Extract to the Editor, dated
WASHINGTON CRY, June 10, le49
Dear Sr:-Whether Mr., .Butterfeld will
take the place of Judge Young, us Commission
er of the General Land Office. am not positive
in my information. But this can tell you,
tile United States will lose the services OF
Judge Young on the 3Oth inst, is my firm opin.
ion, whether the above citizen of Chicago sue
cecds him or not. If mistake not, Mr.. Ew-
ing was a member Of the Senute of the United
States at the same time with Judge Young;
hence, his necessity of being rid of Judge
Young.-Mr. Ewing is not the man to let the
opportunity slip of marking democrat with
his fang, when once in his power R. M. Young
Of illinois, has nothing to lose by being remov-
ed by such person as Thomas Ewing, Of Ohio.
who, let me tell you, Mr.. Editor. was the
puppet and Imam Friday Of Mr.. Clay, the
whole period Of his Senator's term; and if he
does not prove the adder sting Of death to Gen.
ready, see the hand Of desolation with which
he sweeps the land Therefore. Judge Young
will 60 to the People thrice armed against this
foe of the human family. that Gen. Taylor has
suffered to creep in and coil upon his bosom,
and to tester the body polite of the land
How, in the name Of Heaven, such man as
Mr.. Ewing, with his dark and ma lignant mind
his unrepenting and forbidden aspect
cold. blooded and reckless conduct, his gloat.
cd thirst for mischief. and his rejoicing in the
opportunity to render families miserable BY
robbing them of their pport--hecnmc mem.
Der of Gen. aylor's cabinet, is to me en- unex.
plainable position. fear it will never be ex.
planned, until the "old war horse" has been
ruined IN the affections Of the American PEG
pie. Mr.. Meredith, Mr.. Preston. and that stcr.
ling Wing patriot Reverdy johnson, should
frankly let Gen. Taylor know, how near he is
to the prccipice Of ruin. For the sake of the
country;-Ior the glory and prosperity of the
land; but more, the honor of General Iay|ors
fair fame, to himself and fumily-,he above
gentlemen should step forth, fearless Of conse-
quences, al d tell him of the mischief that is do
ing The public cause" by the conduct of tn cir
colleague, Ewing, SO that he, Gen. +. may rid
himself Of the incubus at an early day, and the
Ship of State rightcd by selecting a more Judi
cious politician for the Interior Department
Even now, Ewing is conspring with Seward
OF New York, to supplant Cen Tay lor; and if
Mr. Clay had any prospect in the world Of sue
cess he would engage in any scheme, 81 us to
be engaged in as much mischief and intrg ue as
possible. The more the better, as he expects
the easier to escape detection. Robcspicrc
tried many ways and means to consummatc his
crimes upon his friends and fellow citizens of
his just deserts. So with Mr.. Ewing, he plans
and executes, puts "heuds ON" & cuts "heads
off, but in the end, he will be detected by
some honest man, and his days be brief in Of
hce. John Tyler measured Ewing mind and
walked him from the woolsu ck Gladly would
he have renamed. even after the kicking he
got from President Tyler; and, true Is preach.
ing, Mr. Editor, when he did 90 out, he went
blu6bering and abusing Mr.. Tyler. So it will
be by him towards Gen. Taylor, when Ewing
is dismissed. The rest Of the Cabinet there.
fore, should look we'll TO him.
Sec, also, the prescription by Mr. Ewing, Of
Col. Medill, the Commissioner of Indian Az
ialrs-an officer of vastly superior merit to
himself, and citizen Of the same county But
SO we go: worth and merit receive no favor
from Mr.. Ewing, pcradventure the possessors
are republicans
For moment. also, Mr.. Editor, sec what in.
justice has been done the public service by the
removal Of Edmund Burke, Esq. the Commits.
sioner of the Patent Ofice:-and the accom-.
pished and ever respected II. l.. Sylvester
the latter as Chief clerk of that important
branch of service, and so intimately interviewer
with the interests Of the people OF the whole
Union. Can you for a moment believe, the ex.
igenc'es Of the times require this change Of Mr..
Burke? Not at all. sir; but the heart of Mr..
Ewing did, and that is sufficient reason for his
action. Mr.. Burke has since become ca. editor
with Mr.. Richie, and is daily paying his com.
pliments to the broad.uAe and cleaver man of
Ohio, who holds sufferencc at present at the
hands of Gen. Taylor-which permission is a
disgrace to the age, to the donor and the coun.
try. ~ I@a ~ a.-9s4aH stsaa a@t ai5

If should, you will be advised.
