OFFICE SEEKING.
No one thing, always saving and ex-
cepting the memorable doings Of the ks
Ira session Of 164l did moro TO open the
eyes oi the people 10 the true character
and foundation Of the administration OF
'TippecunOe and Tyler too than The rush
Of TUVenous, clamorous and unworthy Of
fCe-seekers atWashiDgtOn, in The months
Of January and February, and in the first
days Of March, l54l. They gathered in
swarms from oil sections Of the land -
EaCa enc claimed some Office as a
reward for party service. Each one de-
manded the fulfilment Of q promise, made
10 him Ly some leading federal politician
IN behalf Of 'TiPpecanoe and Tyler too.
Never was the government so dsgraced
Al Washington as then. The herd oI
hungry beggsTs crammed ihe hotels and
filed the private boarding houses, and
then, SO numerous we're fIley, some had
to lake refuge in out, houses iO' places ol
rest during ihe night. Such a sci Of in
fdescribably mean wtetches never before
infested even Washington, but they found
in ihe leading and influential spirits oI
'Tippecanoe and Tyler too arty fitting
and worthy patrons. Office was moi be-
slowed with view TO secure honest COM
psienl and faithful incumbents, but with
view to appease The mOsl clamor, The
great object seemed TO be 10 get rid Of
the Eruption OF the wolf.ish, suarling
pick, that was boisterousIy demanding
Office, patronage and rap.
For the honor oflhe democratic party,
for the credit Of the country aud the we'll
being Of her government and OuI demo-
cratic institutions, let 10 suCh discreda.
BILE, no such debasing, no such infamous
exhibition mark the coming in OF Mr..
Polk's administration. No true democrat
will have part in il. No man possess.
ing proper degree Of salfrespec( and
pride Of personal feoling.wili submit 10
the cringiig aud llckspittling Of personal
solicitation for office among crowd Of
greedy applicants.
The democratic press owe to The pee. !.
pie the imperious duty Of speaking prompi
tly and decidedly upon this subject. Let
il from One end oFihe land to The other
ltown upon The oifice,huuting pilgrimage
10 Washington. Il is in The power Of
the press to correct the evil IN great
Imefsure. 4
We believe that Mr. Polk will fear
lsssIy act upon the rule, lhu lhe man
whospersonaliy besets him for an Office is
little worthy Of il. We believe he will
firmly dscounienance the The habit OF
flocking 10 Washington ror Office. If
