HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY"

The Globe of Thursday night contained
an article with the above caption, which we
copy entire. as follows
"The honesty and fairness which characterize the
Republican party contrast mos, advantageously with
the opposite qualities for which the Federasts are
notorious. II is some consolation TO reflect, that
whatever may be the temporary gain to the Oppo-
stion, by the tricks and frauds which are now its
main reliance, the loss of character, and conse-
quenty of public respect, will sooner or later re-
act against it with irresistible power Nothing can
be more short sighted than the policy which de-
pendSupon cunning and disingenuous arifces and
this proposition is equally true when applied both
to public and private affairs. There is nothing
which can indemnify any man or party for the sa-
| crifce of reputation which such means involve,
and which must sooner or later bring disgrace and
defeat upon those who employ them. Whatever
may be the b5astings, however proud the air OF til
| umph, which mark the public demonstrations of the
Federal party, we may rest assured that among its
members there are many who feel Inundated by
the dsgraceful expediens to which desperation has
driven II, and whose apparent concurrence is Sc
cured at the expense of much secret upbra idng.-
Such state of feeling must sooner or later destroy
all cordial sympathy and support. No party can sus
tain itself long which is thus rotten at the core"
The honesty and fairness which characte-
rze the Republican party" does indeed,
" contrast most advantageously with the OPP
posite qualities for which the Federalists are
notorious" The course pursued by those
real Republicans who opposed the Sub-Trea-
sury and those professed Republicans who
supported it illustrates most fully the contrast.
The example of Rives, Tallmadge, Ruggles,
Legare, Garland, Mason, Hopkins, Clark,
Stuart and a number of others who acted with
them, on the one SIDE, all undertaking Repub-
licans from their childhood and of Buchanan,
Wall, Hubbard, Williams, Prcntiss, Vail,
kembe, and others like them, who were old
Federalists, and were arranged in the ranks
of those who were the bitter reviers and OPP
ponents of Jefferson and Madison on the other
But it is these first, whom the Globe would
now characterize as " Federalists," and the
last, that i, claims as Republicans
The Globe and its partizans and employers
will find, if the truth has not before this been
manifested in the result of the New York
elections, which have already reached here,
that, NoTHING CAN DE MORE sHoRT-sIGHT-
ED THAN THE POLICY WHICH DEPENDS
UPON CUNNING AND DIsINGENUoUs ARTI-
FIcEs." When was there ever a system,
affecting the whole nation like that Of the Sub
treasury, recommended, sustained and at
tempted to be palmcd on the nation, under
equal " cunning and dsingenuous articles Z"
Are the proofs demanded They are to be

FRANKLIN INSTITUTE ExHBIrIoN.--We were highly
graifed with visit, we had an opportunity of
making, TO this interesting exhibition which opened
at Philadelphia on Tuesday No true American
can contemplate these substantial evidences of the
rising energies of our country, and ofthe advancing
mechanical skill of our countrymen without stirring
emotions of pride and patriotism. The collection
Q! articles, although not so extensive as we have
seen at the exhibitions in New York, is nevertheless
various elaborate, and meritorious, mingling the
useful and the ornamental. There are paintings,
statuary and marble fire engines kitchen ranges,
cooking stoves, parlor stoves, mantes, CRATES &c,
iron and steel manufactures, machinery, carriages,
sleighs agricultural implements, musical instru-
ments, glass ware britannia do; hats and caps spe-
cimcnS of book binding, account books surgical in
sruments saddlery various manufactures of leather,
wooden cloths, silks, calicoes, Biddle's plate"
lamps, soaps, medicinal and chemical preparations
and instruments, embroidery, scales, beautiful ba
lances Of exquisite delicacy for the U. s. Mint, &c,
The exhibition attracts crowds of visilers, and is
alike honorable othe praiseworthy institution which
annually calls il forth, and the mechanical skill: in
dustry and genius OF our country.

JUDGE SMITH AND Mr.. CALHOUN.

JoDGE SMITH AND MN. CALHOUN
We copy to-day, from Southern paper OF
recent date, letter written by Judge Smith
in 1888, for the purpose Of laying before our
readers the political character Of Mr.. Calhoun,
as drawn by Judge Smith, who knows him
we'll
Many Of the opinions expressed in the
letter, we think are quite as applicable to the
present times and circumstances, as they were
to those existing at the time il was written
What, but PRESIDENT HUNTING" has
thrown the country into the "fearful conyul-
sions" that now EXIST We believe it to be
the case now in a more eminent degree than
at any former period in the history of the
country, that I" the root of the evil is in Con-
gress.' Who that Witnessed the proceedings
during the last two sessions, will not acknow-
ledge that there it is that bargains are made"
and "there it is that men sacrifice the vital
interests of their constituents and of their
country, to secure popularity for future usel"
With as much, if not greater reason, might
Judge Smith now say, this parliamentary
traffic, this political barter and exchange must
be checked, or the Union will be broken up"

VIRGINIA.

What will old Republican Virginia do
Will she not profit by the result in New York,
and abandon altogether Sub-Treasuryism and
loco-focoisml We confidently predict she
win. We do not doubt that. Virginia at the
next election, will return to Congress-, great
majority Of members of the old .Madisonian
Republican stamp; such as will go with Mr..
Rives, and sustain the Conservative mea-
sure he brought forward and advocated, in
opposition to the Sub Treasury Of the Exc
cutive. ~.

found in the Messages OF the President; the
annual and special Reports Of the Secretary
OF the Treasury in the Speeches delivered
IN both Houses of Congress, in favor Of the
scheme and circulated in hundreds Of thou
sands to the remotest corners Of the Republic;
and, in the Report Of the Finance Committee
of the Senate and in document called "the
Address Of the Republican Committee"
Tha, is not all. Through "cunning and
disingenuous artiices," there were brought
together to support this scheme Of Executive
origin and recommendation, and to carry on
a war Of destruction against all the best in
terests Of the country, the Calhoun Multi
fiers the universal bank enemies; the advo-
Gates for the augmentation Of Executive
power and patronage, Of the old Federal
school; the northern " floating scum, The rab-
Die folioesrs Of The camp" the disciples of
Fanny Wright, and other preachers and pro-
fessors Of agrarianism and part OF the
abolitionists OF such heterogeneous mate
rails is the party composed, who have been
the advocates and supporters Of the abomina-
bic Sub-treasury scheme.
However much this party and those who
lead il may have fattered themselves with
triumph, we are confident "that among its
numbers there are many who feel Inundated
by tho disgracelll expedients to which despe-
ration has driven it," We allude to many
for whom we have ever entertained the high
est respect; men whose goodness Of heart,
and mildness Of character led them to fear the
rigor of the party discipline they saw enforced,
and to dread the exercise of an independent
opinion opposed to il.
How can it be possible that party thus
constituted can possess any cordial symPa-
thyl" 1t is impossible. With the Globe, we
agree, that, ".No party can sustain itself long
which is thus rotten at the core"
We fear that Mr.. Van Buren,, in the result
Of the elections Of his own State will expe-
ricnce "that remorse which comes too late"
and those who have resorted to " cunning and
disingenuous articles" for the purpose of
carrying "disgraceful expedents," will dis
cover that " HONESTY Is THE BEST POLICY"
