"Tbere Is nothing but despair and failure that they
the President and his friends bring with them
and shall the Democracy welcome such Eusslsi We
can tell those who seek TO their own or the
the fate OF the party with them, that 10y the attempt
their own fate is sealed The victorious Democra-
cy will make alliance with the discarded trcacbe
~ which Is driven from the ranks Of keir adversa-
RES. IL there be any Of the Democracy who hope
TO make advantakc by a union with such, we warn
them IN tine to beware This Administers alton goes
down in two years, aud will carry with il all its adj
heren,s. Any change must be for the BETTER
Globe.
There Is sample of DlcTArioS for you We
can tell the Globe that Democrats who hav.
connected their fate with President Tyler, hare
come 10 him nth letters Of recommendation
from GENERAL ANDREW JACKSON.
The last line in the Globes paragraph has a
deep meaning. The Globe will soon be per
suading its readers that Clay is better than
TYLER.

New YoRK, April IL, lsI3.
The London packet, the Switzerland, which vessel
had been missing for two months and upwards, put
into the harbor of Newport Rhode Island, yesterday
and, after landing her passengers, proceeded to this
port via the outside Of Long Island
The Switzerland supposed TO be lost, and her
arrival has given joy TO many families who had rea-
lives on board of her. understand that two OF
three Of her passengers residents of the District
of Columbia and Virginia and this fact induces me
to note more particularly her arrival.
The weather is very fine to-day, though the atmos-
pherc is somewhat cold and the Charte- Election is
going very swimmngIy and yet very quietly. The
subdivision Of the Husting places into almost immune
Iable places Of depot has had very saluary effect
and preserves the peace of the City.
There is a great deal said about the lar mode of
suffrage in the State of New York and it is alleged
that it abused and violated most scandalously aud
diabolically. Such may be the fact, but doubt il.
For the first time in my life, |, to-day, voted in New
York and, if the process encountered is submitted
to by all who participate in the benefits of the cleo
tive franchise, then i am prepared to say that the
New York mode Of suffrage is the most safe Of any
that ever encountered
On presenting myself with my ticket, was con-
ironted by some half dozen personages-Inspectors,
Judges, Chaengers, sc. &c.-who demanded my
name, my age, my place of residence, and succinct
account of my genealogy responded to all with
out suffering my temper to be ruflled, notwithstand
ing some Of the interrogaories were extra-judicia
For one, cannot perceive anything Objectionable
in the New York mode Of suffrage; though it must
be confessed that the insolence of the Wing pvpDays
who presided at the Husting place, when deposited
my vote for the Democratic candidates, was little,
and not very little, irritating
As TO the result of the election cannot form any
idea as TO that based facts but / have thus far
reason TO doubt that the Democratic ticket
will be successful
The Eastern mail Of to-day furnished nothing OF
any consequence. The Boston papers, in Extra,
give an account of an ARRAY that took place in that
city yesterday, which resulted in a personal assault
on the editor Of the Boston Evening Bulletin. That
individual, it is'sad, very seriously injured.
Yours, &c.

There is no law, are, the Madisonlan
truly asserts, to prevent Office holders from procu-
ring subscribers TO the MadisoDian but there is a
custom to deprive Office holders of their place. unless
they present the prima tocie evidence OF fidelity by
subscribing 70, and when circumstances will warrant,
advertising in, the Madisonian.-U S. Gazette
We deny that there is any such custom.
Our circular, which called forth The remarks OF
the Gazette, and which has been garbled and
misrepI e,ented by the press, was sent with
few exceptions, and there we've only few dozen
in ALL, to our personal friends, and the prominent
friends Of the Administration, moi in Office.
We deny that any Office holder was ever de-
prved of his place on The grounds alleged by
,he Gazette. The Gazette alludes 10 the state
men, in The published communication Of the
late Postmaster at Albany. The Department
was wholly ignorant of the fact iha, letter
had been sent him by The publisher Of the New
York Union. Therefore he was rot removed
because of his noncompliance with The pub
l.ber's request. The true cause of his re-
movsl will, perhaps, be given. 1t was for sniff
cieRt cause.
As TO shedding the President responsible, "
that is ''all CANNON" OF course bis enemi,s
intend 10 hold him responsible for every thing
displeasing TO them, whether he has any know -
Ledge of them or not.
The Gazette proceeds to say;
"The editor defends the practice Of levying taxes
upon the ofice-bolders to support the paper"
We emphaticaly deny having done any such
thing. Our remarks cannot be made 10 admit
any such construction. We merely said that il
we had friend who was an ofhce-huldcr, there
was, there could be nothing wrong, in his con
tributing to sustain our paper. II would be OPP
Iional with him, however, whether to do il or
net.
We said further:
And IL a friend, whether an ofce-bolder or not
anifests sincere interest in the Of pa
per- and should be successful in procuring sub
scribcrs, and sending the money, we are not con-
scious Of committing any violation OF the rules OF
prepriety, or law, IN n,snifestipg our gratitude by
any means IN our power. If he " al applicant for
office, IL is not treason in US 10 recommend him Il
he is in office 1t is not burglary in Us TO defend him,
for bs whole social system is made up Of reciprocal
obligations"
This we said, and we reiteraie il. We speak
simply as an editor spd fee American citizen.
We hold no office We form no portion of the
Government. If pe should do wrong, we alon,
are responsible for it, II we recommend friend
Tor office, or offend one in office who's unjus,iy
