Has not this methodist his party attempt to
pervert and alsfy the history Of his country in re-
gard to General Harrison! Has he not witnessed
the base attempts, made by servile presses, to
awaken the viIest passions Of the human bosom,
against the purest men, merely for party purposesl
How could he read without shock to his morality
the second propagation of that vile SANDER against
ono of the speakers ut Rocheport, when he knew it
had been uiumphantly refuted and its inventor
held up to the and dersion of all the good of
every party! Let this Van Buren, man ponder
these inquiries WELL and thousand others tina. could
be proposed, before he undertakes again to msrep-

brother in pretended methodisiic garb. Lot him
remember there are others beside Me,hodists or
Baptists, who despise the low cunning, survilily
and chicanery Of Reynolds and who are forced to

| The SPY, who writes for the New York Courier
and Equrer, is generally very the mark in the
political information he communicates. We cut
the following from one of his late letters.
AMOS KENDALL.
The person whose name is placed at the head of
this letter, is well known to the country. No man
ever filled public office in the United States who
| has been more successful in accommodating fortune.
He has tact for money making, and the faculty of
saving it when once made. Qualities rarely COM

parsonage Mr.. Kendnll's fortune is varously es-

and the medium may be considered correct. By
some he is said to be worth TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS;

of the 'dear people" and to prevent "the rich from
becoming richer, and the poor poorer"
Supposng Mr.. Kendalls editorial labors to be
put against Blair and Rives's paper and print, then
each extra Globe would be worth FIFTY cents to
Mr.. Kendall. Apparently, this is paltry consid-

hundred thousand copies circulated This
number the friends of Mr.. Kendall estimate they
can and will circulate. You pause. You are as

subject, was lost in amazement at its magnitude.
