Strengthenmag the Whig Party by the Distribution of Offices—The Defalcations under the Polk Ad» ministration, §c., §c., §e. ‘The demoeratie party in this country, since the advent of General Jackson, has so long maintained itself in power, in spite of the follies and corrap. tions of those who have administered the govern- ment, that those who doubt the intelligence, and honesty of the mass of the people, might naturally fall into the error of believing that power is to be acquired or retaimed only by “lumbugging” the people. The whig party are predisposed to be led aetiay by the delusion—for that party comprises the greater portion of those who distrust the sense of the masses. ‘The true reason of the ascendancy of the demo- cratic party, is very evident, upon the slightest re- It is not, that those who rank as leaders of that party are superior in the arts of humbug, even admitting them to be superior, but because the measures of the party have generally eorres, ponded with its name, and have been intended to benefit the poor rather than the rich—and as the poor form the most numerous class in every com- munity, the party which has managed to idenufy itself with their interests, may, ina free country, acquire and retain power, in spite of corruptions, a litde of which would ruin the party whieh repres sents the interests and feelings of the rich and aristocratic. .

Pa- | tronage is the most dangerous imple went that a | party cen wield. Tt always does ptsitive harm to those who wield it, except in the single case, where a rogue is turned out of ollice, and an honest maa put in his place—and in that case itis necessary to prove, at least, that the man turned out was a | rogue ; not, that his successor is honest. .One of the organs of the administration in this, city, the Republic, shows some glimmering of sense in this respect. It is beginning to develope the corruptions of democratic administrations. Now, this is very well, but it is not all that is ne- cessury. The people were already ceavinced of those corruptions, or they would never have elected Generel Harrison or General Taylor. It is not snfficient to demonstrate what the people have already taken for granted. The most material point to establish is, that the present administra- tion is honest, and that fact ean be established only by their own conduct, not the conduct of their | predecessors. In the Republic of the 28th inst., you will find a terrible clutter made about another defalcation which has been diecovered—that of Nathaniel Denby, late navy agent at Marscilles, “a defaulter to the tune of $155,508 48.” There are several remarkable features about this defaleation. The first is, that the defaulter is a Virginian, an F. F. V.; the second, that the late Secretary of the Navy is euppoeed to be implicated in it. The Republic eo wsinuates, and rumor says, that large sums of money were forwarded to Denby by the Navy Department, at atime when he did not need them for the public service, and had not even atked for them. But there are other remarkable features which the Republic does not notice. The defalcation wae not discovered by the present administration, but by the last. Denby was removed from office by Mr. Polk, and the cause of his removal was no secret in the Navy Department. How is it, that the Republic has been so long in discovering the fact? When there was so much eagerness to dircover corruptions in the late administration, how comes it that this defalcation, which almost epprosches the mugnificence of Swartwout’ case,” and which 18 supposed to implicate a cabi- net minister, has beem #0 studiously concealed until nowt — f The assertion that such things are kept coneealed by democratic clerks in office, is absurd. Such clerks—as every one who understands human na- ture must admit—would be more anxious to eon- ciliate the good will of their new masters, by an- veiling coruptions, than add to the perilof their situation, by vain attempts to conceal what must ulumately be discovere F There is another remarkable feature in the arnele in the Republic, which exposes this de- cation. It says:—* Here we have alrendy de- yeleped, before the new administration haw got a fair look at the books, the cases of Moore, Col- line, and Denby, to add to the long line of their predecessors in the plunder of the treasury.” ‘ow, there eeemea to be a star missing from this catalogue. Here are only three mentioned. Is there nota fourth? It was rumored in this city some ume ago, and the rumor spread abroad, that a navy agent, named Scett, was a defaulter; and itis very certain that he was removed from office. It was rumored, at the same time, that be might, perhaps, be epared, because he was a relative of the senior editer of the Republic, and because he had « brother-in-law who was a whig member of Congrees—besides other influential whig con- neaions. . Such suppressions on the part of General Tay- jor's organ, are of evil omen to his cause. What does the great body of the people, of either party, care about the connexiens of men in office? [tis to the people at large that General Taylor is in- debted for hie own office, and not to party clique: It is true that the cratic party. has at time succeeded in saving influential men, in their owa ranks, from the doom which they i but : 7 y, it drove them from power. It is impossible for the whigs to pursue tuck a policy with any chance of eucce ‘They have not the inherent strength. The only policy which they can rely on is that of honesty—of rigid impartial justice.
