The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1842-10-26

The policy of The wing leaders-from Governor
down to their very editors, is dsapproved by the
large masses OF their own supporters. They will
not vote for the democrats, but they will stay at
home, and allow the latter, who always succeed to
excite their troops, to attain easy victory AT tins
stage of the contest, we do not see any possible
mode by which the wings can bring out all their
troops Can VIM. II Seward see any Can Thur
low Weed? Can Charles King 7 Can James w.
Webb? Can any of them see any mode ?
AMUSING DISCLOSURES. - INrRIGuEs oF PENNY
OFFICE BEGGAEs.-A very amusing disclosure has
been made by the Express and "Aurora" in
which person by the name of Paul b. George figures
at full length, also Redwood Fisher, NJ M. Noah,
and several Others who occupy some very ludicrous
attitudes. There is also doctor in the case.
1t seems that some time last Spring, small clique,
of which the persons we have named were the
leaders, was formed for the purpose of establishing
Tyler party starting the ''Union" paper-and mo-
nopoislng all the patronage of government in
'hese diggins." A general commute was accord
ingly formed-M M. Noah made chairman-Red-
wood Fisher the private or corresponding secretary,
Paul b. George the agent. One of the letters of
Fisher, addressed to the Postmaster-General, has
been published, and the way in which the whole
scheme is put forth to catch the spos under the pre-
tence of creating a new party, would beat any
passage in Rabeais, equal chapter in Don
Quixotte.
1t seems that the situations in all the public offices
Including the blanks, paper and twine-were all to
be disposed of by this amusing set of fellows, and
all who interfered with them were be denounced
and put down. From these singular exposures-in-
GLIDING the droll letter of Redwood Fisher we now
have the origin of the savage attacks made the
President, in the late Evening Star" many of
them written by Noah hmself-and others in other
papers, in which John Tyler was most bitterly de-
nounced, because it suspected that the printing
patronage OF the government in New York was to
be given to the Herald, "owned by band of for
eigners.'
A word on this point. From the first mament that
John Tyler became the President, we gave him a
manly and firm support, without ever asking or ex-
pecting any patronage. We believed him to be an
honsst chief magistrate-and he has turned out to
be So Every article in the Herald describing his
position and his principles before and after the ex-
ira session, originated with us-and although we
sent our correspondent to Washington, we gave him
his directions and suggestions, and when he failed
capitalize represent himself what he was MOTTO
neglect our business, for which he was paid in adj
vance $500, we dismissed him from our employ
ment. No man knows better than the President
how little we sought or cared for patronage of any
kind The public has been so generous in its sup
port of the Herald that not under the necess-
,y of begging patronage from any President any
party.
Nevertheless, Redwood Fisher NJ M. Noah, Paul
George, and their clique Judging of our our mercenary
motives as they knew their to be, supposed that
we were striving, seeking, begging for patronage
and hence the violent attacks on the President last
spring, published in various papers, and which we
have no doubt were got up by these very PERSONS
We know that many of these attacks on John Tyler
were written and published by Noah in the even
ing STAR" before ii died.
But the truth is now out-and the whole plot to
deceive the President stands revealed 1t is one of
the small intrigues of office beggars-and full his
tory of these amusing things, with Fishers letter to
the Postmaster General will be given in few days,
including other facts and circumstances of most
laughabe character.
