THE PROSPECTS AHEAD.

We mean not the prospects Of this or that po-
lltlcal party. When we penned the words We
were rejecting on "a more agreeable subject
the prospective prosperity of the country. We
do not belong TO the class of quibblers, and pre-
fer always TO look at the most favorable aspect
which things may present. We like enjoyment,
and naturally possess hope. From experience
we are believers in the maxim Of the great mo-
ralis, that hope constitutes our enjoyment
Notwithstanding all the gloomy forebodings
which are uttered by those who are fond of in
duglng in gloomy reveries, or whose interests
may be promoted by representing our present
condition as calamitous, we prefer TO look for
ward to the visions of prosperity which our own
observation, and the information which reaches
us from every quarter Of the country, teach us to
anticipate.
From the wisdom Of legislation we may not
have much to hope. If that were our only de-
pendence, our hope might not be bright. But the
abundant harvests, the prospects Of the farmer,
the well-grounded calculations of the liller OF
the earth, that he will reap an abundant crop,
are the well-founded basis Of cheerful feelings
which the prospect before us communicates.
The action Of the Legislature operates but lit
! tie in favor of the agriculturist We have
but one wish, as politicians, TO express--that he
will receive no injury by the settlement Of the
great Tariff question, which is now pending
Our thoughts are Of so cheerful character, tina,
we wish TO anticipate no evil. We trust that
none is TO conceive are unwilling that any is to
come from the battle of interests which will
shortly agilate Congress.

Democrats of New York attempted TO make a
political question of it, and sought to get up a
breeze Of popular odium against the President,
whose sympalhies were, and are. as honestly on
the side of the Suffrage party as their own. lie
only desired the People to abstain from violence
to refdse to levy war against the established
Goyernment-to reject the arms profiered by
the Destructves, who still kept themselves out
of reach of danger-and rely upon the current
of public opinion to do them justice. Public
opinion will get make them successful, if they
are not led astray by the demagogues. Mr.. AL
len was their champion in the Senate, while
Mr.. Calhoun, and forty other Democratic mem
bers of Congress, deprecated not only Mr. A.'s
rash movement, but the whole proceeding of
violence contemplated by Dorr Thus the Ut
most confusion prevailed, and yet prevails, on
this subject. If the Wing prints alluded to per-
sist in their project, another split must take
place in that party. If the Democratic prints
persist, that party is sundered in twain.

Wing measure, though some Of the ultra Demo-
Gratis Joined them in il. Even the partisan press
of both sides is alno 1t furious in condemnation
of this reduction, and if the mount deducted

remains of both peftes will very probably be

ing that all the Corwn papers in Ohio, without ex-
cepton, strong in abuse of President Tyler and
his acts, not altogether correct, and that we
ought to have excepted at least some five or six
newspapers, the editors Of whom favored the nomi-
nation of Corwin, and have his at their mast
