In Gen. Washmctoii's Administration
ol eigltt years there were but nine remo
vals ; in John Adams's of four vears, but
ten ; in Ihoinas Jefferson V, of eiaht years
'but thirty-nine ; iu James Mad. sou's, (in

but five, of. which three were defjiiUers,

he acted up to them ! J
Secondly. In appointing as he d;d, soi
many Members of Congress to ofiicc, he!
directly trnnsceuded the principles whirh
he had himself laid down, rn the reproba

to the Legislature of Teiinessee, resia;n
ing his trust .as a Senator of the United
States, (1 4th Oct. 1825) he strongly re
commended an amendment .to the 'Con
stitution to prevent Members offonjres
from being appointed lo olfiro by the Pre
sulent, and in reference to that practice,
used tin following strong language : If
his change in tiie Constitution ah an Id not
be obtaincl. and important appointments
continue to devolve upon the Represent
atives iff Congress, it requires no depth
of thnuejit to iie convinced, that ctirriip
lion will brcovic the order of ihe ly i and
that, under the garb of conscientious sa
crifices to establish precedents for the
public gnod, evils of serious importance
to ihe freedom and prosperity of the Re
public may arise.'' This was said oYTJ.'-

then recent selection bv Mr. Adams of

The passage had nndoubred reference

of it was, that two or three printers of the
