Our Country presents a new spectacle for
the contemplation of ra a o k in d . 2 Kendall.
By your leave, Messrs Editors, we will make
la few strictures on Mr. KeridaJI's i ncic spccla
tie," iq the aspect he has chosen to present it ia
his late Address to 'the People of.lhe Uv States.
And,rn'pa5srtnf, examine whether he has as
sumed a mask or shownVa true.face. -
Aiming at brevity,. we will dash at once info
the subject deal fairly - with him,' and-ask hitn
no odds.. -.r '' YY''''-' :?- ":" ' Y ;-- :
j Mr. Kendall's first assumption is in substance,
thai General Harrison has continually refused
io make known his political sentiments to the
People whose soffrage he 6olicit9. We, in reply
say, that the sentiments of Harrison have been
openly and candidly expressed on various occa
sions ! Have never been concealed nor denied ;
and that they are in unison with the whole ten
or of his public life! Details in proof, would
merely insuli the common understanding swell
this communication and be a needless repeti
tion of the well known facta. We, iberefbre,
pronounce Kendall's first charge 'designedly

If Mr. Kendall can be believed, the 'military
glories of Gen. Harrison, are now for the first
time discovered, after an oblivion of twenty-five
years!! ! Mr. K most think that (ihe people
either have very short memories, or that he can
persuade them to prefer his ipse dixit to ihe
perceptions of their own minds, pray, who
now treats ihe people- with contempt ? bee be
