opinions from the public, for fear of dis
pleasing Nor,hern Wings, or AboIi,ionists.
Ever since he has occupied his present
elevated station, he has spoken man(ulIy,
on all subjects, when ih,errogaed. He
has manifested that perfect independence of
party, which well BELTS President of,he
United States. In times gone by, he was
called non. .committal; but who can say,
that he is mol now deeply committed on
all the agi'a'iug questions of the day!

either disdains 10 reply 10 friends or foes.

to '.makc no further declaration of his
