collision with my associate, requested an intercnangc
and comparison of political views, lor the purpose ot
ascertaining whether such collision were probable.
A conversation ensued, the substance of which I teel
compelled to repeat; for so deplorable is the base
ness of Dull Green, that I cannot consent to the nn-
mtation of having agreed with him in any thing,
without giving to the public a full explanation.
In this conversation, I frankly and explicitly stated
mv views concerning some of the questions that would
probably be agitated, either during the contest then
DCnd'insr. or after the election of General Jackson ;
fctiarticolarlv conceniiuii protection to manufactures,
and the Presidential election after General Jackson's
retirement, for even at that period, before his elec
tion, a contest for his successor was anticipated.
Upoa the first question I statcti that, aitiipagh deci
dedly in. favor of the protective system, I was the ad
vocate ot a tan It that would equally proieci me ag
riculture, cojhmcrcc and manufactures of the Union,
and opposed to all violent changes in the domestic.
orforeh'n relations oi the country, or to sacruu mg

Upon the second question I stated, that I had some
t unes"liea rd f Wo u istinnihed rfid'rriduaft,-the- om
from New Yflric,- tlie oh?r -from innitlv - Carolina,
mentioned as likely to become opposing candidates,
and that of these two, iny individual prelerence
might he for the former; but that, having alway
been a republican of the .strictest school, I should
support the candidate, whoever he miu'l.t be, that
should he designated h the republican parh of the
nation. Tl.us apparently coinciding in opinion, ve

from any participation in such course.
the county, and in cases where there is no paper
in the count), these officers should be compelled
to advertise them in the nearest paper to tlm-.
,t the first view of the subject, it would appear to
be incurring ail unnecessary rxpense; but in ten
cases out of twelve, it would make property soid
bring 40 per cent more than in the way these
are now elfected : for this verv important rea- r

cases he never sees the advertise neat at all. I liese
notices do not give the public sufficient noticr, to
draw together any thing like a proper numb, i of
people to make the articles sell for half ih u vat ic.
Would it not her expedient for the Legislature, at
its next session, to pass an act compelling officers to
advertise such sales in some convenient newspaper

a brief hirtoi r of mv connection v.ith this man, which
I am constrained to ivckon aii.ong tne mosi uuionu-
nate events of my life, as having associated my name
in any manner, with that of one whom all honest and

In the summer of 1 827, a member of Congress from
out the country, lheseatot Uovernment was se
lected as the proper position for a central p'resa,4iom
which hght and heat should he imported to its aihh
ted prints, vV, in which as a focus, the native rays ema
nating from these prints should be collected. In fnr
theraoce of this plan, the Tellegraph wa established

In advertii g, on a former occasion, to the phrase
JklNEX.rRfcSSIbLK AND UNAPROACH AULE INFAMY," ap
plied to the Telegraph by a celebrated forensic
orator, we remarked that the peculiar appropriateness
of the designation was felt by his audience. In
aoopting It, Air. Jarvis has no doubt been prompted
by his conviction ol its fitness, arising horn former
acquaintance ; and we wtuld recommend it as a

""Few situations, perhaps, cab be more annoying to
those who value the good opinion of honest and hon
orable men, than being compelled to notice the slan
ders and maledictions of individuals, who, utterly
base and worthless in themselves, are yet elevated,
by a singularly unfortunate concurrence of circumstan
