have been engaged in struggle to emAncipate our
Municipal rule from tho demonstrably malevolont
control Of Natonsl politics. fall half Of those
enlisted in this movement supported Dir. Buchanan
for President and have hitherto sustained the pol
icy Of bis Administration. They were among bis
prominent hackers at Cincinnati, and contributed
largely to the gigantic fund which carried the o.
toter election in PeDnsyvabis and thus sesured bis
elevation. They were never apprised anti this Fall
TIA; they must cease TO be Municipal RefOrmers or
be cut off from the Democratic church. After the
battle had been fairly joined and an honest and up
right Democrat, an early and jealous supporter Of
Mr. Buchanan, had been selected as the ralying.
point of the Refo: mets the President did write to
Mr.. Richard Schell, in effect commanding the
Federal Office holders to support Wood for Mayor
under pain of incurring his sore di,peasure. But
many OF these Office holders were already fully
committed to the effort for Reform, and could
not now have drawn back without branding
themselves towards and slaves. Some of
them did thereon resolve to "knife Wood instead
of openly ard manfally opposing him; and, if Mr..
Buchanan sees ft to remove these, We have few
tears to shed over their fate. Had they exercised
freeu ans right with a freemans frankness, they
would have lad TIE sympathy and hearty approval
Of the whole community, as Mr.. McKeon has. Ho
