THE PLAINEsT KIND OF TALK.

The Ohio Statesman, the Loco Foco state paper
at Columbus, handles Folks Veto on the River and
Harbor bill after fashion of which the following ex-
tracts will give some faint ideas:
''The Message in which the President supports
his views, shallow performance, vulgar in the Lam
guage ridiculous in its false logic, and palry as the
treatment of thesis by some har-spltting and wire
drawing schoolman of the middle ages, who thought
himself great man, because, like all small characters
he had mistaken cunning for wisdom. 1t is, howev-
er, quite worthy the man whose mbecility has been
| so unhappily displayed IN his action the Oregon
question-first utterng boasts of the loudest kind
and then sneaking oft cover when the enemy's bay
was family heard in the distance. There is re-
markable similarity in the Presidents conduct on
tSq and TO The whole
Oregon, like unto one of Nat Lees BedIamite heroes
for we only call it mouthing and raving, when
the Guthos of the treaty is known to us, however
much it pleased us at the time of its utterance, be-
cause We believed it to be the warm language of ear
nestness and sncerity-so has be now vetoed bill
substantially recommended by himself, through the
report of the Secretary of War, high officer of his
Cabinet tits true that the defence has been set up
for him. that the Secretary though reporting through
the President, really reports to Congress. Granted
but this does not in the slightest degree alter the
case. 1t has always been consdered-at least it
was in those days when it thought that some de-
gree oprofound craftsmanship was necessary in gov
ernng great nation-that Cabinet should support
one uniform policy. speaking the santimanfs nf tho
party whose principles it appointed to aid in car
rying out. Who ever heard of high Cabinet Off
Ger recommending to Congress, through the Presi-
dent, of action directly contrary to that of
the President himself, and actually accompanied
with the proper estimates as to the cost of carving
it out-who ever heard eff any thing of the kind, we
askbe:ore these days of deception and papabe fraud!
What President with decent portion of self respect
ever practised such small intrigue! 1t is new in tho
history Of country, and no doubt found its orr
gin and motive in the desire to deceive some members
Of Congress into the support of measures which the
Executive feared might not otherwise prove success
FULL AS the great ,cords about Oregon were follow
ed by the smallest possible actions, and were intend
ed only to gull honest men, was the course of the
President on the subject of improving harbors and
rivers favorable only with the design of gaining votes
for the new Tariff Bill the Administration not hay-
ing faith enough to believe that one righteous mea
sure could stand without practcing little deception
another. We most earnestly hope that the day
is not coming when erery true Democrat ,ciH hare
in bitter Of heart, to ask pardon Of God and man for
hacing aided in eleratingto po,cer ,nho mistake
treaehe'y for good conduct and paltry shifts for
great craftsmanship.

The UNWILLING BRIDEGRooM.-A young man had
engaged himself to aplaymate in early youth, but as
his mind developed, he perceived that he was mis-
mated, and wished to be release. from his engage
ment. The young lady would not consent, and
insisted upon being married. The young man APP
peared to yield, but when asked, as usual, ssWl you
take this woman to be your wife," he answered
"No.' At this unexpected answer the marriage
party broke up in confusion. The relatives of the
rejected bride resented the insult offered to their
family, and threatened prosecution. At last the
young lady proposed that they should go again to
church, and that the bridegroom should make the
usual answer, promising that when il came to her
turn she would say no, that the refusal might appear
to come from her. The bridegroom consented;-
but to his great surprise, the bride answered "yes;
the marriage ceremony concluded In FORM and he
found himself, against his will married man.
