The ex-oflicia organ Of Executive prsroeutiye, the
Washington Union, since the inang OF Gen
Taylor, plays two tunes only--thc one entitled Pre-
scripiion, and the other The king can do no wrong
As regards the first, the fune Is changed whin the
name Is unallered While playing fulsome lalidatons
TO PresdentP Polk for his inexorable prescriptions and
lndnging III hyserica Iubilatums over the remorsa-
less head cuttings of the Wings, prescription
was tune TO which the Locofocos danced with
frpntic enjoyment. But now the organ has sadly
changed the tune prescription Is now In most
solemn, mournful, monotonous whining ehant--a
funeral dirge-instead OF blthesome, dancing melo-
dy.
As regards the second the tune isnnchanged, Dl-
though its peans TO the one man power are less i'm
prria, triumphant, and rapturous. President Tay-
lor expresses yeneration for the decisions Of the
Supreme Court confidence In the Representatives
Q the people, and says he shall be governed In his
Executive duties by Judicial precedents, and public
opinion as expressed by the peoples Repre- enta-
lives whereas President Polk and his immediate
predecessors, regarded the Executive power rs the
one man power, superior 10 all others and c0ntroll
ing all others the check Of all branch of the gov
eminent and itself the sale Judge Of Its own prerOga-
tves-a doctrine absolute as Is the absoluiism Of
the Imperial Autocrat.
This Is the doctrine of Locofocoisni and In prac-
ice II exhibits Itself In the arbitrary exercise Of the
rso power, In the exclusive monopoly of all Govern
ment Offices In controlling elections by the pTodiga
distribution OF public patronage, in commencing
wars with foreign powers without asking the advice
and consent OF Congress, in Legislatng by Execu-
live rescripis In conquered ter toes In concluding
treaties and Withholding part Of the stipulatons
from the Senate and generally, In the exercise of oil
power which grasping prcrogative. suggests and q
crouching pentloned, press can palliate.
Such are the acts, which Locofocoism applauds,
and the Locofoco press commend and defend-and
II is from this that General Taylor is rebuked
for declaring that the will OF the people Is impera
tive, and by that will as expressed by Congress- he
should be governed In the discharge Of his Execu-
| i've duties Gin Gar.
