ward thatthe opposition party have found
it difficult to invent pretext for censuring
it. They assert that it proposes to reduce
the American Tariff" crush American
manufactures and industry"--to conciliate
England and thereby obtain compromise
on the Oregon question favorable to this
government. The fact Of reduction Of
the Tariff having been principal meas
ure of the Democratic party in the last con.
test, exposes the utter falsity Of this charge.
Every one knows that in many portions of
the Union, the Tariff question engrossed
more attention than any other. While the
democratic party advocated the mainte-
nance Of our rights to Oregon, they also
declared against the protective system, and
decreed the downfall of monopoly. Such
was the decision of majority of the peo-
pie, and now whilst carrying out their Ex-
PRESSED WILL, the administration is charged
with corruption, and with yielding to Brit
ish demands. Ifthere is treason, then, it
is not confined to the President and his cab

voters are guilty of the crime According
