The Canada times has the following remarks
on the subject of the death of the late President
of the United States:
The unexpected demise of General Harrison
has drawn from all parties and from all classes in
the United States, ervent tributes of respect 10 his
memory. All the American Journals, Of whntev-
err shade OF party politics. admit the honor, the
devoted patriotism, and the sterling integrity
which marked his character.
That much of public virtue has departed with
General HARRISON, cannot be denied That much
is left behind, for the honor and the safety of the
American Union, we firmly believe.
The political combat which resulted in the cleo
ton of Gen. Harrison, was as strenuousy fought
as was the memorable conflict between the elder
Adams and Jefferson. Three millions of men re-
corded their suffrages-yet there was neither rio,
nor sacrifice of human life and when the result
was male known, the unsuccessful purity in the
contest party hardly less numerous and pow
erfi tan their anragonists--feII back tranquil,
upon ihoir various avocations in life and returned
penceal'ly to the performance of their duties. as
citizens and as subjects. That a struggle OF thi,
description should he so conducted, and so term
mated, is alike honorable to American character
and American institutions. 1t augurs favoraby
for the permanence of their present form of Gov

We have again and ugDin looked with mingled
feelings of amazement and contempt upon the
cringing servhy of great majority of republic
can editors to the Washington Globe neither
daring to think or speak single opinion, unless
it was first sanctioned by that journals still less to
presume to question its infalbiy upon any oc-
casion. We do not belong to the spaniel school
of politicians; we go for right, truth and justice,
come what may, or oppose who will. Not SO with
majority of those connected with the press
they, unfortunately, go for "heparty" let mePdr-
| " go right or wrong.
| In the article to which we have reference, the
Globe charges upon the Inaugural, the sin of be-
ing Webserian throughout, and then breaches
doctrines which out. Webster the great Daniel
himself The Globe sets up the astounding prop
osition that THE PRESIDENT is the truest and best
Representative of the People. What? The Pres
ideni truer and more faithful guardian Of the
peoples best rights and interests than the imme-
dintc Representatives Of the people, chosen di-
tectly from among the people, and as directly re-
spOnsbe to them for their stewardship? Can it
he possible that such doctrines can he supported
by men protesting To I've republicans?
Look ut it the President elevated above the
people, beyond the reach OF instruction, involved
in no responsibility, anenutle to no tribunal, save
that of public opinion, Impeachment being per
feet moonshinel il il uiDazIngbey0nd tie power OF
words TO express, that he sh0ukl he pat forward
as the truest friend the people ilave ever had =
tr,ier and ,noIc faithful than their own individual
Representatives.
We know,not what others may think or say
but we consider that the sentiments put forth by
the Globe, are dangerous and alarming to the last
degree. Let Them be generally embraced, and
the people will only have to take single step to
have President or King, elected MS their .ruest
and most faithful friend, during life.
The article bears evidence Of having been writ
ten by one who pens Editorials for the Globe Oh
" occasionally "military Chieitain )" it ac-
cords with many Of his ideas respecting IA SPLEEN
did scheme of fortifications strong Government,
and standing army. 1t is stronger Federalism
than any ever advocated by Daniel Webster yet
because it appeared in the Globe. it is swallowed,
as the purest Democracy.
