for a free people to imitate the model of
monarchs, or follow the example of Lm

from whence the -President takes his pro

themselves. No. They., arc goVvrticd by

taxes drawn from tin: ir pockets to fill the
Royal treasury. In thiscountry, the eo
ple own all private and public money; and

But if we rightly interpret Hus circular,
it is nothing more norless than a call upon
Postmasters, as officer of tlie Government,
for pecuniary aid to roll forward the shackled
car of modern Democracy, it virtually says
Come, now, you hold your office under
Mr.S'anlJuren, and you ought to doall in
your power to, secure his re-election."
This is tlie avowed doctrine of the day-
every office must be put in requisition, and
every officejiolder called to action to save
the sinking fortunes of tlie, present incum
bent of the Presidential chair. Fortunately
for our section of the country, we believe
that the most of those in office, as well as
is
the mass of the people generally, cannot
be made the subservient tools of party of
power. . . i
- The prospectus of " Tlie Magician's
Wand,", is as remarkable as the circular:
Tlie publishers make repeated calls on
" Men and Democrats;" whether i they
really consideif Democrats as a different
race of beings from men, we cannot cer
tainly tell ; but they so address them.
The whole, however, is Init.a specimen
of what is daily occurring among the jmrly
