The daily Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1841-1845, 1843-11-07
AN ANSWER.
The following is the concluding paragraph Of
an abusive article in yesterdays Globe


More than week ago We called upon the organ
Of MIR. Tyler and bis Administration 10 say whether
they will abide BY the decision OF the National Con
venon Of the Democracy, called 10 assemble al Bal
tmore ia May next and will support It's nominations
We repeat the question"
The Globe is frightened about the printing.
Can it be possible that the editor OF the Globe
ever supposed for moment that the Demoera-
tic party would endorse his foul abuse OF the
President, during the last twelve months when
he should have been combating the common
enemy2 Can il be possible that Mr.. Blair sup
poses men of honor, under any circumstances,
after having been grossly and wantonly yilupe-
rated by him, will ever submit 10 his guldancei
To suppose this is 10 suppose that The Renubll-
can party would rather endorse the Globe, by
besiowing It's patronage on IT, than 10 secure
the success of the Democratic candidate for The
Presidency in lS4i-which The stars forbid .or
we all desire his election
Can the Globe bring any additional str myth
10 the party by being endorsed2 Can il injure
il by being repudiated win the co-opc,e,ion
Of the friends of The Administration be OF vaue3
VIII their expulsion, by endorsing the Globe,
be injurious These are questions TO be consi-
dercd.
Mr. Tyler and hi, friends declare themselves
10 be Democrats-as good Democrats, by any
test that can be devised as any under the sun.
They nave repeatedly and unequivocally 10 i
mated Their desire TO conform 10 all the usages
of the the Republican party But the Globe
would not sanction it-and continued TO- will y
the President. Never. perhaps, has Presi-
den, been so much and so grossly abused by
any reckless sheet, as President Tyler has oecn
by the Globe. The President has done all in
his power, that President could with prop y
do, TO promote the interests and insure the sue
cess Of the Republican party but still the Globe
villified him. The President appointed Demo
Gratis TO office: the Globe copied all the abuse
uttered against him for il, that appeared in the
Clay papers. The friends ofthe President raj
lied on the Tetoes, and since Is have contrib
uted to secure TO the Republican party State
after State, hitherto Wing: but nevertheless
The Globe assailed them all, and conende
mos, perlinaciously that they should vote for
the Federal Uhie candidate in 1874. | -, the
Globe a Federal Wing paper? Else why
should il be so anxious to secure the election Of
the Federal Wing candidate ? This is 1ues-
ton for the Democratic party TO decide. II it
be a Federal Wing sheet, it will afford us much
pleasure 10 pay il back with interest all the as
sauts on the Administration lis editor has
written, or copied from the Clay papers. If it
b. not Federal Wing sheet our pleasure will
not be SO great; but, neverhe SIS, as long as
we have shot in the locker, we intend TO return
It's fre-past, present, and future.
If Mr. Van Buren, should be the nominee of
the Globe his organ for the campaign, we would
take il for granted that he did not desire any
friend of President Tyler's Administration to
vote for him; for has not the Globe repeatedly
sad-does it not yet say, that we are all "rene
gades and apostates," and that we shall not
enjoy any fellowship with the Democracy
Kendalrs Expositor put the question to the
Globe, whether it would, or would not support
Mr.. Tyler for the Presidency in preference to
Mr.. Clay if he should be the nominee Of the
Democratic Convention. The Globe in reply,
said it would not support him-and that "to
suppose he would be nominated by the Demo
cratic party was to suppose the party destitute
of principle" But now, fearing the printing,
or even portion of II cannot b. had, ills TiNing
TO suppose The "parfy destitute Of priacipie,'
and asks US the question contained in the para
graph quoted above! We regard the question
in the Globe precisely as we would if it had
appeared in the Lou Vile Journal-with con-
tempt.
The Democratic party to be successful must
be just and TO be just, such impurities as the
Globe must be eliminated. It the vetoes saved
the party, it will be lost again the moment il
dscards the author of them. The Presi-
dent brought such accessions to the Republican
party, when it was in a minority, as to place it
at once in the ascendency; and now, if thc
Globes abuse Of the President and his ac-
cessions, should be approved and endorsed
would it not be natural to see the party
resume the hopeless predicament it was in, in
ls4l7 And yet it would not be more natural
than true
If the Globe should be the organ Of The Dem
ocratc party in 1914 how could we charge upon
Mr.. Clay his corrupt "bargdin AMI sale" with
Mr.. Adams, which cheated General Jack on out
of the Presidency Would not the Wing pa
pers rctort upon US, and quote the following tes-
timony taken in the Kentucky Senate7
J. DUDLEY's STATEMENT.
J. Dudley, Esq, Senator, from Franklin and
Owen counties, being called upon, made the fol-
lowing statement on the floor # the Senate One
day, in January, 1926 f. p. Flair came into
the Senate Chamber, seated himself near me, and
inquired my opinion on the resolution passed request
ing members Of Congress 10 vote for General
Jackson as President Of the United States. Mr.. h.
desired that would write letters requesting the mem
bers and particularly d. White, from tbs district 10
consult with Mr.. Clay end voc as he might desire.
