| here IN aid OF the Loco oc0 cause, we Cannot
doubt. We don't complain Of those who con'rl-
butte it they are looking TO their own ends. It's
not possible that the money 50 profusely employ
ed By our opponents in holding SO many Meet
inga, displaying SO many and such costly Ban
ners, putting up Poles, &c. can have been raised
among Politcians-they are too poor. No party
ever before expended so much money in can
vass as our opponents are now obviously disburs
ing here and in New. Jersey. Let US see what 1t
can do for them


This is not the first time that British money
has been used here to disseminate Free Trade
doctrines Two or three years ago, large and
expensive double Herald was got out To dissent
nate what proiessed to be the testimony taken be-
fore Mr.. Joseph Hume's Committee of pari4-
ment, as to the effect of Protective Duties. That
testimony was nearly all given BY Free Traders
and was strongly on that SIDE; but in the Herald
edition it was grossly garJied and that part Of 1t
rAieh torored Protection waS left out! This
in public document was grossly unfair.


Through this campaign, the Herald is noter.
ous!y directly confessedy under the pay AID
management of the Polk Free Traders. They
make it say just what they pcase-one day that
Clays chance is pretty good, so that the ene1t they
may announce that something new has turned
un which almost ensures the success of Polk =
Itis thus that, by bUld lying, Mr.. Clay is said in
the Herald to be as much for Annexation as Polk!
and pledged to bring it about, in the face of MIR.
Claws own repeated, uniform declarations that he
can never consent to Annexation solong as Mex
ico resists it or any portion OF our own States OBJ
iect to it. If any adversary of Annexation can
ask more than this, he must be unreasonable; if
any man says Clay is as favorable to the measure
as Polk, he must be deliberate dccelver. Eve.
ry Southern journal, Of whatever party, recognizes
and comments on the radical difference between
the position of Clay and that of Polk.


And yet the last use TO which the Herald has
been put by its purchasers is that of uttering
lot of silly twaddlo about breach in the Wing
ranks on Texas, caused or indicated by Mr..
Webs!er's late noble Speech ct Boston While
Mr. W Wcbetor in HE Speeches confined himself to
discussion of principles, the Herald Il Co. e1-
claimed, Z" See the schism in the Wing ranks
MI Webster never mentions Mr.. Clay ;" But
when at length Mr.. Webster takes up the position
of Mr. Clay, discusses ii, declares himsefsatlsfed
with ii, avows that he shall vote for Mr. Clay,
and impressively exhots every anti-Texas man
to do the same, the Herald again cries out, :" A
split among the Wings! Mr. Webster is out
against Clav on Texas :" If the Herald had not
suppressed the speech of MIR. Webster, this false.
hood would have been too gross even for its
habitual recklessness. Why was not its un-
rivaled corps OF reporters at Boston Why
did not the Herald give promptly the Speech it SO
shamefuly perverts


We have said that the game played by the
managers OF the Herald is SO palpably dishonest
that the money given for its aid to the anti Tariff
and Texas cause is grossly squandered And
yet there is way in which it is made to subseUe
at secondhand the Polk cause. Other villains
are employed to assert where its character is un.
known that the Herald is an impartial, and some
times even Wing paper Thus the Rochester
DAILY Advertiser has the shameessness to say


",-S9 The New-York Herald, The Editor of
;riich Is a !Vhic SAYS, Mr.. Clay's chances d.
nnishng every day. He says the Loco-Focos
will carry the greater portion OF the non-slasehold
ing States bv overwhelming mslorities There is
in reality no kind Of doubt of the truth of this state
ment; but il is something for Whg 10 concede il
the old coon may well come down before we fire.


Now there is not Whig connected with the
Editorship Of the Herald and within our know
ledge never has been. Bennett is British sub.
lect, and processes contempt of our Politics; but
he is and ever has been, at least since he started
the Herald, bitter enemy of a Protective Tariff,
Of all Banks and Paper Money, and of the Land
Distribution, and of course a determined cham
pon of the Sub b-Treasury. Such have been the
opinions Of his paper, when 1t has expressed any
opinions, such Is he In his personal conversation.
In 1886, he ridicued the idea OF Gen. Harrison's
running for President, and offered to bet that he
would not get one Electoral Vote in the Union.
He made bet that Harrison would not have
fifty votes. There has been no public question
on which he has not at al times opposed and mis-
represented the views of the Wings. Such has
been Bennett such his Editorial assistants such
his papeI-such are they all now. No man has
ever conversed with him on politics, or read his
paper three weeks, without knowing that they
are Loco.Foco. Over and over has this been e1-
posed and yet the lie is daily repeated that the
Herald is impartial ii not Whig. The Roches-
| !e. man caps the climax.


II BusHRoD TAYLOR, Esq. OF Winchester,
Virginia, who long ago offered 70 bet $4,000 on
Henry Clay's election against $4,000 on Polk,
writes on the l9lh inst that he has not yet seen
the face OF customer. Mr. John {. Rives si
The Globe went over and bet him $3.50 on Polk,
$3.50 on Pennsylvania, aud $500 that Polk
would get eleven States, but said nothing OF TAX
ing that $4,000 Mr.. Taylor offered him
81, 900 more on Pennsylvania and $1,000 more
on Clay. but Nj, Rives said he had bet enough.
Mr.. Taylor gives notice that he has the $1,000
stu by him to bet against $1,000.


AS We don't care about betting or mcddling
with bets, We state these facts 10 show our Loco
