The Softs are no more power. Heneeforth we

One word in parting as to the sort of warfare by
which the extnguhed faction made its last desperate
struggle for power After having stained themselves
with the most elaring breach of openly Plghed faith
respecting the prompt completion of our Canals,
il required no ordinary assurance in the leaders
to make those Canals the subject Of their harsngues on
Il had "a A
matter of policy to put the Barnburner orators OF As
forward at all in this crisis when prudence seemed to
dictate that these should be kept in the background aud
the Shepherds and Champins nterpOsed between them
and the public gaze but when such marked men as
Prince John and Martin Grover were sent into Tam
many Hall TO persuade genuine Hunkers to follow
them rather than Dickinson aud OConor, it was
Tapale blunder on their part 10 represent az
tley did, the Wings and the Hards as conspirng
to rob the State Of the leu Millions about
to be expended the completion OF the Canals and
the Adsmantine bolt contrived expressly to facil
tate this gigantic robbery. Such sweeping imputatons
arouse resentment but do seryice-their grossness
divess them Of al power and effect. So, when John
Van Buren, broadly intmated that it was necessary for
him TO stand well with the North in order to be able to
help the Scrh the preposterousness OF Johns attempt
ing to aid the South and the South looking to him for sup
port made the thing only terabe joke though less
likely to excite mirth than indignation in those to
whom il was addressed But what shall we say of an
ex.Member of Congress and candidate for Attorney
General coming down from Alegany to Tammany in
order to get off the resstless and dguifed wtticism
involved in calling the Nationals ALTERNATIVES When
party is reduced to such desperate extremites for
humor it is surely time it were shOveled under, with
as much deeorous haste and as little OdOr possible
