THE CONSPIRACY

The lnlelligencer denies that il knew any
thing about Bolts's resolution TO deDose the Pre-
sident by impeachment.
Does the Intelligencer know that, four nights
since. Bots offered his resolutions in caucus Tor
tue impeachment TO be tried, and that he was
laughed al by his own party and got but seven
teen votes for his plan2
Does the Intelligencer know that, four days
ago, every book that speaks al all upon impeach-
ment had been taken from the Library OF Con
gress
Does the Inteligencer know that Mr. bot's
wished Mr. Mangum TO resign and Mr.. King 10
be elected, for the purpose of showing mat ne

THE CAPITOL GROUNDS.

We do not often stir from the seclusion of our
sanctum. We find however that the proopgation OF
our retirement enhances our enjoyment of the few
beauties of nature which the contraction of city lin
its suffers US enjoy. Perhaps we are rendered too
sensitive 10y the inlrequency OF our fruilion OF the
sweets of the green swad and flowers, but really we
are such strenuous advocates Of regularity Of arrange
ment that we do not like the path made through the
grass the Capitol grounds by the privileged classes
The flag walk u.s. we should think, wide enough and
we agree with the public gardener, whom we
accidentally met in our FORMULATION, that our pub
lie character as well good taste, requires that men,
bers of Congress should give the good example of not
treading down the veIduie-an example which the
uNpRlvIIEGED will insnctively follow.

MOST EXCELLENT.

1t is with great pleasure we copy the follow
ing paragraph from The New York Express
No man will dare dispute the assertion of the
Express 1t is journal of the highest stand
ing, and its statements will be deservedly relied
on in every quarter
The Wing General Committee of this city publish
certain general resolutions, which they deprecate
the attacks upon Congress in newspapers heretofore
considered Wing, but now under the patronage of the
Federal Government and the Committee tender their
warmest hanks to Congress for what they have done
and the way it has been DONE 1t is worthy of remark
here, however, that The severes attacks which have
any where been made upon Congress for dilaory and
often disordery action, hare been in the Courier and
American.

The Western Wing members OF Congress
have, we understand obtained the consent oil
their Northern brethren on the floor of the House
10 vote for the Tariff bill now before that body,
with section 10 il repeating that clause In the
Distribution act which prevents division
among the States of the public land money
when The taxes 60 above 20per centum.
The ground upon which this consent has
been procured, is, we are well informed, pro-
mise, on the part of the Western Wings, To
unite with their Eastern allies in voting tor a Ia
rIti bill by itself in the event OF another Veto.
IL has come TO our knowledge, that The promise
will not be kept by the Western Wings. They
intend to break it,, and TO unite with the anti
present tariff of all parties in adjourning the
session.
II is notorious fact, that Western man can
give full-tlooded Yankee all the odds he may
ask, in political or any other game, and yet beat
his opponent. If the Eastern and other Tariff
Wings, will suffer themselves TO be deceived by
the Western members, on this subject OF Land
!. Distribution, and will vote for uniting the re-
peal Of the 20 per cent clause in the Distribu-
tion law, with the Tariff, in the face of the late
Veto, then the time will have come when the
Northern Wings may, without being misrepre-
sented, take the significant title of g Yankee
Dough Faces" to be moulded into shape at the
will of such unskiltul potters as Representatives
Underwood, Joe White, and all that tribe.
We call especa attention to the designs OF
these Western Revenue and Distribution men,
bers, for we believe that their schemes will be
executed to the letter. and the poor deluded vic
TINS of their political prey left to chew the cud
of disappointment, and listen to their condem-
nation by the intelligent constituents, whose
rights and interests they will have betrayed

TO THE EDITORS OF THE NATIONAL IN
TEI,LIGENCER

A word of inquiry to these honest publishers
of Congressional debates. Why have you IN
your account of the proceedings of the House
on Friday last, in which you pretend to give an
account of what Mr. Mathot said, omitted Mr..
Snyder's interrogaions addressed to that man,
and the solemn affirmation afterwards used by
Mr.. Snyder upon the occasion We charge
these editors with wiliul and deliberate sup
preston of the truth, and we are at loss to as
sign any reason for the omission but design
to injure the President by the circulation of a
charge which was no sooner uttered than it was
met and put down There is no excuse for it..
The whole affair passed in the hearing of the
House, and every word was heard by the Re
porters of the Intelligencer. We refer to the
Madisonian of Monday for a true account Of
what did pass. Why has the Inlelligencer sup
pressed an essential feature of the transaction ?
Answer, we impartial and dgnifed editors

THE VETO.

War has been declared, not only against spe-
cial exercises Off the Veto power in certain cases,
but against the power itself. The battle has
been covert, as well as open. Mr.. Clay and the
Intelligencer, Ell i'd genus omne, have been untir-
ing in the open battle-while masked battery
has been armed in the House. Bills are so de-
vised as to render a Veto inevitable
are inserted which il is known the President
can not and will not approve, with the hope that
the Veto power will be made unpopular by the
frequency of ita exercise. Such is the scheme.
Federalism and dictatorship are powerless while
the integrity of the Constitution remains. They
cannot flourish under the Republican Govern
n,ent framed by our forelathers-t must al
Ter it in an essential point-they must have a
ew form of Government.

J.. Nj. COFFEE-HOUSE Bolts.

