10 Truce-No slleace.

No Truce-No silence.
The organ Of the National Democracy il
New York. by no means appears willing tc
make a truce with President Pierce's Cab
met, or to be silent as respects its ''Soft'
Iproclivities. Victory has made it more firm
if anything. in It's opposition to Governor
Marcy, Col. Davis. Mr.. Cushing and their
policy as deyeloded It feels just ia the
trim for continuing the controversy; it has a
sbrewd suspicion that both Marcy and Da-
Wis have their eye on the Presidency, and
are endeavoring to make capital for 1856,
and with these men it intends TO keep up the
war. How accurate is the judgment form
ed among the National democracy 81 the de-
signs of Messrs Davis u Co., and with what
vigor tits determined to counteract them,
will appear from the following extract from
the N York National Democrat, Of Nov. Is:
eve think the Nationals have fully per-
formed allthey asserted they would do, and
that was, to show the Union, Secretaries
Marcy. Guthrie, Davis, and Gushing. that
freesoiIism is not feature in our party, and
that the democracy of the State could never
be abolitionized.
"When these four Cabinet officers and
their arrogant mouth piece, are placed in
position where they can nc longer injure
the democratic party--when We shall have
men j. powerful places, d lie heads q IL
fluential bureaus, who Eill be content wiz
their legitimate duties, and suffer local cleo
tons to proceed without imprudent interfer-
ence-when democrats shall no longer be-
removed from Office because they will not
put freesoilers into all the ofices-when
such democratic times shall arrive, then no
one, no press will be found more ready for
a ''truce" than ourselves: but assuredly not
till then.
"Duringth the unpleasant controversy which
has taken place, we have only fought in the
defensive. w. L. Marcy, the moment he
took position as a confidential adviser Of
President Pierce, commenced prejudicing
his mind against the National Democrats of
this State. In this he was assisted by Sec
rotary Guthrie. Davis and Gushing soon
followed in the wake, and the whole four
spent all their power against the only men
who sustain the principles Of the compro-
mise, upon which the Presidentw was elect
"a - ~
- During the recent campaign. We. have
been very frequently, and most unjustly
,ssailed by the Union, in wrongfully charg-
no us with hostility to President Pierce.
This was repeated nearly every day. Our
did not suffice. for it kept up
his constant untruth We repeat now, a. +
rain, as heretofore, that our business has
oeen with the men whom he has nnfortu-
1ately trusted with his confidence; the men
Who, we are assured-two of them at least {
-are endeavoring to make capital for 1856:
men who have thrown brands in our
midst, intending to light up bonfire, whose
would reach the White House,
t they were not permitted to be masters
here. It's against these men that we have
cautioned the President; we know them to
je filed Nth deceit, dishonesty, and ouerqoag-
mo Nth ambition, sOhich they are determined
d qratity nolsns poEens. We shall continue
our warnings, 10 hope that they may eventu-
ally and seasonably meet the ear Of Presi-
dent Pierce: hoping most sincerely and fer
ventlY, that our prayers, and those Of the
entire National Democracy Of the great
State Of New York. may be effectual in ar
resting the evils which we discover ahead,
and IN preventing Marcy and bis accom-
olices from perfecting the unhalloWed de-
signs and purposes they had n view long
before entering the National Cabinet. New
I ork has spoken; will she not be heard?
