the Wings of this Country in their contest WI"

more impossible than this. In The hrst place, va"

Tory oracle, was The author of the suppression of

in this State which did not speak Of Mr.. Van Blu

They all, without exception, glorfy his .trmntss
in standing out in support of the Sub-Treasury IN

the policy of reducing Wages and Pr oducts TO the
lowest eudurable prices. Their 'Money articles,

transferred the Locofoco journals and falsely al

could hardly have Administration fashioned
more after its own heart than Mr.. Van Bnren's.
Yet who thinks Of starting story that Van Blu

Friend OF Harrison and Ty Ter. if you happen TO
meet Locofoco retailing the miserable lie that the
Wings are aided by money from Eng land, don't
kick him, for he may be so ignorant and besolted
specimen Of humanity not to know that he is
lying very stupidity and wckediy. In such case,
let him pass in silent contempt. But if he is man
of any sense self respect, just point the finger of
scorn at him and ask him il he is not ashamed of
being caugh, in the act OF retailing such dirty and
men. Ask HIM how much he thinks tho British
paid Tip for his services at Maumee, Fort Meigs
and the Thames. Ask him how much they would
have given rather than have had Martin Fan Blu
rem then appointed General in his stead Ask
him how much they paid Martin Van Buren, for
his Uery efficient and patriotic support of the War
Administration AFTER Mr. Madison had been reelec-
ted, though he had supported De Witt Clinton with
all his might up to that ii me- Ask him if he does
not admire Mr. Van Buren's remarkably patriotic
Instruct ions to Louis McLane about tho Yves, In
dia Trade and how much he thinks the British |
ought to giva to get such Statesman ont of the !
Presidential Chair. Finally, ask him how many
such iasehoods he thinks it will take TO bully the
People out OF their determination 70 have a change
of Rulers, and leave hin, to the shame he cannot
resist and the contempt be richly merits L Cab.

received one of Amos kendas Addresses and
prospectuses for the Extra Globe, enclosed in circu
lar. Mr.. Kinssbury replied to him like an honest
man, who scorns to be an instrument in decevng
the people, and his letter must have frightened A.
