DetestabIe Opposition,

The President cannot expect, and would
be injured to have the support of de-
fcated politicians. 1t would lead us to ques-
ton his purity should he receive the favor of
ex-ofice holders and those who sympathize
with them. Their favor is not expected, il
is not desired Such persons we shall not
attempt to satisfy, but shall content ourselves
by holding up to the ridcule of the people,
the widespread ground work of their viru-
lent attacks.
The Presidents commendable forbearance
has been pounced upon by the rancorous
spirits of defeated politicians, as indifference
towards the affairs of the Government Be-
cause he has not been arrogant and presum-
ing, he has been denounced as weak and i'm
beetle.
President Taylor has confined himself
strictly and consistently TO his duties as a
Constitutional Executive; he has exhibited
an abiding confidence in the Constitution,
and has given it his support He is a Wing
President, and has usurped no power. He
has never attempted to bring the great in
fuence Of his position to bear upon the de-
alterations of Congress, but has satisfied
himself by faithfully discharging his owl
duties under the Notwithstanding al
other functonaries, legislative and Judicial
to a consistent discharge oftheir's. He has
thought it sufficient to exercise the power re
posed in his hands by the Constitution, and
unlike some of his democratic predecessors
has not attempted usurpaton. These art
facts which the desperate defeated are stri
wing to torture into objections to the admin
istraton; these are facts, the perversiOn o
which the Republican has been howlin!
over most hIdeously. We wonder not at tn
wall going up in different parts of the coun
try-it is the breath of Implacable emit
arising from those who were hurled fror
their leasts at the public crib-it is the ran
corous cutlery of those who were cast lror
power by goaded people, and who nov
are lingering without hope of regaining i
Poor fellows!

ACCIDENT TO THE STEAMER GEN. WORTH.
The Green River packet Gen. Worth, says
the Louisville Couier, met with an accident
Tuesday night while rounding to at Bran
denburg, which, we are informed, was very
near proving quite disastrous. Fortunately,
however, but one person was hurt. A crank
of the larboard engine broke, causing the p.s-
ton rod to burst the cylinder head off, which
first hit the steam pipe, and then lodged on
the top of the boilers. One of the cylinder
bolts few out and struck Mr.. Hutchinson, the
engineer, on the thigh. breaking bis leg, and
otherwise injuring him. If the steam pipe;
had bursted quite a number ofpersons would
have been scaIded, as the boat was full o.
passengers.
The boat abandoned her trip and returned
to this port last evening, coming up on one
wheel

1t will be recollected that in IA the same
cry of protection or no furnaces" was sent
up from all parts of that State, and the oppor-
tunIty was seized upon to stop work, and
make capital IN two ways; TO repair their
furnaces and throw out the idea that they
could not sustain themselves if a tariff on n
more liberal scale than the one then in OPERA
ton should be established. They hoped by
that means to brighten the people into the
support Of federal candidates, and thus en-
able them to coin money at the expense OF
the lahorng classes.-L Republican.
1t will be recolIected that in IA. the cry of
protection or no furnaces was sent up
from the injured manufacturing classes in
every part Of the State of Pennsy lvania; and
that in view of the threatened disaster Of a
failure in their business they cease opera
tons, expecting the establishment of a tariff
on a more liberal scale than the one then il
operation. But finding the administration
then in power, totally unwilling to take from
them their load of oppression, they sough
the election OF such men to manage the rein
OF government as would show disposition t.
encourage the industrial pursuits and ad
vancement of the country, and who woul
thereby afford them that relief which a Dem
ocratic administration denied them. The

From the Masonic Review.
THE MASON AT MONTERREY.

BY MRS. s. H. OLIVER.
The lurid sun hung low and red,
Above the plains of Monterey,
Where 'mong the dying and the dead,
young and wounded soldier layi
Sill from the lannon's iron throat
Hoarse thunder burst, and cleaning fame,
And blended with the bugle's note,
The r-of shout of triumph came.
But needed not that shout of pride,
The soldier STRETCHED upon the plain,
For ooz'd away life's purple tide,
And fever burn'd in ev'ry vein;
His thoughts were in his native land,
Among the friends he held most dear,
Again he felt the breeZes bland,
And saw the waters gliding clear.
"Alasr' he sighed, delicious cream.
Those scenes shall never greet me more:
o for one draught from that sweet stream, ]
That sings beside my fathers door,"
just then Masod passing by,
BY the sweet angel Mercy sent,
Caught the poor youths responding sigh,
And listened to sad lament.
He brought him water bright and clear,
And bound with skill each bleeding wound
Then bore him on his breast sincere,
Far from that bloody battle-ground.
Long Death and Life together stroYe,
And oft Lilies lamp burned dim and low,
But in his faithful work of love
Ne'er did the Mason weary grow.
He marked with deep intense delight,
Health smile upon the grateful youth,
And heard him bless that Order bright
Whose lovely guiding star is Truth"
That Order, whose pure sons are found
Where'trlh foot Of man may rove
Sill pouring richest blessings round
The ministers of peace and love
