AS we expected, the Baltimore Wing has

appointment of President by Congress: 1t IS
an Usurpation" His lamentations for the
breach of the Constitution, by this proceeding.
can deceive but few. IF any Candidate had
been proposed to the people, agreeable to the
Wings views, we should not have heard a
whisper of disapprobation. 1t is because he
MORALLY hates Mr.. Madison, that s~e witness
all this weeping and wailing and crashing f
teeth. The following paragraph will shew
the little ceremony with which the President
and Congress are treated by their friends.
IF Congressman (says the Whig) under
take to infringe the prohibitory clause OF the
constitution in order to appoint Mr.. Madison
to the presidency for four years more it can
not be said that the executive has not receiv-
ed tie for all his ea,traUagant limitations of
A ROYAL COURT, LEvEEs, &c. sc. at
which so MANY congressional attendants
bo7v and cringe, and bangle and play the
PARASITE.-Th fatal effect of such inhu-
ence is to defeat the intention of the constitu-
ton, which meant to keep the Legislative free
from the Entertainments of the executive. A.
nv man can perceive the inevitable result of
MUTUAL BARTER and reciprocal in
trigue."
We are pleased with the unreserved man
ner in which these sentiments are expressed
Mr.. Madison, we presume, will scarcely al
low that they are the sentiments of majority
of the American people and hence he will
be disposed to admit that the clamors Of the
same paper for War are not participated in by
the great body of the nation, bat are confined
to few noisy factious individuals. Let him
conduct himself accordingly, by firm and
honorable determination to preserve the peace
and promote the prosperity of his country, and
he has nothing to fear from the denunciations
Of two or three democratic writer's: Their
rawlings will sink, unheeded or despised.-
MIR. Madison will also be convinced, we trust,
that any future attempts of his to conclliate
them, would be labor lost; and that efen 1t
he could succeed, they are not to be depend
ed on they would again desert him on amy
emergency: Confidence in an unfaithfuI
man, in time Of trouble, is like broken tooth,
and a foot out Of joint y
