THE cALUMNY OF THE PRESS.

Howsoeyer greatly we may admire the free insti-
utons OF our country and the freedom of speech and
OF e fress we cannot but depore the abuse oil these
nestimabe privileges too often INDUCED in by parti-
san presses Through the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF the Press
its own influence has been destroyed, and what has
hhero been regarded the palladium OF our rights,
the Dulwark OF our Institutions is now looked upon
as the channel Of SANDER and falsehood Instead of
watching with jealous vigilance over our national
character, by sustaining the reputation of our public
servants The ablest statesmen and most distinguished
patriots OF our country illuminated with unmea-
sured severity. The mad ambitious asprant for
power the brawllng demagogue, the self-interested
politician acknowledge rule but their own policy,
and no rights, but such they sanction. Such can
never eel the patriots flame, nor know the patriots
holy love OF country Measuring other men by their
own narrow Standard and Judging Of them by them
selves, they denounce our best and most efficient men,
as corrupt, as traitors, and as unworthy OF pubIc
trusts. We have witnessed with no little pain and
regret the acrimonious assaults made upon JOHN
TYLER, the President of the United States by many
of our leading Wing presses. Their denuncations
Of him discredable to themselves, disgraceiul to
The character of public men, injurious to our own
cause, and unjust and wicked to MIR. Tyler for we
honestly believe however Others may differ with us,
that our country has no one truly patriot, or
warmer iIleud, than John Tyler his public lie
heretofore clearly confirms this opinion. He may
act unwisely, but who shall dare impugn his mo-
tives
IL Is the duty OF every good cluZen 10 yleu cor
dial support to the Government under which he lives,
and obey the laws that protect HIM in his rights and
should the administration of it not exactly accord, in
every particular with his notions he should not,
for that reason raise note of opposition and con-
denim the whole. No administration upon coming
into power should be hastily condemned-o opposition
should not be made merely for the sake of opposition
but its measures sustained where ii is practicable
We are gratifed to see some of our ablest journals
take active part in sustaining the President in his
general course, and do justice to his patriotism.

CONGRESS-.

In the House, on Thursday. Mr.. Stanly, from
the Committee on Expenditures, presented a
report, accompanied by that Of Mr.. Poindexter,
and other documents. He moved the printing
OF an extra number of copies-the proposition
being objected and laid over.
Mr.. Everett moved to take the Apporton-
ment Bill out of Committee on Friday, but at
the suggestion Of Mes 9rs. Gushing and Adams,
substituted Monday for Friday On motion of
Mr.. Mcclellan, Of New Y ork. the amended re-
solution was laid on the table.
Mr.. Gushing proposed that the House should
act at once on the motion to print an extra num-
Der Of copies of the report from the Committee
of Foreign Relations. 1t was pro posed 10 print
10000. amendment proposed 5000, which
wa, lost, and 10000 were ordered.
The House then went into Committee Of the
Whole, after which Mr., Kennedy, of Indiana,
entered into an argument to show that the
amendment of Mr.. Halsted contained an as
sumption of power by Congress not warranted
by the Constitution, and was followed on the
same side by Mr. Paine

Mn EDToR Boston, in business point Of view
exhibits to some extent this spring animated ap-
pearance The completion of the great Western Rail
Road connecting the city with Albany, and thus
forming continuous communication with the great
West has given fresh impetus to business Of almost
every description. The cars come in daily from the

this, we fancy, does not alter the truth. II is
very true, that there are the same men in the
country now who voted for Harrison and Ty-
vote for Mr. Clay himself, nor any political
friend Of Mr.. Clay. And this is the secret OF
defeat. Mr.. Clay has been styled the hero Of
defeat. Now, if he would only defeat himself
occasionally, we could stand il with reasonable
patience; but we do protest against his defeat
ing any body else, much less the good OF the
country, by causing the Wings, or any body
else, TO act iyudiciously.
Mr.. Badger throws North Carolina, or at
tempts TO throw her, forward in the Presiden-
ta struggle for the succession, in the lead OF all
other States. Virginia and South Carolina are

COMPLIMENTARY TO MR. CRIT

The Madisonian commences an article thus
" Henry Clay, peace 10 his ashes, has gone

g Henry Clay, peace 10 his ashes has gone"
What a subject of congratulation They breathe
more tieeiy," undoubtedly at the other end of the
Avenue.
But has Henry Clay gone Has the master spirit
of Congress gone We think not. Henry Clay is
not now in the Senate, but he is abroad; and those
who have sat IN Of his talents, and his unwayer-
ing JUSTICE, crouch at his feh presence and live boast
fully in the consciousness that he marks their action
This rejoicing at his absence like the hubbub of the
schooroom in their teachers absence But the mas
er-sprit is at the door, eyeng the pranks of the dis
organizers and while he dismlsses the lad that has
taken the chair, the gown, and the rod which be-
logged to him. he will put the rest to their studies.

