The “rwwlr" Again.
The following ■l**--plni atjlrtr nt n “ —
to operate against the electifljgof Cdl v,
appear* in the Van Buren InteOiftnrer: $
“ ^'e are uot prepared fot4 anti will net submit
to the fiat gone teeth from tj*> tfc-l«#unns.«f
the Banner, that thoaa who support** i*n-iand
or opp'wt'd Col. Sevier, or who do not wear the
collar of the •family' are to be erttahol."
No such • fori'' ha* been pat forth by the Ban
ner, anti we deny that we ever entertained any
such sentiment. The Editor can find no proof for
his asaertion, and if he were not dis|>o*cd to be
uujast to us, he would acknowledge that through
the columns of the Banner we have disclaimed any
such feeling, and that »o recently in reply to the
Gazette and Democrat, that he could not have lust
right of it.
We have at no time made an attempt to revive
irritating and bye-gone issues, to deny honesty of
purport to ail Democrats who differed with us in
opinion or that those should l«e ostracised who did
not agree with us in reference to rncu. And this
the Editor .should know as well as any who read
otir paper. But to represent us fairly, was uot
the policy of the Intelligencer. We understand
his design and there are few who will not sec
! that this statement is a flunaey pteteat for In* op
position !o Cod. Johnson, and the disorganizing ef
forts he is everting to divert a portion of Demo
cratic strength from the nominee of the Conven
tion. In this we have reason to believe he will
1 entirely fail. All good Democrats will indignant
ly condemn the course he has taken and means to
| which he resorts to place us in a fa Ire position be
■ fore the people. But not content to renew, if pos
sible, the dissensions which hat- agitated the
! party iu this State, he shouts out agaiu the old
tvutn out cry of “family” vexed issues aie again
started, and that in the eiciMReut his delinquen
cies and wrongs to tin- parly to which he professes
j to beloug, may escape notice nod rebuke. “The
I family” ! wliat a commentary upon the bitterness
j and selfishness that cling to disappointed aspirants.
Has the Editor forgotten that the heads of this
| • iauul)” have long ago passed to a reaim where
: no invective, no persecution can reach them, cm!
I does he not know that not a ilrerenJant or r •nsx
tan to the remotest lm$fi oj *i'ht r Hen;nmin Johnson
■ .fwkfjsc //. Sevier, now halls an o%ce in (his
State f How senseless then the aliusion. But
i this :s not enough, to satisfy tire vindictive and
insatiable mow of th.- Van Buren Intelligencer,
they iniisl notouiy go out of oflttc-, but must never
in- penni'ted again to go in ’ His course toward
i Robert W. .’obnaon, would warrant the belief that
such is the principle Air which he is contending.
Johnson is th only member of the “family” who
now seeks the distinction of office, and not at this
itinn because h- ! sncit f. bus. because tlie Deui>
; cracv t-garding him with i-.'b and c-.utid< ure “as
i the man the c.ust have placed him before the
people a! th, ,r ci.-ore- for Represent*! :n t' -n
grvss. We fisve no fear that the into'c.aut spirit
thus c\i:, -J by the Intelligencer exists with any
| true nr rich minded man of the party, and what
(ever un'air issues that paper may start t<> the in
jury of J orison, wo have tie fullest reliance in
tiie ability of the people promptly to discover aud
condemn them.
The 11 Whig” appears to be very inui^distress
ed because the iaie Deiu icratte Convention did
’ n-'t adopt a platform, and the Whig says, it was a
v o’ati n ■ f ' tme-hon red faith, usage and dis ip.
line of the democratic party.” Waving oiu sur
prise that such a venomous sheet should become
* the advocate or be concerned about the ■* time
honorc 1 taith” of our party, and utterly rejecting
aid from such a quarter, yet to reasonably relieve
that distress, we will only remark, as was said m
the Convention; that the denioers'ic party now,
stands a* it ever has stood, on the same republican
platform, erected in the data ol Jefferson; a plat
form requiring no periodical reconstruction; that
we ate now battling for the same ” time honored
faith,” which we contend -' for m the days of Jef
ferson, aiul against the same unprincipled ami
reckless party, then known as federalists ami it .w
• as whip, and who after having literally worn out
i and lies-.< rated every name, tt»-> ever assumed, an
» .nr t > veute «-n any tbs si ;me l ie odious
ness of their doctrines. Hc-ncc the v are endeavor
mg to appropr:ate m thetnselvra the name of the
Union i. rt>, but w ithout success, for the srnjvos
1 ture is ioo bare faced to do any damage. They
are federalists and Whigs stilt* utterly destitute of
political principles as they are, and lighting only
for the spoils of office, they really ought to put
j forward a platform every time they hold a meeting
or Convention, so that we may know what panic
1 ular invasions of the r.,l;ts of the people «ri u
! >"t, and as they leave tie. m feu hub;,, Capl. l‘r s.

r there may lie a necessity for applying the choking
' otr process som, where, they may perils;* holds
j convention to settle differences in their ranks and
i if so, we d > not doubt they will n >: neglect to put
f irward a hyi>ocmical platform to aid their attempt
' to steal tulo power by deception and trickery as
heretofore. Any other course w , ild not be ,n

wh <se wa’oR nr» no* naygat* 1 by steam- . an !
scarcely a sea whose waves are not plough ! by
s'- arnships. The dominion of steam is so rapidly
widening that in a few >•: art more the globe will
be constantly circumnavigated by g-gantic steam
iesscls.
But though steam » so rapidly taking the phiz

nr plut ultra of motive pow. r. Another half . :i
turv will see steam rap.dlv declining as a motive
j>- .w**r,' and i_~- tirm as rapidly taking i
place. Of the truth of thts propheti- declaration,
we have better evidence than that which Robert
Pulton was able to ndvsn e nearly half a • ntury
ago. Regarding the progress of steam navigation.—
IlobenTulton thought he had almost perforate ! -

lludsou, at tin rate of tkrrr mile* an hour; and
i upon such a wonderful a t. - vement he v* ntured
to predict t!;at at! of oar rivers would soon b*
navigated by oeamVvats. His antic :pat;ons hay
long since been more I ban realiz»*d.
What, then, may we not anticipate for the loco
