The Boston Post and the Coalition,

The Boston Post accuses US of misrepresent-
ing the course pursued by Colonel GREENE,
one of the editor, Of that journal, in relation to
the coalition with the Freesoilers of Massa-
chusetts.
In notice of the proceedings of the State
Convention, held at Fitchburg on the 9Th ult,
we stated that Colonel GREENE spoke in favor
of the coalition, and was rewarded by being
nominated for the office of elector.
We subsequently quoted from the Boston
correspondence of Democratic contemporary
a statement to the effect that Colonel GREENE
now assails the coalition, and that the Coalition
lists contemplate retaliation by striking his name
off the ticket.
The Post says that the two statements are
contradictory; that both, therefore, cannot be
true; and that we are guilty Of unfairness in
aiding in the PRONUNCIATION of them. We re-
ply that the evidence leads us still to believe
that both statements are true, and that Colonel
GREENE, not the Republic, is responsible for
whatever absurdity may grow out of the SEEM
ing discrepancy.
1t Is not denied, we presume, that Colonel
GREENE. an editor of General PIERcE's Boston
organ, figures on the coalition ticket as nominee
for the dictatorship. 1t is obvious that for that
nomination he is indebted to the Coalitionist
Democrats, who formed majority of the
convention; for had he protested against the
coalition, he would have retired with the
Hunker minority. That he did not protest,
nd hot ia ba al 81 .lo
ton, are points which rest on the published
reports Of the Fitchburg Receillc, and of
numerous other Massachusetts papers, We
are aware that, after he had obtained the
nomination, Colonel GREENE published in the
Post version Of his speech, which carefully
excluded the remarks favorable to coalition;
but we also know that that report was at the
time denounced by Massachusetts papers,
whose editors were present in the convention,
as essentially untrue. Hon. Mr.. kNowLToN,
member OF the convention, was amongst the
foremost to condemn Colonel GREENE's "dou-
BILE DEALING" and to reiterate the assertion that
Colonel GREENE owed his nomination entirely
to his advocacy of the coalition. The com
plexlOn of the ticket, and the known manner
in which it was constructed, are, prina fdcie,
proofs of the truthfulness of this representation
TO the second statement the Post, we un-
derstand. offers no denial. Colonel GREENE
now processes to oppose the coalition to which
he is indebted for his nomination.
We submit that we are under no obligation
to reject statements simply because they ex-
hibit a prominent Democrat in contradictory
positions. Colonel GREENE is not the only
member Of his party who desires to avail him
self of Freesoil votes, and yet be in good odor
with the friends Of the Compromise. That is
prevalent desire with his party at this mo-
ment, and we are neither unjust nor ungene-
rous because we avail ourselves of every proper
opportunity to bring it to the notice of the
country. If Colonel GREENE be annoyed by
the dilemma, the annoyance proceeds wholly
from his vacillation, not from the Republic.

The GERMAss Movisa,-Two noble poles in

Cole, Joy, and few others soon gave them q firm

ner clearly demonstrative of the identity of Ger
man labor with the prosperity Of the Wing party
and the success off principles A spirit ofstrong
attachment to General Scott seems to pervade this
class of our citizens, and large numbers Of them
appear determined to abandon every party tic for
the purpose of giving him good support. In the
course of the meeting, j. w. Moore, long an ardent
member of the Democratic party, came out and
advocated the election of General Scott with
spirit and zeal alike creditable to his head and
heart. and he assured bis hearers many other
Democrats were following in bis steps. The
hearts of the people are beginning to be stirred for
the brave old hero and the voice OF the nation will
soon be heard calling him to the high place to
which he has been named

