burg Convention, he had scarcely one spark
ofpoliiical vitality remaining--in that state of
torpor he was taken to the bosom and conf
dence of the Wing family, and warmed again
into life. BY their votes he reached the Sc
cond Office in the Government, and by the in
scrutable act of a wise Providence was, in one
short month, translated to the first. Can man,
in the widest dreams of his imagination, pic
ture forth stronger case of services rendered,
and gratitude justly due, than is here present.

ting than we had before seen, his new organ

Over this piece of information too, the Editor
evidently chuckles with great glee. He, too,
singing SO lately jeremiads over the dismissal
of those who had been for years plundering
the public. Prescription was then the most
damniDg sin of which the President could be
| capable; now, however, when according to
his own statement, more than one half of the
nation are prescribed at one fell swoop, it is
all right and proper. Oh! consistency thou
art jewel of rare value, and art entitled to a
casket ofequal rarity, and we would commend
thee to inhabit the body of our brother of the
Enquirer
In sober sadness and in all truth, we pity
the condition to which the President has re-
duced himself. How much more to be envi-
cd would his condition have been, in every
respect, ifhe had pursued the straightforward
path of honesty and plain dealing, and have
disregarded the charms Of the serpents arount
him, 0charmed they never so wisely.o

AMI RICAN LOANS.

Applications hsve been made to the London
capitalists, on the part of some firms in tho u. S.
to take part Of the loan recently authorized by an
act OF Congress, and of which, as yet, hut small
portion, has been taken by the capitalists of A.
merica. The London houses are, however, de-
termined, as far as we understand, not to comply,
as long as such doctrines as those uttered by
Gov. M'Nut, of Mississippi, allowed to be
uttered unreproved, and the Mississippi bond
holders are deprived of their dividends. Had the
non-paymeni of those dividends arisen from the
poverty of that State, much as it might have been
deplored, the credit of the federal Government
would have remained uninjured. But here doc
trines are deliberately spread which deny State
responsibility on account of legal subtlety, with
which the innocent bond-holder has no concern
Hence, while these doctrines are diffused with
out any demonstration on the part Of the Ameri-
can people to show that they completely repudi-
ate them, the capitalists are of opinion that the
credit of the United States is entirely gone and
that they would not be justified in advancing
their money either to one individual State or to
the federal government. Such demonstration,
they say, is the only way of bringing the United
States within the pale OF trustworthy nations

DEATH OF MR.. FORSYTH.

In another column our readers will perc Give,
many of them with deep regret, none of them
with Indifference, the annunciation of the death
of the Hon. JOHN FoRsYTn, of Georgia, late Sec
rotary of State. He died at his residence i'm this
city on Thursday evening, of congesive fever,
after an illness of three or four weeks. To pro-
nounce the eulogy due to the pubic character of
this distinguished gentleman is a duty that does
not devolve on us but it is not fitting that we,
who knew the deceased so long as public man.
should withhold from his memory the justice of
saying that he possessed qualities which placed
him much above the level of the mass of mankind
The high Offices which, during so great portion
of his life, he successfully filed, both in his own
particular State and in the National Government
attest at once the superiority of his abilities and
the public estimation of them. To the HIGH adj
vantage of superior talents he added, also, that of
an elegance and dignity of manners which shed a
grace on the exalted stations which he filled -
His death, sundering many ties of devoted affec-
ton, has plunged in the deepest distress large
and most interesting domestic circle.-Nat. mi.

mr. Ep'ng's peracily Lnpugned.-We have
been called upon to record declaration made by
the Hon. Francis Mallory, in an address deliver

citizens there assembled, on Monday last, that
President Tyler had authorised him to pronounce
the statement of Mr.. Ewing Prospecting the con-
cocton of the second Fiscal Bill) to be "false in
every essential particular. DIR. NJ. further re-
marked, tina, full contradiction of that statement
would appear at the proper time. When asked at
what time it would appear, he replied that he did
nothImselfknow but that it would appear
These facts have been deemed important to be
made public i'll order that Mr.. Ewing and his col
leagues, Messrs. Bell and Badger, (who have cor
roboTated his statemen) may have an opportuni-
ty OF taking such measures as they may Deem ne
cessary III view of so grave a charge against
them. For ourselves, however, we do not see
how the promulgation of such charge can affect
the public judgment to the veracity of these
gentlemen, until some specifications are given to
which they can plead. The charge itself, howev-
er, having been thus promulgated, renders it ne
cessary, as an act of justice to the individuals
whose veracity has thereby been arragned at the
bar OF the public, that the specifications should be
produced and the issue joined without delay.
