, often fefiitrd tt*a*otiing< of the abler champions of
this measure. All that we shall now say ou this
head is, that, if the positions assumed in this Ad
dress be true, they arc just as applicable to the
.State governments as to the Federal. If it be
wise policy for the Federal Government to re
tect Bank notes and to require specie exclu
sively in the payment of its taxes, it cannot be
wise in the States to puisne an opposite policy : and.
the other hand, it the State governments are
content to receive thtir taxes in the notes ol specie
paying Hanks, the Federal government is not enti
tled to assume higher ground, and to claim '* exclu
sive privileges," m this respect.
And, after all, to what uses are the monies of the
federal government applied? Almost exi lusively to
the payment of the salaries of the office-holders!—
Aud why should the “ Democrats" be so anxious that
this corps of consuming locusts, who arc annually
augmenting in number, and living on the fat of the
IjiikI, shall he paid lor their labor, (which, in nine
cases out often, is but another ii.iuiu lor idleness.) in
a currency better than that which our State officers
receive—or than that which the Farmer is content to
fake for his crops, and the Mechanic for his wages?
Why are Federal office holders to be made the ob
jeets of such especial solicitude and fivoi ? Why
shall the people, who receive bank-notes in pay
ment of their debts, he compelled to pay their taxes
to the general government hi gold and silver, in or
det that the army of office-holders may have a better
currency than themselves? It this lie Ih'uvcnv »/,
tor one wc shall nevr be a Democrat! \\ e prelei
rJiai old-fashioned llepublic itiism, which regaided
the .public officer ns the servant ol the people—and
acted upon the time honoied maxim, that it is
enough that the “ servant he us his master."
The Abolition quesliou is treated, in the Ad
dress, w ith some ingenuity, and evidently with a dc
Jilcralc intention to deceive aud mislead the public.
While, to a casual reader, it seems, at a first glance,
to cover the whole Southern ground, it really goes
no farther than the Northern Anti Slavery < onvoii
lions themselves do. It asserts that the federal gov
ernment has no right to touch the question of slavery
in the States: Arthur Tappati says precisely the
same. In relation to slavery in the Distiiet of ('o
lunibia, it was veiy clear ‘hat the authors 1 t the \.|
dress, coming from differ cut quarters of the Futon
would find it mole difficult l -agree. ^ «• l it was ne
cessary lo say something on tlic ipiestion. Can it
he doubted, if John W. Jones ol \ uginia, or J. I*.
Jt iclmrdsoti of South Carolina, or J. I. Mi Kav ol
North Cmohna, could h ive had their own way, dial
they would iiave stamped an unijnahjutl negative on
the right of Congress to meddle with slavery m the
District? Hut then there w-re Messrs. Williams,
of Maine, and Hotter of Hetmsy Irani.i, and Darker
of New Voik. w ho dared not assent to that wt ipiali
tied negative—and hence they ti ll us that they “ hold
it tobeeUar. hri/un t dispute* that Congress has'no
iighl to abolish slan ay in the Distiict"—biilthev do
not stop there—then comes in the (jnalily ing phrase
—"with (itiac of abuli'hh" il in the States.” In
other words, that as < wngress have no tight, even a -
cording to the edniKsion ol the most vehement Anti
Slavery fan itic,d rrctly to touch the qucMii n ol Slave
's \ in the States, it “ is clear, bey uml dispute,” that they
have no more right to do this indirectly, Verily thi^
“ clear beyond di-pute”—not is it di-puted, so far as
wc know, by the. most fuiions Abolitionist in the
country. The Address, However, on this .subject,
we are lice to admit, goes as far as an Addiess fruin
Northern Whigs would go—and no farther. And
die best evidence ol this is, (hat no Northern W hig
paper Iras attacked the doctiin- s of tlie Address upon
tins subject—the only assault upon it that vve have
seen being made through the New Voik livening
Host, the official organ of M r. Van Huren in th.it city,
by a writer, who of the editor informs ns, is a “lead
ing Deni1 crat” residing in the iuteiim oftlie Sta'r—
but vvlm is nevertheless an Abolitionist, as the liven
ing Host itself is, thin whom indeed Win. Lloyd
(larrison is not more decided in his opinions.
W e have exceeded the space which vve intended
•to occupy when wc commenced this running com
tmentnry upon die \ddrcss of die “Republican”
members ol Congress—and, as well for want of room
toconliuue our remarks, as because a more -minute
criticism of its scvcial parts is deemed unnecessary,
we must leave the subject.—at least lor the present.
We may possibly hereafter, when vve have nothing
•of n ore importance before us, advert to some of its
lead ing arguments.
WOOING THK HANK.
While the Democratic Address to file People Oj

is useless as a fiscal agent oftlie government, Mr.
Woodbury is actually compelled to employ Mr.

