Master Brooks, of the ISew YorkExpres,, (the National In telligencer's letter writer,) marks the oppres sed Irish, struggling for an equality with the other subjects of the British Government, as assassins, vhile the English reformer is char acterized as an infidel an agrarian a mc bocrat, "running the banks" and all this simply because he asks another constitution" iiKe our own a character right of suffrage: Globe. "The Chartist of Ireland per contra, (says the Express,) often resorts to assassination for redress. The Chartist of England thinks of running the banks, mobbing classes of peo ple richer than he is, and uprooting society form its very foundations. Infidelity and agrarianism make up a large share of his prin ciples." "ite day of Prosperity." "The country has called for Clay in its time of trouble; it now seeks to honor him in its day of prospe rity." The above extract, from an Opposition quarter, does not exactly accord with the no tions of the Star and Express, that the coun try is ruined over and over again by the modern Attila, instead of being in its day of prosperity. Glooe. The Wheeling Times, a warm Opposition paper, makes the following acknowledgement: "The Democratic papers are acknowledged by all parties to be the most correct in their election returns, and to possess the most ac curate knowledge of approaching elections." The reason they love light better than darkness. Globe. r Loco Focos. The editor of th Indiana Democrat in reply to one of his correspon dents, said that the word loco foco, applied to the Democrats by the opposition, is taken from the name of a match used in lighting up dark places. The loco focos he said are the light of the political world to radiate through the darkness of amalgamation, abolition and whigery, till all this mass of fag ends ot fac tions become dispersed. - The term loco foco lsasood one very appropriate. Ihe first apostles who carried out light to a heathen world were called "the lights of the- world, or in substance "loco focos." One of them was called "a burning, a shining light;" a great moral loco foco match, to blaze and glow in the gloom which surrounded him. As the whigs are everlastingly changing their name, we venture to predict that before many years they will call themselves the loco foco whigs. Webster JSTotio. We conclude that the fol lowing motto has lately been adopted by Dan iel Webster, taken from Cumberland's poems: "The first of pleasures Were" to be rich myself; but next to this I hold it best to be a parasite, Jlnd feed upon the rich. JVeio Era. Wellerisms. "Variety is the spice of life," as the Feds said ven they took the name of Whigs. ' "Sure bind, sure find," as John Bell said ven he pledged the people of Tennessee to the Tories of the Hartford Convention. "Go home, G d -d m you," as Henry Clay said in Congress, ven he should have been saying his prayers. "I could'nt help it," as Joe Kitner said to Nick Biddle, ven he asked him why the d 1 he spent so much money, and let Porter beat him after all. "I'm off," as Sam Swartwout said, ven the Conservatives told him the Democrats would convict them as particceps criminis. President's Visit. The illiberal and abu sive course of the Whigs of New York city, towards the Chief Magistrate of the Repub lic, on his passage through that city towards the place of his birth, has operated most dis astrously for themselves. It has given the people, the true people, the independent De mocracy, a chance to act on their own hook; and the money princes the merchant prin ces cannot arrogate to themselves the hon or of being obeyed by the people over whom they affect to have the control. Simpletons that they were, they, supposed that their own contempt for the head of the Democratic party, would be readily imitated by the peo ple and "that ajew ragged Locofbcos, on ly," would be drummed together, to do hon or to the iavorite of the Empire State. How cruel has been their disappointment ! ! The reception of the President at New York has been one of the most signal demonstrations of a people's regard for a public benefactor, that has been witnessed since the visit of the illustrious Lafayette! Buffalo Republican. "Some of the Boston Federalists have pre sented Daniel Webster with a suit of clothes whereupon the Boston Post groweth poetical and discourseth as follows: DANIEL'S WHIG SUIT. When Dan, seas o'er, surveys the clothes With which tie Whirgies have arrayed him, A smile ill light his visage grim At thought of what a fit they ve made him. Thus his soliloquy will run . 