statesman. We will not retalia'e on Mr. van
Buren, The outrageous calumnies heaped by 'he
Globe on MIR. Tyler. We have reason 10
know that The most esteemed friends oil inc
ex President utterly despse sud abhor the pro
nigate Globe, under lis present management
Nor Will we stab any man for gold, But II any
man assas US, we will grapple with him with
out hesitation, and without regard 10 conse-
quences.
We have determined TO expose the enormily
of the Globes sins, for the benefit Of PUBLIC
VIRTUE, it, ind ed, that commodity be not AREA
DIV extinct We know il would not dare to per
petrate such outrages in the open day, en- the
Chief Magistrate if lis EDITORS estimate of the
Intelligence and honesty Of the People was mol
graduated to the standard set up IN his own
breast, TO govern his own actions. But we WIN
not believe the Republican party Is composed oil
fools and rogues. Nor do we believe that The
term DEMOCRACY, in this country, is used only
as mask TO hide the steel OF tyranny. we
will still believe that all men are free and equal
We will still believe that Mr.. Tyler has not
been DISTINGUISHED by succeeding TO the Presi-
dental Chair. We will not believe that every
Democrat who becomes his friend is a ' rene
gade."
If il be principle Of our Democracy that all
men in this country are free and equal, then we
contend that the People have right TO nomi-
nate John Tyler for the Presidency, the objec-
tons and tdenuncialions without reserve" of
the Globe to the contrary Notwithstanding. Some
EIGHT THOUSAND free citizens (most-
ly Democrats) met in convention al New York,
| and nominated him. No other candidate has
blage The Convention, by resolution, agreed
| that his name should be submitted with others
to the grea, Republican Convention to assemble
| in 1874. Had they not a right to do this -? Is
| i, a crime in the President to be thus nomina-
ted? Was any Democratic principle outraged
in the proceeding? Then why should the
Globe still vilify the Presiden,2 1t wants the
printing, and we will prove that this is the para
mount object of its pursuit
| A candidate thus nominated, in accordance
with the principles and usages Of the Democra-
CIV, is made the special mark for the recreant and
| hhu pSiH 'uuo hohi'
naled-by Democrats spontaneous expression
of the sovereign People, in Thousands assem-
bled-he dastardly Globe not only denounces
the candidate nominated by the Democratic
People, in the exercise Of their inalienable right,
| but absolutely strives 10 exconmunlcate from
the Republican Church every honest Democrat
who extends TO the President the right hand OF
fellowship! Every patriotic Democrat who is
willing to serve his country, when called upon
| by the head of the Government, is denounced
by the Globe, "without reserve" as a "rene-
gade ~ And this is done thar the Globe may
get the printing mex, session
If the Globe had the printing nop, we ask
s,s~s.s.s sss .Ls'raSS,a.i .s sYsgI d.It Dlsl;
ment OF Democrats to office ? Mott must be
served hrsl--paid in advance-belore il will
permit any Democrat to accept office from Pre-
sident Tyler. Ii will not trust the party-it
fears the party will be corrupted" by the Ad-
mlnislra'lon, and may, in lime, forget or for
sake The honest and iacorruptibie Globe
We ask, If the Globe would be thus savage
on The renegade Democrats" If the printing
was already safe in lis grasp7 If the printing
were IN possession, and its private interests thus
tTsf made secure, we ask if that journal, if il
stu bad any regard for The permanent ascen-
dencY OF Democratic principles, would not. in
justice and gratitude to the great party which,
with lavish hand, has bestowed a princ.ly
fortune on IT, not only odpoc ate the restoration
to Office Of the five thousand Democrats thrust

erclse OF the retrbuve justice which restores
them, instead Of denouncing them without re-
serve" as renegades," because they are will
ling TO receive back the trust. reposed in them
by Jackson and Van Buren,, from the hands of
President Tyler, and are thankful TO the re-
storer1 Would 1t not seek, by all honorable
means in It's power, to manifest its gratitude 10
those who have enriched il, by striving TO effect
a recall of those honest and capabIen senu- |
nels who were cruelty banished from all honora-
Die places IN the Government, during the tempo
rary ascendency of the Federaists3 Womb !,
not, if it really desired to promote the interests Of
,ne Democratic party, seek, under generou,
Republican President, to rally its scattered
lorces-encourage the Responding and suffering
who were wounded and overlhrown in lsAo-
inspint those who were in despair-restore the
spoled-protect The weak-arm the defence
less-sound the charge, and lead on once moro
to vctory-we repeat if it really desired to pro-
mote the interests of the Democracy, would il
not strive to do thus, rather than raise the cry of
" renegddes" against all the Democrats who
hold office under the Government, and instead
OF denouncins an upright Republican Chief
Magistrate without rescrvc7"
The desire to obtain the printing, we main c
tain, is the true secret why the Globe wopld {
sacrifice forty thousand office-bolders Tbis :. I
