REBUKE.

The Globe, the Bulingt SenfiatI, and
other radical papers, are fierce In their at
tacks upon ISAAC Hill. The former calls
HIM an " unpriacipled Migrate, while tho
latter denounces him as an "apostate and
traitor" who I" merits the contempt of every
true democrat" The Governor however
seems to appreciate the authors and motives
of these attacks, and in his last paper prefa-
ces an article from the Madsonian, on this
subject, with the following dignifed, but sig
nfcant remark:
IF some gentlemen editors living beyond
" the limits of this State-if, some who have
"grown up 10 be most robust and valiant
" democrats within the last seven or eight
years-if some who never came out demo-
" Gratis until others had fought and prostra-
"ted the encmy-had attended to their own
"concerns instead of debating to and con-
"demning their elders if not betters-ws
should have no occasion for copying arti-
cles like the following"
From the Madisonan.

But II is not in the power of the Globe nor prompt

in the dreams Of the most dreamy, Mr.. Hill was

But, what is probable? Is it probable that such =
man as Mr.. Hill, whose first love was the Republican

with constancy energy, and ZEAL that has never

Hampshire at this time; and it originated in this