'My person sure, the Whigs bewitches, They've furnished me with suits before, But not with such pair of breeches!' Jill Hail Middlesex. The election of County Treasurer which has just taken place in Middlesex, resulted in the choice of Mr. Butrick the Democratic candidate, by a ma jority of 1496 over all others. This is a GAIN of over 1500 votes since last fall when the whig senators were chosen. Old Mas sachusetts is coming! JUr. Forsyth. His letters, whilst the French question was pending, are models of appropriate diplomatic writing. Their quali ties were brevity, diguity and force, the true emanations from the official pen- of a nation towards the close of a long dispute in which she felt conscious of being in the right, and had a reliance in her power; and whoever de sires to see a succinct and able statement of the complicated boundary question up to the 28th of April, 1835, would do well to read Mr. Forsyth's letter of that date, to Sir Charles Vaughan, written by President Jackson's direction in reply to certain observations on the question, submitted by Sir Charles, under instructions from the British Government. Philadelphia Spirit of the Times. A JYational Bank. How any but hack politicians can be satisfied with the course of the Wbig party upon this question, it is difficult to perceive. The SouthA above all lands, is unused to this mode of electioneer ing; principles have ever here been recog nised as the only stepping stone to political preferment, the necessary ordeal to which individual pretensions are to be submitted. And yet in this hasty and abrupt desertion of their leading and distinguishing measures, .these Whigs have declared to the world, as plainly as acts can do, the little esteem in which they hold their principles, compared with the success of their party and the ad vancement of their favorites. What instance of man worship more glaring and disreputable than this? Alabama Republican. Democr&cy.- Democracy i3 the child of light; and adopts every enfranchising truth that time and genius and the public mind can deyelope. The masses of wealth, we admit, are against it. Can the same be 3aid of intelligence? . Have the gifted minds of our nation been the adversaries of Demo cracy? Salem Jldvertizer. The Interest of the Country.- The New x ork correspondent of the National Intelli gencer says the "interest of New York is the interest of the country. . Those who have been in the habit of readings his letters, must have perceived that he considers the interest of the Wall street stock-jobbers, money chan gers and "provision dealers," the interest of New York; and according to the present ex pression, that their interest is the interest of the country. -There are other3 who enter- lain a ainerem opinion, ana we coniess our selves to be of the number. Baltimore Re publican, wtfr. Webster and Foreign Heathen, The Rev. Missions to the The Edinburg Review says: "Without being blind admirers either of the French or of the American Institutions, we think it clear that the persons and property of citizens are better protected -in France and in New En gland, than in almost any sociefy that now exists, or that ever has existed." Devastating Progress of the Modern Jlt tma.Morus MuUicaulis, it is said, has fal len half a cent on the hundred, all, as the wise Whigs of WalL street believe, in consequence of the President's using, at Castle Garden, the strange, unconstitutional language "my Democratic feUow-citizens."--Globe. What will be the next devastation by this l i i.:iu u.hlrk the Whie press will I "UMJVd HI"'" TTM- W I announce? . " - "Thomas II. Benton is open, and undis guised, and bold in the conspiracy, and avows that the Sub-Treasury is contingent on ano ther suspension of the banks." .Veto York Star. The New York Star is open, undisguised, and bold in asserting what is not true, as all his readers probably discovered by the para graph following the above. What do editors mean by this shameless assertion of falsehood? Baltimore Post. JYeut Terms. The Opposition now flour ish under ouite a new distinction, that of "Whigs proper" and -"Whigs improper." This is certainly a distinction without a dif ference, for under the latter definition may, with o-reat nroDrietv. be classed the whole of O T the race. Baltimore Post. A Whig Editor, speaking from melancho ly experience, has come to the conclusion that "an habitual and wilful liar voluntarily places himself in a very unfortunate and em barrassing position." Boston Post. Rule of three. The Buffalo Republican saysi "If $62,000 and a WaU street agency in London, be sufficient to buy off one Presi dential candidate, how much will it take to buy off the whole Whig tickeU" Promise them a National Bank, with plenty of Whig shin-plasters, and they will bite at it like a hungry trout at a naked book. - Delaicarf Gazette. The Cloven Fool jflgotn. The N. York Star says: We must have a National Bank. Stifle the matter as we will-indulge our par ty notions as We will, to this course we, must come." - Baron Stow, a clersrvman r this city, (says the Boston Morning Post,) in a recent speech before the Baptist Foreign Missionary Society, named it as a most ex traordinary fact, that the sum subscribed for Mr. Webster by his party, to enable him to make a display in Europe, was larger than