THE sNEAKsn AND THE FEDERALs

Tho Sneak party" represented by the Globe,
and the Hartford Federals by the Intellgencer are
speaking through their respective organs this morn
ing, long and loudly, on the subject Of Texas
One word for the British-bought Intellgen-
Ger. The editors of that paper knee, when they
penned their paragraphs, they were utteribg UNI
truths and misrepresenting the President They
wished to give false coorng to the subject, and
have made the effort 10 produce an impression unfa-
vorable to the Treaty. alhougho on THIS very day they
expected to publish the Treaty and Correspondence,
and this they will attempt to justify on the pretencc
that they haze been told SO.
We charge them directly with a wilful ard
deliberate intention to perver the facts They are
Printers to the Senate and koo that hat they have
stated is not true. II our language is harsh, the
country must pardon it, 1t is more than Jobs pa
thence could bear, this continual ,rii misre presen-
tation on the part Of Tories and "Sneaks, of every
thing connected with the Administration
The Globe has made sumerset No. 3 within
the last week. That cruel ~aistice Yesterday we
did suppose that the Sneak party had taken position
Of rest for at least week We had il announced
on the faith Of a letter received from man on
whose veracity the editor relied, "-(snguar man to
bs 90 blessed THAT there was no arn,aiee. Ben.
tons grand discovery had turned out to be a humbug
and he didn't enjoy proprietorship Of single acre OF
the Texas territory. He (the edi,or) declared that
he had resumed his first position in favor of mm,di
ale snSsraon and that he intended to maintain !,
Horrible TO relate, the Sncaks are again t sea with
out ruddcr or compass. Another gentleman. " or
whose veracity the editor relies" still more ,rongl,
than on the first mentioned and highly complimente,
Individual, has informed Bar that the armistice do,
srisi But the funniest idea connected with the mat
ter Is, that Biar gravely advises that Congress 6yhwD
pass resolutions 10 solve his doubts Now we really him,
that this is modest and reasonable expectation
The public Printer has not the time to read ~.
Treaty correspondence, and Congress ought to ,,.s
the editor with few weeks careful deliberations a,
this subject The public Printer will have ,oor,
printing to do, and more money to make, and 4, f. :
OF the Sneaks 1--WE believe there are some 6ftec, n
twenty oil 'he") viii have an opportunity of astoni,b
ing themselves and the country by making ,,,hIi
speeches.
Like Hamlet to the ghost, we say to the editor y
He Globe, crest, rest, pcuurbed piyit rc,,.n ",
may kick and scratch, and fight and r,,,,
but the thing IS up Nth you. Let some nusic,i =.
Mus compose requiem for the Globe to ,b.
ofthc "Light Of Other Days.
The Globe concern is waned and faded
And Biar and Rives are dead
Dark angry clouds, with gloom, hath al dad
Their hopes, forever fed
Tha, star" the Globe would faiu bav, a.,
Shines forth with purer rays.
But Blair and Rves, in sorrow sbroud,d
Bewai these Texas days
The Printing tina, elections lose.
The profits then that ay,
Wont eo~s-for SO the People Oh, Sc
Again their tears to dry.
Fen We who ne'er enjoyed the Printing
Though poor high hopes displ.y.p
Bu, Biar Riyes zee no r.pevios
Ia this sad Texas day
