Oj*TJio Post office Clerk at Washington, who has recently been detected in robbing the mails, is a Fed eral Whig, appointed by a Democratic Post Mastor, to the ; exclusion of competent nnd honest members ofour own party. This is rather a singular way of “backing one's friends,” it musl.be confessed. What renders this appointment tlio. morc cxccp. lionable, is the fact of his having conic into posses sion of a handsome fortune,by way of a rich legacy. Hundreds of poor Democrats would have gladly re ceived the Appointment thus bestowed upon-an un worthy Federal opponent, by a Democratic Post Master.

It is a popular error, says the Lancaster InteKi. gcnccr, to suppose that the. Federalists, when they make promises, have any. idea of fulfilling them. It is a popular error (o suppose that they will ever legislate, if in power, to promote the interests of tho poor man % when their legislators and chief men ore always chosen from among that class \yhoso Interest it is to benefit themselves—that is, the lordly Manu facturer and Iron-master. It is a popular error to suppose that Gen. Irvin even thought of the laborer and poor workingman, for whom the federalists toy ho Ims such groat love, when ho voted for the famous BANKRUPT XiAW I It is a popular error to suppose that Utter to bo a forgery, because a. certain editor with a most clastic conscience, said it was not genuine. It Is a popular error to suppose that tho federalists remain silent about our worthy candidate, fur Cover nor, honett Frank Shurik, from a spirit of forbearance.