When does this most learned constituencies
make his report on the case of Chas. J. Cailett2
He has had months TO preface it, and doubtless
the country anticipates most learned and pro-
found argument, connected with horrible expo
sures of Executive corruption. Perhaps it is
designed to be made one of the grounds of his
proposed Impeachment. For months past we
have heard nothing of this matter. although this
distinguished civilian at an early day had
committee raised to inquire into it, and we
have more than once heard that he was to make
terrible and prodigious stir about it. We hope
that without further delay, this conspicuous
leader of Wing caucuses and concoctor Of
Bank compromises, will give us the benefit of
his learned views upon the subject of Executive
power.

Below is an extract from a letter written by
A. L. the correspondent of the New York Cou-
rier and Enquirer of the 9TH instant-"Like
master like man." We give it only to call pub
lie attention to this mendacious correspondent,
who has been attempting 10 deceive the public
for many months past. The residue of his let
ter is made up of similar man lactures. What
premium does Col. Webb pay for such false
hoods:
III learn from a source worthy of the most implicit
credit, that the President has now with him person
Of consider able skill and natural acuteness, (not a
member of the Cabnet,) who is engaged in prepar-
ing Veto Message to meet any Tariff bill that shall
embrace any degree of protection to manufactures,
even it it should not contain clause repeating the
20 per cent. section of the Land Distribution Law
In taking this course he is guided in all robabli-
" by the desire throw himself the most ultra
measures so as TO embarrass much possible the
policy of the Wings whom he knows that he has Of
Tended to degree that will not admit of reconcia-
ton

INSUL TING THE PRESIDENT.

When a man applies epithets to another "be-
hind his back" he is liable to incur the charge
of cowardice. But when person (syling
himself gentleman makes brutal attack on
the character Of an individual whose hands are
tied behind him, and who has no possible
means of inhicting the chastisement merited-
IN what estimation does such an assaant de-
serve to be held
But when personal attack is made on the
head Of the Government-the President of the
United Slates-by member of Congress, who
knoDs perfectly well before hand thai the Pre-
sident can not disgrace himself and degrade the
Government by condescending to inhict the
punishment with his own hand which may be
deserved-we contend that the member so as
sailing is bound in honor to consider the one
who steps forward to repel the attack, as the
representative of the President. When Mr.
Stanly applied his various insulting epithets to
the President, on Friday last, Mr.. w eller rose
in his place and nobly threw back the charges.
He said that,
"Mr. Tyler of as much truth, honor
and integrity, any one of those who have been
and still in the habit of reviling and raducnp
him."
Now Mr.. Stanly was present, and confronted
by his accuser. The charges brought by Mr.
Stanly against Mr. Tyler, were hurled back in
his teeth by Mr.. Weller, where they must re-
main until they are wiped out by some effec-
tual means. Such is our construction of Mr.
w eller's remarks, and every one we have con-
versed with entertains the same opinion.

CONGRESS-.

In the House, on Tuesday, after brief por-
ton of time devoted to preliminary business
Mr.. ADAMS offered the following resolution
the former part of which was adopted, and the
latter objected to, and of course laid over.
Resolred, That the President of the United States
be requested to cause to be communicated to this
House, so far as may be compatible with the public
interests copies of all the correspondence between
the Government of the United States and OF Mexico
since the appointment of the present Envoy Extraor-
binary and Minister Plenipoentiary OF the United
States to Mexico, of the instructions given to that
Minister at and since his departure upon his mission
and of his dispatches to this Government, and part
cularly of any complaint Of the Government OF Mex-
CO. alleging the federation by the Government OF the
United States of hostile interference by their citizens
in the war between Mexico and Texas, and OF any
answer on the part of this Government to such COM
plant. =,
Also, copies of all correspondence between the
Governments of the United States and of Texas, and
the last communication of the President to Congress
relating to that Republic; and Of any proclamation
of the President thereof declaring his determination
ID invade the Mexican Republic and inviting the CO.
operation Of the citizens of the United States in such
intended nvasion-and the President is requested to
inform this House, whether any, and II any, what
notice has been taken by the Executive OF the United
States of the said proclamation of the President Of
Texas.
Mr.. FILLMORE then moved a suspension OF
the rules to enable him to offer a resolution for
postponiny the consideration of Territorial busl-
ness until next week. The motion o suspend
prevailed by vote of 1913 10 %.
Mr.. FILLMORE also offered resolution-under
instruction from the Committee OF Ways and
Means-extending till II O'Clock, Friday, the
privilege of making explanations relating to the
items in the revenue bill.
The House then went into Committee of the
Whole to resume the consideration of the re-
venue bill.
Mr. THOMPSON, of Mississippi, argued against
the bill reported as bill of protection in
stead of revenue. The minmums, especi-
ally, he contended to be oppressive TO
the poor man. The distribution clause he
emphatically condemned. A determination to
q head him or die" had become co nmon col
looual expression on all occasons-he knew
there was nerve enough in the person at the
other end Of the Avenue to veto bill so ini-
autous as the present one, If II were sent to him
for his approval.
Mr.. CARY, of Virginia spoke until IL o'clock,
when, by the rule already adopted, all debate on
the general question must cease.
Mr. FILLMORE moved TO strike from the en-
ocung clause the words Both of July" and

A serious attempt to carry out the design charged
upon the Wings by the Madsonan, and which has

template the consequence of such movement with
out shuddering No reputable man in the nation

the benefits it had conferred upon the country but
certainly never had would have, any idea o.;
revving it. What said was, that would moi agree
to the repeal as it now stands. In other words j
