We ask, if a man for whose services, thou

Mr.. Benton and the Globe, and the politicians
they represent can only succeed in their views,

Treaty, and refusing by heir votes to pay the
sum Of money agreed to b. paid to Maine and
Massachusetts.
I'd. By reading the Democratic members
Of the Senate, toelre Of them, aoho cooled for
the treaty, out Of the party. The movement
has already been made in Missouri. They have,
in a public meeting under Bentons auspices,
been formally denounced. Why don't the
Globe publish their proceedings? But what

Can these men reasonably expect to carry the
Democratic party along with them? They
have faint hope of gulling that party, of be-

termination is TO rule or ruin," and we CO IT.
DENLY predict, and we beg the Democracy OF
the country to mark what we now say, union,
as a last resort, between Benton, the Globe and
the politicians they represent, and the arch lead
er Of Federalism. The compliments which
Mr.. Clay lately paid Mr. Benton were a little
significant, and the Courier & Enquirer, the
leading Clay organ in the State of New FORK
is open and undsguised in its expressions.
AS yet the attacks of the Globe have fallen
still-born. We believe and hope the day of its
influence to do mischief has gone by.
What right has that paper to be commanding
the Democracy as 10 measures or men? Is De
mocracy Beingto be dictated to?
The Globe talks about other peoples Federal
ism Did not the Globe once support Clay ant
Adams against Jackson? What were Adams
principles then =?
And let it be always borne in mind that it wa
the Globe and its clique of politicians who de
feated the Democratic party of 1870
