NEW-HAMPSHIRE'S VOICE.

The Boston Patriot calls the National Administration, a federal Administration. The most complete refutation of this silly story is the fact that the Boston Patriot, now as decidedly a federal paper as any in the land, opposes the National Administration. The notions of the editor of the Patriot on the subject of republicanism and federalism may be learned from the fact that he calls in his paper, Tristam Burgess (who compared democracy to the "GREAT RED DRAGON of the Apocalypse") a republican. No wonder therefore, that the Boston Patriot pronounces the National Administration, composed of democrats dyed in the wool, a federal Administration, notwithstanding its head, Andrew Jackson voted for the repeal of John Adams's tyrannical laws, and defended his country at New-Orleans when the federal aristocracy of New-England (to whom the Boston Patriot is now a tool and drudge) were preparing to dissolve the union.--Boston States.
