In the Hid tcumberlandj District there is no
weu,wor,h on The Hnrbor Veto.

Hon John Wentworth NJ c. ia his Chicago
Democrat thus touches araw Of the dynasty which
he helped to fasten on the Country
INTERPRETATION OF THE VETo.-hIGny of the Rep
resentatives of the Free Labor OF this country upon
their return their constituents have put upon iresl-
dent Folks veto message construction which Is not
authorized by this report Of ls3 which the Washington
Union hns published MS embracing bis present views
and also unauthorized by the votes which he always
in Congress In voting upon the Tariff vice Presi,
dent Dallas took different Vice President OF
the Union from what he did as Pennsylvania Senator
From appearances We think the President mems 10
preserve n full consistency between his course lrcs
dent and as a Representative from Tennessee But IN
spite OF the remarks of the Washington UHon his votes
In Congress- his repor, OF ls and his last veto message
some OF the Representatives oil indignant constituents
Interested in Lake commerce have sborcd ingcnously
10 prove that Mr. Polk would sign bill Tor their own
immediate ueighborhood with pleasure, but could
not sign the works nj distance some very im
proper ones. On the Hudson, these men would say,
we would have supported the Hudson md Mr.. Polk
would have signed the hill, but he was opposed To the
lower rivers and so were We. On Ontario they tell
one story On Erie another. On Michigan another.
And ON the rivers another Tho talk Is always by them
that VIC would have supported our own works ana so
would Mr. Polk but there are some improper works IN
. the bill which neither lie could support What
these works it is very strange that no two OF them
can agree.
aThat the people will amy longer be humbuggcd by
these receptions cannot believe and so far cur
feeble efforts concerned they shall nobe II the poo
pie want Lake IInbors they eicct Only Norera
Northern rights b nil dare cofe for them, after they
hare eith an Erecure ueto
We beg leave to correct our Hon, contemporary.
HENRY CLAY is not Il Northern man, yet If he had
been chosen President the Harbor bill would have
been signed, and there would have been no MeNi.
can War us an excuse for Netoing it on the ground
that the Public Money all needed for throat
cutting purposes. Well YOU know it, John Any
good Wing in the Presidential Chair wonld have
signed the bill, but Illinois aud Michigan would
have a Polk, and they got him. Let them not
grumble at Southern policy, when the real evil is
Loco Foco policy. Ofihe ninety one votes in favor
Of the Harbor Veto, many were not Southern, but
nearly all were Loco Foco. We don't like yon,
section OF the South but let the truth be told nj
ways,
We have reason to believe that Wentworth
nsaAs what he says above il So, nothing shor,
ola Land Office will back him out OF it. But it is
remarkable that, up to the appearance of tue Har.
Dor Veto the South tthatis the peculiarly Southern,
strengthening party had not more obseQuious
set OF supporters than the Illinois Delegation,
Wentworth included after the Veto ditto Went
worth excluded, We hope for better things here
after.
