THE SECOND INSTANCE;
A document has just been communicated to Con

the several Presidents, since 1 789. On examination,
we find that Gen.. Daniel's case, is the second in
stance only since the foundation of the Government,
where a Public Officer has been superseded in North
Carolina. No wonder therefore, that the People should
be so excited about the matter, and that the public sen
sibility should be so shocked. The first case was that
of Thomas D. Freexaw who was superseded as Sur

the report of our informant is "true to the letter," and
