THE GAME.

The Intelligencer insists upon it that the
President is an advocate of the American Sys-
tenn. This was intended as tert for the
Globe to preach from. Tomorrow we will
have text in the Globe for the Intelligencer TO
harp upon-and so they will ply the President
alternately from week TO week throughout the
session. When the smoke clears away, in
stead of finding the Administration demolished,
we predict that the allies will find themselves
cut 10 pieces by the rebound of their own shot.
These papers have perfect right TO define
the Presidents position in their own columns.
And SO they may, if they please, chalk his like
ness on barn-door and fire their pistols at it
but can they kill him in this way7 That is the
question.

Secretary Of the Navy:
The melancholy duty devolves upon me Of announc-
ing to the Department the untmey death of Passed
Midshpman John Smith Patterson, Of The u 3
Navy, Acting Master of the frieate Congress.
This officer was assassinated Friday evening
the 18th instant about ii O'clock in the town Of Ma
hon, while ON his return to the ship.
This foul and cruel murder has been committed
without any known provocation, and its very wan
tonnes has increased the deep distress felt for his loss
by his numerous and warmly attached friends and
messmates.
Every exertion is being made by the civil authori-
ties but has yet been discovered of the per-
petraior Of this horrid deed.
The deceased received three stabs with knife in
the left breast of which pierced his heart causing
instant death. His mortal remains inferred this
morning at the American burial ground with the usu-
al military honors
have the honor to be, very respectfully, your ODE

PRESIDENT TYLER AND THE WASHING.
TON GLOBE.

President Tyler, in adopting his present course
parated himself from the ultIaists, both of the Dem
ocratic and the Wing party. He looked to no party
for support and countenance, but followed implicitly
the dictates of his conscence-the teachings OF
that severe Republican school in which he had been
educated from his earliest initiation into political af-
fairs. This entire independence of action has secured
TO him the respect and adherence of an immense por-
ton of the population of this country who have had
reason to be disguised with partlsanship, and party
tactics from their disastrous operation on the inte
rests of the United States. That his course was cal
culated 10 open a breach with the ultra Wings was
circumstance too papable to be overlooked by the
most superficial observer, but that it should be OBJ
noxious 10 any consistent Democrat-or any acknow-
lodged Democratic organ, is matter as surprising as
il is unexpected
Within few weeks, however the Washington
Globe, paper claiming to be The organ of the Demo-
cracy oil the country, has come with the most i.
client abuse of the President and his Admlaisli alton
The motive for this assaul,--though the subject OF
general Tumor-we will not sully our columns 10y re-
Pcatng. Suffice it TO say that the Globe has attack
ed measures and principles which have always been
considered as closely allied to- if identified with
those by which The Democratic lary has always ox-
pres ed their readiness to stand or fall
We should be glad to be Informed upon what
grounds the Globe attacks the distinguished members
OF the Cabinet, Messrs Forward, Spencer, Upshur,
and begare, all tried and true of the old demo.
cratic schooll Mr. Webster too not long auo
avowtd himself democrat Of the JeIersonian school
Yet the Globe calls upon Mr.. Tyler, and that too.
not IN terms Of Cancellation, but in language of eff
froniery, 10 change his Cabinet For what purpose 7
Not to ill the Offices with democrats for democrats.
1t is well known, already employed bu, to give
place to radicals who sympatbised with
but by very small portion of the population of the
country. The attempt, however, TO force the Pres-
dent into coun'enancng clique will be found futile
