EDIroR NATIONAL DEMOCRAT The late
news from the East, proving that the Ad-
ministration intend to intervene in the polit-
cal affairs of Mexico, may justly arouse a
spirit Of indignation throughout the country
The Federalists had national grounds for in
reference, and could have demanded salts
faction without compromising our national
honor. But to act the part of bigh-minded
men, is not the policy of Mr.. Buchanan and
his Cabinet; hence Mr.. Forsyth was super
ceded by Mr.. McLane, and we were placed
in situation that merits the term disgrace
full If Mr.. Forsyth obeyed instructions, by
recognizing Miramon, Mr.. McLane must he
exercising "crawfish" diplomacy, 10y recog-
uizing Jaurez. Our trimming Administra.
tion cannot be right on both sides. To un-
derstand why this ground and lofty tum6ling
became necessary, We must look at the mo-
tive The Miramon party were willing that
we should establish a protectorate over Mex
leo; but this would be of no pecuniary ad
vantage to the pets of Mr.. Buchanan; hence
Mr.. Forsyth gave way to Mr. McLanc and
Il herd of spectators. Theft had TO hold its
hands when there was no more to steal from
the public treasury; but our national credit
was valuable Mr.. Buchanan complained
that he could not enforce our claims on Cuba
but he finds no difficulty in using public
means to secure the interests Of his friends in
Mexico. They havelarge grants from Jaurez,
and to protect said grants our navy is ordered
to the Gulf There must be an end to such
knayery /; and have no doubt the people of
California will administer rebuke that will
be remembered. The spirit of resistance to
chicanery and fraud is inherent in the heart
of man, and time will develop the fact to the
vain and supercilious "chiyalry."
Ben. Washington, the Collector, has again
rushed into print Animated by "potations
deep" of Lecomptonism, he endeayors to
lift the dcfunct carcass of Federalism out of
the slough where it has been cast 10y an out
ragged people. Poor fellow, he may blow up
soap-bubbles, but his days are numbered.
The Lecomps were forewarncd, at the late
primary election, that white men were not
born slaves-that holding Office does not pre-
clude personal freedom and liberty of opin-
ion That men in official positions should
rise superior to the dctation of Federalism,
ought not to surprise anybody; but free ex-
preston is offensive to the petticoat govern
ment Of Mr.. Buchanan.
Gov. Weller has h.ld office so long that he
deems it hardship to be turned off. DR..
GWin insists on the hereditary right to hold
Office but all the rest must expect to be rota-
ted. Popular Sovereignty will shake Gwin
out of his boots; but the old Lime Pointer
can fall back on his real estate, although it
would grIeve him to let 90 his grip on the
treasury