( W i* slum Id like to k now Imw else he would cany

1 he same paper also gives us the following sketch
of the “great moi»V travel* hi the mountains :
“ We understand that lie arrived at the Warm

on the I ill instant, he breaklasted.il Fans’s, dined
at Callaghan's, and arrived at the While Sulpui
Spntig in the dusk of the evening, escorted the last
live n lies ot the way by upvvaids ol twenty Car

him. We learn that In; was anxious to avoid all ills

'I'll K NAVY.—The Globe’s brutal assault upon
du* officers of the Navy, w ho it says, with a true
Deniociaiic sneer, are actuated by the spirit ol
‘ cobblers and tinkers,” is provoking severe animad
version from all quarters. If, as some seem to sup
pose. (lie new .Secretary ol the Navy, Mr. Paulding,
prompted or approved of this attack upon the feelings
md the reputation of the officers of the Navy,
11 is couch will be any tiling but one of roses. What
ver m.iv be said of our gallant tars, no one will m
pi'o.it'll tln ni with servility 01 cowardice. I liej will
not he slow to resent this malignant and ruffian at
tack upon them.
Q * Is the attack upon the Navy officers hy the
Globe, the piomonitoiy symptom ofati attack upon
the Navy itself—; > the attac k upon tin* I . S. Bank
was preceded l>v cotitsc vituperation of Mr. Biddle ?
\Vc shall see. 11 it be designer! to ciush the Navy,
as another ** Monster,” Mr. .B lfcrson’s name will
doiitlrsa be good authority for the onslaught. Shall
we g-» back again to gut. boats ?
We ate told by tlie Globe that the Naval of
ficers display an avaricious spirit, in charging the
government for “ extra services.” Such a charge
comes with a pretty grace from a man who is in the
annual receipt of thousands of dollars from the pub
lic treasury, for services not half so arduous or ho
nor. ibie as those rendered hy these naval olliceis lor
less than as many hundred. And besides, even At
torney General Butler, no longct ago than last year,
charged for “extra services.” Why may not a
naval lieutenant follow so illustrious an example ?
(f r* Among other things, the Globe complains
that our N iv.il officers arc too fond of the White
Sulphur. We understand that there are only four
Lieutenants there—three of whom ate extremely
sick, and the fourth has just returned from an ardu
ous and perilous service. It is thus that the Govern
ment joitrn.il slanders the brave defenders of their
country.
(jy=* “Harry Bluff," in the Richmond Whig, is
raking the Globe, on the affairs ol tlie Navy, fore
and aft. Harry charges that the very abuses com
plained of by the Globe, as existing in the Navy, are
the fruits of the mismanagement and favoritism dis
played at Washington—such as permitting com
manders of fiigates to select their own lieutenants,
|,y which favorite juniors arc employed while older
lieutenants remain idle on shore conferring
the command of squadrons on pel lieutenants, while
captains 4»nd masters commandant seek in vain for
employment ; and promoting parasites above the
heads of deserving officers. As an instance of the
latter, lie says: “ Look over the promotions ol last
year, and you will there find the name of an officer
who has but one companion or associate in the Navy.
Notoriously immoral ; celebrated as a black leg,
the records of the court of Norfolk show that lie lias
| taken the benefit ol the gambling act ; and n violent
politician, the records of the Department show that
hehas not been at sea for fifteen y,e.:r* ! el the

should he corruptThe Hlube will find, before u
is done with this controversy, that it “ missed the li
Cine when it attacked this gall »nt branch ol tlie na
Mon il service. I hey air not men to he put down
b> haul words, or by hard blows either.
