from me ~. T. Com. ddrerfscr.
The Sub-Treasury project a real touchsone of
political virtue; and honor, say, to the who
stood the test and that the sacrifice of much and
the hazard Of that very dear him. Political
associations, friendships and prospects be de-
stroyed by the accession of administration partzan
from this darling scheme of those power-the malig-
nant and INSCRIPTIONS enmy Of the administration
gans was 10 be encountered-bnt Mr. Tallmadge saw
these tcrrors the side and the welfare of his
try the other, and hesitated not moment how to
choose. He cast aside all personal considerations and
gave himself to the service Of his country he threw
himself into the breach and proved his devotion and his
ability by never ceasing aud most powerful resistance
that fatal measure.
On the floor of the Senate, Mr. Wright was regarded
as the leading member Of the administration and had
shown himself decidedly their abcs, No collision
having arisen between them, their comparative strength
had not been tested. But when high sense of duty
compelled MIR Tallmadge to take the floor in earnest
against his colleague, Mr.. Wrght's supremacy vanish
ed. He quaed before his antagonist, and was driven
from the conflict with splintcred lance.
And shall we now deny our friend and advocate op-
portunity for dong still good in the same great
cause Would such conduct be Just either to ourselves
or him Would it not be both foolish and ungraeful
Another consideration Mr. Tallmadre is the lead
ing representative Of the Conservatives, to whose pow
erlu aid in the late contest are so much indebted
They have claim upon the Wings, and they present il
in the nomination Of their leader We are bound in
gratitude and honor to recognize their claim and fulfil
their wish
