MR.. MANGUMs SPEECH.

J We ind in The last Standard sort of
1criiique upon the speech Of Mr.. Mangum,
Irecenily delivered in The Senate upon the
Exchequer bill. In forming his critique,
the editor Of the Standard copies pretty
largely from the "Index;" indeed f-rn
the hodgc-podge be has made Of il, we
judge his whole article was picked mp
from some such source. For however
burdened may be his conscience, il is We
ry easy TO suppose that lie has not sub
mlIted to 4" so severe discipline" as to
read the speech; and this we can suppose
the more readily, as il accounts for the
greediness with which he fell into the
trap which the editor of the "Index"
spread for his credulily. The Standards
k'orn regard for truth, forbids the idea
that he would miyuliy misrcprescnt any
mans words for party purposes; bu, as
he "does not believe in the doctrine Of pc
nance" he may feel very little disturbed
at being made the cats paw Of another.
We cannot therefore suppose that he will
correct his errors, even should he hereaf.
ter condescend 10 read the speech.
The Standard is very lavish in his abuse
OF Mr.. Mangum, and Processes to be dole
fully alarmed lest the Devil may put it
into Mangum's head to quit the Wings
and fall into the Democratic ranks" IL
the alarm was real, we would cndcavor
to quiet the worthy editor, BY assuring
him there was not the smallest danger of
his being thus afflicted. But we suspect
the alarm is all occasioncd by the eff
cheney with which Mr.. Mangum operates
against their party; and that if I" the De-
viz could succeed in seducing Mr.. Nam
gum "into the Democratic ranks" he
would be received with as loud and en-
ihusiasiic joy as was The celebrated South
Carolina nullilier, who whilom was quite
as much abused in the columns Of lie
Standard.
OF the misrepresentation and perver-
sions in the Standards article we need
take little notice. We published The
whole Of Mr.. Mangum's speech in our
paper Of last week, and our readers will
not fail to perceive and admire its perfect

that the passengers were all murdered for
