| SMALL MATTERS.-We notice that the
trends of Mr.. Calhoun, at the South and the
| North. are using little art to bring his name
fully before the people, and evidently seeking to
make an impression, by the whole force OF his
great name. They are not content with talking
Of Mr.. Calhoun, the Hon. Mr.. Calhoun, or OF
John c. Calhoun, but they use all occasions to
set forth, in staring capitals, the whole OF
his appellations-JOHN CALDWELL CAL
HOUN
This is bad taste and what is worse in poll
candidate. George Washington had no middle
name to injure him, and his greatness seems to
have Topped off the given name.
John Adams was troubled with no middle
name, and Thomas Jefferson had only two names
with which 10 ascend tho Presidential chair,
while Charles Coiestcerth Pinckney was unable
to contend against fate.
James Madison came sweeping in the first
term, with his simple name against Mr.. U. u
Pinckney, but the war endangered him in the
second tern and il may be that the Gborttre at
tempt at doublet in De Wit Clinton saved the
Vrginian.
James Monroe had little or no opposition to
his two names, through the friends of William
II. Crawford.
In the next administration, the three-numed
man, John Quincy Adams succeeded, though
the two-name candidate, Andrew Jackson, had
more of the popular votes than he. HIS virtue,
his unequalled attachments, and his entire fit
ness for the place, could not conquer fate, and
SO he had to yield his place TO two names-An-
drew Jackson.
Andrew jackson held his Office two terms by
virtue of his name, and then the contest was be-
tween Martin Van Buren, and William H. Harrl-
son, and the two names beat again. But mark
the fact. There was an attempt at doubiet IN
Mr. Van Buren's name, and it was fatal. lie
lost his election, and what was worse, he lost it
10 a three-na med lnan-William Henry Harri-
son.
But the three names was still destined to be
fatal to the party and the good President,
whom all respected, was called away after one
single months administration, AMI a two-named
man, John Tyler, the child of luck, was to be
President for the remainder of the four years.
The next election is likely to bring into the
field John Tyler, Martin Yam Buren,, John
Caldwell Calhoun, and Richard VI. Johnson, on
one sido and Henry Clay on the other.
Mr.. Clay will have majority, luck and prln-
ciple on his side.
We would not have our friends with three
names despair These do very well for Wee
Presidents, Secretaries and Governors, But
parents, we imagine, will hereafter beware how
they leopard the chance of their offspring for
the Presidential chair by giving them middle
name.-United States Gazette.

HENRY. CLAY.

Truth, soul and justice are embodied in the
following beautiful remarks from the Hartford
Courant -" If humanity presents noble and
sublime spectacle, it is when pure and lofty
patriot, regardless of self, and devoted to the

umny and reproach, pursues the path of duty,
and patiently awaits the approval which time

traction than his mighty genius, and his lofty

TILE CABINET.

We see it stated that David Henshaw
is likely to supply the place of the Mr..
Legare, in the Cabinet. Mr. Legare was
all accomplished lawyer, and hence &C =.
quilted himself well in his place Of Attor-
ney General. Mr. Henshsw was an whole
sale druggist, a man of strong natural
powers, mind improved by late reading, of
great decision ofcharacter, Democrat of
the s;raie htest sect, who was Guarrelled
out of the ranks of Mr.. Van Buren,. Mr..
H. might be selected for any Of the other
Departments but tina, of the State; and at
one time it was confidently asserted that
he would succeed Amos Kendall, as Post
master General. 1t is now of not much
consequence who comes or who goes; the
worst can do little more mischief than
has already been secured to the people,
and the best will be rendered powerless
for good by the influence of distrustn the
people, and corruption in the rulers

rOur correspondent "Socius" asked
the Democrat to be good enough to give
the first name Of tina, Mr.. Mccullough
who figured in "that'' great meeting on
the 2hd ult. The Democrats answer is
rather curious one. He does not know
who that Mr. Mccullough was, vet he
knows he is as respectable and as homes,
as Mr. Il. Mccullough, Not knowing
anything about the Rlan, it appears rsth-
er strange how he can youch for has res
pec,ability,
The Democrat is mistaken in his asser-
ton that Mr.. J.T. Mccullough is ''scarce
ly known three miles from town" He
is extensively known in various parts OF
the county as q gentleman Of the highes,
responsibility and "Socius'' was right in
stepping forth in his absence, and shield
ing him from the odium that might have
rested on him, had he been supposed to
have participated in that meeting.
We confess, we would like 10 know
who that MIR. Mccullough is, and we
think it due to the gentlemen of tha. name
residing in the county, tina, his name
should be given to the pnblic. We want
every man to have his due; if he is not in
favor Of reputation he may be both res
pectable and honest, but if he is repudi
ator, he is neither. No man, who holds
the principles of regulators, we care not
what his standing may have been, is res
pectable or honest. In our opinion they

action; If opportunity offers they will las

LocoFucoIsM AMONG THE LAWYERS

LocoFucoIsM AMONG THE LAWYERS
A Mr.. Treadwell has been admitted to the
practice of law in the State of Maine.
Mr. T. did not GO through the odious pre-
llminaries ofstudy and examination which
have heretofore preceded admission TO
practice in the court. He is by far too
original in all his modes for that. He took
the broad ground Of reason and common
sense, that, in this country, all monopolies
ere unconstitutional, and that, among
these unconstitutional, things, is the
monopoly Of the bar He thinks that
every man should not only be his own
lawyer, but enjoy the Heaven derived
right superior to all mere human customs,
10 play the lawyer for everybody else.
1t was on these grounds that Mr.. Tread
well is admitted to practice in the courts
Of Maine.
Now, this is what we relish hugely
Locofocosm is certainly the most origi-
nal and sagacous thing that ever stood on
legs, looked heaven wards, or blowed its
sweet nose when afflicted with dreadful
bad cold, There is no telling what great
reforms it would not achieve, if the ras>
cal!y Wings would please to let it flourish.
In short time it would do away with all
sorts of monopolies. No State would
have an elected Legislature, or judges, or
Governors, for every man would be legis-
letor, judge, and Governor. No man
would be permitted to monopolize too
much sense, and no woman would be suf
feed to look uncommonly charming
Every man would kiss everybody's wife,
and call everybody's children his own.
There would be no monopoly in preach
ing. Clergymen of all kinds would be-
come laymsn, and laymen of all kinds
would become preachers. No one would
be suffered to monopolize the enjoyments
