by whom was it made BY men whom the people

by men repudated By the people And for what pur-

this, in this free country, where men are permitted
generally, to think and act for themselves, iohoui
dictation, Mr. Blair yields up his advocacy and yet
would pirate about COALITIONS, forsooth, between
the President and the democracy, if such men as
Henshaw, Nelson and Porter, the democratic stand

TYLER. We now say to Mr.. Blair, that he may here
after pursue what he peases, sustain Mr.. Van
Buren, If he can get him-if not MIR. Clay but that,
he need say nothing more of COALITIONS between the
President and the democrats for there is UNION
between them-aJl standing upon the broad basi, OF

Blair and others once assisted to pull down in the
election OF John Quincy Adams, the Abolitionist

THE GLOBE
The Washinuton (,lOhe has devotpd itself o1moct
exclusively, since the adjournment of the last Con.
gress, to assaults upon President Tyler and all who
have refused TO follow in its wake. The reason for
its constant attocks upon Mr. Tyler, is well
derstood throughout the nation. Amos Kendall an
swered, months ago, all the arguments of the Globe
against Mr.. Tyer's being permitted to go before the
Democratic National Convention. That answer was
summed up in few words, as follows: "If the De-
mocras of any State or District should send dele
gates the Convention in favor Of John Tyler who
exclude them and prevent their constituents from
being represented in that body' But if Mr.. Tyler
cannot obtain single district in the Union, as the
Globe has stated hundred times, how is his name
to be presented to the Convention an aspirant to
the Presidency" But the attacks of the Globe have
another meaning. They are understood to be aimed
at several Of the most prominent Democrats in the
nation. Its bitter coarse, and repeated assaults up
majority of the Democratic Senators last fall and
winter not forgotten; neither in MIR. Blar's for
mer agency in the coalition which made Mr.. Adams

duct during the past year has been condemned by
overw helming majority Of the Democratic papers in
the country, and it is well known that most of the
Democratic members of the last Congress expressed
openly their dsapprobation Of its suicidal course
1t has recently assailed, with all the venom with
which its editor is cursed, several Democratic states
and Democratic editors, and been rcbuked there
for by the press generally and by large Democratic
meetings and Conventions in the East; yet it CONT
nues its dsorganizing and hostile attacks, needless
alike of the wishes of the party, and Of its safety Its
insolence, prescription, and vrulence have disguised
most OF its former supporters, and the political nteg
rlty of Mr.. Blair has become more than doubtful in
public estimation. Whilst elections have been going
on in most Of the States in the Union, it has been
playing into the hands Of the enemy. Its impotence
however, has been shown by the of the party
in most States in spite of lis indirect opposition, and
in some instances open hostility. If it had been stop
ped at the time its conductors threatened to IFS
publication, the party would have been saved from
most Of the discord and -feeling prevailing in
reference to the Presidents nomination.
The Iowa Capitol Reporter says:
Why Democrats venerable for their age, well
for their integrity, should receive the excommun
cations of the Globe, utterly unable to con-
lecture. When and how the Globe acquired CEN
sorshp the party, have never discovered, and
have yet believe. 1t is at best feeble and petulen
refuse aid to enterprise, because its conduc
tors were elevated against our wishes and in this
light only refuse assistance to Mr.. 1ylers
Administration when legitimatey in our power If
its tendency is Federal let the ablest of party,
when in the Cabinet counteract its influence; if its
tendency is Democratic let friends share in the
merits Of its character That it is disgraceful for
any man to receive Office under any administration
when rendered him without solicitation cannot
conceive. 1t his duty TO render his services both
physical and mental upon the earliest requsition-
With the motive Of rendering office we have nothing
to do; and he who receives 1t must be accountable
for his official department when invested with its pa
tronage. To take pride in high Official station under
the Government is natural TO the race and if we re-
collect Alright the editors Of the Globe evinced no
anxious solicude to surrender their appointment as
printers to the Senate after its robes OF Democra-
cy had been thrown off, for fear of serving Federal
ism in disguise, but complained bitterly OF the loss
Of vested rights and broken conditions.
We rejoiced TO learn that the mass of the De
mocratic press refuse TO follow in the dictatoral
course of the Globe, and that few time-serving
presses only echo its notes. The New Hampshire
Patriot (Which has always been feeble, very feeble
imiaor Of the Globe follows in its lead, and says
when Hensbaw and Nelson joined Tyler's Cabinet
" they threw off the habmenis Of Democracy in a
party sense and become Tyler men" This state
ment is as void Of truth 1t is Of good feeling for
brother Democrat Of long and respected standing II
is worthy the serve imtaor of another but
dignifed with the independence becoming man
Mr. Henshaw goes into Office untrammeed by party
yirulence and his official course will prove that his
Democracy is as far above the suspicion of false
] friends as their clamor is beneath it.
