The northern tribune. [volume] (Bath, Me.) 1847-1855, 1848-02-18

tYThe editor of the Times, in his usual
gentlemanly manner, still refuses to inform
the people whether he endeavored to obtain
berth in the Waldoboro' Custom House or
not. Now we do not find fault with the high
ly refined expressions used in his article; for
man forced to the position where he must
either acknowledge that he has told what IS
not true, or that leader of his party has,
cannot be expected to manifest the temper of
saint. AS for his ears, two appendages to
which he alludes so often that we may sup
pose he has peculiar attachment for them,
we fear they stand chance of being shorter
before they are longer, if the sheriff does his
duty. But, notwithstanding this we think he
may still hope to be Vicar of Bray, as he much
resembles, in his political twistings and turn
ings, the course of the other Reverend that
once filled that station and gave it such noto
riety.

slaves there. Neither Congress nor the people
had any right to prevent them from doing So
He denied that the Constitution granted any
such power.
The Senate laid aside the morning business,
