FEDERAL ASSAULTS.

The ln,elgencer of this morning contains
some structures on the course Of the Admin !,
ration, wherein, we think, the editor has beer
betrayed in the heat Of the moment, when al
luding 10 the recent removal Of the Collector al
Boston, into the indulgence of harsh epithets
which we are sure he would condemn in Others
and must when his fiery heat subsidies, repent
himself
The heated and harsh denunciations of the
lntelligencer should not have been elected by
the change at Boston, and the numerous other
| important changes (here and elsewhere) which
1t anticipates will speedily take place In all
cases Democrats are appointed. This is merely
restoration, or rather the act of 'proscribine
prescription which was SO vehementIy pro.
missed by the Wings in 1910.
The Federal Cabinet, in 1871, made sew
eral thousand proscriplions-and all this they
were urgently solicited to do by the Inte-
gencer, merely because those in office were De-
mocrats, and those the Intellig encer Gin most
nstances) desired to see appointed were Fede
ralists.
Since the evacuation of the Clay Cabinet
matters have assumed another aspect and the
tables appear to be turned. The Clay presses
everywhere are denouncing the President as
g ORATOR" as wretch" far "more ignoble
than Arnold" merely for discharging conscien-
tious and constitutional duty, (Which constitutes
| the true Democrat and Mr.. Clay himself has
most obligingly allotted the Chief Magistrate,
and the friends and supporters of his Admins
| traiion, a position in the midst Of the ' Loco
Foco" ranks-a position which friohtens the
Globe. Even Mr. Webster, the intellectual
star OF the East, now private citizen, taking
no part or lot in the Government, is most fierce
| ly assaied in the Tribune, (and mandate has
gone forth for the assault to 60 the rounds OF the
Clay press, which we think the Intelligencer
will not obey,) merely for expressing his sincere
conviction that Bank was an ''obsolete idea"
Such being the case, according TO the Intelli-
gencer's rule, 10 1S41, the President only dis
charges consistent duty in restoring the offices
so greedy seized upon by the Federalisis for
The Administration is and is TO be Democratic
Zone and indivisible" with the Democratic
party, as Messrs. Clay and Blair say
But, as we were opposed in principle to the
lndiscrlmnate and whole ale butchery Of Messrs.
Granger, Ewing & Co., so we should regret ex-
ceedIngly 10 see the same number of their par
tisans decapitated now by way of retaliation,
simply on political grounds. And we are quite
sure 1t will not be done. We know that many
of those appointed by The Clay Cabinet have
refused to Willy the President, approved his
vetoes and become good Democrats-and if
changes should extend in some degree among
the necessity Of making restoration to those
who first suffered, and not 10 consequence Of
the political or other offences Of those last re-
moved.

THE PRESIDENT

For the particular edihcation of those indivi-
duals and presses, which are so boisternus 10
their denunciations Of President Tyler, and
those Democrats who accept Office under him,
we extract from a letter written by Gen. Jack
son, to committee Of the Tennessee Legisla
ture 10 answer to note inviting him to attend
a meeting Of the Democratic members, the fol-
lowing paragraph. The letter was written i'm
medlately after the vetoing of the Bank bills
=" ] congratulate you, gentlemen, as | do our coun-
try at large on having at the head of the Govern
ment President who, upon question at least has
strict and conscientious regard for the Constitution
and, gentlemen | may
add that in The ability and determination Of The res-
dent 10 maintain the Government on principles prel JEFF
ferSoTtan, HAVE THE MOST ABIDING CONFIDENCE"
Several other eminent Democrats have also
spoken highly Of the President Among the
number, Messrs. Benton, Buchanan, and Van
Buren,. Every true Democrat in the Union
threw up his hat on receiving the news of John
Tyler's vetoes. The grand distinguishing cha.
racterislic Of General Jackson's administration
was his veto Of the United States Bank bill
The repetition Of the same act, by John Tyler.

characteristic Of his administration

WORMS! WORNlS!!

III If parents knew the value and efficacy
of DR.. Leidy's Petrnt Vegetable Worm Tea,
they never would be without it in their families,
as children are subject at all times to Worms.
Dr. Ledy's Worm Tea is composed Of veg
eiabes altogether, and may be given 10 chill
dren of all ages. Directions accompany each

Children suffer much, of times, from so many
things being given them for worms, without any
effect. Much medicine, given 10 children, has
a tendency TO destroy their general health, and
they more or less delicate ever after.
TO avoid the necessity of giving medicine
unnecessarily when you are certain your chill
dren have worms give them al frs. DR.. Leidy's
Worm Tea Il is all that is necessary.
Reference might be made 10 several hundred
parents in Philadelphia city and county, of the
efficacy OF DIR Ledy's Worm Tea. Try it and
you will be convinced.

The Grave Robbery at New-Orleans

The young man Connah, or Connor, whose
theft oil Jewels from grave we meulioned some
line since. pleaded guilty TO The charge on the
l7Ih. But difficult, question has arisen con-
cerning The measure OF punishment, or indeed,
whether the law has provided any punishment
at all for the offence. Ii appears that the heir
of Madame Teruan, with whose corpse the
Jewels were buried, sold The land in which The
tomb was constructed some years ago, and that
the person TO whom he sold il is now dead
Now the question is, who has been wronged
by the robbery of the jewels? Not Madame
Ternan, surely, for she is dead, no; her heir,
for he sold the tomb and its contents. Had the
Stale properly inleres, in the jewels! And
if il had not, could II prosecute for The robbery!
The whole question was 10 be argued before the
Court, on the motion 10 pass sentence.
