The reader will, at a glance, perceive that
act one word is here seen about the Treaty.
Is the Globe tired of that subject, or did it sup
pose its argument might be weakened by tn,
introduction of that subject? Is it not fair, il
this great work, negotiated by the Secretary OF
State, under the direction Of the President, is
TO be attacked, that Mr.. Webster should occupy
position to defend it against the ruthless war
Of its enemies? We are happy to perceive
that the opposition Of the Globe TO this Repub-
ican Administration is narrowed down, by its
,lcn admissions, TO the Exchequer Ii SAYS,
We deny that we assaed the Executive
while he was drdenfiy and acknowledged,
carrying ont Democratic doctrines in his Id
minisfrafion' The Globe, so far from doing
this, simply opposed itself TO the preparation
made by the Administration to introduce its En-
chequer system as one Of its Democratic mea
sures and in uniting with the Democratic par
ty, to make it responsible for that measure."-
Thus it appears, by its oion admissions, that
the Globe simply opposes the Administration
on one ground-the Exchequer. The Globe
need not give itself uneasiness about the Exche-
quer We have no doubt that the People will
assume the responsibility" This is precisely
what the Democratic people are in the habit OF
doing.
The missouri Reporter, and the Evening
Post.p two of the ablest and staunchest Demo
cratic journals in the country, have just come to
hand, and the Globe has nothing to hope, ii
seems, from these quarters.
One word in conclusion. We do not attack
the Globe. Ii assaed US under the most ag-
gravating circumstances and it continues, daily, |