had been contributed the past year for foreign mission? throughout the United States! The following is too good to be lost. It is from the Coos county, (N. H.) Democrat: 'The Whig papers in Vermont are circu lating a call for a "Democratic Whig" - Con vention, signed by six Hartford Convention Federalists. The next thing win be a call for a temperance meeting by six common drunkards a 'moral reform' convention by six Yicksburg blacklegs or a 'seamen's friend association by six condemned pi rates." Very Appropriate. -The "figure head" of the New York Whig is a bust of the immortal Washington, with his eyes closed. Whether it was so designed by the engravers, we know not, but we think the device a good one the manoeuvring of some modern whigs being quite sufficient to shut the eyes of all good men. Greneda Bulletin. Ww The Nashville Union The publisher of the Union acknowledges one hundred and forty-seven subscribers in the month of May. We are gratified to learn that the labors of tho present talented editor are duly appreciated. He wields a powerful pen, and has industry, which, together, makes his paper acceptable to the Democracy of the State. We wish the publisher continued success. Tennessee Democrat. We are highly gratified to perceive the suc cess our friend Harris has met with at Nash ville. We felt confident that his hieh minded and generous feelings his talents his hon estyhis zeal, and his enthusiastic devotion to the unadulterated principles of Jefferson ian Democracy, would at once secure to him the confidence and affection of the liberal and patriotic Tennesseeians. In New England, his character as a man and a politician was unimpeachable, and we are certain that his good qualities have not been weakened by exchanging the enervating atmosphere of Hartford Conventionism for the pure and free air of Democratic Tennessee. Boat. Post. Brotherly Advice. The following brother ly advice is from a Whig organ in New York to its co-laborers: -Globe "Take Care If the Whigs join issue tvitn Van Buren on the Sub-Treasury scheme, they will be defeated. Never did the banks act more rascally than they do now. Do the Whigs want to identify their cause with that of the banks? Fools! fods! fools When will the Whiffs learn sense? when will their editors be wise?" THE COTTON QUESTION. The reader will see by the following arti cle from the New York Evenincr Post, that there are two sides to this question. Globe. From the JYeto York Evening Post. As the commercial relations between this country and Great Britain, have occasioned considerable excitement for a few days past, we make room for the following article from an English journal. It presents with some distinctness and force, the view of the subject which is taken on the other side of the At- lanuc. a ne wrner traces most oi tne ex isting embarrassments to the "injudicious cou?e that was last year pursued by certain of our speculating banks and their agents. Extravagant advances offered upon cotton, for the purpose of withholding that staple from the markets, until prices should be un naturally enhanced, created distrust among the spinners, and deranged the regular course of trade. We commend a portion of these remarks' to the gentlemen who have is3ued the circu lar, published in the prints of this morning, addressed to the Cotton Planters, Merchants, Factors, and Presidents and Directors of the several Banks in the Southern States, and recommend a plan, by which, at the com mencemement of each new crop advances shall be made upon cotton with the capital and credit of the banks. They will throw some light upon what must be the enevitable operation of this plan. One would think that some men would be warned against , these nefarious attempts of banking institutions to interfere with trade, by the sad lessons of the past. But one crime leads to another, and an interposition which was at first cau tiously put forth lest it might shock the good sense of the community, is now boldy urged as a necessary measure of protection for the commerce, finances and exchanges of the whole country. Can it be possible that a scheme so monstrous will find favor with that portion of the commercial world, who desire to see a sound condition1 of trade, which they know can only be maintained by confining banking institutions to their, legiti- . mate functions. Individuals, we are told, are no -longer adequate to conduct or control the operations of commerce, and they are to be supplanted in their agency by huge com panies and associated wealth. The produc tion of cotton, for instance, has become so immense that it cannot be sent forward and disposed of at fair prices through the ordinary medium of mercantile establishments in this country or Europe, without the direct co-operation of banks. We are at a loss to divine to what height- of effrontery the ' friends of trading corporations will next carry their elaims. .! . -. - - -,1 Mr tar IK
