The studied and deliberate attacks up.
on the purity aud independence Of the

and eloquen:ly expressed by work,
called the National Magazine and Re-

now conducted under the Editorial SUI
pervlsion OF Richard S. Coke, Philip r
fendal', David a. Hall, William w.

neDdiug this publication to all true

the political institutions OF the country
from the assaults of the Democratic Re-

the political work above mentioned.
The prominent facts advetied to in the

list. The assumption BY the late Presi,
dent Jackson Of "a right to execute The
laws as he understood them" Which it
will be remembered was announced BY
that potrntate in the way Of caution to

and its open congratulations of the public
on the late renovation of that Court by
the appointment of majority of demo.
Gratis TO the Supreme Court beuch. It's
Palpable from this work, that there is q
rancorous hostility in the party leaders
against the Judicial authority, and a
hope TO destroy its sslutary influence by
packing it with what were believed Nv
them to be majority of political tools
The shameless appeal of this journal to
the political prejudices Of this majority,
is OF piece with the other frame work
OF this dark and detestable cons piracy.
IL is no small compliment to the wisdom
of those who framed the constitution.
that even these tools have been converted

Perhaps stronger evidence Of the
dePlorable state Of things, in regard TO
pecuniary matters, of some of the States
South and West of us, could not be pre-
scented, than one that passed before US
the other day. A gang of some sixty
or seventy negroes. passed through this
place few days ago. from Mississippi,
seeking, as we understood, a market.
Such Is the pecuniary embarrassments
OF that State. as well as others, that in
order to lessen the sacrifice on the sales
OF negroes, which sales have to be made,
they are brought back to the old aud
