For the Gazette of the United States.

MR. WAYNE,

I have read the address of Mr. Worrell in the Aurora in consequence of the paragraph in your paper of Saturday last: and altho' I agree both with Mr. Worrell and your paragraphist, as to the, propriety of chusing a Veteran Stable Keeper for the office of Stable Cleansing, I still have my doubts as to the meaning of the writer of the address——

My opinion is that both Worrell and Israel are disappointed men, angry at the late appointments of Governor M'Kean. "Vain," says the address, "Vain will be your efforts to purify the higher departments of your government if you neglect those of inferior grade." This is evidently aimed at the Governor, who having filled the higher departments with old tory guides to the British army; persons accused of theft, of blasphemy, &c. embracing, in short, the whole catalogue of crimes; hence Israel and Co. are for availing themselves of the present popular clamours to get into office; but the public ought to be on their guard, for it is asserted by several who know the parties, that they are, not staunch in their present politics; they have only taken a hint from Tench Coxe, and will probably veer about again the moment they get into office; that they are only imposters may be seen, by a pretended fellow feeling, while seeking the office of sheriff

"In this boasted land of liberty," say they, "we behold citizens (meaning convicts) immured in prisons, &c." —here is affectation for a sheriff!! who knows that the confining of persons is almost his only business both of trust and of profit.

Can it be supposed that his real intention if chosen, is to neglect both his duty and interest?

A QUERIST.
