Mr. Kendall, in his retirement from Office has
been assAilcd by the Wing press with the most
corous abuse. It is remarkable, however, that his
enemies bring against him specific charges. The
spite awakened by his acknowledged eminent
talents appears to have been aggravated by the state
of prosperity in which he has maintained the Post
Office DepartmcntlW
This is wholesale peiversion of facts, worthy OF

Such horrd stuff cannot therefore, be too cautiously

and contempt of all honest men to low cunning and
consummate hypocrisy.

AMOS KENDALL.


" Send light among The people and the Republic is
safe"
A perusal of " Mr. Kcndalls address TO THE pEo-
PIE OF THE UNITED STATES is calculated to impress
the mind, vivid idea Of the patriotism and moral
and political integrity Of the writer. The features Of
the stand forth, in bold relief and cannot fail
to incite at least spirit of inquiry in those most
Indifferent to the political changes of the times Its
object appears to be to point out the danger of the
country from the success Of the opposition party and
whilst the charges it makes against General Harrison
and his supporters and the conclusions thence drawn
of their principles, aims and power, would naturally
excite feelings of disgust and alarm, the character
it portrays Of the present administration would
mand our admiration It's virtue and sympathy for
the weakness Of its position. Assuming that the de-
struction of institutionsthc subversion of our
liberties coincidcn with the election Of General
Harrison-that the contrary, their preserv alton
depends entirely the continuance of the present ad
ministration, the address winds up with the an
nouncement that AMOS KENDALL has at last stepped
forth, to the support Of Mr. Van Buren, to save him
and the country from ruin and so forth. This Mr..
Kendall proposes TO effect by means of doctrines
which, one would consider, from the manner in which
they enumerated to be rather new at least to the
people, who to be embued Herewith through the
columns of the ertra Globe. His Political Code may
be described, in its essence the application of
rigid morality TO the management of private and pub
lie afairs-and opposition to the election of Harrison
by all honorable means-by the incubation Of which,
the country Is TO be saved and all the ends of perfect
Government attained, viz: individual and national
happiness and prosperity.
With the mass Of the nation (to whom, by the way,
Amos Kendall is really pirate individual I'M
known) the plausbllity of the address may be tho
cause of its doing much good or much HARM accord
ing as II may excite suspicion of its honesty or obtain
unqualified credencc. To rejecting minds, however,
(and all minds should reflect in such crisis when SO
much depends on decision,) the following queries
and reflections may occur Who is this Amos Kendall.

In 1888, WmrE's majority in this district was
919. His majority nov is more than double that
amount.-The first district has covered herself
with glory. 80,
In the second district, shade oil doubt stlii
hangs over the election of DAWSON. II IS re-
ported that a wbig precinct in the parish OF
Washington has not been heard from. we nave
not been able to ascertain the correctness OF this
rumor It seems probable, however, that DAw-
SON has beaten MORGAN by a very small MAORI
ty-not over thirteen votes. This district gave
Van Buren, $50 majority in 1886; and IN 1854,
when Gen. Dawson was candidate Tor Govef-
nor, he received majority of 800 votes. The
gain since then has been immense. In 1888,
Chinn (whig) was elected to congress iro:1 the
ID district by $50 maiority.-This was attribute
bic to his great personal popularity, and the
weakness Of his opponent. The I'd district has
heretofore been the stronghold OF loceiocolsm'
Had Judge Morgan been brought out carrier, we
believe he would have been elected. But Daw-
son had been some time in tho field, and had re-
ceived many pledges of support from the wings,
prior to Morgan's nomination. Viewed In the
worst aspect of the case, the I'd district IS good
for Is majority for Van Buren, in November,
while the LIST will give Harrison over taoo thou

eight locos to the legislature.
