Character Of the PresideUt,

The Washington correspondent of the New
York Courier and Enquirer, thus graphically
sketches the character of President Pierce
The great defect of the Presidents character Is
his vasciation and in6rmity of purpose. He Is the
instrument Of the strongest will which approaches
him. His resolutions yield to opportunities, en-
treaties, and menaces He gave Grund written
order the Secretary Of State for the consulsh'p
at Marseiles. The Virginia aud Pennsylvania dele,
gates In Congress protested, and.the appointment
was refused. Thus was prevented the scandal Of
foreigner carving about the dshonored order OF
the President of the United States for paitry
Office. The President promised Colonel Wilcox,
son-in-law Of Major Donelson the mission TO Chilli.
The Ohio delegation made united demand for II,
and the promise TO Wilcox was repudiated. Hence
Donelson perambulates the country, proclaiming
the treachery Of Pierce.
The President promised Mcdonald, of Maine,
the Office of the 9th Auditor in return for his vote
for the Nebraska bill When the time for fulfilling
the promise arrived General Pierce asked the per-
mission of Mcdonald to tender the appointment to
Judge Minor, the law partner Of the former, in ex.
pectaton that Judge M. would decline 1t. He ac-
cepted it, to the dsmay of the President; and IL
became necessary to pay Mcdonald with the su-
perintendence of petty cust0m-house. In the
same way he at first rejected the infamous scheme
OF repudiating the Missouri Compromise, but yield
ed TO repeated deputations of insolent advocates
Of the measure while protesting against the treach-
cry and dishonor of which he was made the instru-
ment Such man is not fit 70 be President. In
fact, he cannot be President, because, though the
nominal occupant of the place, all the real power
which It Is bis duty to exercise dcvolves upon
other men, not responsible to the country.
