THE GLOBE AND THE ADMlNlSTRA
TION.

TION.
Our readers are aware that we copied an arti-
Gle from Mr. KendalPs Expositor, lew days
ago, which, as far as the editor of that journal
was concerned, fully and frankly admitted Mr..
Tyer's right to admission in the Convention to
be held in Baltimore in 1914, with the other Re-
publican candidates for the Presidency, and
pledged himself, in the event of his nomination,
to support him. This admission, or declaration,
has given mortal offence to the Globe. The
Globe is aware that the opinions of MIR. Ken
dali are esteemed as highly by the Democracy
as its own. Ii knows, and the Democratic par
ly remembers, that it was Mr.. Kendals pen
which furnished the Joye-ke thunders for the
columns of the Globe, which moved down the
serried ranks Of Federal Whiggery, when the
concerted attempt was made to SANDER away
the character of General Jackson for vetoing the
Bank bill The Globe is also aware that Mr..
Kendall is a sincere friend of Mr.. Van Buren,
that he, Mr.. " B., is his first choice for the
Presidency, and that he is doing everything in
his power, in good faith, to secure his re-elec-
ton. Aware Of all this, it is not to be wonder
ed at that the editor of the Globe is both offend
ed and Disconnected by. the avowal of his old
Mentor-lhe Moses who smote the rock of
Bankism, whence gold gushed forth into the lap
of the Globe-who divided the sea of Adams
Federalism that the present editor of The Cube
might pass through and find refuge in the Dem
ocrarc camp-and, finally, who is now confined,
like Daniel in the den, for too strict devotion
to his duty--we say, when Amos Kendall de-
clares that he is in favor of Mr.. Tyler's claims
being considered in the National Convention,
aud that he will support him if nominated, it is
quite natural for the Globe, in its degenerate
days, to be both enraged and alarmed. For the
Globe has endeavored in vain to overwhelm the
President with food Of v6calion--to sink
him under the weight Of innumerable abusive
epilhets-to drive him and his friends from the
ranks of the party by afixing TO his name
thousand vulgar adjeclives, and by indirectly
threatening the party itself with its vengeance
if he is countenanced.
The Globe raved most incoherently on this
subject yesterday. 1t sneers at the merit of dis
missing abusive Clay Federalists from Office
and the appointment of Republicans. We ex-
pected no less, after it joined the Wings in
abusing the President for dismssing Van Rens-
selaer from the Albany Post Office, and appoint
ing true Democrat in his place. But no merit
is claimed on such grounds-the Presidents
Democracy is proven by bis measures.
The Globe a,tempts-and such an attempt
to condemn the Presidents principles. 1t
says the Presidents friends "united in passing
the Haglious tariff, which subver,ed the compro-
mise act, on which the Democracy was willing
TO rcpose."
The pubic needs no comment from us on
such gIaringly false allegation. The country
knows that the President vetoed two unjust
tariff bills, and that the "hagiious tariff" which
was signed was passed by the casting vote Of
Mr. Wright, one of Mr., Van Buren's most
valued friends, and advocated by some thirty
Democrats altogether, under conviction that
there would be no means for carrying on the
Government, should Congress adjourn (Which
would have been done) without making some
other provision. The country knows that Pre-
sident Tyler vetoed the tariff bulls las stated in
bis messages) 10 prevent the Globes new land
Oily fiend, Mr.. Clay, from subverting the
compromise act" Such are the reasons adj
duced by the Globe for denouncpg The Pres-
dent " without reserve J" and in the face of the
notorious fact that the Wing majority in the
last Congress compelled the adoption Of the
present tariff (though but temporarily as the
only alternative to prevent the " subversiou" Ct
the Government itself This the Globe will
moi denv Eorfun,tolv MO have n CI,bo b,, ,,z
of recent date, which admits the point, and
proves its present glazing Inconsistency 1t says
"TuE PREsIpENr WAS COMPELLED nv The VINES
OF THE CoNcREss TO SIGN THE Bill, OR LEAVE
THE COUNTRY wrruoUT LAW ron THE COLLECTION
OF THE REVENUE"
Another allegation IT, that the President sign
ed the repeal Of the Sub-Treasury. The re-
peal as demanded by clear majority of the
Sovereign People of the United States and
when repealed, the President signed the bill
In 1910 the question of repeal was everywhere
submitted to the decision Of the ballot-boxes
And vet the President, we dare say, knowing
the obloauy that would be beaped on him for We
TONG the Bank bill, could have desired the act
to stand But Mr. Tdn Buren, is glad it was
repealed. Will the Globe promise TO get an
avowal from Mr.. Van Buren, noD, that he will
recommend its re-euacment, If re.eected2 i
MIR. Calhoun in favor of it2 Or Mr.. Buchanan
Col. Johnson, or Governor Cass7 Can the
Globe get such an avowal from any of them
Is the Globe itself in favor of it2 Will any
candidate desire to raise the cry agains
himself OF "one currency for the ofice-bold
ers, and another for the People 2'' If
majority Of the People shall desire NJ
change, We doubt not President TYLER wi
be content. The Hon. G. j. Inoersoll ,ba
whom 'here exists no wiser statesman, does nc
hesitate to declare that the existing law for tn
safe keppinp of the nuhlic mana,
