Governor know what this conduct Las betu? Is bo
to minutely learned in the mysteries of brerct rank,
that bo is qualified ex cathedra, to pronounce the de

the Executive wouliT not have selected Gen. Scott, an

Lad it thought him entitled to the distinction by rank?

sweep mg denunciations are exceedingly discreditable
It*a man’s understanding. They argue more zeal tLan
judgment, and more prejudice Ilian power of discrim
ination. We me awry to see such a spirit in our
E:eut. Governor; some of whose opinions wo admire
very macb: that ono for example which urges the no
eessity of “rotation lu I'Uice,1’ us having “a tendency
»<» purify, and by consequence to preserve Ecpubli
cao institutions.” That is a sentiment woithy of all
acceptation, and of <Hcittiunal practical illustration.
His Vice Excellency gave a second toast, even
marc absurd mid unjust than (he one tve hare review
ed. It ivas,
“Henry (.lav and Ids hast of affidavit men: Tlieir
bungling efforts to exculpate each other, have betray
fcu the clearest jirooid of their mutual (juiSt.*1
Tim is indeed a very weak, ill natuied and iii con
trived toast. The expression “affidavit men,” is de
signed wo presume, (o indicate Licet. CtiVerr.o:'
distrust of tbs veracity of Mr. Clay’s friends, who have
incurred Mr. Daniel’s resentment by their testimony in
bis defence. The term “affidavit men.” is used cur
rently to rcproac.i such iv.tncsses, as hare tnoro regard
v'» the effect tlnn tha truth of their testimony. Does
the most Christian and charitable Limit. Governor then,
mean to call i 1 question tho veracity of the numerous
gentlemen whose letters Mr. Clay has published? ’,Vas
It Lis purpose to insinuate Lis want of confidence in tb
truth of John Crittenden, Geo. flulertson, Charles S.
Todd, Gan. Beecher. Judge Thompson, Judge J. Lil
ian, James Barbour, Johnson, Tiirr.bcll, and Vancu_
men of tec times Ins talents, and foity times his public
rdandiog? D-d the gentleman rctl.ct that Gen. l.a
uyelto was among these “affidavit rr.cn?” Does he
"I™1* UK* imputation ot acquitting
Tdr. Clay at the expense of his duty to truth?
We have exhibited the wretched malignity of the
i.ieut. Governor*s toasts, because notwithstanding his
published opinion, that “rotation in office has n&tcn
denoy 10 purify, and by consequence to preserve, He
publican Institutions,” be i3*1/7 Lieut Corernor, ami
trom no fear that tho public wa3 not abundantly qual
ltieJ to detect tbeir deleterious ingredients. Had they
fallen frorualcs3grc.it man, tt-c should not have im
peded their passage to oblivion, or attempted to shar
pen the reprehension with which we have been j-ersurt
ded they will be received by all just *i,J candid men.
If one hast the right, as undoubtedly he has, if ho eboni
es to exercise if, to void Upon whole bodies of absent
men, bis dark suspicions and indiscriminate denuncia
tions, another, u bq_ is the personal fripnd of many of
tlrem, has the les9 questionable and more piecing right,
to attempt their vindication.
Cut, ito turn horn these exhibitions of fierce intol
erance a ad political hydrophobia with pleasure, a
class of toasts of another description:
