TONE OF THE CLAY ORGANS.

We know that thousands of the victorious Rcpub-
lcans of S40-under the supposition that the obnox
ous leaders Of the Van Buren, party in acquiesing in
the nomination Of Col Polk and by continuing their
hostility to the Democrats who in the last PresideE-
tia contest preferred Zip and Ty" to Mr. V. B.
have been induced to believe that they would be
pardoned for supporting the President since the Bank
vetoes, provided they would contribute their aid to
elect Mr.. Clay in 1874. We know that many of the
sincere friends of MIR. Tyler even thought that Mr.
Clay's friends would bury the Ratchet against the
Administration but never credited for an instant
either halluciDaton, because we too well aware
of the vindictiveness Of Mr.. Clays leaders. The
Bottses Changers, Ewings, Garrett Davises, Hunt
ingdons, &C., &C.. who would have full sway in the
event Of MIR. Clay's election would pass by dozen
ultra Globe men TO cruelty one Wing who accepted
retained office under Mr.. Tyler, after the vetoes,
who dared to hssi,afe, when the Dictator con-
manded the Wing party TO crush the political and
moral character of the President because he would
prove faithless to his country and reckless of his
oath. Every Wing who did not throw up his cap for
Clay as far back as Is4l-it matters not what he
has done since that time, what he may do hcreaf
ter-is doomed and will be destroyed, provided Mr..
Clay shall be elected.
Already Mr.. Clay's organs re exulting in the
confident belief that he will be elected. They say
he is good as elected now, and they making
out their lists of the Presidents friends, who to
be led to execution the first victims. Just sixty
days will be required to turn the tide against these
presumptuous and audacious mnions. A united and
determined effort will hurl the most dangerous
man in America further from the Presidency than
any of his previous defeats cas-, him
But our object was merely TO introduce specimen
Of the outpouriogs of Mr.. Clay's organs.
From the .Ns,o .Nork Courier and Enquirer.
Another very important measure of the session is
the rejection of the Treaty of Annexation. We re-
joice IN this, because
1t placed the seal Of national condemnation on one Of
the most nefarious schemes Of national robbery
| concocted by unpribcipled men, We do not give 10
John Iyir all the infamous credit Of its Inception
Much of this We believe, belongs TO the qut of
sp'raiors against the integrity of this Union.
Blu, so far as it was Mr. Tyler's scheme to the full
extent OF his agency in it, believe that he
perfectly free from the slightest shadow the ian,est
notion, Of honest and patriotic feeling, as il is
possible far a man to be. II has been said that in
epery thing evil there Is soul OF goodn-but this IS
the maxim of a poet and in poetry IT could
| scarcely be said. Of cell Itself. At all events the
! course OF Mr.. Tyler, in negotiating this treaty
proves that the remark has neither force truth,
in the prose OF a common life. So far as he has
been connected with IT, Mr.. Tyler has sought TO
force this treaty upon the nation, by fraud and false
hood
We cast back in the teeth of this pronigate and I'M
prnciped prnt-and all its kindred prints the
" fraud and fasehood." by their fraud and false
hood" one Of the most important, measures to the
country has been defeated. And the day will come
when every an who participated in rudely thrust
ing Texas away from the door Of the Union will be
marked with a stigma far moro indelible than
the odous brand affixed to the blue-ght Hart
ford Convention Fcderalists. 1t will then be seen,
when too late, that all the Presidents representa-
tons were true.
| The Annexation Of Texas a wise and beneh-
cent measure, and originated and prose cuted by
the President for the benefit Of the whole Union
Mr.. Tyler does not and never did, as President Of
the Union, indulge any preferences or prejudces
among the States. lie would be the last TO sanction
unjustifable injury TO the South and he would be
the first to put down, at any self-sacri6cc and re-
CARELESS Of consequences, any attempt against the
integrity OF this Union.n
