Mend, T. C.. SHARP, Esq., has Incuried
the severe displeasure of Joe

Mormon Prophet. Mn S h arp,. in • his
paper, ventured to give his opinion in
relation•to the Mormons and some of
their leaders, wheraipcin .the, learned
and pious champion of the 4 !new nil=
sion!!„indited._a_letter to_tha editor,_in
which he discourses in the following
chaste-andlegant-strain:— .
" Shi—You will discontinue my • paper—its con-
Sents are calculated to.lmitate me, and to patronize
the filth y sheet - that tissue of , lies-that sink of int
iiplity—is disgraceful to any moral man. Yours,

tbmptible paper. • , J. S."
- From the above. epistle we are in
clined to think that the Prophet is not ,
blessed with a meek andlowly'spirit,
-and that he possesses all the churlish
ness and 'illiberality of some other little

THE VETO POWER.
Theßarrisburg Yeoman of last week
'contains a labored article, to pro_ye that
)
in'ustice has been done •to Governor
rter, on account' of lniTfrequen use
of the Veto Power; and after citing
cases in which that power has been
used by the several Presidents of the
United States; seem, struck With as=
tonishmetit that there should be such a
" fierce Cry out against Gov.' Porter !"
We have no objeCtion to the veto pow
er--Twe know that it has been used
rightly .on iome occasions--we' be
lieye :it to be a salutary provision of
the constitution when Placed in the
hands 'of an honest' Man ; but it 'is a
dangerous power to be wielded by, a
knave. .
It never was intended.. that . the veto
power should "sleep in the constitiition
-as a dead letter,". but. it is a rig t too
sacred to 'be used frequently, and it. is
alarming le . find That GO - Vermir Porta, -
during two years of his admini;tration;
has vetoed more bills than 'all the Pre. ,
sidents, frein - the ekablishnientnf the
nion; down. to the: present day, - niicl
the. GoVernors of Penn‘iyivania which
have preceded him, pietoiether..
But-Governor Porter is: not blame 4
hiq• -.l, ttio frequent . use,;.crf . the
1.-veto.- •power. 3! 'There are; suspicions
2115.aftWif
nest purpose: .Can.any man cite a cake
wherein a President Of the U. tates,
- o - r . a: Gs:Worn&
.of Pennsylvania (with
one exception) eVer vetoed aabill whiCh:
he y -at the same - "time, wished might be
-dome a law? Let' .the Locofoc~s ex=
. . •
amine the -Whig papers, and- they will
find that it is'not- the use, so much as
the' abuse of the veto power, for which
Governor Porter has been—arraigne:k
•
before the people. It hasfbeen.charged
against him that, he vetoed the "Relief
- Bill" - to - please one-§ection-ehis-partyi
and then by threats and promises in
dueedsome of his Tollowers_toxote for
it, so that it , might bedome a law, and
thus gratify the other section;
, a,pd this
charge has not andcannot be dispror
ed.
EMil
We have reason to know, that a lo
cofoco representative, not a hundred
mileS floinCumberland county, who
honestly - opposed to the "Relief
Bill," and could not: be perSuaded eith
er to vote for it dodge the 'question,
was at length-sent for in haste to. the
Eiecutive chamber,.and'there amused
by. the Governor with idle conversation,
until the proper'. time arrived, when he
was let out, and on going into the rep
,res'entative found to his dismay
that the.b . ill-had been passed by a ma-:
jority of two thirds, and
,he was then
refused permission to record his vote
against it ;, and eve know also that this
gentleman complained,, of the deceit
practiced upon him by the . Governor,
in thus placing him in . a false position
before .his ccinstituents..
Such is the low tricllery resorted, to
by Governor Porter to secure his elec
tion for a second term, whil i e the loco
foco press isclaiqiing credit for his wise
and patriotic veto messages! We trust
the people of PennsylVania will place
,
a proper ; estimate on: the character bf
this . map,Airlie- in so_ great -a degree
lacks _the_moraLcourage_to_lichonest—
REMOVALS.
It cannot be disguised, that great disset
.
isfaction exists in the Whig party, - on ac
count of the timid policy of the Adminis
tration,' in not making pros pt removals.—
The people desire.a change of men at; well
as measures, and unless this desire is grati
fied to the fullest extent, the men, now at
the head of one Government; May eventually
lose the confidence of those who have Pla, 7 '
ced them in, power. ,
It is in vain ,to Ouppeie that a change in
the , -Cabinet and chiefs - of Bureaus, is suf
ficient to satisfy the public mind—the peo
ple expect . a thorough referm, for they, well
know :That wbig measures' can never be
,efficiently carried out under locofoco office
holders nor;are the men who are .usually
eieli.Pled - bißlltlumportant offices, alone
tO'be depended on' in extreme poses, 'they,
form a small portion of: the mighty mass
necessary to., produce, a change t' it is ,the

