gaze Of an insulted public. They are derogatory
every man connected with it. They strike blow
to its Just moral influence. They are outrages
of the moral sense Of the community, and cannot
fail to bring the press into disrepute. They are
an imputation upon the sense Of justice which
distinguishes the American people, and such can
harm only their author, and the cause they are
intended to aid
"Gov. Polk and his friends have nothing to fear
from such weapons. Much less has he, or they,
any thing to fear from such men as Featherston-
haugh, or the whole tribe of British lbellers Of
our country, its institutions, and its public men,
If its opponents can find any thing in his public
OF private life to carp at, out with it. He and his
friends challenge scrutiny into BOTH But as they
would have their assaults tell, let them adhere
strictly to the truth. When they bring witnesses
to the stand, let us know who they are, and let
them speak for Themselves. If the British sub
ject with the long name, and the proportionate
share Of bad odor which attaches to it, is to be
adduced, let him appear in propria persona, and
let his testimony 90 for what it is worth. Give US
the advantage of the fact that he is British by
birth; British in his associations, feelings habits
Of thinking, likes and dislikes; and British in his
attachment to the fortunes of Henry Clay. Don't
undertake to palm off upon us for Mr.. Feather
stonhaugh, of whom every body knows more than
he cares to know, your "Roorbacks' and straw
men that nobody can know Above all, don't put
into the mouth of British born subject harsher
libels on this country and Its public men, than
their natural antipathies have enabled them TO
invent
'But we have extended these remarks further
than we intended, and we take leave of the subject
in the hope that the EUening journal will be able
to wash his hands of this vile and disgraceful
forgery"
