THE GLOBE-BENTON-C CLAY.

That this unholy coalition does positively ex-
ist we have sufficient evidence in an article in
Saturday Globe, copied froman exchange paper
The article oppose, removals in toto ! Thus
the Democratic party will at once perceive thai
the Globe is in favor of retaining Mr. Clay's
active partisans in office, and would doubtless
be opposed to the RESTORATION Of the old Dem
ocratic incumbents to the places whence they
have been elected. Every day exposes more and
more of the fendish game in which the politi-
clans are engaged But why are they opposed
to such removals? Simply because they know
it would be followed by an outburst of popular
applause. They would rather Satan himself
should reign, than to see John Tyler reap the
plaudits of the People.

We believe ours is the only paper that ever
gored Mr.. Benton to the quick. If we thought,
in doing it, we had not done the country ser
vice, we would repent. But the ACT of which
he was guilty was inexcusabe. 1t was subver-

RELEASE OF PRISONERS.

We understand that authentic information
has reached this city that Mr.. Kendall, OF New
Orleans, and six others of the citizens of the
United States, who accompanied the late Texan
expedition to Santa Fe, were released from con
finement in Mexico soon after the arrival OF
General Thompson, our new Minister to that
country, and that it was expected those still de-
tanned there as prisoners of war would soon be
liberated.

If John Tyler and those who belong to his party,
stick to what is right in defiance OF all the caumny
and abuse of those TO whom he hath refused to listen,
he will in despite of every thing some day or other
receive the applause of his fellow men. Honesty is
always the best of policy, and he who not only pro,
fesses, but governed by the rule must in the end
succeed.-Buuer Pa) Democratic Herald.

We have seen, in several Of the abolition pa
pers, letter purporting to be written by three
runaway slaves, Samuel Jackson, George John
son, and Bartlett Holmes, formerly of Richmond,
Virginia, now of Canada, making most indie
cent and false attacks upon the private charac-
tiers of Mr. Bolts and Mr.. Wise, of the House
of Representatives.
Whether these are real or fictitious names we
know not, and it Is unnecessary TO inquire. The
letter is said to be extracted from the Toronto
Herald, and was doubtless written by any other
pen than one held by an absconding slave. The
publication of such scurrility is proof only of a
fact well known, that papers pretending to be
peaceful, and even religious, in their tone, are
often more vituperative, obscene, and reckless
in their attacks upon private character, than
are the most heated political newspapers. In
this instance, the impulaton upon Mr.. Wise is,
that, "aohen a member Of the Legislature Of
Tirginia," they knew him to be guilty of lewd-
ness and dissipation. And they charge Mr..
Bolts with bad morals in his domestic relations,
and continuation of vicious habits g Till the
gear 1882, when," they say, they ''lefr' the
the city of Richmond.
The community may well Judge of this fab
ricatitn of SANDER, when they are informed that
Mr.. Wise neper 1pds q member Of The pirgi-
MIA Legislature and that he was meper IN the
city of Richmond before the gear Of 1888,
after these slaues are said to hare left that
city. Mr.. Bolts innocence may easily be in
ferred from the falsehood against Mr.. Wise

the particulars charged, where they are known

WHO WILL BE THE OPPONENTS OF
THE ADMINISTRATION.

Mr. Clay can boast his worshippers, who can
by no argument be detached from subservience
to their idol; United States Bank can equally
boast friends too interested in the resuscltatlon
of the monster to abandon their old affections
but reiterated proofs have been given that the
knowing and the deceived abetters OF the man
and of the monopoly, when united, do not consti-
tute majority Of the People of this county,
The friends of Mr.. Clay will no doubt be untir-
ing as they are rancorous in their opposition to
the Administration. They have already re-
ceiyed their orders from the dictators, the
friends of a Bank will be in the opposition, be-
cause they cannot expect the establishment OF
their favorite remedy for the financial evils OF
the country while the present Administration
remains in power. From determined Clay men
and ultra Bank men, it cannot expect support
From all those ranking under these denomina-
tons, no matter what other ultra principles they
profess, it can expect no favor.
But by the moderate men of the nation,
by the men who have not been phrensied
through the simulant of partisan passion, by
those who regard the good of the whole coun-
try, by the consistent disciples of the old Jefier-
sonian school Of Republicanism, on what ground
will the measures and acts of the Administra-
ton be opposed, while it adheres, as it has hith-
erto done, to the faith it processes? When ii
abandons that faith it will not dare to look for
support from those on whose favor it now de-
pends While it strives honestly and faithfully
to bring to an amicabe and honorable adjust
menl our difficulties with foreign powers-above
all, if its efforts prove successtul while 1t adj
heres TO the sound doctrines of discriminating
in favor of our domestic products, though it re-
sists the imposition Of duties beyond the requi-
sinons Of an economical revenue, while 1t OPP
poses distribution as long as the wants OF the
Treasury require the proceeds from the public
lands, while it is industrious in keeping up or
restoring our means of defence, and anxously
fosters the growth and increase OF the Navy
while it upholds these measures, and others, IN
consonance with The true principles OF Republl-
canism, a large majority of the People must ap-
prove and support it.
