The Tribune and Mr. Webster.

! Mr.. Webster authorizes us to say that
the article in the last Tribune. referring
to himself contains several untruths; but
the only one he feels it worth while to
deny. is that which accuses him of acting
in an ungentlemanly manner by answer
ing with torrent of abuse, when asked
to define his position. This he utterly
denies, as nothing fell from him in the
conversation alluded to, which in the re-
hottest degree warranted any such asser-
ton. Mr.. Webster has no objection to
any fair (orif any person chooses affair
criticism of his opinions and position, but
when accused of ungentlemanly conduct.
he finds it difficult to bear it so patiently
And while on the subject, let US say
word or two more on our own hook. We
think our neighbors show little more
captiousness in the case of Mr.. Webster
than is warranted by all the circumstan-
ces. The Republican party is a ner
party. 1t has grown from an exigency
recently arisen, and is supposed to be
composed of men from all the old parties.
1t does seem to us that coming together
as we all do. strangers in a manner to
each other, all equally nelr and yo1tag in
the faith. it is somewhat of an assump-
ton to say the least, after regularly
constituted convention Of the party has
endorsed a man as worthy Of support, for
some individuol of the party to eXclaim,
stand off, for we are holer than thou"
Mr.. Webster voted for Mr.. Pierce, and
did endorse the Baltimore Platform, and
the editors of the Tribune voted for Gen.
Scott and also endorsed the Baltimore
Platform. SO far as our positive knowl-
edge goes, since the Democracy have Vi
olated that platform, and clearly demon
strated that instead of considering the
slavery question settled, hey intend to
do all in their power to propagate slavery,
Mr.. Webster has done and said as much
for the Republican sentiment and princi-
pie as have the editors of the Tribune
done for it since the defeat Of Scott. Mr..
Webster and some others on the ticket.
were by no means our first choice for the
offices to which they have been nomina-
ted. but we made up our minds from the
first that it was quite possible the CON
vention would not in all instances consult
our preferences, and we determined to
yield accordingly. We know no more
about the sentiments of several other of
the candidates. than we do about Mr.
Webster's, but we suppose the conyen-
ton that nominated them did, and we
suggest to the Tribune whether it would
be any more than its duty, or any less
than fair dealing and good sense would
dictate, if it puts up the names of any of
the candidates, to put them all up until
they fail to comply with the extra and
somewhat unusual tests proposed by the
viii it not be time enough
after such failure, to repudiate them?

The Telegraph says that the Office OF
Senator is the only one which has connec-
ton with the principles of the parity
henoShd Democrat.
Not exactly. We said the office of Sc
nator was the only one before that Con-
rention which had direct or intimate con-
nection with the principles Of the party.
That thisis precisely to say that the ba-
lance of the ticket was not nominated on
principle" is an inference by no means
intended and we think by no means jus
titled. All we intended to say, was, that
it was hardly worth while to leopard
those officers whose duties are intimately
connected with principle, by wranglng
over little shades of difference of opinion
with referencr to those officers whose du-
ties were not so connected. Does the
Democrat understand?
