PRESCRIPTION,

4 The Tribune of last week contains almos
a column of editorial under the head of pro
scription' We are fully aware that th'
Tribune man is Federalst Of the old school
but we still hoped he had moral honest,
enough to admit that there was now and theI
an honest and capable democrat holding Of
fee; but on reading the article alluded to, W.
were forced to a different conclusion. Hs
says Gen. Taylor has violated non of his
4 pledges which lie made previous to his elec
tion, and that $50 far he has kept his word.
We'll there it is, democrats are all incompe
tent to hold Office under Gen. n.Taylors ad.
ministration. @What other conclusion can o
Wing editor come to, for the editor of the
Tribune admits that Gen Taylor didmake all
the pledges the Democratic press charge upon
him, and to say that the old Hero did no,
make them in good faith but merely to get
Democratic votes, would be charging Gen
Taylor with dishonesty, and hence these very
honest and .capable' wings set up the cry oi
'Locofoco dishon esty.
But our neigbbor hardly finishes sentence
when he contradicts his own language, Hs
says, at the time Gen. Taylor made those
| pledges he was a private citizen and than
exul,ingly sxclsims; 'but did that bind him
for all future timeH There, IS not that vir-
tually admitting just what the Democratic
press have charged Gen. Taylor with! We
told the peopls be fore the election that his
pledges were made for no other purpose than
to get votes and the Tribune says in effe CT,
that we told them the truth.
The Tribune further says, that after Gen.
Taylor's nomination 'hs political opponents
- offic holders, otfice.seekers and editors Of
newspapers sbussd the old man 'by getting
up ISLANDERS the most FOUL Yes, Gen. Tay-
lor WAS slandered, and that too the most foul, !
bal all the ISLANDERS heaped upon the old hero
was done by the British Wing press and
foul moathed federal offce-seskers.
T The Democratic office-holders and pub.
fishers of Democratic Newspapers never
slandered the hero Of Buna Vista, but were
ever ready to defend him from British Wing
and Mexican Corwin Whggery when he was
fighting our battles in a foreign land. And
for such acts they are not fit to live in
civilized community much less to hold Office
in a Republican country Well now we
claim hat the Democratic party is civilized
and we think will be enlightened by the mex.
pr esidential election. Hurra for Wing civil
izatlon and New York murd er!
But the democrats complain for being re
moved from office. Not so. They are near
ly telling you MIR. HuIburd and the rest of.
the Federalsts about your lies and of course
you don't like to swallow them.
Again, Mr. Huburd says, that the Demo
cratic party, for the last twenty years, Shave
retained their adherents and favorites in Office
10 the entire exclusion Of the Whig party
Well if that haint whopper we wouldn't
say so. Hulburd must have manufactured
that out Of whole CLOTH Wonder if our eigh-
Dor received lesson from old lack lately!
Examine the history of your country, and ,ur
word for it you will lay down the book a
wiser and perhaps better man.
The writer of this article, although he has
one of his little fingers in uncle Sam s pocket,
if removed will not prove 'defaulter to the
government nor will it expose his short
comings And he also believes he is honest
and as cspableto discharge the duties of the
office as the Tribune man. should he receive
the appointment to said office. But all this
would not do, the present incumbent must be
removed--W Why? Because he did mt vote
for the mo party president Oh! consistency
thou art indeed jewel.
