MOTLEY AND SEWARD.

The eontras,ed positions in which ]
Lothrop Motley and VIM. Il. Seward enc
themselves reminds US again that "Time
at last sets all things even" As much
as the worthier classes of American cit
liens deplored Mr. Stewards recreancy

ance of, or, perhaps, his ori gination of,
Jobnson's " Policy" they were unpre-
pared for his amazing and contemplate
performances which ended by Mr.. Mot
ley's resignation of the position of Min
i,ter at the Austrian Court. We all
remember, but too well, tine performan-
ces of McCracken, the spy. who, in ac-
cordance with programme laid ont for
him by his employers, reported to the
willing ears of Seward and johnson
that Motley had demeaned himself by
rronouncing against the AMERICAN char
scter and violated the rules of diplo
,natic behavior ov denouncing the Pres
ident and stigmatising Seward rs a de-
PRAYED old ma2.. We remember, too,
the correspondence which followed this
revelation the virtuously indignant
McCracken. 81 am told" said the
Secretary, =" that you do not pretend to
conceal your disgust, as You style it, at
he Presidents whole conduct, that you
despise American democracy and loudly
proclaim that an Epglishman Is the
model of human perfection. l under
stand also that you say that an-hope
lessly degraded. Your denial or con-
arm ,tion of these reports is requested.
AN, sir, your obedient se1:ant, VIM.
II. Seward" We also remember Mr.,
Ao.ley's calm, dignifed reply which
-as to the effect that he had never
been guilty of the acts and expressions
with which be was charged that he
took occasion to Say of himself that
- A more fe.veut believer in Am erica
Democracy than am, does not exist IN
the world ~ and that he forthwith re,
signed his office. The times havewo
derfully changed since those remarkable |
transactions; and whilst we see the
White House ocarRied hylhs man VIII ON
Andrew johnson sought to disgrace for
to become bis tool, we see the
most important American mission filled
by man whose high character was
sought as sacrifice to the malignant
ambition Of President and Secretary
Of State who conspired to build up for
iemselves a eontinuance of power upon
he ruins of loyalty and the shattered
fragments of a Republics best and
highest interests. Mr.. Motley has gone
o enter upon the high and responsible

help ourselves.
| We Of Carson should be much in

Can be built with comparatively little

Some canvassing of the subject by par
