The following article from a leading Locofoco paper in Philadelphia, handles the administrator of the Government with great severity. The "Democracy" will receive office from Mr. Tyler, but as for him and his thev will none of them. "A NEW MOVE.—Since the death of Mr. Legare several of the leading Tyler journals *Ihave intimated in strong terms that the lime .ibas arrived for the President to make himself still more democratic (there are degrees in this democracy, the true faith) council of war, an assemblage of the prominent Democrats of the Union, to ask their ndvice as to how ho is to become the real thing, and too'btain their aid in the formation of a new Cabinet. This is very strenuously urged upon him as the saving measure—the "Morrison pill,"asCarlyle would call it—and ithe New York Aurora, the American Senti* nd, &c., express themselves in favor of thd plan. They request that a call for consultation be made upon John C. Cathoun, James
nf
Jv to democratize his administration—to reH move from office, without hesitation, all secret enemies and lukewarm, friends—and to fill their places with men from the Democratic tanks. "Rotation in office" has generally been held to be a republican doctrine, and an office-holder should always romcmbcr that he is liable to be removed.— Those friewls of President Tylor, holding important stations, who have not the influence to benefit his administration, not the nbility todischarge their duties to the satisfaction of tho public, would perhaps relieve the President from nn unpleasant necessity, and would certainly exhibit the disinterested character of their friendship, by resigning."
Now nil this is much to the purpose, and will inform certain incumbents to prepnre for a walk into retirement, as "office-holders are always liable to be removed."
Tho Aurora talks in the same strain and tells Mr. Tyler that he has a chance to lake another step on tho ladder of fame, but whetli rr upwards or downwards is not "specified,' nnd that "this step must bo taken" by John Tyler alone, or elso all that has been done must go for naught. Tho organs are peremptory their orders leave no option to the Kxocutivc ho must get on the ladder and "mike a step alone," which seems to be rather a hard case.
It is to bo presumed from all this, that the cvonts of tho recent tour have made it clear to Mr. Tyler that the "democratizing" process heretofore resorted to, that of allying himself to nil sorts of spavined, broken down factions, and that of calling around him the very refuse of discarded demagogtiism, will not answer his purpose, and that, instead of encircling himself with life preservers to obtain buoyanco in his sea of troubles, ho bus been hanging millstones around his neck. We said MO ftt the time, but the sagncioi Madison inn and his other equally sagaciot1 advisers were of a different opinion. The mistake is now obvious, and as the Administration sinks under tho weight of its own follies, it cries aloud for aid from the very party which jt has wronged, slighted, and insulted, by giving honor and promotion to all who hud been expelled from its ranks for troachory and corruption. It is, however, too Irtto now to retrieve the sories of blunders committed by the President. He may "take stepson the ladder," if he likes—ho may turn out all his officials, if he will but tho people Imvo no confidenco in one who has shown himself so deficient /n all statesmanlike qualities. There is no "Morrison pill" to cure Tylcrism. Its vitality is gone. The consultation, if any such te held, must of necessity by a coroner's inquest, to ascertain the cause of death, which to our viow is obvious onough "Died of the Spencerian stanzi and tho Porter mug," tho least a death to nature,
Ono might laugh, if tho multiplication of puerilities and the want of common sense in the government of trgreat country were a theme for laughter, at tho continuod searching on the part of the Administration for some new means to democratize itself—at its paltry quirks and pitiful manoeuvres—at its plots and its conspiracies—at its organized corps of writers—at its pnnacoas to strength' on its frame, and at its cosmetics to beautify its features. But, after all, it is a sad business, full of degradation and humiliation, and every truo American wll be glad when the curtain falls upon a scene in every respect so fneluncholy."—PeHnsylmnian.
To this the National Intelligencer adds ''This is spicy enough, certainly but even this is exceeded In harshness and con* lemptuousness by the political article of the ""Democratic Roviow" for the present months which open&as follows "The spectacle preseated at Washington is

It did once vlflify and abuse Washington, because he Was iavor* abie to the charter of the first bank and it has opposed and advocated, ahd tlid^ dpposed as they now do, a National Bank, and a Tariff for Revenue and incidental Piftgtection. And while the people are in thonritidat of distress, severe and appaling distress, it vows that no distress exists or giving the matter a turn, by way of an ingenious^cllogism, they declare that if distress does exist, 4 was caused by the whig party and the peop(e themselves. And they go on_jaoldly to say, that if one man dubs another»^tJrthe contemptible epithet of Fox and Weosell, and they afterwards make friends, that Neither is guilty of any change of principle or sentiment but that they are, as to wards each other, the same as before.
WHAT THE DEMOCRATIC? WILL DO?—If it gets into power length of time,it will establish the odioui Treasury .Under which the people's inone be foal by the fraud and theft of plutide faulters. It will put down ail whig men] Of Reform, aad change our system of ernment. m.

Nggj^BNEBAI. AND SECRETARY OF THE IMKVY* This Globe shows Messrs. Nelson and«Henshatfr $S quarters, but at once reads them out of the party. In copying an article from the National Intelligencer, in which thexjiew cabinet was set down as "completely^Democratic," the Globe calls Messrs. Upshur, Spencer, and Wiekliffe, the "offall" of the whig party—tells Messrs. Nelson and Hen.' shaw "that if any who call themselves Democrats choose to add their small draughts to such lees, they must expect the whole mixture to turn to the same thing—a, sort of vinegar revolting to all parties." And it concludes by telling Messrs. Nelson and Henshaw that they may strip themselves of their Democratic wardrobes sufficient "to conquer the apostate* with whom they fraternize, and pass them off as Democratic.".
In connection with these alliancesand coalitions, tho Globe publishes, with abundant comments, the follwing toast, which waa drank at tho Van Buren meeting in Philadelphia, on the 4th of July last, at which Henry Horn presided. "The Democratic party—Its prosperity is best promoted by promptly condemning traitors in its own ranks AND AVOIDING ALLIANCES WITH TRAITORS TO OTHER PARTIES. We hail as brothers all honest convert* to Democracy and its principles."
This is* good wbt$ toast-yrbui% kos# jione of ifi virtue by having been o$»rcpriated by Locofocos. The lesson it teaohe and the warning it gives, should not be loai nn men of any party who may be doubtful of the propriety of forming alliances.with |o.Htical.trai: tors,—Baltimore Patriot.

