PLAIN AND HoNFsT TALK.--.Our read

been inclined to over estimate the patri.
otism Of the Locofoco leaders Of either

with the division of the party. it would
not stand in the way Of "A reconciliation
The organs ofthe two sections keep up a
continual fire at each other about the
great principles" which neither Of them
care a fig for but occasionally "a CLEAN ol
truth shines out through all this misty
nonsense. Such gIeam we find in The
New York Globe. which speaks to its
friends in the following plain and unmis'
taxable language.
