and tendencies Of The Tribune, especially It's ten

aversion to Slavery and general fidelity to the
principles on which our Political Institutions are
pro!essedly based. 1t don't like our endeavors 70

Social repinings would not be eternaly efficient.
The verdancy would endure, 80 long as the Express
served for spectacles, bat the fragrance would ex

The Express summons to its aid Greene County
correspondent, whose letter, though obviously man
ufactured in the Express Office proves the partial
significance of It's date since is Uery green indeed
1t accuses us OF rank Agrarianism,' and eravely
argues through half column against that doctrine
without Offering a single word Of evidence that we
have ever advocated conference.-the All Its ar

The Tribune and prove the writer ninny or
knave The Express at any rate publishes them
with the full knowledge that they have no particle
of foundation in our writings. That paper is guilty
Of the extreme baseness Of bearing false witness
against its neghbor for no other purpose than to
fitch away some share Of that neighbors livelihood
This is kind of Agrarianism from which we hope
ever to be preserved.
The Editor ofthc Express comes 10 the aid OF his
convenient correspondent, but is able to Gull from
all our writings only the following paragraph to
sustain the charge of Agrarianlsm
"Thc more we reflect (sad the Tribune) the socia
history and condition of the Human Family the stronger
grows our conviction that there should be some hmu to

God has made for Oie sHsfendace OF the race.
This was said with reference to the land jobbng
of Texas whereby two or three individuals have be
come owners of tracts each larger than many State
Of the Union, without giving any value therefor
By virtue Of their grants, they enabled TO ap
propnate an area greater than That OF Kenlucky or
Ohio respectively a mere hunting ground if they
choose, and punish any man who shall venture to
settle thereon though all earth beside were occupied
and the settler unable TO earn elsewhere a meal to
ward off starvation. Is this polite Is it right
Has one generation right thus TO cede away from
postery the soil which nobody now wants or uses ?
Why should il do sol We have ever commended
in advocacy Of Mr.. Clay's Land Bill, that the pre-
sent mode of selling the Public Lands and consum-
ing their proceeds from year to year is gross rob
berry of future eeneratons--hat though the Lands
should be sold their Proceeds should be preserved
to our descendants as Mr. Clay's plan contempatcs.
Wemaintaincd this doctrine generally and with no
view to- temporary effect. We repeat what the
Express has quoted and add that the plan of giving
away the Soil nvast ractsto propreiors or PATRONS
aswas done with England by William the Conqueror
to his Barons and around Albany by the Dutch
Government to the Van Rcnsseaers for instance, is
avery bad one and iraught with fearful evil for the
generations TO follow We think this evil of un
limited concentration of Land, now clearly seen
ought to be provided against in future. But We
never proposed to take away from any man acre
Of land which he had good title. give il TO any
person whatever.
