Condition of the Federal Parly. > Our opponent s are at present in a most delight ful state of dissonance, if \ve {are to judge from the tone of their leading presses. But we cannot help thinking, th it there is a deep-laid scheme, in all this apparent jarring, to impose upon the peo ple. They havj always enjoyed, from the earliest period of their History, the means of effecting a thorough organization; and they can act with much more promptitude than we can. They know! this j end, therefore, we think they are only prepa ring the way, wider these appearances of dissen sion, for a concentrated movement, entirely differ-' ent from that a> which they profess to be aiming. Indeed, one of their organs, (who certainly has the capacity fore ‘arming into some of their secrets,) has boldly said, that the movements so ostenta tiously made by the friends of Mr. Clay, are only 'intended to prec?de the transfer of the entire Fed-1 era! parry to th i support ol Gen: Taylor. This simple tvow-al, would not have beenTuffi cient to satisfy us, that they design to play a deep • game—3uch as theirdistinguished leader was once , famous at,—in which there is an expression o , going it bliniT! Intimations, of a S'milar char acter, have apjieared in many of the Federal prints;—they contend lor a no party candidate find fault with ten. Taylor for haring written toof . much; and will Mr Clay for having gone too far . in denouncing the war—(t/n's only in one or States) —at, d would have their candidate aay nothing about h s opinions; but leave to the Peo-I - {tie the task of liuding them out, or believing ol them, as they pleuse. They know that the prin ciples of Fedenlism, called by whatever name they may be, arc odious to the mass of the Peo ple; and they trust, Iherefere, practice some sys tern of deceptio i, it they can hope, to succoed. Mr. C|ay, we know, is lidly committed, on all j - points; and they know that he has been so often i defeated, —that he is so odious in the eyes of the masses—that hi can never be elected; and they know, too, that le is the veritable “ embodiment'' of their rial principles. In all honor, then, (and there is some ho for even among rogues.) they are bound to make a show of supporting him, before their Convention shall be held, that they may the more easily tin I a way by which to escape a jfourtk'defeat, under his standard. i Our ideas on this subject bare been more fully! confirmed, by reading the articles by the editor oil the. New York 1 libune, for some time past, than from any thing coming from any other quarter. ( From one of these we make ibe extract given be-! low. Gbzclt is one of the mosi envenomed op-j ponents of the rren and measures of the Demo-j erotic party, to he lound in the ifniied States; and! there is nothing belonging to Whiggery, which he! Jdoes not swallow at once. He is not deficient in knowledge of political and historical facts; andi •when we find sich a man as this, coming boldly forward, to sustain a thrice defeated chieftain, we are necessarily led to question the sincerity of the act; He regards nothing, peihaps, as much, as the success .oplhe Federal parly ; and it is cer tainly impossible for him lo see any thing, in the illimitable future, by which le can vouchsafe any thing hut defeat, under the man, for whom be is so warmly contending. r, “Who Is there whom the uhigs universally re *«rd with equal confidence and admiration as they do Mr. Clay? Who is (here for whom they are prepared to make equal exertions and sacrifi ces! Does any one know any « hig votes which Mr. Clay cannot abtain ? And if he would he defeated only because there are not whig voles e 'nough to elect him, ought we to reek”to carry anybody else? 1 “But admit, for argument's sake, that there are inveterate prejudices against Mr. Clay, to which spate other. Whig would not he obnoxious—that a considerable number of voters will not vote lor . him, who could yet be influenced to vote for some other Whig, and thus insure success instead of de feat—we are yet to see the evidence that General Taylor is the man to supplant him. Here is a veiy important point nimbly slid over by the spec ulatore in Taylorism. Say that we must giqe ui. Mr. Clay, and does it follow that we must turn on all. Statesmanship whatever? Shall we pass hy the giant intellect and ripe experience of Webster, the rare Executive talent and lolty .purity of M Lean, the moral heroism and stirring eloquence of Corwinj the lucid analysis and vigor °®» rhetoric Of Clayton, to choose our leader from the, camp which from youth has been his home, and accept his undoubted ability ,to set a squad! ron in the field Or breast a charge ol bayonets as proof positive of his fitness to preside over Cabi nets and guide the destinies of Nations ? Let us have the proof of Gen. Taylor’s capacity to bring victory to the standard; not of anembattled Army, but of an enlightened and reflecting party.” Ocb. Hailmau.

Labor creates’every thing.— Labor owns every thing. God has not njade a mistake in giving men the passion or the faculty of acquisitiveness. The possession of the faculty is -the justification of its exercise. Its exercise implies the right ot appropriuth,'dr the right of individual property. . * ; Labor is a trinity It implies three productive forces.

[The; only question to be settled is this: “What ielthe law of distributive justice?

Individual proper ty is demanded as ah external expression ohtbese lour social sentiments. The rights of skill are based on the intellectual passions of the soul,-viz: causality, comparison: and ideality, or in other words, synthesis, analysis and observation—or, to use the language of the] School, Composilisra, Cabalism, and Altematism. I he se three intellectual faculties compose the ex ecutive powers, or skill. They give direction ij industry—they render it efficient and productive, and are entitled to share in the general result. The rights of present industry, |abor from day to day, are based upon the sensitive attractions j which express themselves through -th e organs of | ta*te, smell, touch, sight, and hearing The hands labor, that the sense of taste may preside o«r the kingdom of flavors; smell over the aromal sphere; touch is graliliedpn the realization of' outward com fort and luxury in our surroundings j sight in the enjoyment of harmonies of colors and flowers, and hearing, of musical accurds. I'hey ask for an external destiny propoitional to their innate wonts. They demand the results of industry for: their' present satisfaction, and may claim ; as their own a share of its products. Upon the recognized tights of the twelve radical passions, composing the human soul, is based the law Of distributive' justice, which, in Association, givesjto past labor, oil capital, four-twelths: to executive labor, or skill thi-ee.twelfths; and to pr sent labor* five-twellths. ■whenever the nett profits of the Combined Town ship are divided.
