THE GAZETTE:
APRIL 1881.

The New Yerk ''Courier and Enquirer"
follows up its attacks upon the two Senators
from the State Of Virginia. We are anx-
ious TO know how the Old Lady, of the
Richmond Enquirer, will relish the admin
Sstration Of such dsses as the following TO
her favorlte sons:
"In the whole Of this Turkish affair, enc
of the most suspicious points Is the fact, that
Mr.. Tazewell never opened his mouth on the
7 ilIegality Of the commission, while the treaty
was under consideration in the Senate; but
no sooner had Duff Green been elected prin-
ter, than we find both he and Mr. Tyler ia
king open ground against the administration.
Was this silence assumed merely to deceive
the friends Of Andrew Jackson. and cheat
them into the reelection Of Duff GreenP II
at be so, it is a specimen Of shallow cunning,
utterly at variance with the high character
to which Mr.. Tazewell sets sp studied pre-
tentions."
A Sign.-Nve copy the following from the
North Carolina Observer, heretofore deci-
ded Jackson paper:
sMr CALHOUN-Many Of the North
ern papers speak Of it as matter reduced
almost to certainty, that this gentleman will
be brought forward by his friends as a can
didate fer the next Presidency. a'e those
who have long read this paper, we need
hardly say, with how much real pleasure we
should lend our feeble aid to the support OF a
man of his brilliant talents, great experience
and unbemished private character, for this
Office. Recent circumstances have allayed
the regret we should once have had on see
ing Mr. Calhoun and General jackson placed
in opposition to each other. We shall pre- /.
badly return to the subject at a more con-
yenient season."
