Soon or npupr.--There il at least the
merit Of originality in the idea of the
Journal, that the opposition to the pre-
sent administration, arises from the dis
appointed ambition Of a /" few prominent
aspirants, who must be promoted soon or
nprpr." "A few" we think would be
unable to produce such a powerful SEN
sation against any honest men, as now
exists in every section Of the country,
and the thin veil Of g aspirants" seeking
their own promotion, would not hide
their deformity from the people. The
veil would be suddenly rent and the
:" lew' exposed long ere this. The peo-
pie are seldom long in error They
will much sooner correct themselves
than small body of men or even an in
vidual will do, and to imagine that, for
three years they had no other reason for
opposing this administration than, to
crafty "a few aspirants," is to suppose
them ignorant and stupid in the extreme.
This opposition displays any thing but
ignorance. 1t is not founded in personal
dislike, but is founded in prlnciple-a
natural adherence that republicans in
all ages have entertained. so long as
they remained virtuous, to the corrup
tions of men in power. tits because this
administration were not only "promi
ncnt aspirants" but successful aspiaants"
that they are opposed, because they ar
rived at office contrary to the will Of the
people, and by unfair means.
There is something specious however
in this manRuver--lt is ilne gloss-a
pretty polish, sort of cant OF the head
at the charges proved, in common slang
IAN easy come off" But as the editor
progresses he seems TO become facetious
, and says, in speaking of the charges OF
corruption that many well meaning men
have "never seen the powerful proofs
; of their falsity." This is true enough
No man has yet seen these "proois" and
we believe no one, whether he be well
meaning or i'll meaning, ever expects te
see them. They have been too long de-
ferred ever to be brought to light now
The charges have been nailed to the wall
with too many "powerful proofs" o
. their truth, ever to be disbeleyed at tbi
