We knew that The National lrltellisencer was
opposed 10 the principles OF M r. Jefferson, but
we could no, believe that paper would be so bold
as TO ascribe The most odious and noxlous lac
tons Of the day 10 the doclrinf OF the great VIZ
eipia statesman The abo'.e passage from The
Inlelisencer is most unfoI tunate III charging
"anlirenism" upon the I! effersonan party
When we see the Wing of New York noinl-
nalng ior Governor IN, who is strongly sus-
pecied Of anli-renism-vVhen We find the nom-
nation OF The same individual confirmed by
Convention OF Anti Re ners, we have reason 10
believe that majority OF the Wings oil New
York must be tainted with these odious doctrines
The New York Ey press says that the nomina-
lion Of John Youp g by the Anti-Renters in Con-
venlion, makes good deal Of sensation in The
city Of New York, The Wing Courier threatens
rebellion in the: following terms. Referring Ia
Mr. Young's arh-renl votes in the Legislature, il
SAYS:
with these votes on record against Mr.. Young,
and his refus ing 10 declare that he is not in Ia
vor OF legjss tive interference with vested rights,
we cannot perceive how il IS possible Tor any
conservative Wing press 10 sustain him. We
certainly cannot, in the present position OF affairs;
but we still indulge The hope that Mr.. Young will
proclaim himself a Wing and opposed TO legis-
atve interference with vested rlghfs, even II such
declaration should lose him the vote OF every
Anti-Renter in the Stale. An honest man nom-
mated by an honest party, should not require 10
be sustained by men who have been guilty OF de-
liberate murder in resisting the legal authorities
Of The State when called forth in defence Of the
vested rights of her citizens.
I'm due time, (adds the Courier if Mr.. Young
should refuse 10 answer the very simple question
proposed to him, We shall explain our course at
length leaving 10 others 10 act according Ia what
they may conceive their duty in the premises =
One thing it is The duty of the meeting tonight
TO do, and that is, plainly and distinctly 10 sci
forth whether they adop, Mr.. Young rs an Anti
Renter, or as The opponent Of ina, infamous party.
Do moi lei il be said that Mr. Young is 10 be sup
ported BY The Wing party, both as an Anti Rent
er and as a Conservative Vtig."
The Express peously adds:
ave hope and trust that, in The end, all will
come oui right"
We have rarely seen more reched attempt
TO injure The Democratic party, Than The follow
| ing assertions in the Georgia Sollhern journal
However The battle al Monterey may result, MIR.
Polk is to be held guilty OF gross errors. If Gen.
Taylor defeats the Mcxicans (of which We have
bu, little doubt,) no credit is due 10 the admins
lralion-if he is himself defeated, the Executive
is 10 be da mned in public opinion. Now, we
presume that no one expects the President 10 d-
| rect Gen. Taylor how many troops 10 carry with
| him. That is wisely left to the discretion OF the
| military officer. The Government has provided
Gen. T. with the means of transportation for the
journey, and, prepared 10 meet The enemy, he takes
with him men enough, as he supposes, TO effect
his object. We see in some oil the letters from
the army, that General Taylor is satisfied with
his present force, regarding larger number as
not available. Why. then, should the President
bear all The blame, il our army meet with disaster?

who voted against providing means for the de-
fence of American soil. The country has, long

"The latest accounts from Monterey state, thai

Mexicans. Within few DAYS march Of that
place was General Worth, with the advance o
The American army and by forced marches Gen

what they conceive 10 be a just war the former

What are we, in reason, 10 expect from such a
stale of things? II rictoru?-it will be because
OF the gallant band who compose our army. A

The display OF American manufactures of al
