Col, FOrneY'S Address,

This address, written with considerable
vigor, fills eight columns of the Press,
and consequently cannot find place in
ours.
Mr.. Forney commences bya brief re-
view of the past, from the time Mr.. Bach-
anan accepted the nomination rendered
by the Cincinnati Convention up 10 the
present: he speaks of his long years OF
intimacy with Mr.. Buchanan, Of his ef-
forts during the campaign of sc in behalf
of the candidate of the Democratic party,
of the warm support he gave the Admin
istration so long as it stood on the Gin
cinnati platform; but claims that when
the President resolved to turn his back &c
his renewed pledges. and to the cove,
nants and obligations, from that very
moment every citizen was released from
obedience to the new and heretical creed
which he set up as the model of Democ,
ratio orthodoxy" As to the causes which
induced him to pronounce his famous Tar.
rytOwn speech, Mr.. Forney says.
There was an ingenuity of proscrip.
ton, a fertility of faIsehood, a reckless.
ness of persecution, which induced me
more than once to inquire in the language
of Governor Walker, whether indeed we
were living in the last year of American
Independence, or the first year OF the
American monarchyF saw the ta.esl