We suppose that Mr.. Crittenden is meant by
the "ad that has taken the chair, the gown, and
the rod, that belonged to him. This is too bad
Of MIR. Chandler. We risk nothing in saying
that Mr.. Crittenden is as good friend Of Mr..
Clay's as he can possibly be, and that TO endea-
vor to throw ridicule upon fellow laborer in
the desperate cause of Mr.. Clay and thus sup
plant him in the great mans esteem and affec-
ton is Liberal and unbecoming.
Fie, fie, Mr. Chandler Was there any thing
in the general orders" which Mr. Clay left
with you, to this effect?
The first part of the above paragraph we do
confess our inability to understand "Sitting in
awe of talents" 'crouching at fell presence"
and living boastfuliy in consciousness Of ac-
tons being marked" all at one and the same
time and place, is beyond US. Mr.. Chandler
can do the two first, and perhaps we may do
the last, but the three are not well compatible.

if Mr.. Chandler will stir them up and make

repeat that Mr.. Clay has gone, He has gone,
home, to stay. We rejoice at It, in common
with the moderate and honest men of all pa,tes
we rejoice at 1t, because there is now some
hope that freed from his presence relieved from
the pressure of his disorganzing and destructive
councils Congress may do something for the
country While he s,aid there was no hope, but
even during the short time he has been gone.
better and more patriotic feeling seems to have
sprung up. Congress has quilted President

has been home long enough to become pretty
much forgotten, we hope and believe that Con

We copy the subjolned remarks from the
clicking Valley Register, published at Covng-
ton, Ky. The editor is a patriot, not partisan,
and it is matter of regret that there are not
more such in the country. The article from
which we make the extract dcprecates the sian
dtrous attacks made on other eminent men be-
sides the President-mon who are in opposition
to the Administration Thus we have indubta-
BILE evidence OF the writer's honesty. We
therefore invoke the attention Of members OF
Congress to the article. We assure them that
the President abhors, as much as the editor we
quote, the fierce political warfare raging in
some measure at present, and threatening TO in
crease in fury. Every beigerent demonstra-
ton on the part Of the Administration has been
made in self-defence. Self-preservaton only

charges preferred against him. was sentenced to be
publicly reprimanded by the Secretary of the Navy,
and to be suspended from his rank and command for
year. from the expiration Of his present term OF
suspension.
The sentence of the Court has been approved and

adoption of such measures as the distressed
country imploringly demands, and cease their
direct and covert attacks on The character and
reputation of those lawfully in power, then har-

RE ORGANIZATION OF THE NAVY.

We have received pamphlet entitled an Inquiry
into the Necessity and General Principles of Re-or-
ganlzation in the United States Navy" &c. Our
own experience does not qualify US to speak with the
authority Of knowledge the topics which this little
work undertakes to discuss. But Of late the public
mind has been awakened to the inquiry whether re-
form in the government of our Navy be not required
and how it is to be effected; of opinion that no
suggestion this subject should be neglected, and
we consequently heartily recommend this pamphlet TO
the attention Of our readers. The writer has evil
IDENTIFY read much and thought more the subject
which he treats, The tone of his writing is dspas-
sionate, and his style is one becoming scholar.
His Injections TO the system at present in force for
the government of our Navy are principally that the
laws vague and indefinite and that the officers
high in rank possess directly indirectly author
ty almost unlimited, and responsibility which is
without example in the British service, from which
we have continued to borrow Its faults, without its
equipondernting merits.

The extract from Northern paper, sent US
by valued friend, in relation 10 Tyson's re-
lection, conveys rather an equivocal meaning IN
the last sentence. A few days will tell We
are inclined to think the paper in question will
soon run up the black flag Indeed, we would
rather it should do so, than to continue its pro-
yoking neutrality. We would rather fight it,
while our ink is up, than have it standing in the
way :" in the thick Of the fight"
