The organ OF the Galphin cabinet said yesterday

The organ Of the cabinet then goes to speak OF this
matter as slow trick Of the Clipper and Union" Now,
we beg leave say. with all due Differences (Which,
didy speaking very much, that the Republic foges
It's true position It seems oblivous Of the notorious fact
that it has been recently placed in hands for the pur
pose Of doing the dirty work which the National Ine
gencer expected do and the former conductors
Of the Republic were too honest doto defend corrupt
pactces justify official spoliaons OF the treasury and
to fawn around the ootstoos and fetch and carry at the
command OF who have disgraced the places they fill
These facts are notorious No doubts the of
the prescription of Messrs. Buu & Sargent, and the
turning Of the Republic to suppan and ODE

bat that journal is mistaken when it upon the
broad assertion that we know what articles have or
have not appeared editorally in the Republic. When
Messrs Bu Il Sargent its editors, did endeavor
fix 10 memory its various editorial POSITIONS but
now we see in continuing the practice The game
is not worth the candle.
AS to the particular quotation In controversy, we
saw it in the Baltimore Clipper; and we thought Of
course that it had appeared in the editorial columns
OF the cabinet organ But now it appears that the
article renominaing General Taylor for the presden-
cy printed originally in the Richmond Whig-a
aper which see, have long since refused
10 exchange with -ani that the Republic republished
it, emitting TO give due credit to the Richmond paper for
thus appropriatng its property Any mistake which may
have arisen from that omission is justly chageable to the
Republic, and not the Clipper. But what wrong has
been done to the Gaphin organ Is il customary with
that press epublish, WITHOUT explanation disclaim
err, articles which it does not approve or endorse 7
And if it did approve and endorse the article Of the
Richmond Whig why all this affected Indignation
because, through its error the article itself
tributed to it, We but for such

presidency in 1862 The Gaphns of the cabinet know
that all the decency and manness OF the wing party

and corrupt men who surround General Taylor They
know that there is hardly respectable wing be found
who does not wish TO them to that retirement
from which they never should have emerged They
fear that honest may gain the ear Of General Taylor

hence the effort make him believe that his adminst

denomination Of General Taylor for the presidency in
1854 The Republic may say what ii pleases; but can
not say with truth that ii has not endorsed the ar
Gle Of the Richmond Wing, and presented it for the APP
