y but like its prototype, too its first effort is to
impress the Democracy with the idea that the
Globe makes war upon the partys welfare and
peace. Its second number of today, under its
new management, has leading article headed in
capitals, ''THE ATTACKOF THE GLOBE; !"
and it tells its readers ave regret that this pa
per (the Globe) should thus early haze assumed
a hostile attitude toaoGrds the Spectator"


And yet the only specifications it gives to mark
us as an aggressor, consist of the two insulated
sentences which follow, from the Globe:
Specification No. 1.-"In formal editorial ar
ticle, it (the Spectator) brings him John Tyler)
forward as one of the Democratic candidates
a0hose names are to be before the Democratic mo-
tionGI conrention."


eff we NAV venture to surmise, a Democrat
ic Journal, as to the views of the Democratic par
Ity, it is not likely to allow that the Spectator
shall take 1t for granted that Mr.. Tylers name
is to be recognized in the national convention of
Democrats as one that has any claim to its nom
nation"


Specification No 2, is the objection we took to
the exclusion of Mr.. Van Buren as a candidate
before the convention. The Spectator has our re-
marks quoted thus


sit is that which is to rule Mr. Van Buren out
Of tile conrention. The Spectator tells the pub
lie, in its new prospectus, 1T will strongly advo
cate the Limitation of the tenure of the Presidcn-
tial office to one term This again, is part of
the Harrisburg convention creed"


Now, we ask the Democracy whether the set
tack or the defence is on the part of the Globe !?
whether the bold intrusion of Mr.. Tyler into the
ranks of the party, one among its favored lead
ers from whom its presidential candidate is to be
nominated, and the exclusion of Mr.. Van Burcn
from the number do not tend to initiate gainst the
harmony of the Republican party-to nnovatc on
it's dspositions-than the course of the Globe


in aburing the Harrisburg Whig convention
candidate, and the Harrisburg creed?


Our ofence-:the attack Of the Globe" 'its
hostile attitude 10 the Spectator" paper seeking
''to inculcate harmOny IN all portions Of tile Re
publican party"-consists simply in an open,
frank dissent to the Spectators avowed pur-
pose of introducing MIR. Tyler into the Democra-
tic convention, and dismissing Mr., Van Buren at
the door. We have expressed our dissent, as will
be seen BY the passag ges from article quoted by
the Spectator land which we give again. AS quo
ted) without harshness; but it is resented by the
new organ of the Tyler Democracy 1t charac-
terizes an adverse opinion to the course laid down
by it for the party, in its prospectus and first num-
Der, as dictation or something worse: and we are
told, by way of rcbuke for vcnturing to disagree
with its suggestions, that "Party journals hare
their proper and appropriate sphere; # they at
Tempt TO mu-zLe public opinion, or npiSrepreSent
it, or attempt 10 dictate to The people, they dcserre
the contempt and disregard of ftke party If this
IS TylcriSm, the Globe may make the most Of It."


The Spectator then again insists on MIR. TyIer's
just claim to place among the Democratic can
didates for the Presidency; and if this be yielded,
On the same ground we suppose, Mr.. Webster
and the rest Of the Cabinet eligible to seats in
the convention, TO vote for his nomination And
why may not, on the same principle, the whole
Coon party be admitted to attend the public meet
ings of the Democracy, and choose such men as
delegates to the Democratic national convention:
as will impose John Tyler the party for its can
didate?


For the other proposition-.the exclusion OF
Mr. Van Buren from the consideration of the De-
mocracy for second term-the Spectator produ-
ces gh authority. Of this suggestion of its pros
pectus it says:


'It has an older and higher sanction in the
name of one who was a faithful and honest repre-
sentative of the popular impulses, and whose name
should be authority with the editor of the
Globe. Gcn. Jackson, his first annual mes
sage to Congress, thus alludes to the subject:


at would seem advisable to limit the service of
the Chief Magistrate to q single term of either
our or six years


"This is a sound Republican principle; and,
even though it should conflict with the wishes of
leading politicians or leading journalists, will be
sustained by the great mass of the people"


We have always supposed that General Jack
sons recommendation had reference to change
OF the COnStltutIOn-nOt to the mOde OF eleclon
under it, as now existing. The General
seems himself to have considered that the restrict
ion of the popular will by the mere behesis of
party convention was not sufficiently authorita-
tive to establish what he recommended as new
principle, which, as varying with the Constltu-
ton as it is, he would not now adopt He did
not hesitate to allow himself to be renominated
for the Presidency by the party to which he was
attached, because the Constitution, as 1t now ex-
lists, authorized it, yet he recommended an aItera'
ton which would have excluded him from Sc
cond term And VIC would ask those who now
would exclude Mr.. Van Buren from reelection,
on principle, whether it be of recent growth, or
operated on them when last the nominee of the
Democratic party? If they were opposed to
Mr. Van Buren in the last struggle of the De-
mocracy on the score of aversion to two terms
in the Presidency, can excuse them for the
wish to exclude him from denomination now; but
then, how can the Spectator justify itself in bring
ing forward Mr.. Tyler before the convention as
eligible2


But, to mark the SPECTATOR regard for the decis-
ions of Democratic conventions called to promote
harmony, we quote another paragraph from that
journal, appended as a comment on an article OF
the Globe written to preserve the unity OF the par
t,,. which we leave without further comment:
