POLITICAL TRUTHS.

While all good men buoyed up in the midst OF
every difficulty by firm belief in the axiom which
declares that truth IS great and will prevail, many
dlsheartened by the temporary triumph Of error,
and the tedious process by truth becomes apparent,
and is recognised. Political truths particularly, are
long in becoming known because in politics, the
temporary interests of party frequently subsery-
ed by keeping out OF view those good and true prin-
ciples which should be the guide Of all who
take part in public life.
In this country, intelligent the masses
knowledged to be- the baleful influences of party
have long retarded the advancement of political
truth. These are times, however, when political

concealed them, and shine forth revealed in all their

THE WIIIGn GAME.

The most careless observer cannot fail TO perceive
the real drift and object of the rerenchment fever
which is now rag ng with such violence at Washing
ton. That the occasional symptoms of that disease
which have manifested themselves at intervals during
the session, originated in disposition TO curtail the
executive patronage, we have always supposed but
the recent swoop at the New York Custom Hou is
conclusive proof upon the subject Let recur 10 a
few facts When intelligence Of the cessation Of hos
till les and the establishment of commercial relations
between England and China reached this country il
was very properly deemed a favorable moment TO
send diplomatic agent TO the latter government in
order to promote American interests. The impor-
lance Of such mission could scare ly be questioned

the rest of the world and had vigorously exacted spc

In ordinary times this would have been speedily ac-
complished and a Minister, with rank and dienit,
suited to the notions of the oeestias would long since
have been vending his way towards the " central and

rcwardng some faithful adhcrent would have devolv

vented, at whatever cost The consequence is that
the majority have deferred the question nde he pre-
tence of determining whether consulship (Which is
comparatively an unimportant bertb) VIII not suffice.
But while we are thus quarreling about the shadow,
England and her compcers will be quietly helping
themselves to the substance Of the rich China trade.

JANUS WITH HIS DOUBLE FACE.

The Globe is endeavoring TO produce an inn
preston among the People that to the remiss-
ness of The Administration belongs the present
deranged condition Of the finances of The coun-
try. Knowing well, too, that the Executive and
his council are without sufficient strength in
either House to secure the passage of single
recommendation.
The policy of the Globe is doubly jesuilical,
inasmuch as in another breath it berates the
President for recommending TO Congress GER
tain measures 10 re-establish the general prospe-
rty by the restoration of confidence through a
sound regulation of the currency-as if it were
not within his constitutional pterogatlves to
even advise the Legislature on the subject
So, with the Globe-man as a judge, the Presi-
dent is placed in as perplexing predcamen as
King Henry the Eigh'h's subjects-if they de-
MED the infallibility of the Pope they were
hung--if they admitted j, they were burnt. II
the Executive advises Congress on subjects OF
finance, the Globe condemns hm-if he forbear,
the Globe denounces him.
