ANOTHER RESPONSE FROM DELPHos.

| The Siby, after sundSy groiesque eontor
tons, and Iamenlable struggles Of the spirit, has
uttered another inspiration. IL is The ecssacy
OF madness which, however, the credulous
vulgar are commanded to receive as the prompt
logs of The god.
The editor of the Globe is daily contracting

precincts bar few are now tolerated, and they
only for Ulysses privilese--to be last doomed.

| Many Democrats lived before the editor OF the
Clobe--some of his contemporaries antedaIe hi
Democracy, of whom many have rendered emf
nent services 10 the true faith, and have been,
therefore. not ungratefuliy rewarded. They
still live in the pleasant odor of their good
works-and fame, like a grateful exhaation,
surrounds their dwelling places. But long ser
vices, distinguished talents, irreproachab e cha
racler, unequalled consistency, nothing can
save the man whom the tales, through the WIZ
ard of The Globe, condemn. He is damned IN
this world, and must be miserable in the next.
The editor of The Globe is a St Peter, with the
additional moral force of eighteen centuries.
A few days ago, or less, the Hon. Isaac
Hill retired TO his home in the enjoyment OF cx-
cellent health, in the possession OF the esteem OF
his acquaintance, with peaceful disposition,
aud unsuspcious of impending evil. AT his

ensconced himself within the covering folds OF
capacious blankets. He slept, undsturbed.--
In the morning he awoke and found himself
damned
II is a had word, and worse truth.
The melancholy fate of the unfortunate vie
tim Of the Globes vengeance, suggests many
Elections, and is pregnant of meaning
KnoA ing some liiIe of the life of Mr.. Hill
the early germ of his talent, its fair PROMISE and
rich development, which has characterized hi
name, and given him sounding in mems
mouths--we cannot but wonder at the strange
fate which has overcome him. In the spring Of
our own life, we were told to respect and rev
erence Isaac Hill as the star of Democracy,
true TO the pole. And when Others faltered,
when Democracy was clouded in the South,
and unknown in the West, brightly over the
gloom shone The light from the Granite hill-.
II shone there northumberland, gradually en-
larging It's flame, revealed to the Democracy Of
the Union the unobstructed road TO Wash
ington.
The thunderbolt from the gods sanctifed
where il struck and, without calling into dis
pute the DEGREES of Fate, we can still pronounce
an eulogy upon one who was guilty only of the
unprovoktd displsasure Of celestial powers.
To one however of a more sceptica turn than
ourselves, il might be subject of inquisitive
research 10 d cover by what means the editor OF
the Globe obtained his irresistible power, or
upon what grounds he retains il. A purchased
renegade from the party and the men who
nursed him in his swaddling clolhe ,, his assump-
ton Of thu tiara displays TO many the moral sub
Unity Of impotence. Treason, rich Y remune-
rated, lords il over vulgar honesty; and the
very crimes that morally qualify us for the peni-
Tertiary, in politics are made the instruments of
successful ambition.
We are in a train to moraise, and wish we
had the time to pursue subject rich in promise
We trust, however, the editor Of the Globe will
restrain, I'LL "more convenient season." The
curiosity he must feel &c hear a continuation of
our remarks