ty; they are pledged to censure and condemn
every measure . emanatingfronn the new ad
ministration, and thoseof them .who are re
tained in effiee—becoming willing instru
ments in the hands of their leaders to otostrate'
the. 'dominant 'party-rWill only thank the
vvhigs for •the.opportunity thus' afforded of
restoring :their old associates to power.
When Gen. - Jacksonwent into'o.ffice, he
and his friendslaid down the'ruldthat "te
-the-victors-belong-the=spoils." . An-indis
criminate removal from office was the con
seqUenee, there was no waiting for charges
against the' incumbents, it was enough to
know that they had not been Jackson men,
to ensure a speedy ejection. - This pro
scriptive system was carried 'on-through
Jackson's time---it • was continued ,with
Worse features`(if 'possible?' during the reign
of Van, Buren, and the. censequence was,
that the •Lcicofoco party had 'effected' an
organization . so Perfect, that it required an
almest -"superhuman- effort-to -Make ithem
relinquish the power which they' were dai-'
ly abusing:
During . a great portion of this time, many
prominent men o'l6 whig party, who. are
now at the head of affairs;• were among the
-- first-to-charge-the--Vatt-Buren-atiministra,
Lion with corruption • and inefficietioy.—
. .:They . asserted -that .eiery .oflice-holder„ of
the General GOVe \ r l ntirtent=ihe Netd .
dent .down to the low.est tide-waiter, was
either nnworthy. r-incompetent, and that
nothing. would; restore .the country to its
nrigittal.parity bUt a-'searching
_reforin—a
radical change OMEN and measu c re's. The
'ieople . fonn4JOAritth:' , of these,charges by
sad experienceOlhey have now'placed -
.the
reins. of Government in -the hands of -men
poisessing .the ability—if they . have. the
plaint, - and. we call upon thosb men
. noiv,
' not to give the_lie 'theirprefessiens,_ by_
retaining in office the very men Whom they
befcire — denbiinced. as totally w orthy
of public confidence. We.: call upon them
to satisfy-the well-founded hopes -of
.the
people, by, making a - .general - sweep . ; and .
if - afterwards_ they_ wish to destroy the
"spoils system,-if they wish to 'eradicate
this desire for-Office, conseqUehrupOn the
defeat 'of one party and the triumph _of
anotherOet them fill up the vacancies,
which almost daily Oceur,_ with men who
are honest - and capable, 'without - reference
to party attachment.
In conclusion, we beg leave - to press Upon
the attention orthe-administration, the fol
lowing letter written by Amos Kendall, to
a c - ommittee.Of his friends, soon: after his
appointment as fourth Auditor of the Trba-
SUIT,
FRANKLIN MILLS. OHIO, Sept. 9, '39.
"To reform measures, thee() must be a
change of melt." " Without a change of
. 4t,i,,,
men, fraud cannot be detec ed ; unlawful
cannot be . stopp ; improper
modes of doing. business, an irregular
practices in office, can never be corrected.
Do-n4t all . offices belong to the People ?=
No tffeng'is done, to the man who is; re
moved, for he. is' deprived pf no right. It
' is the duty.of the President; and all'others
to whom the People have entrusted the
power, to remove their subordinates when
ever they believe the public interest requires
it. So fascinating, is 7- power,,and so cor
rupting the long- possession'of offite, that
I believe the chances for a pure .adininiti
tration, would_ 'be much greater, were, a
limit of eight or' ten years prescribed, be.;
yond which .no man should be competent
to hold any of • the stibordinate, offices at
Washington. • .It is the policy of office
holders to create an impression that their
officeS are private rights; that-they
. were
wronged when removed.; that they have a
right to demand the reasons for their re
moval, and 'have , them 'formally Set :forth.
When the people'assent. to 'a. doctrine like
this, you may bide farewell to all . hope of
reform,' however great may be the abitses
()four Government. ' We shall have Clerks;
Auditors, Comptrollers,. ttegiSters,.Treas
'niers, and Secretaries, for life; bad customs
will never be,correcteil ; enormous princi
ples will prevail forever ;
..prAcedent will
take the place Of laws
_;' the official corps
at Wighingten-• will govern 'the- Union ;
add if we do.nat have Presidents for ,life;
r' 'e - shallhave - entailed upon Ata'forever,„a
succession from one office tn.ofitother, pre-,
serving the unity of
.the official plialAtix,
and perpetuating all' their . opinions and
'abuses. In my opinion, the. people have
More . cautTe — to - fear too few removals than
too , many." •

ARRIVAL OF THE;LUMBIA..
We

the Steamship Coluimbia arrived on the, 18th.

the Captain (Arbtihnot)• of which states
that on the 27th Way, at 5 A. M., lat. ' , 47

he saw a very large steamer steering to The •

'on tfie maintoprnast, a - topgallantsail on the

-The steamer was making very slow pro
gress. This intelligence_comm,unicated by
Captain Arbuthnot; has excited the most
intense interest here, and nsany persons
hattirto concurrent circumstan
ces; it may be the President and probably
the steamer seen by the Porjugnese brig '
Conde de :Palma, on the g,3(April, in lat.

be the Britannia steer, from Halifax, but
this impression is by.no means 'general. --1
Towards the closoTof the . , day, the opinion
is very_etrong that the vessel seen by the

but it is of best mere 'conjecture.

EXTRACT FROM THE ANSWER.
I was rich pleased with the former pint
of your 'description of; the social circle. in
which you aro moving; but the latter. por
tion. of it is in striking contrast, exhibiting
evils which If would fain hope might be .

be almost unavoidable._ The large number

have long thought particularly out of place,
in villages; - it always has the .complexion
there of a foolish:aping of city habits' which
are entitely•ubcOngeniSFwith the style of
the country. This mode pf talking is, the
result of a degree of forniality which ill
adopted-in-cities, because of the promiecu- : .

this result be necessary or no 4 it:would - no

a more literary vein of thought into' our
conversation 'and, by giving more time .to

that character., In_the_country, however,_
Suet] formality is not 'r'equisite; every body
is well known; anil - the chief enjoyment to
be experienced there,, s in 'approaching as

to man thii enjoyment by adopting all the

distressing,Uf, not more so. In this city

there are so few- public institutions and other
