The " National Intelligencer" brings out as
its great and only leader of this morning an arti-
Gle not exceeding dozen lines; half Of which
consists Of good-humored paragraph from the
Washington correspondent of the New York
Evening post; )" the point of it being, that g there
report that Mr.. Buchanan enclosed one of the
recent long articles of the Union to MIR. Pack
enham, as despatch, and that he gave in at
once"


Ifthe hit be made at the length of our articles,
suspect that the g National Intelligencer' will
never intimidate Mr.. Pal1enham, or any minister,
or indeed any other person, by the length of its
own productions. They are scarcely as " briefas
the pocsy of rng"-certainly not as large as
the tailor's night-cap in Don Quixotte, five oil
which were produced before Sancho PAM l, then
governor of Barataria upon the tips of the custom
er's fingers The =" IntetIigencer's" modern pro-
ductons, Saving only its unfortunate and IFS long
winded dissertations on the Rio Bravo, the militia
ry orders to General Taylor the post office mail
to Texas, and the Oregon euestion,) remind US of
the amusing saying of one of our late accredited
agents abroad He was breakfastIng at the very
hospitable house ofa gentleman, who had every
thing else on large scale upon his table, except
the plate of butter. The host. finding his guest
playing very coy about the butter, begged him to
cut on, and not be afraid Of it. " Afraid of it, my
dear sir" said the wag, Oh no it is rather loo
small for one to be very much afraid of" IN
