THE PRESIDENCY.

The nomination of james X. Polk for
dhe highest and most responsible, as well
as The most Honorable station, that man
ever occupied, furnishes a commentary
on Republican Governments, which if
sanctioned by the public voice, will 60 far,
very far to prove that the privileges we
enjoy, and which were purchased by. the
blood of the patriots of the revolution, are
esteemed as but irIfes, when contrasted
with objects Of party ascendency. slgai
We do not make these remarks with
a view to disparage Mr.. Polk, or 10 de-
tract from any just claims he may have
on the condolences OF the American peo-
pie; for asght that is known to the con-
trary by more than ninety mine hundreths
Of them, he may be the greatest and best

however is that neither can be true, as in

either case it is quite certain, the public
must have known much more Of his char

A CAsE.--Our Locofoco neighbors
are laboring hard TO draw once more on
the popularity of. Andrew Jackson to help
them out of the slough in which they are
submerged. by iDstiuting comparisons
and drawing parallels between the old
soldier and James K. Polk. Bnt It's no
60. Such drafts won't be honored.--
There is but one coincidence in their
character or history. Both TO be
sure have had their noses pulled, and both
therefore carry tweaked proboscis. In
this particular therefore, we admit there
is an exact resemblance, but with this
marked difference--that when Robert b.
Randolph pulled the nose ofthe old Hick-
org he made fight like man, but when
the Polk Hickory was put under the same
discipline he cut diit like dog. We are
therefore of opinion that with this marked
the simple coincidence in the
matter of noses, is not sufficient reason
why the people Of the U. States should
make Mr.. Polk President. But as this
seems to be the turning point, we offer
our opinion with due Difference TO the
Free Press and other kindred prints, not
doubling they will give US more light on
a subject so important. .-.-,

of having been "ths sticks used to break
