We believe that the E'Globe'' newspaper
is esteemed to be the official organ of the
Administration and the leading print of the
Sub-Treasury party. The following article
is from one of the very first administration
papers in the South, the New Orleans Ma
tive American, and is written by DR.. M'Far-
lane, its senior editor, who is also we'll known
to be one of the foremost and ablest Jack
son, Van Buren,, and Sub-Treasury men in
Louisiana. Ii must be good authority then
for all that school of politicians, and it gives
the Moral and Political Character of the
Globe inlanguage easily understood, and in
colours which stand in bold relief. We
commend it to the especial reading of all
good Van Buren, men, and any others who
feel curiosity in it.
THE IRISH IN New ORLEANs.-B
Peyton, very active genious among the
Wings, is busy at New Orleans in exciting
hostility to the Irish, by way of recommend
ing Federalism to the French natives of
Louisiana. The prejudice to which ne APP
peals is one that had its origin in the en-
crossing disposition ofNorthern Federalists,
who, when emigrating to Louisiana, from
the North, seek to monopolize all the poll
teal influence of the state. This feeling.
provoked by Federal arrogance, Bale Pew
ton would turn toits advantage, by persecu-
ting and traducing Democratic Irishmen,
who have, from the days of the alien and Sc
dtion laws, been marked by the Federal
leaders as the most determined opponents
of their principles. To give new effect to
their exertions, Mr.. Peyton and his Wing
brethren have organized "A Native Ameri-
can Association" Washington Globe,
When we undertook the Editorial de-
partment Of this paper, il was our solemn
determination never to suffer ourselves to be
irritated by any thing which might be said
against us our cause, but when we read such
low, grovelling, insdious and venomous
falsehoods as the above, we are almost in
cined 10 fear that we have niscalculated
our philosophy. We would make poor au-
xiliaries to our righteous and patriotic cause
If we expected that in advocating q doc

I" Democratic'' discussion over the sus.
pension.

II is exceedingly amusing to read over the
proceedings of the Legislature of Tennessee
Ie'Democratic to the core'') upon the subiec
of the late suspension. The democrats have
each a peculiar notion of his own as to what
is democratic doctrine'' upon the subjects
of banking and currency. Such hatroe-
genious mass of discordant "opinions and
sentiments" we have never seen as these
'pure democrats" exhibit, while contending
amongst themselves as to what is best to be
done. The wings seem to stand aloof. But
the fact is, the democrats of the Tennessee
Legislature are about as well prepared to>ac
upon the subject as any other set of demo-
Gratis that can be found. They can all talk
very well, but we think that the world is
likely soon to be informed that theory and
practice are two different things.
The following, which we find in the Re-
publican Banner of Nov. last, are two of
their democratic views.' We wish we
had room to copy dozen or two of the reso-
utions they have offered upon the subject.
RESOLVED further, That the debtors to the
Union, Planters and Tennessee Banks and
their branches, be and they are hereby abb
solved from every legal or moral obligation
to pay the several amounts of their indebt-
edness to said banks until such time as the

payments for their notes, by the provisions
of the foregoing resolution. Resolved, that
we are aware of the provisions in the Con-
stitution which provides that we shall make |
no law to impair the obligation of contracts;
yet in consideration of the interest of the |
stockholders, and the safety of those who |
have borrowed large amounts from the !
Bank Of Tennessee, we are induced to lega- |
lie the suspension Of the Banks, and by |
these resolutions show to the world that we |

tors of the Bank of Tennessee be directed to

To the Public,

The rights Of editors and publishers of papers
have been too long neglected. Justice will never
be done unless themselves assert their rights
and enforce the most rigid rules, which IN the
end will be found alike sautary to the public anc
beneficial to those engaged in the press. Pub
fishers of papers have been so long imposed upon
by the community at large, that they are conSld-
cred to some extent a degraded class of beings
when in fact there is vocation in life so honor
able, deserving of so high consideration, produc-
tive of so much good, a class that exerts so power
full an influence. 1t is known to be proverbial for
the debtors to newspaper publishers to consider
their demands as the last to be pad--debts to
which there is attached no moral obligation, and
which they can refuse to pay with justice and
honor: hence, it is incumbent upon the conduc-
tors of the press to assert their own rights, and
resolve, severaly and jointly, to bring all patrons
Of newspapers under the same obligations that at
zach to other contracts, or always remain in pow
erty and want, with thousands due them from the
most solvent men in the country.
We call upon all editors and publishers of pa
pers who approve of the following rules, to endorse
them by their signatures place them at the head
Of their papers, and strictly adhere to them
Ist. No subscription received without payment
in adrGace
I'd. No subscription received for less than six
months.
3D. Advance payment will be required from

EXECUTIVE RESPONSIVENESS

EXECUTIVE RESPONSIBILITY
We are frequently told by the administration
press, that the question before the country is not
who caused the present distress; who deranged
the monetary system of the country; but who
supports the banks in the abuses of their privi-
leges. This is an abandonment of the argument
so tar as concerns the acts of the executive in
producing the evils Of the times, with an accusa-
ton against the wings as false as it is grievous-
It is virtual admission that the prostration OF
business and the disorders of the currency are
traceable to the rash experiments OF the govern
ment, with an attempt to shift the responsibility
Of the presidents misdeeds upon other shoulders
Fhe pth of the controversy,'' says the locofocos,
lis not to wies4a the ordinate extension OF bank
ing capital is to be ascrbed.n Let us examine
this proposition.
Responsibility is the essence of free govern
ment.-1o imagine a republican constitution,
without the direct accountability its function-
aries to the people, would be ridiculous Il IS
through this responsibility that the people have
ratio as the constituency abandon This principle
in practice does the government assume despo-
tic character It's the distinguishing feature OF
elective constitutions; and the president becomes
amonarch to the extent to which be can evade
its force upon any conyuisIon in the affairs Of
state, upon any reverse in the prosperity Of the
nation, upon the happening Of any public calaml-
ty or general distress, the first enquiry should be,
who produced it? The primary duty ct republic
cans should be to trace the evil to its anthors-to
ascertain upon whom the responsibility Of haV-
ing interfered with theiE happiness, rests. Nor
has the patriot discharged but halt his duty when
he discovers the culpriL he has then to enforce
III law Of responsibility upon him. TO exercise
lis constitutional prorogative Of furnishing HIM
