TuE PRESENT ADMINISTRATIONS There
probably never was, during the entire existence
Of our country, an administration SO unmindful
of its duties and responsibilities, and one which
seemed to have such utter disregard for
the honor and prosperity of the country and the
lives Of its citizens.
While an expedition was fitting out for hos.
tile descent upon the possessions Of a friendly
power, in violation of our treaties aud laws, the
President and his cabinet are off on pleasure
trip to New York.
While American citizens are butchcred in
cold blood, without even the form Of trial, or
any positive knowledge of their guilt the Presi-
dent is rusticating in Virginia, ana his cabinet
electioneering for the " hig ticket all over the
Union.
While his Abolition allies are committing
treason by arlning fugitive slaves 10 resist the
laws Of the land, and instigating them to murder
citizens enteavoring to obtain their own proper
ty, while blood is flowing almost within sight of
the Capital, the President and his cabinet-are
