WHAT is A DEMOCRATIC

Is this question to be resolved by referring to
the question:" Whom did you vote for here
tofore for the Presidency or did you sustain
this or that measure p" The last may be good
test, but not the first.
According TO the FIRST, is Francis P. Blaira De-
mocrat7 Ifuniform opposition to Henry Clay is
to be the test, then Mr. Blair is no Democrat, be-
cause he was the decided friend of Henry Clay
against the old Hero, and all the word,-the
chief instrument used to make Henry Clay Sc.
cretary Of State. Mr.. Blair, then, according to
this rule, is no Democrat.
Is'uniform advocacy Of General Jackson an
unerring test Of Democracy, then the editors o
the Enquirer and Albany Argus are no Demo
Gratis for the one declared that General lack
son wds so ignorant that he could not consfrut
the piainest section Of an act of Congress
and the other denounced him in uumeasurcc
terms. They then, are no Democrats.
Is Mr.. Van Buren, a Democrat If those
who voted for Mr.. Madison are Democrats, and
those against him Federalists, then Mr.. Var
Buren, having voted against Mr.. Madison, is nc
Democrat.
Is Mr.. Calhoun a Democrat He opposed
General Jackson's administration and voted
against Mr.. Van Buren, as Minister to England
According to this test, then, he is no Democrat
And so on through the whole category and,
at this rate, we have scarcely Democrat in the
land.
Let us come to measures. Is he alone De-
mocrat, who voted against the Bank Internal
Improvements, and Protective Tariff
Mr. Van Ruren cannot be Democrat. because
he votei to erect turnpike gates on the Cum
bcrand road, and for the Tariff of 1928. and
declared, in his Albany speech, that he would

have vossd for the preceding tariff, bad he been
present According TO this test, 'heo, he is no
Democrat.
Is Mr.. Calhoun a Democrat He voted fr
the last Bank. md sought also To reaew It's
charter, for the purpose, as he expressed u, "ol
uabanking The Bank, through the Bank" Ac-
cording 10 this test he, then, is no Democrat
Is George M. Dallas, William wilkins, and
C. J. Ingersoll, Democrats They advocated
the renewal of the charter of the Bank, &c, &c.
According TO this test, then, they are no Demo
Gratis.
Is the Sub-Treasury a test OF Democracy 2
Then is the editor of the Enquirer no Democrat (;
for he opposed il Justly, and never las es-
poused it.
Now, will the candid editors who oppose Mr.
| rylers administration, give us definition OF
what they mean by Democracy Come, lay
down your rule, gentlemen, and LET TaE People
APPLY 1T.

THE BAGPIPES IN HAVANA.

nations Of surprise, and seemed TO think il was the

The Boston Post, in announcing the names OF the

The Boston Post in announcing the names OF the
members of the Cabinet, now constituted, says
I" NIessrs. Henshaw and Nelson are new members
Mr. Henshaw is well known to the public here as
of strict integrity, democratic political princ-
pes extensive information, and abilities or the
highest order: he is also, practical and business
man; regularly educated merchant, familiar with
all the great interests Of the active, industrious and
producing classes Of the community. We are con-
fdent that, while the democracy Of the nation will
feel much qualification at his selection, all parties
will acknowledge the appointment to be a judicious
one, and one calculated TO benefit the service to
which he will be attached. Mr.. Nelson is one Of
the most distinguished democrats in Maryland, and
equally eminent for hs accomplishments and abili-
ties; II will afford the country satisfaction to see
gentleman of his character and powers called into
the National Cabinet. These new appointments eX-
hibit a high minded bcrality and confidence Oh the
part of the President knowing as he does that both
Mr.. Henshaw and Mr. Nelson opposed his cleo
ton to the Office of Vice President and that both
declare themselves, unhesitatingy in favor of abiding
by the decision OF democratic national convention
in their support of candidate as his successor"
