The elegant, well reafaned, and correft ElTay, from the pen of a scholar, and from the head of a politician, *ho stiles himfelfan " Amekican Fkder alist," will be in serted as f-oB as poifible. At this interefc.

But, our correspondent from New-Jeiley, who I,at so JOgchiioufly defended the ebweb and the iUtefcgainft the rude battery of Bloomjiud and the £ibtle sap of Sayre,J may rely on our soon giving his produdlion to the public.

Perhaps, as the learned and acute writer proj-ofe* to expand his topics, it weie better for him to print it in the pamphlet form. With a very little trouble it ought be thus ananjetj. in * few days.

P.ttract of a letter from a Gentleman in Eu raj>e t> bis fiend in America, dated July xotb tSoo. I am much obliged to yon tor ysur infor mation", your papers, and your pamphlets. I fee the e!eitior.eering campaign has begun at a very early period indeed, and with equal inveteracy, and ability on the part of oppofitjori. That tie y pimping to the popu lar passions, upon wh.cli all the Jicbltt Cabals are founded. is but too wt U calculated to furceed in i country like ours. I ceshist its m tit bottom nf my soul, h»t I ha\e ton I' rite witnessed its effic cy not to b cyn ftl'Mis ot it. When I fee Governor M'Ke: n and Edward'Livitinftone, b iomethe pai.e gyrifts of Washington, I cannot h«lp think' i ing of Bo leiu's lines. Je croif voir le diaMe " qtic Oie« force a luuer lei Saints," " I thi: k I hohold the D' Til " Whom G»d corneals to ftraife tfceS»!i:ts'' You obftrve, that it is furprifinq; to P e how pliable the tempers of people are, a. « I how generally they follow the torrent of political fuccrfs. Bit fucli is the nature of the human heart. When Governor M'Kean turns out of office, old, meritorious]fufFers in J the cause of our Revolution, to nuke w;:y for his own and his creatures, his par ty ca»e not a fig for the Inconfiltencv of such conduct, with hispr sessions of Repub lican purity ; or rather t'ley feel there is no j inconfiflency in it. The objeft in both in (lances, is the fame. The profeffions are made to ftrenjtlien his party. The offices are taken from his opponents, and given to , his friends, to flren ;the'n his party. The profeffinns are like "Hodge's Rafors," mid-, not for yfe, but for sale, and when they have anfwertd their puipofe, 5t is ridiculous < to think of returning them upon the fellers ■ hands. He has got his money, nd may botdly laugh at the dupes who took Ins razors on ■ tlie preemption that they woul.l shave. Ihe fir *tafk of public spirit has so often, and lo long b.en worn to cover the foul vifri'e'of private interrft, ard m.lignant ; pa.'lions, that if it were susceptible of decay, it would long (Ince have been worn out. But as it has always been used fuccefsfully, so it will continue to succeed as long as there shall be on earth, men to che.it and be cheated. Nor is it of much confrquence how thin the difguifeis, since a Cooper can assume it with as bold a face, as a M'Kean. To a mail of the philosophical School of 1 imon, a pamphlet like that of Cooper's trial, mud be a valuable fraft. Jlere is an expatriated Englilh Patriot, who turns to a flaming American patriot, who begs for an offi e, to which he could not have the lead pretension, of a man whofr political op ponent. he owns he had been, as holding him unfit for his Ration from want of capacity ; who upon meeting the nfufal, which in every refptft he deserved, lays up his re sentment carefully for two years, untill the time approaches, which is to dclignate the ditpenfer of offices ; and then seizes the only moment when he thinks he can do harm to libel the man ot whom l.e had begged in vain, far office ; and now talks of his facrifices for the public, with as bold a face as. if he were a real Dtcius. Boafls of his manlintfs. I'ecaufe the tone in which he tor office, wa» surly and not servile ; the growling of a MddifT, and not the,fawn ing of a f, aniel for the lop ; and of hispu.ity from vindiftive motives, because he waited two years to exhale his venom ; knowing that the objeft againfl which he meant to dart it, would then be mod within his reach.
