N the grass Who is SO blind as not to see through
the whole OF this patry trickery? The "indepen-
lent Treasury system! A system conceived in ut
Ter ignorance OF the state Of the counry-its finan
cla nstitutlons-s spirit-ts enterprise-all the ele
nents indeed, on which Its prosperity depends This
new opposition to Mr. Polk may not be able to effect
anything on the question Of the Congressional print
ing, but we have no doubt they will attempt to sue
coed on the independent Treasury system and from
the very passage Of the resolution by the ban-burn
ing Convention at Albany, more and more
convinced of the existence of the deep-lad scheme
and cunningly devised conspiracy amongst the ultra
locoocos In this region to make war; at the first ia
vorabe opportunity, on the administration of Mr.
Polk and his Cabinet
These views are confirmed beyond the possibility
of doubt, in the mind of every intelligent and inde-
pendent man, by inspection of the proceedings at
the ward meetings, on last Monday evening The
impudence-the unheard-of insolence, utterly un-
known till now in party tactics, with which
two or three Of those groggenes issue their
DEGREES to the President of the United
States, calling on him to make removals to
suit them and their Interior designs of conspiracy and
opposition-to make appointments satisfactory to
their craving appettes, will not fall most assuredly,
in awakening feelings of indignation in the minds
of the President and his Cabinet The attempts OF
the ofice-beggng clique heer through it organs-the
Ne,cs-to talk Of our notorlety and reputation as
set-otf to these facts and movements, will only
impress still more forcibly upon the minds of all in
teigent men, the truth Of the views which we have
presented. The damning evidences of well con-
certed plot for the organization of all the elements of
opposition to Mr. Polk, stand out in still holder relief
in consequence of this patty and miserable effort to
divert public attention.
AS for ourselves, we care nothing whether the
present Collector be turned out not. Personally
it would be matter of not the slightest consequence
to if the President should think proper to change
his collectors every week. We have no more inte-
in this question of Mr.. Folks retention of the
present Collector of this port, than has any other in
dependent man. We receive none of his patronage,
neither do expect any from that or any other
quarter than the great masses of the American
people, and men of business in this country. But
all the abuse which the office-begging clique can
throw upon u.s. will not prevent us from endeavor-
ing to give correct view of the secret and public
movements, not only of their party, but of every
party, here and elsewhere Our journal is an indie
pendent journal. It belongs to no section, sect,
clique party. Our only desire is to give an aceu-
rate history of passing events. We SHALL therefore,
relative to the present and future movements Of the
office beggars Of New York, and draw therefrom
just Observation-Disclosures which Mr. Polk and
| his cabinet can deduce as easily and accurately as
we, or any other person.
