| Messrs Porter, Henshaw, aud Nelson, alone

eyes, because Of their acceptance Of olilee l.

| the Globe hold this to be so when It's editor was
printer to the Departments, or when II printed
for one branch of the Legislature, and the Intel
| gencer for the other2
| But the Globe is not satisfied with the ex-
preston of its own opinions, aud with venting
its bile upon the members OF the Cabinet IL
assumes TO r, ad Democratic presses out OF the
party, and plays Sir oracle as if IT were the
mbodiment of the Democracy.
! OF The editor Of the Boston Post, one oil the
ablest and soundest of Tie expounders oil The
Democratic faith, the Globe says
"Mr. Greer has aiuays worn bis politics like
a 100 &C ROBE, maze 10 III any Douy, oui VI "
| Tor that might be called Democratic
| Ay, and of color that you have Arrays
called Democratic, and which never had cray
lint about it, nor any Of the odor OF the clay
and adams "Coahfion," TO offend the nostrls
OF the People, or smell 10 Heaven with the faint
of bargain and corruption. The Globe deals
out similar auathemas upon every Democratic
press which has the independence TO approve OF
the acceptance Of Office under Mr.. Tyler by
Messrs. Henshaw and Nelson.
In reference TO the Democ ralic pr SIS al Provl-
dence, Rhode Island, he Globe says, when
speaking Of Mr.. Henshaw, "we are amazed
TO see tina; any dexterty could d'aw puff out
of the Rhode Island Democ at c organ"
The Glote's amaZement will increase with
its days, until the meeting Of Congress, when
| it will run in counter direcon for the wond, r
then ~ i'll be not that Mr.. Tyler has been sus-
tanned and his recent course approved, but that
any true Democrat should have so far blinded
himself and moderated the poi ular int, sence,
as to have withheld open and active support
from patriotic Chef Magistrate.
We have arrived at pretty Pass truly, il
thtre is no Democra ic press but the Globe, and
no Democratic candidate for the Presidency but
MrVan Buren,. Time was, when The proceed
! ings of Conventions and other IN, eiings friend
| ly to Colonel Johnson, General Cass, Mr.. Cal
houn, Mr. Buchanan, and M. Van Blu en-, found
ready admission into the Globe but, now, The
Globe is the only Bible and Mr. Van Bur the
only Priest Of the Democracy No Democrat
questions the right Of MIR Van Buren's friends
I to press him for denomination, no Demo
cratic press, having any claims to espcctab lily,
will disparage his pretensions; but, on the other
hand, the excusiveness of the Globe, in his be-
hall, wall surely produce determination on the
part OF other candidates TO b, treated as mem
bers OF The same great political family. So the
assaults Of the Globe upon those Democrats
who dare TO axe office under Mr.. Tyler will be
resen' ed by their ireuds, and reaction must
and will follow.
| The DemocI attic press has not yet sunk SC
| - b,,-- .i.~ Dsooe arrugates
the office Of political dictator and il will soon
] find that Mr.. Van Buren, himself has too much
good sense TO countenarce lis course. Ii is al.
ready rumored that the ex-President is much
annoyed by he r,chlessn,ss with which the
seeds Of dissenslon are scattered, far and wide
b. the woud-bc monopolist of all the Demo
crazy.
The Globe has assaed the Bo ton Post, but
thus far, the Post has spared any direct replica
ton. That paper, Of the 20th instant, contains
however, some sound comments on a worthy
co-Iaborer in the GLOBES proscrptve field, which
we commend TO the latter journals serious me
citation.
The comments of the Post are found,d on an
alternative presented by the New Hampshire
Argus u the Democracy-on which, the Posi-
thus discourses in part;
1.-THE New Hampshire Argus says the democra
cy have but two alternatives IN this matter. The,
must take the administration Of President Tyler OF
lis heir shoulders and assume all its sins and mi
quites, it they must boldly denounce and repudi
ate all democrats who will connect themselves with
it, We adds the Argus, ARE for the latter course
This IS making up false Issue. Neither OF these
alternatives exist, and We spprehend that the Demo
crazy will adopt neither. There Is a common sense
view Of III, mstter which is practical and more
in conformity with that main principle which the De
mocracy have always stood upon, of everything for
measures, and nothing for men, II a measure il
soundly Democratic, they will take il and approve it
though II come from Wing; II IT be not Democrat
ic they will reject IT, though urged upon them by tn,
most prominent Democrat"
Our space Will not permit us TO transfer the
comments Of the Post cntIre, but we commend
the subjoned extract TO the conside alton oil
every unboughl nd unterri6ed Democrat:
Do we want measures or do we want po,rer merely
II the latter Is the AIM then must reject our mea
sures, unless offered to us by our own men. Sup
| pose MIR. Tyler, in his next message, recommend,
| the independent Treasury, the emphatic measure oil
| Mr.. Van Buren's able administration Must the De
| mocrscy take the alternative Of the Argus, and de-
| nounce ard repudiae their measure because Mr.
| Tyler and his Cabinet adopt now, upon the sober
second thought" that which he signed bill OF the
| hard cider Congress to repoali Suppose he recon-
| mends revenue tarf-no distribulIon--no a,sump.
