had proved, as ,cdS expected inlarlous to The Biz.
We shall content ourselves, for the present,
with simple declaration, that such Is not the
case.
We make the following extract from late
number of the Cincinnati Gazette, with view
of opening the eyes of the public 70 the "6ar-
gain, intrigue, management and corruption" car
ried on by the Calhoun Faction.
"Gen. Duff Greene, Of the State OF Missouri,
has been engaged to edit the United States Tel
egraph. The General is an admirer and fol-
lower of the Vice President, and taken for all
in all, his present vocation and association are
rather singular circumstances.
In February, 1928, President Monroe nomi-
mated Gen. Greene 10 land office in Missouri
His nomination, through the influence Of Sena-
tors Barton and Benton, was rejected. AT the
earnest suggestion Of MIR. Scott, Representa-
tive from Missouri, the President repeated the
nomination; but without effect. And now Gen.
Greene is associated with Mr. Benton TO oppose
the administrations land Mr.. Scott, too, we sup
pose!'
The Editor of the Gazette has displayed
some sagaci,y in his supposition. that Mr..
Scott would be opposed by this scribbling par
asite. We scarcely ever read a more unmanly
OF dirty paragraph, than one which appeared a.
bout ten days since in the Telegraph, charging MIR
Scott with conduct unoecoming faithful repre-
sentative, and inconsistent with the character OF
gentleman The time is rapidly approaching,
if, indeed, it has not already arrived, when the
SANDERS Of daft Green will be regarded as tesli-
monials Of the recti,ude and patriotism OF those
whom his wickeduess would sacrifice on the al
tar Of his masters ambition.
The New Brunswick FREEDMAN of Wednes-
day last says:
awe are glad 10 learn from an explanatory
note published by Mr.. Dicke,soa, OF New
Jersey, i'm relation TO the statement that the
Vice President had prohibited Mr.. D from
speaking, when he allowed Mr.. Randolph that
privilege, that he disavows all connexion with
the Vice. Presiden, as the head Of a party op-
posed to the administration. This is well-tor
if he had permitted the affair in question to
pass unnouced, his silence would have been
interpreted into feeling OF interest and pur-
pose with the Vice President which forbids es-
arrangement upon minor points Mr.. d. how
ever attributes no incivility or improperly to
Mr.. Calhoun in calling him to order for at
tempting TO speak 10 point which, by the
rules Of the Senate, was not dsbateable-but he
by no means exonerates him from blame in not
arresting Mr.. Randolph in his out-of-order
course. This is the marrow Of the accusation"
Col. Humphreys, Agent Of the Seminole In
dians, with seven Indian Chiefs Of that Nation,
arrived at Judd's Hotel, last evening, on their
way TO Washington City. Philad .4dc Dfay 8.