If they should, neither the South, the West, nor the East would do so, and they would be left in a miserable minority. No, no, the "old democracy" have too much sagacity to be caught in such a scrape.
We have said that Caw had no strength any where. Such is the fact. He has not the nerTe nor the talent for a leader. Few than he few liiv«**3S to turn and put)lie opinion few less ability to lead it.

He would wreck any party, that should have the temerity to embark with him as commander.
We said also that Johnson had no strength any where except with "the subterranean democracy.1' He is the idol -of the Radicals, because they consider him neater to tbem than any other candidate in the field.

There free trade exists in its most unbounded senso. The code of that country contains no "grinding system of tariff taxation." and no protection to labor of any description. All these things have ever been con-sidered-bv that government as altogether beneath its notice.

In the absence of the Editor of the Madisonian, somebody fills his place with a good deal of tact, and with much better sense than usually distinguishes the columns of the Court Journal. The subjoined article is forcible and to the -point, and shows off conclusively the injustice done ny the Loco Foco presses to their 014n party in attributing an influence to "log cabins, &c. during the canvass of 1840. If any person* *cre influenced by the fun of that em. they meet have belonged to the "Democracy," and were therefore more gullible thsn the Whigs hsve over charged them to be. We have nevsr so disparaged their intell tgence. Ws believe, with the Madttaonhm, that tbe exhibitions complained of so sorely were but "efect* and not causes and that tbe "mumnteries" (if they will insist on so calling them) could not have influenced a people not already prepared for change in the Administration.

the remission of sin in the /aithful and penitent communicant purposing, we apprehend, in his own nimd, to tn^et certain objections which had bedn taken (& what he had written on the subject of sin after baptism." "The doctrine of the Eucharist, of course, is one on which a considerable difference of opinion must be expected, there being no point more likely to draw out the several peculiarities of men's minds, as they verge towards the rationalist, the formalist, or the pietist view of the subject. ...But the whole object of the sermon, as we are informed, so far from being controversial', (in the aggressive sense which that word usually bears,) was evidently written with the hope of settling and quieting men's minds, and was aimed not against the speculative views of any party in theology, but against prevailing practical neglect." The accuser of Dr. Pusey, who was present at the delivery of the sermon, ia the "Margaret Professor of Divinity," "bettor known to the public as Dr. Faussett (S&ject of one of the bitterest filiation* etei administer, ed, by ih** British Gritfe^ "The coincidence is every way unfortunate, jt is unfortunate for &e peaee of the Church, because many will think that tho accusation savors of private pique it is unfortuuate for the reputation of Dr. Faussett, &c."
A correspondent of the London Mornmg Chronicle, transmitted to tbe Editor of that paper a number of the Oxford Chronicle, containing on article on the feubject which has been transferred to the New York JR-ee-man's Journal (a Romish periodical) and other papers in this country. Tho Chronicle says, that "following Dr. Wiseman, Dr. Pusey maintained that in consecrating the elements of bread nnd wide, a change took place, but the mode of wliitfh it was presumptuous to enquire [into,] but which wo were to regard as a wonderful mystery, that it should bo BRBAD and WINE, and yet the very body and blood of Christ." Tossy nothing of the grammar of the article, it is highly amusing that Dr. Pusey should be charged therein with Romanism, when it is well known that tho Church of England, rejecting the doctrine of the transmutation of tne elements, says in her Catechism that "tho. body and blood of Christ are verily and indeed taken and received by the faithful-in the Lord's suppor."
The secular papers hate doerned it Tidvisible to come out on the jiubject of an ordinn-, tion which lately took plnco in the city of New York. After Bp. Onderdonk had announced to the congregation that if there were any impeciment lathe ordination of the candidates just presented, within the knowl* edge of his hearers, they should then declaro it, two presbyters arose and read written pro* tests against the ordination of a specified in-' dividual. When both had resumed their seals, the Bishop stated that the accusation now brought had been previously investigated by himself and a council of presbyters of whom the accuseres were apart that all oP these, the accusers alone excepted, had concurred in recommendinsthe ordination of tho candidate charged Vtlkr holding tnsounii views that there would be 00 change in the contemplated services of the day that all the candidates present would bt ordained and that all were affectionately commended to the prayers of the congregation. The Bp., as might have, been expectodi has roceived a considerable share of obloquy, nnd ho musfc bo content to be esteemed A high-handed prelate, if not an Archbishop Laud. Themore considerate part ef tho community, however, wilt look upon the case of the accused party as an adjudicated one, and however they majr respcct the motives of thf accusing presbyters, thoy will reflect that at their ordinatiou tho following question was propounded/and tire accbmpanying answer returned. "Will you reverently obey your bishop, and other chief ministers, who, according to the canons of tho Church, may have the charge and government over you following with a glad mind and will thoir godly admonitions, arid submi'ting youraehes to their godly judgments tft £'l will do so, the
