the defeat of New Orleans.
Wires OF lS45.--In an article copied from
the Boston Atlas in relation to Oregon, our
readers may see the close affinity between
the federalism of 1913 and the Whigery of
ls45. They arc very nearly akin. Who
after reading this expression Of Wing senti-
ments in the principal Wing paper Of Mas
sachusetts, will say they are not one and the
same.
~ Hon. DowTv UTTnR.-Letters received
Z from Columbus state, that the structures Of
our correspondent upon the course of Mr..
Utter, created quite sensation there. Some
pronounced it first rate--others viewed it as
an outrageous and unwarranted assault
We do not for q moment doubt the proprie-
ty Of IFS publication. Il was deserved, and
demanded. 1t will have good effect, as it
will learn any democrat that whatever may
have been his standing, that he must not tri-
ic with his principles, and that whenever he
dares to .forsake them, no matter what may
be his motives, his position will be defined,
and he will meet with merited condemnation.
If whenever public men deviated from the
true and consistent course, the same stand
had been taken in denouncing the error, our
party would now have been purged from ma
ny of its dead weights. II is necessary
: that this independence should exist some
where. The Statesman SUPPRESSED the
yeas and nays on that vote, desirous to hide
any dercliction from principle that would
help the bankers. Medary, we feel assured
would not have thus acted, nor would any
Democrat who desired to perform his duties
as public sentinel. But if the editor of
the Statesman dared, we Believe he would
dencunce every sound Democrat in the Le-
gislature. He can eulcgise time servers
and political trimmers, but his pen moves
lazly, when he has to defend manly inde-
pendence. He has no sympathy with any
course but one which would make the De-
mocratic party, on the currency question at
least, mere clamorers for power without more
than the color of principle.
8v FREE TURNPrKEs.--We publish below, an
Act to amend the Act regulating Free Turn
pike Roads" 1t has become a law. 1t was
introduced by our able Senator, Mr.. Ed
gerton. AS there are SO many of these
roads in cur section of the country, and
much dissatisfaction exists as to the loca-
ton of them, this Act gives the power to the
people of each, county to alter their own roads
without the necessity and uncertainty Of an
Z application to the Legislature. 1t must un-
doubtedly be generally satisfactory to the
people.
CALEB ]. McNULTx.-All sorts of possi-
bic Misrepresentation 6ll the whig papers
in relation TO McNulty's case and conduct.
Some have represented him as raving mad
others as fugitive from justice anxious to
escape trial. AL this as might have been
expected has proved false. We do not wish
to defend his violation of trust. His con.
duct was, to say the least, wanting in dis.
cretion. We are willing to see him forever
excluded from public life-but further than
this we are unwilling to 60. While thou
sands Of whg Bank knaves roll along in theil
splendid carrisges, rioting in luxurious living
taking the first place in the social circle as
the reward for the most shameless breaches
Of faith and public robbery; while this is so
to incarcorate McNulty in dungeon for in.
discree. disposal Of the public money, with.
out design of embezzlement would be a
species of unequal justice which public mo.
rails do NOT demand. Let the clamorers
of the Wing Press first cast from among
them the hordes Of genteel scoundrels which
their party contains, before they are SO very
anxious for III. punishment of McNulty.

sTArS PnlNriNe. We perceive by the Dayton
Empire that if the proprietors Of the Ohio Stat
Journal have not reduced the price Of the public
printing, they have at least reduced the wages 0
their porksnep. This is whig economy the
best commentary upon the consummate hypocrisy
Of Wing proiessions Of regard for the protection
Of home industry"
