REMOV AIS.

When hostility against any man has become
violent and inveterate, reasons for denounc-
ing him will never be found wanting. -
Nothing stimulates invention like hatred. =
Ever since the vetoes, ne President has been
running the gauntlet of slander-every day fur
nishing new evidences of the creative powers
of the malignity which his enemies take no
pains to conceal. The most ridiculous of all
the attacks made upon him, is the charge OF
acting in contravention to his professions in his
removals from Office Of persons who are said to
have suffered prescription merely because they
are opponents in sentiment of the measures of
his Admin stration. A sweep, it is declared
has been made from the Custom House in Phi
ladelphia, of every man who is not an avowed
friend of President Tyler.
Before we come to the conclusion of con-
demning the President of acting inconsistency
with his profession, let an inquiry be made into
the facts Extend to him the privilege-or
rather, the right-enjoyed by every man who
is accused. The People form an equitable tri-
bunal, and will not condemn without giving a
hearing.
w NAT are the ldClS "A certain HumDeI Vi
persons holding office in Philadelphia have been
summarily dismissed. Such is the statement
in some of the papers, They have been dismissed
(they say) not for any delinquency-not for IN
competence-not for malversation in office-not
Tor active interference in elections-not, in fine,
for any iustifable cause-but because they are
known or supposed to be unfriendly to the Ad-
ministration of John Tyler. Some the papers
which state the fact of the dismisson, assign
also the motive, which we have mentioned.
We feel bound to believe their statement of
the fact-but we are at liberty to doubt their I'M
errancy in conjecluring the motive. The Presi-
dent, we presume, has not made known yet to
the public, or whispered in the ear of the edi-
tors of these papers, the motives by which he
was Influenced. The mere fact OF the dismiss
ais proves no inconsistency between the con
duct and the professions of the President. I'LL
we have better authority than any we have YET
seen, we will not believe that the President has
acted from unworthy motives, or that his prac-
tice clashes with his professions.

CONGRESS AND THE NEW APER PRESS

The New York American makes these remarks, on
the recent threat Of Mr. Bolts to for the expul
sion of certain reporter because he censured the con-
duct of Congress with freedom. The Justice of the
remarks, and of the comparison instituted between
members of Congress and editors, will not be denied
by many
Mr.. Bolts menaces reporter on the floor with ex-
pulson, because he describes men and things as he
them; and Mr.. B. seems to the admission of
reporters at all matter of courtesy
This preposteIous idea is borrowed we presume,
from the British House of Commons where to this
day. it is we believe, technically breach of privilege
report any speech. But in this country, it is by
righi and not by courtesy, that the public may both
hear and report the speeches of legislatos-a right
only to be abridged by the physical impossibty of
accommodating more than limited number within
the legislative hall. As to the tone in which repo-
ters correspondents conductors of newspapers are
somewhat spoken of in Congress, we know nothing
fitted to excite contempt As body, the per-
sons connected with the public press-venal and
worthless portions of that press aremay compare
advanlageousIy in all respects of character, inte
gence aitanments, and patriotism, with members Of
Congress Indeed, we rather think the comparison
derogatory upon the whole, to the Press for its
humbIest duties could scarcely be fulfilled by some Of
those vino yet end their way to the House Of Repre-
sentatives.
