that Horace never conceived OF such comb
nation, nor did pollician ever so degrade him
self as TO enter into such one. Pray SUI
tell as whether there is ruth In all this,
and authorize US 10 contradict II Tor The
benefit of Mr. Richie, and TO give him
good nights sleep" What does Mr.. Richie
think would be the answer? We leave HIM 10
guess For ourselves, we shall go upon no
such fools Grand. The President, we know Is
incapable of any thing base or dishonorab'e-
While the miserable politicians are holding
their midnight caueuses aud plotting Tor Their
own advantage, and resor,ing TO every possible
Eexpedent 10 deceive and mislead the People,
we verify believe his all-engrossing object
is 10 advance the good of the country, and
leave behind him a path Of light and oil
true glory. We do not ielieve that the
idea of coalition enters his head. Whose
time serviior has he agreed 10 become 2
We believe that he stands upon pedestal Ell
evaed above all combinaiions--all Coalitions
but we would no more think Of going TO him TO
obtain authority To- contradict report OF any
such coalition, than TO do any other thing equally
stupid and ridiculous.
We have heard "repor" that Mr.. Richie
would betray the South, by means oil an ar
rangement with "Norlhern mani" but we
will never be so discourleous, so suspicious, so
unjust, as to ask him % to come forward and
contradict it," But "we do say this" that the
- foul abuse the Wing presses have empted
from their ovelflowing urns" must sink into ln-
significance when compared with the mgrati-
tude, injustice, deep and deliberate wrongs, in
tiicled upon the President by the special organs
of Mr.. Van Buren,.
The injuries inflicted by the ultra Wing lead
ers have been avenged. The Presidents princi-
pies are now precisely what they were in 1910,
what they ever have been, and what they ever
will be-Republican. He has no doubt suffered
by the assaults of the Whigs-but have they
not suffered defeat for asssuIting him He
would desire TO be at peace with all men, of all
parties but yet, when attacked, he will not hes
assa any party-but it is incumbent on every
man-every Presideni--to redress wrongs in ev-
cry instance where it may be possible.
The managers Of the Van Buren, party-hs
accredited organs, who, by means Of their
despotic machinery, seek TO control the Demo
cratic parly-have sought 10 heap upon Mr. Ty-
Ter more "ignominy,n and have inflicted greater
injury-much more. and far greater-than the
impeuous Wing leaders. THEREAFTER were gov
erne1 by sudden ebullition of passion-the for
former deliberately and designeiiy wronged
him
But gross injustice is ever punished in the
end, The Van Buren, managing clique in their
zeal to exalt their peculiar favorte, forgot that
the friends of the President joined them in
electing their candidates (many of whom have
since been whipped in by the Globe,) more 10
avenge the President, than for the love they
bore their new associates. IL has not occurred
to them (and II will not, until it be too late J thai,
their new allies by using the means in their
reach TO rebuke the Presidents revllers, never,
any one of them, avowed the Intention Of voting
for the man they had repudiated in 1910. They
are doomed to know that it was not love for
Mr. Van Buren, which attracted the ''Tip and
Ty" boys into an attitude of hostility TO the
Wing candidates and they will ascertain that
Mr.. Van Buren, does not possess sufficient at
traction to keep them for himself.
These Jacobin despois have led consldera-
bic portion OF the Democratic party out Of sight
of the landmarks of '9s They are as far astray
perhaps farther-than the Wing leaders. They
caused the passage of the existing unjust and
unconstitutional tariff. They have caused the
reception Of Abolition petitions, praying for a
violation Of the Constitution, and dissolution
Of the Union. They have heaped contumely
on the President who saved the country iIom
the curse Of National Bank. Hence, we say,
these managers-these usurpiug despots-who
| strive TO control the action of what remains OF
the true Republican party, are as guilty Of heresy
as any set Of politicians in the Union. They
would destroy any party-any country-if no,
destroyed themselves. This clique is decayed
tooth in the head Of The party-it was plugged
10 ls4l-but it still aches, and rots. IL mus
be pulled out by the roots, even il it break the
jaw-bone Of the party And the time will come
when they will be denounced by the pariy-ant
those who have upheld them will share tn,
I""iu'h vi 'o'h uis5i"'S "h'e bi' hOhtst heh
who have been prosecuted by them, will bt
cherished by the People. When that day
comes, the Republican party will be permanently
in the ascendant.
We do no know but that the best and quick
est way 10 reform the Republican party-t'
which we shall ever belong-will be to secure
Mr.. Van Burrn's nomination. Any other De
mocrat could be elected but we doubt whethe
it would effect so much for the perpetuity Of tn,
Republican party.
