FIGHTING FOR THE SPoLs.-The philosophers Of
the Morning Ne,cs cannet breathe for two days in
succession, without utterins something very severe
and savage against the Custom House. The cause
of these frequent ebullitions is easily stated The
worthy patriots and pure-minded democrats who
started the News-who fed it-who scraped its
chin, and dressed it in the garb OF christian
very hungry, and want to fill their bellies with the
husks of the Custom House Hence, when they see
another set OF men, just good they are, living
comfortablyIwithin the regions OF these flesh pots
makes them prodigiously savage. 1t is notstrange-
perhaps, however, it is not strange-that one dog
should growl when he sees another dog gnawing a

Kentucky, and sentenced to fifteen years imprson-

viction, svowed himself an abolitionist. Csssus

tiers and documents, has probably given greater
impulse TO the movement for the abolition of sla-
very in that State than any other individual, and
we suppose they intend to make him the candidate
for the next Presidency. Such is the difference
petween the thing in practice and profession.

REMOVAL OF THE CAPITAL FROM ALBANY
Every two or three years the measles break out,
and affiict children to a very melancholy extent.
So il is with the removal of the capital of this
State from Albany. Every two or three years the
political measles break out in Syracuse, and the
surrounding country, probably, in consequence of
the state of the atmosphere, and the quantity Of
snow which may have fallen. The disease of re-
moval is raging considerably present; but, with
the help of pill or two, it won't last longer than
three or four weeks at the farthest.

LIES OF THE DAY.-The albany Epen,mg Journal
-one ofthe organs of the Father of Lies on earth
states that Mr.. Polk travelled between Cinci-
natti and Wheeling on the Sabbath day. This is
an unmltgated falsehood. Mr.. Polk arrived at
Wheeling on Saturday night, and remained there
until Monday morning This falsehood, however,
is only in character with the albany Evening
Journal, which, In point OF defamation, falsehood,
auocity and folly, is not exceeded by any party
print of the country.

Mr.. Kermit in great haste, and told him that

from Captain Britton, and he could get them for
consideration. He was promised twenty or
thirty dollars, and soon after again made his ap-
pearance with letters purporting to be from Captain

Fayal in distress. 1t is almost unnecessary say
that the whole story was fabrication. We re-
