Read and comment for yourselves, Democrats.
Our cup of JOY is filled, and cannot wait for
sentiments.
We continue the triumphant vindication Of
the President made by the Globe in 1S4l:
II will be recollected that nnme diateIy after
the second Bark Veto, the Clay Cabinet with
drew from the Administration, and the Ma
tional hteHgencer opened lis batteries on MIR.
Tyler aud his friends, alleging that conspiracy
had been formed to break down Mr.. Clay.
From the volume before us, it appears that
the editor of the Globe most eiiectually repealed
the assaults Of the Intelligencer, and proved to
The satisfaction Of all honorable men thar the
President was an honest and consistent Repub-
lican statesman.
After recapilulating the statement Tin refer
ence TO the dissolution of the CabineO of the
Inteligencer, the Globe replies as follows:
Sand on this the National Intelligencer POUNDS
the charge that there has been a completing be-
tween the Locofocos and those of the Presidents
friends who have his ear to bring about the dssolu-
tion We should lille for this charge against the
Locefocos." Gas the Democrats called by the Ma
tional lntegencer,) il il were true. The Cabinet
ought to be broken up for the good of the country,
and zoe rouid not deprive our political friends Of the no.
nor Of amy share they may haze had in promoting the pub
lie ,oeyre.
Mr.. Boris, in his speech yesterday, read letter
to the House, which he had written TO the PREsI-
DENT some time before the first veto From Mr.
Borrs's relation with Mr.. CLAr-being his special
champion in Virginia, and in Congress-it may be fair
y inferred that so important letter touching the mea
sures Mr. &. had consummated was not written with
out consulting the originator. Mr.. CLAY, we have
no doubt, read and approved, and in all Likelihood,
suge esied that letter.
This letter explicitly tells Mr.. TYLER, not only
that his Cabinet will desert him, if he ventures to
veto the Bank first presented to him but goes on to
assure him that the Wing party would not furnish
him with another. With what face, then, can the
National lntclligencer put out the story that the
tirement Of the Cabinet was the consequence of q
Locofoco conspiracy with Mr.. TILER's personal in
timatesi .g
The result was announced in formal letter to the
PREsDrNr by one who spoke Of what the Cabinet
and Fedsral party would do, with all the authority
Of chiet manager in the caucuses, and of one Of
Mr. CLAY's lieutenants. He spoke what every Fed
ersl partisan OF Mr.. CLAY, who in the debate,
confirmed yesterday by renouncing all the political ties
~hieh associated hsn rith the President. The whole
Cabinet had not probably made up mind to take
the step, only four yesterday had resolved the
surrender.
Mr.. WEBSTER still sticks, to use his own similc,
"hke strong ia morass." Whether he will
allow his old Federal coniederates to deliver him
from 1t, is TO be seen. Ife may be uAng 10 cut their
connection"
We now come to the able and conclusive vim
dication Of the President against the charges Of
Messrs. Ewing &c. the retired Cabinet, which
was made by the editor Of the Globe:
F,om The Globe, Sept 10, 1871.
CABINET MANIFESTOES.
We lay before our readers the letters addressed to
the PRKsIpksr by Messrs. Critenden and Ewing
presented in the columns Of the National Intclli
gencer Of this morning. They are perfectly in cha
racter with their authors. Mr. Crittenden's letter
speaks the language and the spirit Of gentleman Of
elevation Of character. MIR Ewings is the outpour-
ing Of vulgar malignant, disappointed partisan
reckless Of the respect due TO the relations which
ISOLATED him with the President and the Govern
ment-reckless Of honor, truth, and dccency. Mr.
Ewing violates the seal OF confidence VIII ch through
all time, has kept invoatc the private Cabinet
ellis, which The Chief Magistrate holds with his Sc
oretaries. The very name Of SECRETARY is derived
from the fact that the heads Of the Government,
makes them the repositories Of his secret councils.
This sacred principle, which can alone mako the
consultations held in the Presidents Cabinet free
and unreserved, Mr.. Ewing has violated not only as
regards the Chief Magistrate himself but The other
Secretaries who part cpated IN these CONFIDENT de
Iii CREATIONS and this has been done from the most
objectionable motive-that of gratifying the malice
OF heart, exa,perated by defeated ambition and
avarce, and insensibe 10 the obligations Of graft
tude towards who had conferred on him the
highest favor. The President could no, bring hi.

tabi, sehee"-Mr Ewing not only feels it necessary
To quit the Cabinet but TO turn sort Of States evl-
denoe, TO favor the Bank party with Whatever fabri-
cation he deems best suited to bring in what he calls
"a piece OF furniture" but what IN truth would
prove like the wooden horse Tor which the walls of
Troy were broken down and introduce armed men
TO spbvert Government and nation.
More than month ago, when the President re.
stored the Democrats whom Mr.. EwNG turned out
Of the Land Office without authority, we predicted
