THE ATTACKS OF THE GLOBE.

No person more sincerely regrets the danger
Gus course, which the Globe has seen proper to
adopt, than we do. We do not regret ii on our
own account, nor that we apprehend it will at
feet the policy Of the Administration. A man
of ordinary perception must see that the great
mass of The Republican party will support the
President; but we regret II, sincerely regret 1t,
on account of the infatuated radical clique,
which claims the Globe as its erclusire organ.
We knoap that the individuals composing this
clique, and the paper itself Gf its present course
is persisted in,) are desc nding the broad road
to ruin. Yet such mere shadoi1 Of third
party, however mpotent for good, may effect
much evil for the great Republican parry
Therefore we regret the insane course Of the
Globe.
From the innumerable deprecaory express
sions of the Democratic press before us, we Sc
lect the following. hoping it will not be neces-
sary to continue the publication of such evden-
ces of failure on the part of the Globe to get
up hostile feeling in the country against the
President.
FROM the To,papda PA Democrat
THE NATIONAL DEMONSTRATION.
We have repeatedly commended he administration
of President Tyler to the support of the Democratic
party and it is deeply to be regretted that have
those amongst us with stronger attachments to
than to pri ciples,) who manifest disposition to OPP
pose the measures of the administration regardless
of their merits seemingly from other than
because John Tyler elected Vice President upon
| the ticket with General Harrison This course is
pusilanimous in those who pursue it, and it is suici-
dial to the best interests of the Democratic party and
the country. If President Tyler is Democrat
! land such he has shown himself)-f his adminsts IA
| ton is Democratic what matters it by whose votes
he was elected to the Vice Presidency If when
placed in the Presidential chair by act of Prov-
dence, DUTY predomDated PARTY, and led him
| to administer the Government of the country upon
Democratic princip pies, ought not that country to be
| the more grateful and the more confding!
| President Tyler has merited the confidence and
support Of the Democracy of the Union, by his indie
pendent and be it not said to his dsparage-
ment that he has given his signature to some obnox-
| ious measures, when those measures could never
have reached him but for the votes of Democratic
members Of Congress. But who can point us TO the
President who has passed through his term without
approving measures obnoxious to portion of the
Democratic party 1t cannot be done.
| We regret extremely that the Globe and other
Democratic papers should find it necessary to indulge
in an unjust and senseless warfare upon the present
| Democratic National Administration. Has the Pre-
sident got those in his Cabinet who are obnoxious to
us He has too many of the characteristics of cold
II ckory' in his composition, TO be forced to turn
them out. There is nothing to be gained by this
ceaseless, unmtigated abuse, and why Is it kept up
