For considerable time, some ofthe Administr,.
ton prints were very much occupied in attempting
to disprove the principal ISLANDERS in the opposition
papers. Thesoccupaton was constant, and the ey.
ertion excessive, in showing the falsity Of their
charges. But the hope of success was soon abau.
doned, as it was that reutation required so much
time and space for facts, dates, and documents than
mere assertions and accusations, which the Opposi,
ton multiplied with so much celerity.


The National lntelligencer, probably the largest
paper in the Union and published daily, has adopt.
ed plan Of simply enumerating some of the lies
of the day." without attempting TO embrace all
which meet the eyes of the Editors. We attempt
ed something OF the kind few weeks ago, and pre-
pared budget taken from prostitu,ed Gazettc :;
but we soon discovered that we should not have
space for them in print as often as they occurred
| and abandoned the project.


! The chief consolation, therefore is--that such
prints have already acquired that character which
will prevent them from doing very serious injury
excepting where people unfortunate as to
have no other means of information, and are so sha-
low pated as not TO be able to distinguish between


fact, argument and probability, and bold and base


less assertion, instgated by malevolence, and haz


arded without remorse.
