"Despite all have " said and sung" against
Mr. Polk. and there are certainly &EesI neiional
points Of policy eaough in all conscience on which
we differ, aud on which to carry on the war, tmusr
say with all sincerity that there is much about the
man 10 be applauded. He has certainly dep0rled

tyrdom In the cause and protesting to be patriots
desirous Of serving their country in any situation

Washington Interference with that which belongs
10 the State. There is annother great cause of
graduation, and for which Mr.. Polk deserves the
thanks of every respectable man. 4 alIude to the
