United States Supreme Courl-where he is above
and beyond the influences of parfy--he becomes
wing IN principle, and gives Wing decisions !,
q II should strike every candid Locooco with

pause in wonder when he reflects upon the lu-
dcfous fact that James X. Polk, who has for
years been fishing for the reputation of being con-
sidered Free Trade man, and who, last year, de-
nounccd the present tariff from one end of the
State of Tennessee to the other, and wrote out
and published those denunciatons, now, beng UNI
