The two articles which follow taken from localities
far distant from each other, but they breathe the same
democratic spirit and il is for that reason that we ofng

President Pierce has appointed eesoiIes to office, and
calls upon the southern people to sympahze with the
New York hunkers, who have contributed their full
shaenot intentionally, we admo the election of
William H. Seward 10 the Senate. The following ex-
tract from bunker paper the Detroit Free Press. and
the organ OF Lewis Cass, will throw some light on the
subject:
"Those, (says the Free Press "who have charged the
administration with having affiliated with iree-soers. and

The Free Press has glven the truth OF the matter in
few words. The whole object o. the administration has
been 10 appoint platform democrats 10 Office and to ex-
ciuds free solers, whether OF the Buffalo Seward
stripe. The Register knows that democrats have been
removed from Office in Massachusetts, by telegraph be-
they formed coalitions with soilers it knows
that MIR Guthrie wrote 10 Mr. Bronson that he was to
appoint such men, and such only. stood fairly and
squarely on the Baltimore resolutions and that be
buked him when he informed him that he had appointed
free solsrs BY telling him be ought to have laid their
names before him. and that he would have rejected
them and that, moreover, he informed MIR. Bronson
that this conduct was of ITSELF sufficient require
his removal. The Register also knows that Mr.. Cnsh.

than the course pursued by MIR. Guthrie We published
Mr. Cushings letter in last, but again present the
