WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENTS.


prlety of our course. lie believes the President to
be pure and honest patriot, but apt be mslcd by
some treachcrous frends-but he states his PROPOSE
tons in such form, and with such circumstances,
are unfit TO be laid before the public eye. We
have much respect for the motives and the mind of
our correspondent-but is he not deceived by
others? Are strangers Washington able to sft all
the statements of men, who, II they have )tves
TO deceive them, have at least their preudces
TO discolour their views? 1t was but on Saturday,
for instance that we received letter from friend
mt Washington, clearing up most outrageous false
hood, in relation to the President and this paper; and
yet this had been boldly circulated for time i'm
several of the opposition prints. The same letter
cautions against all lies of this sort" The truth
is, there not wanting politicians at Washington
and their undcrstrappers who circulate all OF
misrepresentation against patriotic President
They write letters and publish them at a distance
They make trade of this thing Ambitious disap-
pointed politicians resort to these poisoned weapons

the cabinet rs Secretary of State. What friend of
the President can swallow such an invention p

three hours Such lengthy speeches answer no good

the on dts are, that Mangum and Holmes TYLER and
Gru9dy with Poindexter and Miller follow-and
probably the whole TO be brought up by the great
champions, Webster and Calhoun; the last are uncer-

Calhoun prccedes aud the latter n all probability will
reserve himself Tor the great struggle his resolutions
which involve the whole ground.

anticipate the Calhoun on the PRINCIPLES of omr
government, has not cqual and he has made this CON
test so much his study for the years that have Just past

It is now calculated, that This bill will pass both Houses
OF Congress. If so, | dread the consequences The
whole South may be raised in arms, and take common
cause with South Carolina. TO the President then ~
