sttemp, TO conceal H. To conceal il, under 'he
des that Democratic Presidents 10 be mace
as a matter of course, as lovers in novel many
of course, is the height Of folly, and would result
in certain defeat to the cause. When, IN ada'
lion to this fact we come to recoleel that IN the
late election New Yo'k, more than sufficient 10
elect the Wing President according TO our nm
preston, has unques,ionably thrown majority
of the popular rofe against the Democratic par
ty, the most discreet and decided steps should
have been at once taken 10 Insure the success
oflhe Republican cause.
This view of the case, however, II Il struck
members al all, did not prevail on them 10 all'r
their course previously determined on And we
have now only 10 say again, that the responsio'-
lily of victory o, defeat in The next Presidential
election is with them.
P.S. We are authorized TO state that II was
not The Hon. Mr. Buchanan who communicated
to Mr.. Blair The conversation alleged TO have Ia
ken place between HIM and Mr.. Robert Tyler.
Indeed we have reason 10 know that The honor-
able Senator would highly disapprove OF such
repetilions Of conversations which might take
place at his rooms
The Integencer has been frightened into
COW ulsions by the warke tone of the Extra
Madisonian. It's leading article CT this morn
ing begins thus:
AN extra" EXTRAORDINARY
"A grand design, not avowed, nor even limited at,
in the Message of the President Congress, is enter
tanned by somebody other, and disclosed by the
Government paper, which cannot fail to be imputed
to the Administration elsewhere than here at least,
until dsavowed by il, as we trust will be without

Great Britain to help il out Does the reader doubt
of such consummate folly as well he may, let him
put his glasses and run his eye over the follow Ing,
which made its appearance in the House Of Repre-
senta,ives, in the form Of an ENta of the Govern
ment paper, during the sitting Of that body yester
day"
SO the astu,c editor of the Ineigencer has
at length discovered that ga grand design, no,
avowed, nor even limited at, in the Message,
is entertained by somebody or other I" On this
suspicion the IntelIigencer does not say whe-
Their the President, the Secretary OF State, OF
" somebody or other" should be hanged for it.
But it says it "canDot fail TO be imputed to the
Administration, until disayowed by it, as We
trust it will be without delay" And this be-
cause of our famous extra yesterday, containing
a leading editorial from leading Wing paper,
prefaced by some remarks of our own.
Well, if we must be sacrificed to appease the
lntelligencer,o or any other offended foreign pou-
er, we are ready for the flames. We not only re-
iterate what we said yesterday, but we go fur
Their and say it is our deliberate opinion that the
Government of Great Britain is determined TO
check our Republican career, and humble our
national pride, either by humilia,ing conditions
or the force OF arms. We believe tina, the par
tial destruction of British commerce, which
would ensue in the event of war with the
United States, is not so much dreaded as a
powerful and permanent rivalry through all
future time.
We believe that the success of our ins,itu-
tons is regarded by Great Britain as inimcal TO
her security; and that we are destined TO mea-
sure arms with her again, (and in this we but
repeat the opinion of her own hisiorans,) or 10
submit 10 wanton insult and premediIated IN
jury As an American editor, we do not hest
tate to proclaim our preference of the first of the
alternatives.
The Intclligcucer says We have Deen guilty
of contempt of the House of Representatives,
in sending thither cur extras. IL this be so, we

So did we compel the members TO read them,
and adopt our opinions. But they read them or
not, Just as they pease-and just as they do
with all other papers laid upon their desks.

says it imputes "no partof the weakness or
wickednessn to the Executive. That is right

The Inelligcncer concludes its trembling ar

National interests, our readers may be assured tina
