An AMERICAN EDIToR.-From the Mtsrna-
tional for March we quote the following truth
ful sketch: .
has lately published several leading articles Of
such compactness and completeness, such weight
and dignity, MS distinguish only the greatest
compositions in philosophy and upon affairs
The intellectual force, acting through the press
OF this country, is habitually underrated. There
are q dozen Journals here which may be advan-
tageously compared with any in Europe with
the single exception of the Times. It would
perhaps seem invdious to point them out, from
the greater number that are conducted with
ability and energy; but it will not be objected
by any one who has the right to express an
opinion in the case, if we say that Mr.. Gales is
of the first rank Of public men who have ever
influenced or illustrated the course Of events
by written eloquence or argument. The lead
ing articles from his hand, which in the last
twenty-five years have appeared in the National
Intektgencer, would fill many volumes and, if
collected and so submitted to one view, they
would astonish by their variety, by the extraor-
dinary resources of information which they
evince, by their soundness of logic, elevation Of
sentiment and uniform adaptation to their
several purposes If they lack the pungent wit
and fiery energy Of phrase and adroitly venom
Gus spirit of "Junius" they have, with their
nobler calmncss and uniform candor, far
wider sweep, a subtler apprehension of conse-
quences, and more statesmanlike aim and
capacity. The diction of "Junius" was calcr-
lated to arrest attention by it's glitter and
strength, and by its freshness; for it was in
STYLE after all, that he was most creative, and
since his style has by imitation become familiar,
it is for the mystery of their authorship only
that his works have continued eminent. AS
materials for history, and as suggestive guides
of policy, we have in American literature very
few works so important as the leading articles
of Joseph Gales would constitute, itly arranged
and illustrated by such notes as he could readily
furnish, necessary now on account of the time
since some of them were originally printed.

The Massachusetts Coalition.

The editor Of the Indiana Journal commends to our
special attention, article copied from the Boston
Journal in relation the coalition, by which
Sumner abolitionis was elected the Senate in Mas
sachusetts. We thank him for the publication Of all
such articles Let every democrat, who had any
necon with this transaction, be branded they de-
serve. Hit them hard Mr.. Journal; they have but few
friends in this country. From the beginning have
denounced this unnatural and unholy coalition, and shall
continue to do So The Boston Post, edited with so
much ability by COL Greene, from the beginning has op-
posed the election of Sumner So has Morton, Hallitt
and other leading democrats. Thank Heaven, we have
independence enough denounce all such combinations
and all such results, let them be formed by wings or
democrats and for this spirit of independence, have
been charged with wishing read Democrats of the
party. But how different has been the policy Of the
Wing organ. The wings and abolitionists combined to
elect John P. Hale, and the combination recently
elected B. F. Wade, notorious aboonst, to the SEN
ate in Ohio, Tuck and Perkins New Hampshire aboli-
tonsts have recently been elected the House by the
aid of Wing votes
When these things done by Wings, there is no
complaint. The organ is dumb idol John Van
Buren, and W. H. Seward infamous letters Bos-
ton during the late slave excementthc former is
demned whilst the latter is excused This is the policy
of the Wing party. Our principles lead condemn
that which we regard as wrong, without enquring
whether the profess whiggery democracy and
when cease pursue that Independent which
has heretofore marked "Senne, j" may the pen with
which write, fall poweress from our hand The
election Of Sumner is foul blot the old Bay State
We fear the glory of Revolutionary Massachusetts is
be dmmed by her modern abolitionists.

Editorial Courtesy.

We in favor Of raising committee OF thirteen on
editorial courtesy in this State, be composed of
equal number Of Wings and Democrats, with Milton
Gregg, Esq, chairman, whose duty it shall be
from time time, to make suggestions to his Edlto-
rial brethren This idea has been suggested by reading
a lecture from the chairman intended for His
be takes from the Daily Sentinel, which is follows
"Tt is believed that the same General who once
fused to fight Gen. JACKSON and shortly after challenged
Gov CLINTON when he knew that he would not accept,
is to be the Wing candidate for the Presidency"
This short article clipped from eastern pa
per and inserted without comment We have no dispo-
stion call in question the vaor of Gen. Scott the

the Wing party expect that the Democrats will sit still
and suffer their candidates to be denounced
sting, they understand but little of human nature.
The controversy between Gems. Jackson and Scott is
part of the history Of the country So is his correpon
dence with Dewitt Clinton and the whole will be pub
lshed when Gen. Scott candidate for the Presidency.
This is of the tender spots the New Orleans Bee

Scott not to fight Gen. Jackson-we give opinion.
But little strange that if he conscientious

fight the Hero Of New Orleans, that he should after.
wards willing in mortal combat the distin-
gushed New York civilian. The merits Of this ques.
ton is not now before the country and shall in
troduce it,
But we ask our wing contemporary to look back on
the canvass for the Presidency, at tire several elections
since 1924. What were the charges against General
Jackson! He was denounced a usurper and tyrant.
Who does remember the coffin hand billsl He was
charged with the murder of "Arbuthnot and Ambris-
ca" and poor John Woods" This was not all: the
sancy Of his fire side invaded and the kind and be-
nevOent partner Of his bosom assaied with fendish

ton Of his descendants Polk himself charged with

thousands, charging Gen. Cass with cowardcc and the
author rewarded by the present administration
with fat office. All these things right when done
by Wings One man may steal horse whilst another

which applies to this First take the beam out of