Scorr IN THE Houa OF vIcroRy.--Upon the
eventful day whom General ScoTT entered the city
of Mexico, he issued the following congratulations
and injunctions to the gallant army under his
commands:
"Under the favor of God the valor Of the army
after many glorious victories has hoisted the colors
of country in the capital Of Mexico and on the
pals Of ts government. The honor of the army
and the honor of country call for the best be.
tain the appreciation Of God and country, be sober,
orderly, and mercifui. His noble brethren in arms
will not he deaf to this appeal from thcir COM
mander and friend.' y.
And on the evening of the same Jay be addressed
the troops in this becoming langunge:
"The general-in chief calls upon his brethren in
arms to return, both in public and private wor.
ship, thanks and gratitude to God for the signal
triumph which they have recently achieved for
their country, Beginning with the 18th OF Au
gust and ending the 14th instant, this army has
calamity fought its way through the fields and
forts of Contreras, San Antonio. Cburubusco, Mo.
limo del Rey. Chapultepec, and the gates OF San
Cosme and Tacubaya, into the capital OF Mexico.
When the very limited number who have per.
formed such brilliant deeds shall have become
known, the world will be astonished and our coun.
trymen filed with Joy and admiration"
We look in vain the pages of ancient or
modern history remarks the United States Gazette,
for any parallel to these impressive and touching
appeals in the hour Of triumph. They were the
spontaneous promptings of noble soul, BUNDLED
before God, when mans proud nature was most
prone to be presumptuous Of its own prowcss, and
mindful of moral duty before every suggestion oil
personal qualification OF the many laurels which
decorate the brow Of Winfield Scott, there 10 not

From the Neto Orleans Bulletin, October 9.
Our advices from the country are all favorable.
We entertain no doubt that ScoTT and GRAHAM
will carry Louisiana by a handsome majority.
Without the city falls lamentably behind, there
can be no question of it. The speakers from the
city, who left their homes in accordance with press
ing invitations to battle for the good cause, have
done much service-so say all accounts Randeli
Hunt and Harry Hays are still out. We have no
direct intelligence from them, but know wherever
they that the good cause will be ably, eloquent
ly, and faithfully attended to. The Hon. George
c. McWhorter has been doing excellent service in
Concordia, Catahoula, Ouachita, Caldwell, More
house, and Union. He is still in the field, and
will, we presume, address the people of the
whole of the northwestern parishes before he re-
turns. Judge McWhorter is able and effective be-
fore the people; in fact, we know few better calcu
lated to weld an influence among the masses. He
presents facts in their strongest light, and argues
his admirably.
Our letters from the interior say that there are
no Wing boilers; that the contest will be nearly
strict party one, but that where there are boilers
the Wing side profits by it.

Of Charles Sumner to the SENATE. and whose fond /:
est hopes are that they can secure such joint ma
jority OF Abolitionists and Democrats in the next
Legislature as can send to Washington another
Freesei Democrat to aid Mr.. Sumner In his efforts
to repeal the Fugitive Slave law. (,
Shall these attempts be successful! Will the
South blind their eyes to what is going forward?
Will they give success by their votes to such I'M
holy combinations? Will they throw themselves
into the arms of the Souies and Van Burens, the
Forsyths and Dixes; and play at a game where one
party is bound to be cheated, and where there is
every probability that they will be the victims?
There is yet time to render these tricks and at
tempts impotent and to great interests from
the anticipated clutch Of men who seek to control
them for bad and selfish purposes.

The nonchaiance with which Mr. CARTIER

"The meeting at the court house on Friday

Cartier made very able speech that was listened
to with brcathless attention. Most of it was de-

MIR. SOule.


This gentleman, in company with John Van
Buren, and several other peculiar friends Of the
South. has been stumpng the North in favor of
the election of General Pierce. This conjunction
of individuals and circumstances ia not at all as
remarkable it looks at the first blush. A little
reflection makes it as clear daylight. John
Van Buren, and his crowd desired to dissolve the
Union because Of the adoption of the Compromise
measures, which they said plundered the North.
Soule and his followers wanted to rend the Union
in twain on account of the same measures, which
they asserted robbed, degraded, and oppressed
the South. So II appears there is nothing extra.
ordinary in the spectacle Of the leading Abolition
ist and leading Secessonist of the Union working
costly together under the same harness! They had
the same object in view during the late tremendous
struggle; and no doubt they have only agreed
to postpone matters to accomplish given object,
which object involves cabinet seats for both of
them in case of the election of Pierce.
We have brief report of Soule's speech, deliv-
cred at Augusta, Maine, on the 2lst ult. We SUBJ
join one rather singular paragraph-very singu,
lar, when contrasted with certain notorious
event viii CHI occurred in this city about two years
ago.

undergone remarkable changein lees than twen-
