THE TRICKS OF THE CRAFT.

Misrepresentation seems to be the order of the
day with certain set of politicians who, not
contented with quoting and making whatever
comments they may think fit on the political
doctrines of the I" Madisonan,'' as they are GER
anly entitled to do, descend to the meanness of
msstating and garbing its alleged contents to
suit their own dishonest purposes. Were such
thing to be done in private life it would con-
sign the author Of it to everlasting ignominy
why it should not meet with similar reward
when perpetrated on public journal The
trick has not even the merit of novelty to sus-
tain it, and we would advise those who disclaim
the government Of honor, TO entitle themselves
at least to the unenviable notoriety that would
attach to some neao mode of attempting 10 mis-
lead the People. Whatever we write we are
ready to sustain by facts and by argument, and
all that we ask is fair play under the assurance
that, aohenerer 1oe feel ourselves in the lcrong,
we shall be promptin correcting the error. We
advocate the cause of the Administration be-
cause we believe it to be the cause of Justice
and enlightened patriotism; and whenever our
opponents can point 10 one OF us measures tnat
is not calculated to promote the welfare Of the
country, we will be the first to abandon it. AS
for men, whatever may be our individual pre-
ferences and attachments, we regard them as
literally nothing when compared with mea-
sures. Let it bat appear that the policy advo-
Gated by President Tyler and his Cabinet is not
an honest, elevated, and enlightened policy, and
whatever may be our feelings toward the men
concerned, we will at once abandon it, Perhaps
we expect too much when we look for fair
dealing at the hands Of the presses and persons
devoted to Mr. Clay and his fortunes. If we
have been in error, we regret it, and shall in flu
ture take especial pains to withhold respect or
confidence from such things and such men. In
using so pitful weapon as that of misquotd-
ton and misrepresentation our opponents put
themselves beyond our reach, for we confess
that we cannot play at so paltry game. Honor
is the subject Of our story, and when men for
get that, all we can do is to despise them.
