The Consul OF Spain at New OrIean..

The New Orleans papers Of the 9th and 7th in
slant filled with a correspondence in relation
TO proposition said 10 have been made 10 the Span
ish consul the purport Of which was that, for and
in consideration of $500, a pamphlet was TO be
gotten out containing the evidence in the Of

Carlos de Espsna to the people Of the United States
m the attitude ofa injured man. II having been
reported that person connected with the New Or
leans Bulletin was the individual who thus volun-
teered 10 be suborned, the reporters Of New Orleans
addressed letter TO the publishers of the Crescent
who stated, in the first instance, the existence Of
such rumor, demanding from whom they had
heard 1t. The name Of Mr.. A. Walker, Of the
Delta, having been given up, that gentleman was
called on TO state who the reporter referred to-
and promptly gave the name Of Mr.. Perry, Of the
Bulletin Mr.. Perry then wrote the following note,
in reply to from the reporters, stating that they
intended to publish his name, which was done:

To Mr.. ID. ScULLY and others:

The matter created great excitement in New Or
leans, which was not in the least alsyed by the APP
pearance Of the following paragraph in the Deita
Of the 7th instant:
"Weintcnd that there shall be no misunderstsnd-
ing or twistifcston about that business Of the
charge made against a reporter, OF making prOpo-
sails TO the Spanish consul The idea which certain
parties seem DESTROYS Of conveying, il, that the
charge originated with Of the editors Of this pa
per This IL quite erroneous, 10 say the least Of IT,
No charge Of the sort ever made by Of the
editors Of ths paper A statement wac made by
him that two gentlemen, whose names have al
ready been given had stated that proposals. Of the
character referred 90, were made TO the Spanish
consul-one Of the gentlemen giving the name
Of the reporter, and that Of the paper with which
be IL connected. Nothing was stated of our own
knowledge and therefore no charges were made
by us; bot the whole matter lies between the gen
tlemen making the charge and the party impli-
Gated. They have been introduced 10 one another
and we leave them 30 settle the matter between
them"

one of the handsoInest compliments which the ed

Mr.. Richie is competent authority, and
he, instead of discarding US as "a fellow"
whose abuse is compliment, and whose
praise misfortune, recognises few kindly
words from us, justly due TO his character
| and years, az ''the handsomest compli-
| ment" he ever received.
But that is not all Mr. Richie has said,
which gives emphatic contradiction to Mr..
Edmund Burke.
The Union of May Goth contains the
following testimony that we are not "a fell
low" who may be dismissed as black
guard;
" We fear that the Pittsburg Commercial Journal,
20 whose high toned sentiments in regard to the
decences Of political antagonism we had lately the
pleasure of bearing our humble testimony, does
not give universal satisfaction to that portion Of the
Wing press whose chief weapon of warfare consists
In calling hard names. We always read with re-
spect political argument when written with can

What says Mr.. Burke to that While
he sNUBs us, his senior-an {" elder and
better soldier"-recognise our unpretend-
ing sheet as respected and welcome
visiter
We withhold the comment we are fair
ly entitled to make on this complete *
posture of the empty and disreputable sub
terfuge to which the junior editor of the
Union has not scruped to resort at the
prompting of resentment or caprice. II is
enough for us to show him by his part
ner's testimony how he has stumbled on a
violation Of truth, when he outraged de-
cency by his vulgar commonplaces and as
persion of us. We do not SO value Mr..
Burke's good opinion, however highly we
may rate his talents, as to desire to win it
over a retraction of his coarse vitupera-
ton /; nor do we so much fear aspersion
from his pen that we would ordinarily
yield space to repel it. But the circum-
stances were tempting, and we could not
refrain from playing off the courteous de-
meanor of fine old gentleman of the
cold Dominion" against the coarse vul-
garity of his more aspiring and presump-
tuous partner. The lesson may be useful
to Mr.. Burke, and we advise him to lay it
to heart. As for ourselves, our duty is
| discharged when we have written it out,
and he may settle the question of veracity
with his partner IN private, # he can.

The President OF the People.

All the journals Of the Democratic party
visit General TAYLOR with daily abuse,
on the allegation that he has violated his
solemn pledges TO become the President
Of the people. One ground Of this alleged
violation Of pledges is the determination
Of General TAYLOR to break up the Loco
foco monopoly of office, which has been
enjoy ed for some twenty years. The ear
Hest removals called forth this outcry. He
had hardly selected his Cabinet, and made
a score of appointments, when the Opposi-
ton organs began to groan under their
burden Of "victims" Butchers, axes,
guillotines-" hatchets, racks and vipers
danced through" their columns Gin all the
mazes Of metaphorical confusion" The
Locofoco Interpretation thus early placed
upon the alleged promise Of President TAY-
LoR amounted TO continuance Of the pro-
scription Of the Wings, and the perpetuity
Of patronage and power in the hands Of
Locofoco office holders whereas, the just
construction Of it demanded an immediate
displacement of at least one half Of the

Fearful Condition OF Ireland

The London Times thus describes the political
and social condition of the Z" sister kingdom -
The main symptom of her present state is the
utter antagonism Of ranks and classes. The die.
cord which first existed between Papist and Pro
testant, or Orangeman and Ribandrran has now
become the dscord between landlord and tenant
between the poor and the rich, between those who
have and those who have not There is now
IN progress a war, determined, obstinate, and not
unfrcqucntly sanguinary, between property and
want. Rent is no longer evaded but pillaged by
the tenant. All the securities which the law has
provided for it's payment have become nullity
and a mockery. Armed and multitudinous force
vanquishes the law, and secret deliberations give
additional support TO force.
"Where there is not detachment of soldier,
ready TO assist in the collection of rent the marau-
ding tenants triumph, and the landlord is plum.
dered without redress. Already blood has been
shed in "A vain attempt TO yindicate the rights of
property, and while we write most probably fresh
outrage has been followed by fresh carnage few
weeks more, such the last six have been in some
OF the Irish counties and the idea of property will
have been extrpatcd the ties Of civil society ire
parably broken, and pest worse than any physi-
cal malady perpetuated therein.
This Is not the worst part of the crime it's
sequences IL is not only pcrpetrated by the igno-
rant and the uneducatcd, but il is tolerated en-
couragcd and defended by men Of know ledge and
education. IL is hailed by patriots the retrbu-
tive war Of the oppressed against the opprcssor; Of
the injured and plundered scrf against his dorni
ncering and extortionate master. In the remem
brance of old wrongs and old neglect are buried
the suggestions and the dictates Of law
"Some landlords were cruel and others indiflcr-
ent; therefore all landlords should be robbed such
is the logic with which Irish patriotism addresses
the most inflammable minds in Europe. The les
son is not lost. The spark falls on the gunpowder
as IL was meant that Il should While the mon Of
