Government has allowed him for arduous

A Wing and Democrat had been DISCUSSING

that his opponent was an obstinate man, who
would not be convicted of his error, and
put an end to the dispute by proposing a
vote on the Presidency "Gentlemen, y

JUSTICE TO THE DEAD-We notice in
some of the partisan papers comparison
between the late President Polk and Gen.
Pierce, in which great injustice is done to
the former Both were members of Con-
gress at the same time, and the Journals of
the four years they were in the House show
their relative standing and influence in that
body. Mr.. Polk was soon selected as chair
man OF the mOst important committee of
the House-that of Ways and Means; and
during the last two years was the Speaker
OF the House, where his great ability was
admitted by all parties. General Pierce
never was a member of any important com
mlttee either Of the House or Senate, as anv
one will see by referring to the Journals Of
Congress. We have no objection to seeing
the most ample justice done to the General
by his supporters, but in sucuring their own
ends they should not do injustice to the
memory of Mr.. Polk, who occupied very
different rank in point of ability and states

Except for cotton he has neither foreign

prove, when there is no market at home or
