heady beginning to see that the cause of morals

political faction that moment it sowed the seeds

. ares of Jacksonism to render it fit to be ‘ burned.’

To the Jackson editor of the Anti-masonic In-
telligencer we say, you may work your card as you
please, you cannot bring the honest members of
lyour party in Fairfield County, to second your
schemes. They know what Jacksonisiii means,
and they know who are its advocates among us,—
and thatis enough for any decent man to know,-
and they thank no man to throw away arguments
to convince them as to their duty to the country
under circumstances such as present themselves
at the present crisis.

CHURCH AND STATE.

It seems to have been the design of the divine
author of the Christian religion that it should not

_ be sustained by secular power; for wherever this
is been done it has lost most ofits primitive vir-
tues and beauties. “lhenever legal enactments
have been made to support certain sectarian opin.
ions, persecution and bloodshed have generally
followed. The fact seems to be demonstrated,
that christiaaity cannot be enforced by human uti-
Iiority without being dcfilcd. lts divine author
undertook it.-i guardiansliip,and promised that" the
gates of hell should not prevail against it,” and
the various religious establishments in the world
have resulted only in promoting ambition and by-
_ pocricy, and in extarminating all these. lovely vir-

FOR 'riri-: ivoitw.u.K csznrrn.
In the last Stamford Sentinel, I noticed a very

lar quotation, and winding of with about as singu-
larn signature. The communication was on the
recent appointment of Post Master in this village;
the quotation, “ Rightly to be great, is not to stir
w thout great argument ;" and the signature, (go
to the dictionary, reader.) “ Mollifier.” Now,
" Molly,” excuse the abbreviation,—l hate long
words, ) seems to be in it great pet because a cer-
tain correspondent of yours who styles himself
" -l"5ll09." " professes to reside in Wilton.”——
“ Molly” says she “ resides in and belongs to the
53m9 WWII 3" and spits in great deal offlre at “ Jun-
ltce,” for no other reason that Ican see, than thnt
ll“ " P70935888" to be a fellow townsman of hers,
and yet has the " impudence" to express a “ wish"
on a subject which she confesses neither oftliem
l"“'‘3 ‘"3! “Sill 10 meddle with. I have known
old iii‘-iids as consistent before. But, (to put Mol-
ly into breeches,) it requires no great sagacity to
perceive that he does not belong to Vvilron. The
motto which caps his communication ofitself suf'.
ficiently discloses the cloven foot which he tries so
hard to conceal. Ilis practice has for a long time
well accorded with this standard of greatness, and
every one at all acquainted with Esq. Molly knows
that he never " stirs without great (long) argu-
ments " But he has not yet resided quite long e-
nough within six miles of Wilton to qualify him-
self as the inoiith piece of that town on any sub-
ject. And I have reason to believe that the
old republicans of \‘Viltou would be as loth to own
hiin asa fellow citizen, as he is to recognise the
claims of “ Justice." IrVithout doubt he is well
pleased ‘ivi ii the present location of the post office,
(to say nothing ofthe incumbent) inasmuch as it
saves him the trouble of a daily walk across the
Bridge. But he has the effroutcry to challenge
" Justice" to shew that the appoitment was made
against the wishes ofthe people of Norwulk l Does
Esq. Molly think that because he refused to sign it
paper which contained the names of a vast majori-
ity ofthose who had the “ iinpudeiice” to express
a “ wish” on a subject in which they were deeply
interested, that. therefore this paper was no indi-
cation of the feelings of our citizens 1 Those who
live in glass houses should be cautious nofto throw
stones. Let Esq. Molly challenge the Hon. VVm.
1‘. Barry to shew him a single recommendation
from this town, of the present incumbent, for the
oflice which he hold.-i,senton to Washington before
the appointment was made, and then he may, ifhe
chooses, call for the recommendation of other ap-
plicants. But Esq. Molly seems to no perfectly
well szitisfldd that any man is compeleiit to dis-
charge the duties ofeny oflice so long as “ his in-
tegrity is undeubed," and he is not “ grossly im'
moral E” Now the people of this town would like
it much better if Esq. Molly would attempt to show
them what their Post master is, rather than what
he is 9iot.i§}'1'liey have a right to claim that the in-
cumbent of so responsible an office shall be a man
who not only deserves, but actually possesses their
fullest confidence and respect. But the ’Squire,
not content with singing the praises of his post of-
fice friend, launches out into that sort of blackguard
which is so characteristtcof the StamfordScntinel.
However, as his remarks on other matters than the
post eflice concern you more particularly thanjthey
do our towns people in general, (except it be cer-
tain literati, whom he sqnints at most feitrfully,and
who,I doubt not,aie able to fight their own battles,)
I shall leave them for you to overhaul; and con-
clude by assuring the Squire that he will hereafter
be closely watched, and all his future “ mollifica-
tiom" will be promptly noticed as they deserve, by
the much abused and indignant ' '
People of Norwalk.

BRIBERY.-—-According to the Jackson

editors, the editors of the Courier and Enquir-

er, Webb &. Noah, were bribed by the U. S.

Bank. At this dereliction of principle they

affect a great abhorencs of feeling,‘ so far as
Mr. Webb is concerned, but not at single

word is uttered by them with regard to Mr-

Noah. When the loans were made by the
Bank to the concern, Webb and Noah were
equally interested, and the first l5,‘000 dollars
was obtained by Noah with the aid of Mr.’
Webb‘s endorsement. [low is it then, asks
the Telegraph, that three-fourths ofvthe rev-
enue of the United States iscomrnitted to the
care of a. man, who was bribed to sell his
principles and_his character, by the paltry sum
of seven thousand five hundred dollars! The
firat, loan from the bank, which it is charged
was the bribe thrlt bought the Courier and Eit-
quirer, was $|5,000,. and Webb_-and Noah
were partners. It is clear. that if. as the
