Inc unparalleled treachery by whic
the Wings have been thwared In thei
iavorite public measures and whicI
hasso corruptly turned the whole DOW
er OF the Federal Executive Govern
ment TO the advantage Of Locofocoisn
IS SO paipable, SO gross, so wholly IN
disguised, that il is almost impossible,
TO come to any other conclusion. Johr
Tyler, chosen and confided in as {
Wing, and whose apparent sympathy
and friendship for Mr.. Clay were such
as to cause him TO shed tears for his
defeat at Harrisburg. is now a profess
ed democratic Presidcnt," pursuing
the Wing party with the bitterest hos
tllity, profusely scattering Office, and
emolument among the Democracy, -
and openly claiming "al@ogs to hare
been a Democrat" 1t is known to such
Iocofocos as stoop TO employ this charge
thai. the Wings had been in power but
ssngte month, when John Tyler came
into office, and commenced at once
the traltorous work Of alliance with
their opponents by which their plans
have been so signally defeated. It's
known that through this corrupt alfi-
ance between Tyler and the "Democ-
racy," it has been rendered impossible
for the Wings to fulfil the promises
with which they are now shamefully
taunted. 1t is known that a National
Bank: the great financial measure of
the Wings, through which they expec-
ted 10 contribute essentially to the re-
lief of the country, was defeated by
this newly made democratic Pres
ident." 1t is known that by a rapid
succession of Presidential Vetoes, all
of which were rapturously cheered
and applauded by the democracy"
the Wing plans and measures have
been thwarted, in spite Of their most
faithful efforts to the contrary. It is
known that the democracy" have de-
Tended, and sustained the exercise of
this zone man power against the will
of the Representatives ofthe people
that they have defended and applauded
John Tyler in all his traitorous con-
duct-and that he in turn has profuse-
ly best owed his patronage on the "de-
mocracy," to whom, through all the
accredited organs ofhis Administration
his allegiance has been openly and
boldly declared, yet, with these facts
so notorious and so fresh in their me-
mories, there are those who profess to
hold the Wings responsible for the
results Of this traitorous conduct; and
it is such that our contemporary aptly
says he regards as unscrupulously dis
honest.-Nast. Banner.
The Wings had a meeting at the
courthouse yesterday and appointed
delegates to the States convention.
Mr.. Prentiss made speech, said to
be full Of "honor and dignity" sand
sympathyi for the fundholders; but
fury against the antibonders,
Or regulators. He and the Wings |
will place the issue on the bold ground
Of assuming or repudia.ing the whole
debt of the State; and we are fully pre-
pared 10 meet the issue. We despise
The trembling;- cowardly, halfway
men.-Vicksburg Sentinel.
The New ORLEANS COLLECTOR.
The EMBEzzLED TREASURY NOTES.
The New Orleans Bulletin, of last
Monday, says:
"The Globe reports the collector oil
customs at tbs port defaulter to the
amount OF $50, 900. The report grows
3ut of the fact that 100000 in Treas
Try notes (cancelIed) were mailed some
line since TO the department at w ash
ngton, and did not arrive. About
IS, 900 ofthe notes, we learn, have been
.etaken here, the marks by which they
we're cancelled having been extracted
" some chemical process"
The Tropic, Of Monday, says that
IN agent of the Treasury Department,
charged with the business OF lnvestlga-
ing the circumstances ofthe embezzie-
nent of the notes, has been in New
Orleans for the last few days, busIly
in probing the matter to the
bottom, and tha, enough has transpired
% render it quite certain that the money
did not leave the city. The IropIc
adds: Il
.sThat a pretty extensive scheme OF
.ascality has been conscmated. It's
presumed that the secret rests between
he custom house and the postofhce.
and that the villainy was perPetrated
by some person or personsj familiar
with the mode of conducting business
n both of those establishments. Some
light will be shed on the affair." II may
De anticipated, in the course OF the next
few days" .----
