The Democratic press has given marked signs
OF preference for any candidate rather than Mt
Van Buren,, and the Globe suspects tina, the
President and his constitutional advisers are mol
in hurry 10 anticipate the action OF the con
with the Globe, perfectly inprepared, without
waiting for orders from Undertook or ST. Louis,
bawls out Justify that Mr.. Van Buren, is per
secuted man, aud that the Globe is forced TO
come TO the rescue and save lin from impend-
ing destruction Bah The State and Central
packed conventions, have been thrusiing MT.
Van Buren, before the country, TO the exclusion
of other candidates, and have, through various
presses, endeavored to hurry the meeting OF the
convention, that their perfect organization may
tell, having good reason 10 fear that if full time
is allowed for The People to canvass the merits
Of all The distinguished candidates OF The Demo
cratic party, the "sober second thought may
be like The thought which caused Mr.. Van Blu
ren's defeat.
The Globe says that Mr.. buchanan is emf
neniy qualified for the Chief Magistracy, and
that his State has "pecuiar claims" Has Mr..
Van Buren's State any peculiar claims But
Mr. Buren, fell in maintaining the principles
of the party He feH out Of office, that is true,
but Mr. Buchanan fell with him, SO far as an
allegiance Of principles was concerned, and
Pennsylvania was equally Frustrated with New
York.
VIII the Globe tell US uhen the peculiar
claims" of Pennsylvania are to be heard and al
lowed? She has never yet given President
to the Union, which we presume is one clam
in favor OF Mr.. Buchanan now but he must
give way to the 'peculiar claims" of the Globe
editor TO be Dictator and printer TO Cong ess.-
The editor is forced and why should not every
body else be forced? He, indeed, is to make a
fortune, and others are to be deprived of honors,
but the forcing principle carried out, is TO show
the value of the equality principle.
But we do not mean to be invidious; South
Carolina has not yet furnished President,
and is Mr. Calhoun's historic renown"
so pulled by the Globe, to go for nothing Has
not Kentucky "pecuiar claims" for the forty
wears public services" of Col Johnson? or are
the peculiar claims of that State to be credited
to Mr.. Clay on the Globes hooks, and the
to give the Globe the printing of Congress
And so of the other great names mentioned by
the Globe-why are they all so unceremoniousy
thrust aside? Is there one word OF truth in The
Globes having been forced2 Why do not all
the Buchanan, Cass, Johnson, Calhoun, and
Globe 2 They would, if it were the force Of
the popular will, and political and moral justice,
for there is not one of them less sensitive tc
such suasion Than is the Globe.
The Globe must invent some more plausible
defence for its audacity and It's dictatorial tone
1t must learn to speak the truth, the whole
truth, and nothing but the truth. 1t nut open
ly avow that il has bargained with the "hones
ultras,n ultra Democrats and ultra FederaIists
for the hal fof the Congressional printing ia am
creRi and that il means ID get the whole if il
can. 1t must confess that had John Tyler Ia
ken that distinguished Democrat" and his
tail, which the Globe says were TO conside,
what they would do; and had the Globe 5een
printer to the Departments, with the Congress
sional printing in reversion, we should never
have heard Of Mr.. Van Buren's being persecu.
| ted, or Of John Tyler being imbeciIe and
least Of all should we have heard the anathemas
of the Globe against such men Messrs. Mel
son and Henshaw for taking office under John
| Tyler, or against such presses the Boston
Post, as wearing their politics loosely, like n
robe made TO fit any body.
The Globe must give other and better reasons
for osuacising Democrats and Democratic
presses-other apologies for "ridng rough
.hoj" over the popular recussnrs to its pseudo
Democracy.
