comment, from the New York EXPRESS, TO APP
pease the offended dignity of the United States
Gazette. The Gazette copied pupgent para

The editor of the " MApIsoNI,N" is distinguished
for two traits Of character rarely found together
s idiiy and kndreryor may be that both are seen
displayed to the public in the official organ through
the doubie-headed contributors to the paper The Ex-
press occasionally comes in for an attack from both
sources But the other day, the Courier, having in
cidenally taken ground against the treaty the Mad-
sonian let fly it, shafts at of the editors of the
Express who was absent from the city, for what the
Courier had said. The doll could not tell the differ
ence between the one and the other paper The ed
itor is told of his stupidity, and the stupid is at
once transformed into the rogse, and upon the prnci
ple that lie well stuck to- is better than the truth,
he sticks to his charge and adheres to his original
flsehood If little and common honesty
could be impaired to the official organ, the Admins
tration would be relieved of much of the contempt
felt against it.

TIE CONTEST IN New CONSTELLATION Of the Wing
.4r1ny--A correspondent of the Albany Argus gives
this description Of the Wing army in New York -
The old an-masonic legion will remain in its tents
rather than go out TO war for Mr.. Clay, mason,
against Mr.. Spencer, long and justly the cherished
and beloved disciple of anti-masonry. The abolition
lists are separating themselves quietly from the slave
holders army and his hosts. The friends of John
Tyler and the Constitution are falling back in the
centre to attack the Wing leaders in the rear, when
they shall have left the lines at sufficient distance for
penetrated by the Secretarys truths hesitating be-
tween the comfortable quarters of Tylerism and the
open field of rebellion under Clay, notwithstanding
the rawlings and voclferations of the braness leaders
The dreams of King Richard HIMSELF on the eve of
the battle of Bosworth were not more ominous of
defeat than the wild delirous shouts of the
pirng Wing dynasty"

il they could receive assurances that IN the mean
time no hostile movement would be made on the part
of the President. The full meaning Of this state
ment ha, now been developed by the declaration OF
a member of Congress, that message was carried
from the Wing leaders in Congress TO the President
TO the effect that If be would engage not 10 disturb
anv members of his then Cabinet in the enjoyment OF
their offices, the second Bank bill should be post
poned The answer to such proposition may be
easily conceived The effect OF that proposition was
10 prove the identity of the members OF the Cabinet
whose places were deemed in jeopardy with the hos
tile members of Congress- and If the design was to
precipitate matters, it was most efectual.

Mr.. STEPHENS FoRrHcoMrNG Work IN RELATION

YucATAN.-We are happy to learn that this work
may be expected. 1t will be recollected that
Mr. Stephens former work related almost emit ely to
Central America. In his second visit he gave new
direction TO his explorations and the antiquities of
Yucatan will be found still more surprising than those
previously brought to notice. Among the places Wis

Chichen was visited by Baron Frederchkstahl

more richly illustrated than the other and contains
upwards of one hundred engravings more than sixty

Fifth That the President is, or was, opposed

is false.
Sixth. That the President signed a worse
Tariff bill than he vetoed. Can the editors oil
the Globe be possessed of any shame, or has
desperation made them mad2 What means
this false and vicious declamalion2 Do those
men pretend TO say that Tariff, by itself, chow
ever bad, y is worse than Tariff, equally as bad)
and Distribution together2 The President, by
the Veto, forced the separation OF the two mea-
sures. This fact is acknowledged. And how
can the Globe be so disngenuous as to attack
the President for signing, ucder the same ext
gency which induced them TO rote for il, a Ia
riff bill passed by the votes of Democrats 2
From his sectional position, the President is a
Free Trade man. But John Tyler is now Pre-
sident of the United States, and, as such, he
becomes at once, as good, and honest, and
wise statesman ever will be, lberaized by his
station He will look TO the interests Of all, and
endeavor TO arrange, and compromise, and ac-
commodate the interests Of all, and this in des-
pite of ultraism, whether of the Globe or of the
Inteigencer
The great objection is, however, that there is
no declaration of principles. Hear US now, then,
What were Thomas Jeflerson's principles are
the Presidents.
He is opposed TO Bank. He is opposed TO
a High Protective Tariff, as injudicious and I'M
constitutional.
He is opposed TO Distribution. Heis in favor
of his EYchequer pan-or, if Congress modify
it, by striking out the limited feature of the ex-
changes, he will sign it.
lie is thoroughly opposed TO the 'American
SYSTEM" SO called, in every feature, internal
improvements by the General Government, as
sumption of the State debts, &C., &c.
He is opposed to Federalism in all forms and
shapes.
In other, and plain language, he is a Jefferso-
man Democrat
He has made an honorable peace with Eng
land-and he will equally maintain the honor of
the Government with all nations.
What else does the Globe require? In con-
clusion, the President will put his heel on ultra
ism, of all SORTS, if he can, keeping in view the
ascendancy of the great Democratic party, on a
safe and permanent basis.
