Ercerp,s from me Na,lisonian.

From the last No. of the Madisonian we take
several extracts, to advise readers of the daily
current of Mr.. John Jones' thoughts. One paper
is sample of the whole:
THE GLOBE IN 1871.
That Republican readers may that the Globe
the apoogst and supporter OF Mr. Clay in oil Of
fer brief editorial from that print, commenting with
little severity the conduct OF the Dictator We doubt
much after committing himself unreservcdy against
his "old friend and connoSion by marriage" in ls4l who
Their Mr. Blair could induce considerable portion Of the
Democracy to support him in lSii.
NOW WE UNDERSTAND HIM.
We have found out why the Globe charges with at
lacking Mr.. Van Burenbut Mr.. Kendall is blame for
not us.
Our readers remember that made from
Mr.. Kendas ESpositor few days ago. which stated that
the Globe paid 81 500 for printing personal vnd
cation of Major Barry, for which the Government had
right be charged than for the personal vndca-
tom of Mr.. Tyler that appeared in the Globe of lS4l,
which republishng gratis. Well, the money
paid during Mr. Van Burens administration and hence
the Globe says assail Mr. Van Buren, Ii the Globe had
pundered the Peops OF fory" thousand dollars under Gen
eral Jackson's administration, according to the rule
would be assning the old hero by merely mentioning
the fact recapiiuatng after had been promu
ged by Amos Kendall General Jackson's highly esteemed
bcgapher!
But who knows that Mr. Van Buren, knep that the Gov
being thus pundercd during his admnistru-
tionl We have since understood tha the Globe got the
money for printing the pamphlet the Sd March, lsil
the day before Mr.. Van Buren, evacuated the city.
1t is supposed by some what authority know not,
that Mr. Clay will issue Address abandoning,
posponing the Bank measure and otherwise seeking to
conciliatc the Democratic party. The only probable rea
for such suppositOn that discern is the fact
that the Globe has entirely ceased its hostility Mr. Clay,
has taken offence the refusal of the of De-
mocrac journals follow its lead in assailng the Admin
istration of President Tyler
THE GLOBES POSITION.
The Globe has substantially declared that it Mr. Tyler,
Col Johnson Mr. Calhoun, MIR. Buchanan, Gen. Cass
Presidency
would be equivalent a second overthrow of the Demo-
cratic party.
1t has said Mr. Tylers shall be admitted in the
convention.
1t has sud that any Democratic candidate shall
Mr. Tyers friends rally under his banner 1884, it will
aud should the Government fall the hands Of
ultra Federalism.
We believe that no Democratic press in the union has
yet endorsed the above position taken by the Globe II it
be approved by the presses generally, then the Globe
cannot be the accredited organ of the party.

very wide discrepancy exists between the Of
the Van Buren, and Calhoun Presses, touching the Demo
cratic sentiment Of this State. The Cohounitos have
been claiming very large part, il majority, Of the peo
pie and from Of their statements, they seemed JUS
tilted in prcferring the claim But late Portland paper

What rW the ncr Congress do1

We find a response to this question, in late
Enquirer, in an article copied, without comment,
from Connecticut Locofoco paper (the Norwich
Aurora). The Aurora cnumerates some five or six
high duties to be discharged First, the re-enact-
ment of the sub-Treasury: Second, the Repeal of
the Distribution act. 3. Repeal the bill dstrictng
the States. A. Modify the Tariff. The other du-
ties, we give in the AuroraS own words-as the
whole appear to be adopted by the organ of Loco
focoism in this city:
"Fifihy. They should tolerate gag laws We refer
not only TO the rule which limits speaker hour. how
ever important the question which he may be speaking
but To mat more odiOus rule which rejects all the
subject at slavery This is denying right
which belongs the humbest subject of Great Britain aud
other monaTchical governments II they may refuse petit
uons concerning slavery why also touching the curren
cy the bankrupt law, the tariff, why may they deny
the right altogether We no reason why they NAV
do the last well the first Congress may exercise
ts judgment in regard the proprey, cOnsttuonaiy
oil granting petition, but they liberty refuse
hear and consider it, We hope the next Congress will
strike out this from among their rules.
This subject grows upon hands but have already
exceeded the limits had prescribed. We could mention
much more that Congress ought do but pretty
tam they will not do IT, They ought abolish the frank
ing privilege reduce the salaries Of of their officers
take formal possession of tile Oregon Territory ABOLISH
Conmboi but do expect anything Of the kind, and

THE WINGS OF THE UNION.

We are glad TO have the opinion OF the N. " Courier and
Enquirer in confederation Of confidence in the present
strength and prospective of the Wing party Ii is
not possible that the candidate Of the Wing party for the
Presidency should succeed the ensuing Presidential
Election against any candidate whom the Locooco party
seup Our confidence in this result does
on any superstition OF dissenton among oponens
upon cacusonof division of their strength among
different, candidates We take it for granted that they will
find means TO all their forces upon candi-
date Ii is only the Wings that lose elections by throwing
away their votes Fortunately for the chance Of thei
there Is probability of their committing such
bunder IN the great contest which is to "come OFF, the
National Course next year. than there is Of their opponents
doing Both parties will bring all their strength; and
