34 charged against him. The truth ot thls, the Intelligencer has not ventured to deny
 It is too plain to be disputed. The lntelll- gencer, in its first article, alleged that Mir Van Buren's administration s'expended during it's continuance S3l,310,0 ,0l4 20--or S7,827,- 503 5 annually-over and above the ordlha- ry revenue of the country.' We have proved this assertion an utter labricaton.-
 Over thirteen millions disappear at once, on making correct additions and subtractlons. But there is a further blunder (if nothing worse) in this very docpment Mir Ewing, in giving his statement of payments applied 10 the extnctions of the national debt from 1916 to 1886 inclusive, states the sum oi $208, 792, l27 44, and refers to table No. l, appended from the registers office, as the authority for it. By reference 10 that table il will be seen that 1t does not sustain the sta emeAt. Under the head of ''eXpendi- lures" in that table, there is a column were this sum is found headed DEBT AND IN TERESF, EXCLUSIVE OF PAYMENTS ARISING FROM LOANS AND TREASU- RY N0TES.7 How much had been paid during that period on account of "loaus and
 treasury notes,n was concealed from the pub lie in the attempt 10 roll up mass with which to crush Mr. Van Buren. To give, 1t would not answer the purpose of his assail- ants. Here we have d second blunder in this Whig '.neW book, the extent of which can only be known by asceraining the amount paid out ill twenty-one years on account ot ..Ioans and treasury notes'' We should be glad to be furnished with this intormation.-- 1t appears. by the public accounts, that even last year there was paid, on account of old loans and treasury notes, q very consldera- ble sum of money. From 1916 to 1857 the amount must bave been very large. The ln- teligencer does otdeny that our table proves conemsiveiy that under Mir. Van Buren our public expenses were rapidly decreased.- We showed that he reduced them from over thirty-seven to about twenty-eight millions a reduction of over nine millions; and that he left uuexpcnded, to be carried 10 the sur plus fund, about seven millions. We fur ther showed that Congress appropriated over Gftv-two millions during his term more than
 was asked for in the estimates for appIoprl- atlons. The estimates of lS40 were less than twenty millions. I'he late whig admin istration ran it's estimates up 10 about thirty millions, while it's expenses varied from over thirty, 10 upwards oi thirty-three millions oi dollars per annun1. It will also be noticed in our former table, that 3Ir. Van Buren paid about eight millions more on account of ln- dian treaties, and about three millions more on account of revolutionary pensions, than was paid by the late whig administration On reviewing the whole ground, we have great cause to be proud ofhe late democrat ic administration, and we are happy to know that it's books contain no such monstrous bRaders and errors as were committed and published by its hard cider successor.

THE WH!G "NEW BOOGSo ONCE
 MORE

Our article showing Up the whig ''new books" continues to disturb our neighbors of the N Inteligencer. Tine charges we
 made against the late harleider administra- ton have been abandanjly sustained, and almost every particular, expressly or im- pliedly, admitted by the Iutelligencer. That paper distinctly admits ''that the whigs whilst they held the power in Congress increased the taxes" This Is one subject of just com plaint-lt admits the increase of the public
 debt during the late whig administration to over ten millions, but denies that 1t is lcltig legacy. We will not stop to dispute whether this addition to our debt is a case of icgacg. Perhaps we should have called 1t an inicri- tdace, instead of legacg By whatever name il may be called, this ten millions of addition to our debt is one of the conse. quences following the accession of the whigs to power, Both debt and increased taxation are fastened upon us. To escape from the responsibility of the sins of omission, and commission, the Intelligencer arraigned Mr.
 Van Buren's administration, and offered the financial report of Mir Ewing as proof of it's charges. We showed from the face of thai report, as extracted by the lntelligencer, thai there was one blunder alone of Sl3,254 ,500

pathy and respect for the Society of Tam many, and to pay tribute of love and ven- eration to our departed hero, ill commence rating with you the most ilustrious triumph ol, our arms.
 The present is time, when the hearts of all our counlrymen will recur with renewed affection, and warmer gratitude, to the me- mory of our great Leader ill war And, l though he has been withdrawn from us in this important crisis oi our publ C affairs, we shall still feel and act in every question ol national honor and national rights, as though his wise head and brave heart could still counsel and guide us. The lessons we have derived from him, are now doubly persuasive and impfessive; and the old Hero and Sage still lives to us in the counsels he has be- queathed, and the principles he instJIed. On the man who was his chosen friend, and is now the chosen Representative of our De- mocracy, we may rely for the calm, firm, sue cessiul maintenance of all hiS and our pIinci- pies; and, among them, that cardinal maxim Tn our foreign reiations-''to ask only what IS right; to submit to nothing that is wrong" In the maintenance of this high, just, brave principle, the Administration, we are all as- sured, will seek to preserve peace. while 1t can be preserved with national honor; and, be the event as 1t may, the undivided heart oi the people will support the assertion oi our rights.

 IHe astonishing aaa unexpected Itialapds of ihe Democracg!


 of the Democfaeyi
 The returns which have come in from the counlry-allhough up tc this time very par tial--show that a thorough revolution has taken place n Louisiana cotemporary with the establishment of new constitution, and that the party which has SO long held sway here, is undergoing tte process ot decomPo- si{io3.
 But the parish of St. James has done won ders--the residence of several of the most influential and distinguished leaders of the whig party, and where they have heretofore, for series of years, held uuaisputable sway. The democratic candidate Is in a minority of only l7 in this parish, and our nominee for Lieutenant Governor has actually a ma jority. We have elected Senator-Col. R. (. Nicholas, formerly U. S. Senator, and now Secretary of State of Loulsiana-oyer pow eriul whig competitor, and divided with our opponents the representation in the lower house. The democratic nominees for Sheriff and Coroner have also been chosen.
 If the vote in New Orleans, PIaauemines, St. Bernard, St. James and Jefferson, is fair test ol wha, may be expected Tn the remain der of the State, 1t will be tie most oyer whelming political victory ever achieved in Loulsiana by either party.
