we have always given the Courier credit for shrewd
ness intelligence and tact, and taking the average,
for professional courtesy and polteness. But II it
continues such articles as the foregoing regard for
truth will compel US to a different opinion.
The Courier seeks to make distinction where there
sno difference without !" Buchanan Democracy IS
devoid Of relation to, or connection with Jackson
Demecracy Or any other sort Of Democracy we have
ever read about.
The Courier, in attempting to dodge the issue
involved in the Louisville Courers denuneiatons Of
Cen Jackson because of the emphatic expressions OF
opinion respecting Mr. Buchanan in his letter to MAJOR
william b Lewis, is guilty Standardization Nay,
worse than this It not only stultes ITSELF but con
yiets itself Its own article, without any thing but
simple explanatory comment, substantiates what We
say.
Now. what has aroused the New Orleans Courier,
and induced its editors toperpetrate such an article
as the above? Why the publication Of the following
extracts from an editorial which appeared IN the
Louisville Courier, Of the 18th ult., in the Crescent
Of last Thursday morning. Here they are:

In the editorial which accompanied the foregoing,
we stated first that the Louisville Courier is one
Of the strongest and most influential Buchanan jour
mails in the country" Afterwards we termed the
Courier tile :" principal Democratic organ in Ken
lucky {; and lastly, as quoted by our contemporary as
/ tprominent Kentucky Democratic organ"
The New Orleans Courier calls the last of these quo
tations gross misstatement' and then INDUCES in
some charitable observations for which we are duly
obliged. r.g..
4 Now, are there not strange developments here, or
strange inconsistencies? Our Customhouse street
contemporary positively declares that our remark that
/ the Louisville Courier is a prominent kentucky
Democratic organn is wholly false in letter and
SPIRIT and then, in the next paragraph, admits that
the same paper the Identical Louisville Courier
| & UNDOUBTEDLY OPPOSES FILLMORE, AND SUPPORTS
| BUCHANAN
Isn't supporting Buchanan Democracy? Isn't OPP
posing Fillmore and his principles Democracy? Ac-
cording to the above developments, from the organ
of the Democratic party of louisiana advocacy of Bu-
chanan and the Democratic platform is not Democ.
racy, and intense opposition to Fillmore and the
American platform is not Democracy! What is it
4 then, in the name of wonderment? Is it Buchanan
/ ism :? Is it Fremontsm? Is it Barnumism? Is il
squatter sovereigntyisln? Letus know speedily. Il
is not Fimores, is every intelligent in tile lant
knows. .5s=t.s7.ee H..
Admitting that the Louisville Courieris not "prom
inent Kentucky Democratic organi' the admission
does not benefit the cause of our opponents, or heI
/ our cotempories of The New Orleans Courier out o.
the pit they have dug themselves and tumbled into
Not at all. Not bit Of it. The undisputed facts
remain First, That the Louisville Courier lisa "pronl
incntr Buchanan Democratic organ Second, Tha
it has applied the most virulent and outrageou
language to Gen. Jackson-has slandered his name
H his fame, and heaped obloquy upon his private AM
4 his public character. Third, That the New Orlean
Courier, nor any other leading Democratic organ, ha
yet come to the defence Of the reputation of tn
honored chief of the Hermitage, ruthessy Stable
and mangled, by prominent" Buchanan "Demt
cratic organ'' Of the West.
If something is not done in a few days, we sha
deem it our duty to defend Gen. jackson from tl
onslaughts of the powerful Buchanan organ allude
to. We were always opposed politically to Gel
Jackson, but we ever considered him noble an
glorious man and true patriot It's shame he shou
be illuminated after he has been in his grave tent
