fit were true that this journal had rec ived
fifty thousand dollars, or any other sum, for
supporting General Pierce during the last Pre-
sidential canvass-if it were true that the wing
or any other party had paid money to its pro-
prietor to induce it. afterwards, to assail the
Cabinet-if it were true that George Law had
purchased our opinions for fifty or hundred
thousand dollars-if it were true that w. II.
Seward wrote for the HERALD, or that James
office under the administration-we are totally
at loss to discover wha. purpose these va
rious facts would serve in the pending political
controversy. Were the country called upon to
sit in judgment upon the HERALD, and were its
editor formally arragned at the bar of public
opinion, similar charges and imputations would
be pertinent and opportune. But as-we say
it with due respect-it is the administration,
and not the HERALD, which stands in the dock,
we must formally object to the abduction Of
irrelevant testimony, and confne the prisoners
counsel strictly to the record. General Pierce's
advisers must defend themselves on their own
merits. IF they have done wrong, it will be a
sheer waste of their time to set out on wild
goose chase after our motives in bringing the
wrong to light. When those motives shall
have been impugned by competent authority,
we may possibly resolve to explain them.
Until then we can only regard illusions to the
point as subterfuges designed to divert public
attention from the administration, and to make
us the prominent figure in the battle-an no
nor which, for the present, we beg to decline.
The very clumsness of the device shows the
poverty Of the cause we assail. We charge the
Administration with open treachery to the peo-
pie. We assert that General Pierce was elected
wholly and entirely on Union (" ticket-that
his overwhelming majority was altogether due
to the position Of hostility in which he stood
towards every disunionist faction And We
add, that no sooner had the victory been won
than all this was forgotten; disunionists were
summoned to Washington and the Cabinet
portioned out the spoils among the very fac
lions whose collective existence had we'll nigh
been destroyed by General Pierce's triumph.
This we call treachery, base. unprincipled
mockery of the wel-known and loudly ex-
pressed wishes of the people And when the
defenders Of the Cabinet, instead of attempting
TO dispute that the facts are so, or to argue that
such conduct is not base, unprincipled, and
treacberous sneakingly raise up side issue
about our motives or our honesty or our position,
We say that resort to such contemplate argu

sparing Of noise that, if it had been possible to
defend the Administration on its own merits,
the work would have been left undone: we
may safely take it for granted that in some
quarters at least. our character would have
been untouched so long as that Of the Admin
istration was susceptible of defence. 1t was
only when Cushing, Marcy, and Davis were
sunk beneath all hope of salvation that their
friends bethought themselves of abusing the
HERALD.
What particular results may flow from such
course among the public, the curious may
possibly take the trouble to ascertain; for our
selves, We must postpone the inquiry until
many other questions of more direct and prac-
tical moment have been thoroughly investi-
gated and solved. We need hardly repeat that
we decline the side issue offered us. Our cha
racter will keep until the cabinet is dismissed.
1t is in fact of far too small Importance in COM
parison with the weighty interests at stake
elsewhere to merit special attention at this
crisis.
While the awful changes which were averted
by the genius and patriotism Of Clay in 1850
are again overhanging the country-while all
the practical fruit Of the glorious campaign and
election Of 1852 is being counteracted by the
leebleness and imbecility Of the men it raised
to power-while the lesson then taught by the
citizens at large to professional politicians is
being openly derided and contemned while
men high in Office unblushngly tell us that
they recognize no other political gospel than
the trumpery platform erected last year by
Few sordid politicians at Baltimore, while a
premium is placed on treason, of whatever hue
or shade, and the only work for which the adj
ministration evinces any aptitude is the parti-
ton Of the public plumber among the only
classes of men who ought never to have re-
ceived the smallest sign Of favor from govern
ment-when all this is going on at our doors,
and both foreigners and natives gaze with won
der at the astounding course of government
from which SO much was expected, a public
journal can find occupation enough without
STOPPING to defend itself in reply to the silly
SANDERS of obscure rivals.

MARCY ON OUR FOREIGN AFFAIRs--It is a
rather fortunate thing that our Secretary OF
State has had so many opportunities of showing
how he interprets the Presidents Inaugural
Fortunately-we mean for the country-as
tending to remove all doubt and uncertainty
with respect to Mr.. Marcys views and opin.
ions and rather unfortunately for Mr. Marcy,
as proving pretty conclusively that, as in the
matter OF the appointments, political capital is
all he seeks to make out of the distresses of his
countrymen.
In the Koszta. case, for instance, Commander
Ingraham did all that was required. He saved
Koszta; all that was expected of the home gov
eminent was decent approval Of his conduct
But Marcy could not spare the opportunity of
gaining little popularity, nor resign all the
glory Of that event to its rightful claimant. Ac-
cordingly. with the aid of Websters previous
despatch, the Kos1a letter is penned; and for
ehort while. in few mems minds, Mr.. Marcy
looms out patriot Of the purest water.
But note the contrast. Three American citi
zens are now imprisoned in Cuba, no charge
having ever been brought against them, and no
opportunity having ever been afforded them Of
disproving the suspicious under which they are
detained, Their case was laid before Mr.. Marcy
months ago, but the condition Of the three
poor fellows is yet precisely what it was. We
have never heard, in fact, that any attempt has
been made to inquire into or mitigate their
wrongs. The reason is simple. They are mere
sailors and no capital could possibly be made
out of their release.
Again, Captain Gibson asserts that he has
been shamefully treated by the Dutch authori-
ties in Sumatra. Capt. Gibson is unknown. and
knocks in vain at the Secretary's door. But
the independent press came to hear of his case
and gave it publicity in other words, it be-
comes available for political capital We hear
Immediately that Capt. Gibson has been sent
for-that Marcy will ask for slOOOOO-that all
Will be arranged, &c. Marcy rises in the poll
teal barometer. Weeks elapse; nothing done
Gibson forgotten. Marcy has doubts whe-
ther he be a man "worth protecting" The
press solves the problem with laundering
affirmation. Quick as thought Gibson is sent
for; Marcy is as patriotic as ever. Gibson
shall have his money, capital and interest.
Belmont shall lie written TO that dag. Gibson
is tickled on the subject Of diplomatic mission;
and while thus amused. is gently advised to
give Marcy q certificate Of character No CON-
pulsion, Of course, only mild suggestion.
Poor Gibson with 100000, an honorable issue
out Of his difficulties and perhaps diplomatic
mission. on the one side, and blank vision of
poverty and contempt on the other-swallows
satisfied now that the man . not worth protect
ing" has certified to his character; and the
Union, with the other government organs, join
in aan of triumph at the noble patriotism
and discrimination Of the Secretary.
