Those who eiitcnaiii tiopes ihat the cxcis

political life know him tn be cven an ultra,

tvilhout proving oyer saugCiinary. The op

wc scc already that thcgullotiiic hasdropred

scii, such is tho procliviiy of polilical morali
ty at the prcsent time, that Mr. Polk could
hardly prcvcnt the country from cnjoying ths
benefiis ofthe Jacksonian policy of expelling
from office e-cry man who would not vote
with the party. The most stubborn virtua
could hardly rcsist the importuuities of the
hungry hordc of ofiicc-scckcrs who swara
through cvcry avcnue of Ihe Cnpitol, and
night and day bcscige the thrcshholiT of tbe
Excculive Mansion. An aspirant like Polk
who owcs his ascendancy to political parti
zans w ho work for pay cannot turn a deaf
car to tbnse who have applied thcir shoulders
to the whccl. To applicauts for place from
his own State it may be sccn that his gener
osity has bcen unbounded. It is iudced tha
lion's share. Extcnsive changes iu custom
house and cxeculive offices have already been
made. Thebow stricg is daily increasiug in
the thc cclcrity ofils exccutions. And let it
co on. But let not thc public be deceif ed.
All wc ask is, that Polk should bc seeu intha
true Iights and shades ofhis character.
GREEDY FOR SPOIL.
It is stated thatrs many as scventy mem-
bcrsand cx-members of Congress have ap
plied for office for thcmselves and fricnds.
This is believed to bc the key to the nnlook-
ed for Texas majority. As soon as Polk ar
rirp.l atWashinston he made it clearly un-
derstood that it was no Texas and no office.
