Whatever of "swallow in up there' has been of this money, may thus be attributed to Democratic Leaders. If l!.a Jejersonian puts a wrong fcc on thb matter, and attaches guiil In the disposal of surplus money, that guilt belongs to his own party. CjI the mon ey h never swallowed on nor lost; i uo oiaie debt was paid with it, which was one good thing at least. And what some may think another good thinij is, that several good demo. crats have a part of this money on loan, un der the direction of the Literary Board.

This, being, from tho importance cf the port, a subject of some distinction, ana rutner more than ordinary public note, as i3 obvious from numerous . dcn.j r.wirations, in various quar. tors', hot limited by, or ascribable to, personal partiality, there are anxious inquiries forjthe reasons of ihe proposed step. Is there any defalcation-in tha public funds? any want of talent, industry, or efficiency in the man. t.gerrlenl of the "public business ? any injus tice "or oppression to or upon private individu als?" In short, any mal-adminisiralion or official misconduct ?To all these inquiries thero is - a universally negative - response.; 1 will not dwell on what others say ; but Vou say yourself, unreservedly, that he is an able and upright officer i that he discharges the ar. dous duties of his trust without impeachment orl exception ; and that there is not a more efficient Executive agent under .the Govern, nieni , JSxcuse me for what m3y, possib1y?be considered somewhat digressive. 1. . t : Well,,lheh, I 'repeat, what are the .reasons for his removal ?. Why, without, odverting to nignificant tnfl.s and circumstances of a personal character and of no weight, he, is, It 'is said, not sufficiently popular in New York," whilst a little- contemptible press, and perhaps ad expression furtively obtained from a collection of n few indivduals, intriguingly managed, "resolved that he is not a genuine Diirnocrat, (of their creed,) whilst at the same time the genuine Democracy of the city and state testify to ihe v contrary. The. agitators are met and confronted on their own ground, at. their meetings, out-voted, routed, and de feaied! The mercantile; and business com. munity with one acclaim pronounce themerh of the collector ! .
