Russia and Turkey:

An .AdmInistrativo Policy"-Out at Last.

The New York Courier and Enquirer, New York
Herald and other leading wing papers, have called upon
the administration put forth system of administrative
policy upon which its friends could rally in its defence
They have at last goit The correspondent of the Ba
more Clipper, Taylor paper writing from this city
under date of June Is, has the following
We favored, to-day at the evee in learning from
General Taylors Ups those things of which he is in
favor. He spoke loud enouy h be heard from end
of the the other. In reply to gentleman with
whom he convsrsing he declared 81 for good
roads, good harbors and good laws; and then go
ahead" These the identical words, and
there be objection whatever their purpor, not
by his political opponents.
Thus the administration platform of measures set forth
and defined in the felicous language of the "Secend
Washington" HIMSELF proclaimed in the presence OF the
assembled multitude in the East Room, is the following
GOOD roads, good harbors and good drs and then zoe
go ahead" We think the anxious and despa,ring
presses Of the wing party should be content They
have got the administrative policy at last and now
let us see them rally in its support We think the happy
and ornate language in which the General has defined
his system of policy can only be equaed by the cele-
bra,ed speech of the Postmaster General to the mail
contractors Verify, the wing party possesses all the
learning letters certainly flourish under this admnisra
ton.
