases to be elective, and-vou . to be freemen. - ' ' . ' ",' v, . s ;v But it must be co'ifesscd thatiin the hierh stations which .IVf e.' Aitania filled before his advancement to his present office, abundant opportuiii ty was given him to se. ve bis qonntry. If, then, he possesses the great abilities which his advocates chalteiiM for iiim. we should be able tn trace their operation in the benefits they have conferred.' Yet hiVdi- l-ioinacy uas gainea no au vantages to his country from foreign powers; for, though we have much boasting of his skill, no instance is produced of commercial advantages having been procured, enlarged or perpetu ated by his many negotiations. If,' then, he has been able to serve us, he has not been solicitous to do soj or if bis willingness be admitted, his ability must be de.ied. . - No result more fayoiableto Mr. Adams will be obtained frdin an ex amination of his career as President. He has. in his iufficial naoers. proiiiulgated prracipleg equally false and dangerous. . By 'fixing the source of, political power in the mural, political and Intellectual im- provemeni assigneu 10 man uy tue author ol his existence!'---' in the moral purposes of the Creator," and by assigningto its extent Only the imicnnue umuauon oi " uefiering me conuitiou or man,'; be lias, effect,' displaced the Constitution ffora its rierhtfuf supremacy. It true that society, that is, the people at large, derive the supreme pow er from the moral Governor of the Universe, and are only limited in itsexercise by. his benevolent purposes for their moral and liitejlectu al improvement; but their servants derive such portions only of this supreme power as the people choose to give, and are bound to exert it tor such ends and to confine Jt witluii such bounds asarurescribed by the people themselves. ,: It him been attempted to conceal this political heresy jpf Mr. Adams under the dextrous assumption that he meant only to assert with piety the superior obligations of his oath of office. Wow the obligation ot Ins oath cannot come in question at all. - .That is confessed on all hands to be supreme; but the innuirv is, to what did It bind him?

How does this differ from the divine right claimed by Kings? Mr." Adams receives his office from tin?
