MIR. ARCHER.

nsi peascs. The coniuc, ofhIr Archer will placc
him IN the eyes ofcvcry impartial observer as dsap
pointed oce-hunier. He was devoted to the Admin
is,raton--o bscquious in his attentions to the Prcs
dent-importrnately pressed upon him for Office

soiienng tue errors of the Proclamation itsclf-say
ing that they were exaggerated by the slang Yhang-
crs-but when Inc found himself cut of i'm his as
pirations, throwing himself into the arms of the On
posiiion-afiiatcd heart and hand with NIcssrs.
Calhoun, Mangum & Co.--and going all lengths
with men, whom he had us violently opposed he
fore his ambitious hopes were nipped in the bud. by
AN unkindly frost. These facts which the
WING, with all lis audacly, may attempt in vain to
deny or 10 cxtenuate.
The Wing aliirms, that Mr.. Archer abandoned
MIR. Van Buren, before Mr. Stevcnson's appoint
mcnt was known. What wrctchcd stuff What
miserable dcIusion! MIR. A. abandoned Mr. " b.
as soon as v. H. refused to lend himself to tue pur
poses of this filming patriot The Wing knows
that Mr.. a. well knew, long before Mr. Livngston's
letter ranspired, hc himself not to receive the
n'isson--and the moment that fact was ascertancd
he fell out with the Administrations us no had prc-
yously done with Mr. Van Buren,.
Tho Globe places some of these matters in the
ciearest point of view. We recommend the able
and eloquent article, which we this day rc-pubsh
to those Who would understand the truth. If Mr.
a. has nisled the WING, he ought to blush for his
own Measurements If he has not well mny he
blush Tor the audacious misrepresentation of his
new advocate.-The Globe hns put MIR. A. into N
narrow place ndeed-nnd we commserac him for
the attitude in which he now stands. He may de-
pend upon ii, that the Developments of his conduct
are not yet all unroed.--We have now before us n
letter from Nashville written n few DAVIS since
which shows how general is the sense Of his miscon-
duct. "hlr. Archers opportunities for the Embas-
say-his abandonment ofthe Administration, when
his hopes were quenched-his vote against Ste
vcnsen on the vote OF thanks, have all black ap-
pearancc. Details may be expected.n
The Wing may gable as long MS it plcases, about

feat has nouination?-The Wing may reconcile il to
its principles do it. We for one plead against lis
jurisdiction in such matters.
Mr.. AS hgh-mnded, patriotic conduct, may then
be sketched with few strokes of the pencil His
friends sought an office for him, with his knowledge
and conscnt-and although almost every body knew
that the President was thus mportuned for il, vet
MIR. a. has now the modesty declare that nobody

preends To shy Inc could not support because Of its

In referring 10 the meeting a, which this Yen,l.m,n
presided, in Amelia, and which nominated Mr. I.gh ~

proceedings oil 18th OF July celebration al which votc
was taken and passed in favor of Mr. Leigh for the P,e
6eney Besides nominating Mr.. Leigh, Mr. Archer wa,
oaseu and the Proclamation and Force BtI denounced
we had no hes 10 which we could recur, when writing
our article TO which the Wing replies and depending nm
OH recollection, we imputed The sentiments expressed
against the Force Bill one OF the Leigh
meetings IN Amelia, TO another.
IL turns out, however, that although made mistake
as TO the import OF the resolutions which MIR Archer al
hat NIL
man. we gave our recoections of the senimcnts ex-
pressed at the Amelia meeting 10 prove that MIR Archer
on returning honc had avowed himself araDs e Force

letter, which was written by Mr. Archer not for mems,
paper explanation, but for private circulation in which
ne expressly states his opposition the and
