For Conservative objects, or for 'practical measures of general good, lte._can form a strong government; but for.evil, opposed to opinion, he is powerless. We do, not say that bad measures cannot be car ried;. Tor bad measures are often not unpopular: but no measure adverse to pi blic opinion can be passed in the teeth of an oppositio e two hundred and ninety strong, exasperate ed by . defeat„ active, unscrupulous, an backed by the returning spirit of the coup-. try.

AN 1-10NOIMBI;E OPPONENT. • We`copy the following extract from a letter in the Delphi (Ind.) Express, written by Mr Samuel Malroy, late Indian Agent. What a severe rebuke it is to those Who'are :raisin the eryof '!proscription" and whin ing over the loss of office. Mr. Milroy talks like a man. We like to deal With such opponents. After quoting extract froth tholetter, informing him o his remo val, he says--" Prom the above the public will 'oe apprised . that I am no longer Indian Agent; those having „business with the Agency wilt apply to Mr. Hamilton, Fort • Wayne. ~As to the appointment I would remark it is a judicious one, and will be. satisfactory to the Indians. Ai to being superseded; allow me to remark, that I net.' ther,desired nor expected to be continued in The agency, nor do Iconsider it injustice to have to give, place to - the friends of the administration.. It is but reasonable to ex pect they would call on their friends to - aid in carrying out the public.. service.
