Bile very handsomely, SO far as he was con-
and assured the prompt and sensi-
tive Baron that he would forthwith see the
official editor, and have the matter properly
atoned for. The official editor was seem
and great was his lrepidalion! The scene isre-
presented to have been charming IN the live
lest degree! Excuses, explanations, and
spologies were manufactured faster than
coarse cottons, under the cheating mlnimums,
are spun at Lowell! After which an apollo
gy was concocted, and then hurrylng to and
Iro of the official editor, to show said apollo
gy tolhe President and Heads OF Department
in order 10 ascertain whether they would con-
sent 10 IFS publication, land whelherthey consti-
luted san units in regard to it, is described
to have been unique and inimitable.. Fl
nally, the consent of all consulted was OBJ
tanned, and the apology was published, as
follows:
"Last evenings Union contained a letter
from a London correspondent which made
some remarks upon the private habits of the
King of Prussia. They were not in good
taste; andthey are more Objectionable. be-
cause they are untrue. We feel ourselves
at full liberty TO give our opinions freely up
on the Institutions of Europe; but il is to be
regretted. that our foreign correspondent
should lave touched a topic Of this descrip-
tion-for which we understand>too there is
no foundation. We have it from the best au-
lhoriiy-from one who is we'll acquainted
with lheshabits of the King of Prussia-that
they are grossly misrepresented by the let
Ter in question. We must add, that this mis-
representation gives us the more regret, be-
cause. of the great respect and the kind feel
ings which we entertain, from a personal ac-
quaintance with him, ofthe able and accom-
plished minister, Baron Gerolt, who repre-
SCENTS the Court of Prussia at Washington. )"
This little circumstance shows ono of the
Inconvenience which must accrue 10 Mr..
Polk from having an acknowledged official
organ. If the editor for one moment ne
elects 10 exhibit to the Executive the arti-
Giles proposed for his paper. and h hereby hap
pen to admit any thing that does not suit the
Executive palate, why an apology is directed
10 be made at once! There is but one al
tentative for the AFFECT, dependent editor
dismissal WITHOUT PAY OR PENSION!
In view ofthis state ofthings, and the i'm
portant fact, for the first time in the history of
the Government, the Administration has
now established an avowed organ, may it not
Congress, who will hold the balance of pow
err, unquestionably, in both houses, on the
subject OF the printing, TO gravely take into
consideration the course which, under the
circumstances, they ought 10 pursue?
think | will have something TO say upon this
subject in a future letter.
Long agoI predicted the promotion of the
Hon. William j. Brown, ard more recently

summated.
Some ofthe keen-eyed Locofocos who are
dissatisfied and grumbling all the time at
what Mr.. Polk is doiag-and they are not
few in number by any ~means-openly de-
clare that Col. William Medill and The Hon
William J. Brown did not make their recent
pilgrimages to Ohio and Indiana for nothing J.!
At all events, they say, these gentlemen have
been rewarded, for something, very soon aE
ter their return, and therefore they. The afOre-
said Locofoco gfumblers, will see, after Con-
gress assemblies, how many votes the organ
will get in the delegations from Ohio and In
diana for public printer!
| observe that some of the Buchanan Lo-
cofoco papers in Pennsylvania are still depre-
eating and denouncing the movement, of the
Organ & Co, 20 getaMr. Buchanan out of
the Cabinet. Their efforts to keep Mr.. Bu-
chanan IN THE CABINET, Imagine, will be
vain !Judgeship orno Judgeship, that gentle
man will be obliged TO leave The Cabinet, if
what the organ iore-shHdows proves true, to
wit: that Mr.. Polk will in his forthcoming
message recommended Congress to break
down the Tgri1!
Did not Mr.. Buchanan go before the peo-
pie Of Pennsylvania, last year, and declared
that Mt. Polk was as much the lriendof their
peculiar interests, and as good a Tariff man,
as Mr.. Clay? The fact that he did this is
universally known. If, then, Mr.. Polk now
recommends the destruction of the Tariff.
how can Mr.. Buchanan remain in the Cabi-
net without sTULTIFYING himself, utterly and
totally! He cannot. Common sense for
bids the idea. No doubt Mr.. Polk would
be willing TO have Mr.. Buchanan remain
aye, glad 10 have him hold on, and thus de-
stroy himself and render utterly abortiqe
all his present claims to the Presidential
nomination in lS4S! Mr.. Polk would thus
get rid of one rival. No doubt the AMBIGUOUS
and keensighted Mr.. Walker would be
quite willing for Mr.. Buchanan to remain
where he is, for precisely the same reason!
the organ may in truth say that Mr.. Polk and
Mr. Walker do not wish to get rid of MIR. B.
No, no, Mr.. Buchanan will not, cannot. re-
main in the Cabinet, a friend 10 the tariff,
and a representative Of the Tariff people and
interests of Pennsylvania. while the Presi-
