1t u que slonably looks lillle uncharabe TO
destroy the well matured and cunning schemes oil
these very patriotic and viftuous ''coniedefales."
But sense Of duty will not admit OF our being
thrust into a false position by the wholesale
misrepresentation Of The Globe, nor gently
whispered out Of our proprety by the soft per
suasion, the brain-stealing music, of the siren
Gales.
The Intelligencer began the war-deadly and
uncomplomsIng, to be satisfied with nothing
less than the destruction of the Presdent-on
the Administration. And why? Because The
President could not be the tool Of party. The
editors and their coadjuioTs miscalcula,ed the
sterling patriotism, and sense of justice, OF
the Democratic people of the Conlederacy.
The People have sustained the President rl.
umphantly, and he now regards with perfect
Indifference tn, impotent and ill-cOncealed ma

And now word TO the Globe. Recently it has
daily assaed the Republican administration.
While zoe were exulting over the prosiraton of

who had voted for Harrison and Tyler in 1910,
and who, sieadlasl in their Democratic faith, had
sustained Tyler and Democracy, against the
war Of Federalism-at the moment the rictory

its lerocious attack! What does it purpose in
