These various expeditions in the Globe of
the character Of Mr.. Calhoun at length ex-
cited his ire against his present ally and nor
shipper, and he denounced Il as "THE
MENDACIOUS AND FILTHY SHEET"
The Globe on the 22d February 1886, refer
ring to Mr.. Culhoun's assault, said;
"Hr iOOk upon he Nulii6ers pe diretasa mere in

We call upon the American people now, to
look and behold the erecrator and the erecrat-
ed acting together in carrying on "a mar on
The currency"
Again; as TO Mr.. Calhoun's consistency
The Globe Of the 2sth February, 1886, said;
" We hnom hat there is hardly question
| ofpoliey throughout tie ~hole orient qf public
afars, in Which Mr.. Calhoun, the great patron
and pattern Of this school, (passing the bounds
Of credibility,) has not gone from one ertreme 10
HE other, and at The same time maintained that
he was aluays right"
In respect to Mr.. Calhoun's disappointed
ambition, the Globe Of the 4th March, 1886,
said; /" Mr.. Calhoun, as nee hare sh0un Jy the
journals IF Congress and his printed speeches,
pas the ADVOCATE Of protective tariff from
1916 until 1928" This scheme failed Mr..
Calhoun and he then came out openly and in
person, a Nnliifer, and got 10 aoork in earnest
10 DISMEMBER THE UNION, as
means Of reaching the supreme po~er as the
head q a southern confedracy. He carried his
conspiracy so fur, that he got has head into a
halter, and, rather than run the risk Of Us faH-
ing in the grasp Of public officer, in The GRIND
struggle mhich he proposed, he put it in the
hand Of Mr.. Clay, that he might lead him out
IF The difficulty upon any conditions he might
choose 10 impose"
In respect to the sanity Of Mr.. Calhoun, the
Globe of the 18th May, 1886, stated, . But
such is The unhappy state fthis mans feelings,
that unmeasurtd denunciation has become his
daily business HIS political disappointment
corrodes his heart, whiie ertraoagant ambition
sill iafames has mind, ami these feelings seem
10 haze made him MAD. The only eaeuse ,ohich
can BE- offered, for his daily rep tition ofhe
same ing-song in The Senate, IS that upon all
topics touching The President or Presidency The
man is CRAZED."
Respecting the State Bank deposite sys-
tenn, it is well known, that from the moment
of its adoption in 1888, Mr.. Calhoun display
ed the most bitter and determined hostility to
il and exered himscfto the utmost to break it
down. Hence probably arises mainly his OPP
position TO the plan proposed by Mr.. Rives.
In relation to his opposition to that system, the
Globe Of the 10th June 1896, said:
"Nercr dill hound fotio,o hare mih greaier eager-
ness ltan has Mr.. Calhoun his scheme Of gripping by
legislation The hanks containing the public dcposiics.
Mr.. Calhoun was one Of the principal authors
Of the act Of 1896 which, by inherent defects
and the manner of its execution, not only GRIP
pied, but brought catastrophe on all the
banks of the country, deposto us well as
others.
On the I'd of July s36, in an article head
ed Mr.. "Calhoun's Retrcnchment," the Globe
significantly inquired "HOW WILL THE
SOUTH ENDURE MR.. CALHOUNS
NEW SALE OF ITS INTERESTS FOR
HIS SELFISH ENDSw
We now make the same inquiry, how the
South will like the attempted new sale" Of
its interests for the "selfish ends" of Mr..
Calhoun and the Globe party? Will the
South unite with them in the war on the cur
rencyl We apprehend their own great nte-
rests at stake are too great for them to do so.
In the Globe of the 18th October 1886, we
find the following
"1he name Of Piaeknsy may resume us ancient
honors and it rM near Them an future times, rhen
that Of Calhoun ,oW be mentioned only 10 be exc
GRATED"
We conclude for the present, our extracts
from the Globe, dencating its late opinions
of Mr.. Calhoun, with the following, from that
paper Of the 3lst August 1896. declaring Mr..
