Kentucky Gazette

Is there nothing new under the sun?

The Intelligencer, and even 'C. of the Intelligencer,' has approved of one act of Gen. Jackson! and that not the exercise of the veto power!! Who, who has read the Intelligencer for the last few years, would have expected that print, and especially under that signature, to have given its sanction to any act of General Jackson's? If our recollection does not deceive us, the Intelligencer has been vehement for withholding the veto power from the President—yet, in that paper of Friday last, is the following compliment to the President, and reprimand to Congress.

"The President has vetoed a bill limiting the length of future sessions of Congress. We are inclined to the opinion that the veto power has been here correctly applied. Hasty legislation had made a turbulent and headstrong Congress do a foolishly improper and unconstitutional thing, and the palpable error has met its proper remedy. C."

The introductory remarks of the Commonwealth to the correspondence between Col. G. W. Chambers and Mr. Secretary Cass, we should consider anything else than complimentary to its own party. We can only understand the latter clause as either admitting that no volunteers were to have been expected from that party, or that it was the practice of "fighting against truth, common sense, and the common interest of the country."
