NJ Il does seem to Us that even the Posts
notorious ignorance OF what is going on at
around il cannot shield the author Of the above
paragraph from the imputation of something
worse than selfrghteeusness. Just look al GER
tain undeniable facts:


i. James Il. Polk has been publicly supported
in Pennsylvania, New-Jersey, aud other lam
sections as an advocate of the Protective Policy
and even as supporter OF the present iafV.-
In South Carolina, Georgia, and throughout the
entire South, he has been openly, undeniaoy
commended as hostile to the Protective Policy
and to the present Tariff. He has been courte'
ously, earnestly requested by divers most re,
spectacle bodies of his fellow-ciiizens TO oiSPtl
ths fog on this subject, and say explicitly whe!h'
Ell be is the one thing or the other. linus 'ie-
qrently appealed to, he has maintained through
out profound silence, leaving his partssns 10
commend him as Tariff man at the North and
as Free Trader in the South. Ihe fos''
for example, supports him as Free Tracer,
the Pennsylvania, the Troy Budget, Amefi-
can Sentinel &c. as an advocate Of Protection -
PENNSYLVANIA has voted for him on the under
standing that he is for Protection; South Caro-
lima, Alabama and Mississippi, for an exactly
contrary reason. Yet the Post rejoicesn the
result of our Presidential Election "because it
REDUCES and Furnishes the cdypoeritieal profession
Of different doctrines for different ATTITUDES Of
the country" May this virtuous exultation
prove Delphic Oracle!


On the Texas Question, the course of the
Posts party has teen less strikingly uncandid.
But, while Mr. Polk has been generally regarded
as committed to Annexation in some form, there
was great care taken to render his position On
that question as vague and uncertain as possible.
At the South, it would seem to be understood
that Mr.. Polk sin favor of acquiring Texas I'M
mediately, at whatever cost and hazard may be
indispensable. In the North generally, we know
that very different impression is quite common
if not general. The Post has certainly inculca-
ted differen! doctrine on this subject from that
of its co. partisans below Mason & Di1on's. We
have been met all over this and other States with
assertions that Mr.. Polk was not in favor of ac-
quiring Texas On any terms involving War
with Mexico or binding to pay the Texan
Public Debt, Mr.. Polk was asked to state wheth.
er he would or would not consent to Annexation
on the terms Of Tyler's Treaty, but he refused
TO ansuer. Clay was most explicit on the whole
subject. Yet the Post says the Wigs have held
different doctrines on this subject, and that their
"hypocritical profession" ought to be punished
Cool


"A word as to the Infamous and repeated
forgeries :"


The g Roorback" forgery has been immova-
bly fastened on Loco-Foeo oficehoder at
Tompkins Co. in this State.


During the night before the late Election in
this City, two very gross and mischievous forge.
ries were crculated-by Loco Focos, most evil
dently-one of them in the (forged) name of the
" American Republican General Committee, +"
the other signed William Turner. Chairman
and the Secretaries of our late Wing Nominal
ing Committee. They were both calculated to
inure the Wing ticket, and doubtlessly did injure
it considerably. These are but two out of a
great many instances.


If we Wings have carried on this desperate
contest merely by personal calumny and de'rac-
tion-if we have been Tariff, Anti Tariff, aud
halfand half-if we have fought hard for Texas
candidates yet protested against the Texas plot
if we have stolen, broken open and published
private letters-let US bear the punishment of
our transgressions, but we entreat that it be not
inflicted on the country through the election OF
Polk and Dallas.
