Could he have ranked more Giobes-Globes Extra and prospectuses of EStra Globes, than he has done. aver he could not. Tn. ! that his private secretary, occasionally, Col Earl and Andrew Jackson, IT,, his adopted son, all had been en- gagged m addressing these papers under his frank
 The number of these papers thus ranked cannot be certainly ascertaned but the people of Tennessee tel us the wholo State has been deuged with them Mark the time when they made their appearance When the election was before the people, hev exhibit ed their graceful forms from he last of April till ths first of August, when the election took place. Wher the election of Judge White to the United States Sc nate was pending, they to the hands of every e glslator, under the imposing frank of the President
 What were their conentsi Those who have read the Globe and Globe Extra, during the past year, vel know, but will hear Tennessee on the subject She through her public presses tells Us, and we all
 know it 10 be the truth, that their columns teemed with
 the backes vltuporatien of the character of Judge White. Can the President persuade himself that the foul and sanderous easions of the Globe against ihe character of Tennessees most ilustrious son, will be acceptable 10 her for the that she obtains them under the frank of his great name! Does he believe her to possess the humble weakness of the Spa- nle that licks the dust from tue foot tha kicks l Il he does, he wh5ly mistakes their character The evel brave and generous sons of Tennessee whether in Ar. kansas or elsewhere, indeed every lover of free principles, feel well persuaded, will rush to the ballot boxes, and in tones that will make office intrguers stand aGhast wipe away the foul stain attempted to Dc cast on the character of Judge White. Before con cude should perhaps say something in regard to tho two Gwin letters written by Gen. Jackson in answer
 to some editorial articles which appeared in the Nash vile Republican,, in of which the President cha racterises the article .syie calumny utterly desti

 which he is placed by his office, to the level of paper editor, and deal with him in blows of such disre putable recrimination. l can but think that such con duct degradcs the Presidential chair and insults hs dignity of the nation. What was 1t that called for h

 All this reserve allowed Gen. Jackson for the ed itor says, 'if he the President, has any preference we should suppose his predections would all be oI the side of Judge Whiten There IS averinent her
