THE GLOBE, THE PENNSYLVANIA
AND THE ENQUIRER.

AND THE ENQUIRER.
These three newspapers are IN close union'
aud sworn Lroihers. The Globe sounds lis
,rumpet-lhe Pennsylvania responds, aud The
Enqlirer cries out at the top Of It's lungs,
"Weil done good aod uusty brothers"
James Madison Porter, sound Democrat, Is
called to the place of Secretary OF War The
Globe admits that il knows nothing about hun
while il abuses him-and calls upon the Pennsyl-
vanian 10 manufacture some tale about Judge Por-
Ter. The Pennsylvania responds in most
filthy article, aud the Enquirer delivels a long
homl, 10 John Tyler about Porter and Spen
cer-ia,e il was Mr. w ebster and the meshes
they are weaving for his feet, and is quite
-uphonious in chanting about ambition and
learned in quotations from Shakespeare.
Now, will the good reader ask himself the
reason OF all this po,h aud uproir 2
Mr.. Richie endorse, hi, coadjulurs most
strongly in their attacks on Judge Por-
Ter; and what is the leading objection
which is urged2 Nothing more DOr les, than
that Judge Porter supported Mr. Clay and OPP
posed General Jackson in 1924. Now would the
heart oil mau think il, thai Francis p. Blair was
the confidential friend and Intimate supporter OF
Mr.. Clay. in 1924 and that hr was the srenu-
Gus opponent OF Gen. Jackson at that same
hour? Coud any bod, b. made to believe that
the Pennsylvania was aclua.Iy established to
oppose Lea Juckson-aud tnat The R,chn ond
Enquirer was ab vi the same zine decla ing that

We cannot doubl but that the President W ii
fel himself highly indebted to Mr.. Richie for
his lecture on ambition. Be quiet, good Mr.
Richie, the President is not in leading strings,
although you would iain have Virginia believe
that he was. Do give US another chapter on
Webser il huence--i,sue new edition of your
discourse about meshes sprea for his feet by
Spencer, pho did cote for General Jackson,
Porer, who voted against him, possibly un-
der the Influence Of your own advice, aud then
finish of The whole by another lecture on am b.
ton, for the exclusive benefit fJohn Tyler and
no body else; and then good Mr. Richie ubi,h
our artcl's, so that your readers may see The
text along with the commentary. Do this, thou
Napoleon of the press, and Deel taxi the hind

Ii won't do, most worthy trio--you cannot
make the country believe that John C.. Spencer
or James Madison Porter are any other Than
sound Observation-Disclosures of the last
war; ana Republicans through all time, and if
you act under Mr. Van Burens orders in max
ing your attacks upon John Tyler then we can
only say that you had as well give it up
Eighteen out Of t,oenfy-sir States was the
condition OF things in lS40-quite too large a
majority foryou 10 overcome. The Democracy
