We brought our remarks on this singular
document. last week to close, because we
could not then trust ourselves to attempt to
speak Of the singular efiusion Of Demagogueism
and political rancour as ii deserves. The author
has s.strutted bis hour upon political stage, his
capacity for misehiefwiil cease forever, in few
short months, and we are disposed to review his
nultifarious acts of mnl-administration ''more
n sorrow than in anger" 1t was therefore
with feelngof deep modification that we read
the concluding columns Of this message We
thought Of the Presidents boast that at no for
mer period has our nation maintained as proud
position in the eyes OF foreign nations, and
could not refrain from asking the question,
What muststhe statesmen OF the Old World
think Of people whose Chief Magistrate in his
annual communication to the National Legisla-
lure, gravely assures them that party has exis-
ted in the country for more than third OF q
century, whose object is 70 snbyert the free in
sstitations Of the Republic' What win they
think Of us when they know that at the head of
this party in 1916 was James Madison, then
President of the United States and one OF the
fathers Of the Constitution; that the principles
this patty were in the ascendant from the close
of the war with Great Britain in 1914, to the
commencement Of Jacksons administration in
1929 and that the late Presidential canvass ter
minated in the triumph Of this party by al
very decisive majority? The recollection of
the lest named fact, will of course do much to
redeem our national character from the disgrace
brought upon it, by the emanation from the Ex-
ecutive Chair Of rhapsody that would come
more appropriate from Locoloeo candidate for
the State Legislature among the wild mobocra-
cies Of Illinois and Missouri.
We refrain from further notice Of the puerile !
effort Of the President to defend his mischievous
and indiscriminatc use Of the veto power, (the
idea that this should be lavorite feature with
the Democracy materially provokes smile, and
turn him over to our correspondent whose caus-
tic pen has done the work TO our hand

Administration Of Gen. Taylor an energetic and un-
ia stppeu They are men (accordfng 70 the Ncrih
Amer!can9 who lssire meet together on common
platform terms Of perieef equality, and IN spirit

& We cannot withheld the expression Of our
sorrow at seeing the nameofssscfaI distinguish
ed members Of the Wing party connected with
this humbng. II would seers to Us, that we
have had enough Of third parties The fate Of
the Corporars guard which surrounded John
TYLER, should be warning to all ambitious pol
itieians, who prefer their own advancement TO
The great interests Of the cosntry. Gen. Taylor
was elected as a Wig. These gentlemen rec
8ommend him to the American People as Wing.
They even went so far as to denounce in un-
I. measured terms the refractory politicians who
affected to doubt his adherence to all the articles
Of the Wing creed These gentlemen have
fought under the Wing banner for years; they
! have labored to convince the American People
4 that the success Of Wing Principles was esse n
,ial to the advancement Of the true interests and
& glory Of the country Nov, either gentlemen
have been guilty Of gross hypocricy and practi-
ced d gross fraud upon the people, or the Wing
party is all they have represented it to be. II
3 itis why change their name for our part, we
honestly enlisted under the Wing, banner; we
love our principles and are attached to our name.
We gave our hnmble support to Gen. Taylor
because we regarded him, IS we still do regard
him, as good Wig. Could these gentlemen
demonstrate that he is anything else, we would
loathe ourselves did we not donounce the per-
petrators of Tie infamous deception practiced
upon the Wings Of the Union, and wash our
hands Of any participation in the acts Of set Of
political gamblers. But we were almost guilty
Of the folly Of writing ourselves into passion
on account of the freak Of set Of politicians
the majority Of whom after all were we suppose
only actuated by the desire to recommend them
selves to Gen. Taylor as his peculiar friends
with .sview to their Interior advantage as al
old friend of ours used to say in his advertise
ments.
The idea Of an Administration withouta part,
is altogether utopiaa. Gen. Taylor might de
sert the Wing party without uniting with tn
Locofocos, (of this however, we repeat we hav
no fears) and condemned by another portion q
his fellow citizens, for the mere designation c
4Taylor Democrats" would hardly prevent tn
people from dividing as they have heretofor
done on the great questions which agitate tn
political world.
