CO. A Hunker Locoloco paper, published
in Michigan, boots at the idea that J. h. Polk
is resposible for the great National Debt crea-
ted by the Mexican war, and argues that"the
people were tired of peace and would have war,
either with Mexico or some other Nation; and
if they choose to go to war and create Ma
tional debt, and heavy taxes upon themselves,
they are free agents and have the right to do it,
and il is neither the President or the govern
ments fault"
Admitting, for the sake Of argument, that some
of the people did desire a war and heavy taxes,
this very doctrine would make the deuil him.

to sin" but then men are free agents, and its
their own fault If they have TO suffer the conse-
quences. Very true, but he is no less the de-
vii, or less to be held as the father of evil and
iniquity So in regard to the doctrines of 10
cofoism. The people ought TO have resisted
the temptation: they had eyes, but they would
not see its deformities-they had ears but they
would not listen 10 the warning Of the Wings
against its treachery-and its just and right that
they should suffer, as they hare suffered, and as
they riH suffer for years to come, the punish
ment due to their infatuation; but does thi.
commend Locofoism TO our regard, or entitle
il to our charity? Assuredly not. The con.
trary mode OF reasoning would make the deceiv-
ed as culpable as the deceiver. transform Satan

CITY OF EVANS WILLIE:
MONDAY MORNING, SEP. IL.

GOVERNOR Dixon AT NEwBURG.-A nnmber
of the citizens of Newburg, in the adjoining
county of Warrick, anxious TO have this talen-
ted Kentuckian deliver speech at their thri-
wing town, addressed him letter inviting him
q do so. which invitation he accepted, and on
Thursday last he proceeded 10 ill the appoint
ment. We were of the number who had thu
qualification TO hear him, and we hope TO b.
believed when we declare we would ride tw ice
the distance any day and through any weather
to hear such a speech as Governor Dixon de-
livered on that occasion. The church was
crowded, and more than half the audience, We
were informed, were Of the party styling them
selves democrats, and more attentive. orderly
and respectable crowd We have not seen gath
cred anywhere. MIR. Dixon spoke nearly three
hours, and while he was so fortunate as not 10
incur the displeasure of single one Of his OPP
ponenis, he succeeded in satisfying all that
what he stated were facts, and we think in
convincing many that Gen. Cass and Democ-
racy had nothing TO do with each other, and
that Gen. Taylor was The man Of the people, in.
TO whose hands it safest to place the E1-
ecutive office. Mr.. Dixon very briefly review.
ed the course pursued By the Administrations
which it has been guilty and for which the
country is now suffering, and then proceeded
to a consideration Of the political character Of
Lewis Cass. He touched off his early history

of Marshall, then as Governor of Michigan, al
the time he enacted that law which exhibit.

had been for and against every important mea

people TO trust with the high and important of

Gov. Dixon pronounced an eloquent eulog
upon Gen. Taylor, and retired with the thank
of the Wings and the applause Of the crowd 70

ID. will have good effect we will not doub
for moment. The Democrats showed tina

The GovERYMENr PROPERTY. peace
with Mexico has brought vast amount Of
Government property into market. Ships,
boats, wagons, camp equipage. horses, mules,
munitions of war, and provisions-all these
and more were TO be Sold Witha view to OBJ
tain good prices, competition should have been
invited by general and full public notice. The
information from Vera Cruz shows how the
thing has been done-how 1.-The property has
been sacifced-according to the most efficient
rule of plundering the public. There the mere
rubbish was advertised and sold at publicsale.
The valuable articles-ships, steamers, &C.,
went off in private ,ray. The ship U. S. ST..
Louis, cost $4,000, in Philadelphia, sold to
somebody unknown for $500. The iron steam
er Mary Somers, cost $50, 900. sold for $4,000
or less. the brig Architect, coppered and cop
per fastened, cost some IS 900, sold for S4OO.
The surf boats, the property at the castle, and
that on the Island of SACRIFICES, all sold at pri-
rate sale, and strange rumors are afioat as to
those sharing the profits. So it was-or very
like it, at Matamoras; horses, mules, wagons,
&c, parted with for song. and that badly
sung.
Some of the newspapers speak with grea,
severity against these plundering movements,
and in terms they richly deserve. They speak
las il it was new to swindle Uncle Sam,-as II
fraud and collision were not common to such
transactions. After the close of the Florida
war, the Government lost millions by the dis
honesty of the agents of the War Department,
under Gen. Cass. One of the demoralizing eff
fects of war is found in the temptations held
out TO dishonest agents to peculate upon the
public.
These sales will remind many of thesales ofthe
boats aud tools for the improvement of the
Mississippi aud Ohio rivers, by order of Pres
ident Van Buren,.
