POLITICAL CONSISTENCY.

Among those who have taken most active
part in behalf of the present administration, and
have been most Jealous in denouncing those OPP
posed to MIR. Van Buren,, as well as in voting for
the Globe $50, 900 per annum, was Mr.. Black of
Georgia. That the people elsewhere may judge
of what Mr.. Black was, and how lar his pres
ent declarations in behalf of Mr. Van Buren, are
! worthy Of credit, and that they may know how
far his denunciations of Gen. Harrison are to be
relied on, we quote the following extract from
his pen, written Just before the late Presidential
election:
Here are Dir. Blacks opinions of Mr. Van Blu
rem and Richard M. Johnson, at the last Presi-
Dental election, three years and half ago
Comment would bnt weaken the power and effect
of Mr. Blacks exceedingly graphic sketch Here
it is:
ssYou will readily recognize the foregoing as
an honest rehearsal of the doctrines of the Union
leaders Now, sir, suppose, what in the present
critical iuncture of our affairs, is quite a sup
possible case that by the aid of the abolitionists
and the votes of the Union electors, Martin an
Buren, and Richard M. Johnson-the one I'LL
innate abolitonistsin principle, and an advocate
of free negro suffrsge-the other a pra ctical
amalgamationist, who has been welded to two
negro women, and is now honsred by half
dozen mulatto children, of his own get, raised
to the Presidency, and places at the head of the
government; suppose that the abolitionists, who
are avowedly the friends and supporters Of Van
Buren, and johnson, 60 increasing as they
have increased, in numbers and influence, and at
length by their zeal and activity return a ma
iority 10 Congress- instructed TO treat all slave
holders as sman-stcalers' and sland pirates,' and
Congress accordingly passes act to abolish
slavery not opl7 IN the District Of Columbia
but in thc Statesi The deed is done-the Rubi-
corn is passed-slavery is abolished! The fair.
and beautiful south, the ehome' of our fathers is
threatened to be delayed with the best blood of
her patriot sons-our children to be offered tp a
sacrifice upon the reelSing affairs Of bloody in
surrection, and our virtuous and helpless women
menaced with the horrors Of ten thousand deaths
in the brutal violation which the half liberated
slave, drunk with the blood OF his master, and
gloating with beastly passisn upon the person of
his mistress, is ready to infict upon them.
ssWhen this whirlwind is about to rush upon
our devoted country, and the black clouds which
already portentuously lower in the distance, shall
have overcast our horizon, and the land is about
to be overwhelmed in darkness and death, to
which OF these two political parties will you adj

pending ruin? To which of these parties will

of Cen Harrison's want of popularity, after his
vote on the Missouri restrictions; but are very
carefal in oEitting the
Unlike his popularity hunting competitor, Gen.
Harrison always adhered to fixed principles, In
his devotion to the constitution and the rights of
the Southern states, he offered himself willing
sacrifice upon the altar OF his country, and yet he
is branded by political demagogues az an aboli-
ZIONIST; whilst Van Buren,, who voted to instruct
Rufus King to oppose the admission of Missouri
into the Union, as a slave state, is called the
''Northern man with Southern principles"
The following extract of an address, published
some time after his defeat in the canvass for
seat in Congress, viii more fully explain his
pri lciples They are of an open, and frank char

in forming her constitution was not conclusive

THE FOURTH OF JULY.-Were it
not for the bright prospect before us, and the
hope OF a change, we would mourn over this day,
sacred to liberty. The chains which bind down
the spirit of the bondsman, are heavier by con-
trasting his thraldom with the time when he was
once free. So when we compare the despotism
which has desolated the land, and converted hope
into despair, we feel that there is no cause for
joy, but in the confidence that our liberties will
be redeemed.
We have the Globe before US, in which the
supporters of despotIsm are invoked to organize
and to aoork, acork in season and out of seaso7t ,
that their power may be perpetual. If the slaves
OF despot can labor for the poor privilege of
serving master, what may we not expect from
the spirit of Liberty that will this day thrill in
every bosom? Let US all invoke the spirit Of our
fathers, and with the same zeal which animated
them to achieve our independence, resolve tkat
we will be freemen. If this feeling peryades the
land, there will be an end Of the despotism that
now Expresses us.

THE PETTTCOAT sLANDER.

II any thing could surprise us which appears
in the Globe, we would be astonished at the ar
ticle which appears in that paper relative to the
charge made by Mr.. Allen, of Ohio, that the la
dies of Chillicothe had, during the last war,
presented petticoat to Gen. Harrison Gen.
Murphy, in no measured terms, it is true, de-
nounced the charge as a SANDER not emily upon
Gen. Harrison, but the ladies of Chillicothe, and
that such thing had ever been done by them
The Globe now comes gravely forth with the
usual high sounding language of Mr.. Kendall,
and endeavors to prove by certificates, that dur
ing the war, there were some persons in Chilli
cothG, who had heard, not that such a thing had
been done, but that it HAD been talked a3ou!!!
Mr.. Kendall l. busy in pouring over old files
to find something that Gem Harrison has said in
disparagement of the militia of Ohio. We beg
to know whether there has been a commanding
general, who discharged his duty to his country,
that did not, at some moment, give offence to the
militia under his command. In the very nature
of things, they become restless and dissatisfied.
They cannot understand the reasons for the de-
lays incident to campaign, especially upon the
frontier, and become inpatient under the ia
tigues, delays, and disappointments to which
they necessarily subjected Was not Gen.
jackson frequently surrounded by mutiny? Was
itnot with great difficulty that he could keep
his troops in the field? And who does not know
that no man was ever more violently assailed
than Gen. jackson for the harshness of some Of
his military measures9 Who has forgotten the
coffin hand bills ana the doleful Jeremiahs over
the six militia men! And MIR. Kendall deserves
the contempt ofthe people for whose understand
ing he pays so little regard to suppose that
they can be diverted from the great questions be-
fore them, by these senseless clamors against
Gen. Harrison's military conduct. Mr.. Kendall
may be excused, however; he is deeply interest
ed in deceving the people. His interest in $40, )
900 per annum is at stake, and he, too, was play
ing the pedagoguey or else was being nursed on
his sick bed by Mrs Clay, while Gen. Harrison
was defending the northern frontier from the
British and their Indian allies.
