Dear Sir 1 —It i» becoming a grave and serious question whether the Old Federal Party, which I liavo exhibited in its different political phases at ihe head of this article, evt-r had an actual, nbralute, mutter of fact existence. Ten yters ago it w as a common occuirence for this old men of my acquain tance—men who had scon and felt tho Revolution, who had been buaien nnd who hnd triumphed under Jefferson, to point distinctly to tho "Federalists,' us an extensive, talented, wealthy nnd powerful association of politicians, the antipodes a* they were, the drndly and ferocious opponents of the great Democratic Party «f tho United States. In' dividual* wore then pointed out, who denied not the nnmo of Federalist, but who like Judge Burneti of Ohio, (Gen. Harrison's cnr/fi-lential friend, nd- mirrrnnd advocate) acknowledged Urn appellations us truly indinativo of their pnrty principles und pi dib'Ctiou*. But note it is far otherwise. Who acknowledges now-a days thnt ho is, or ever has been n Federalist ? You may question tho most confirmed Tory of the Revolution, if liny such stir vivo among you, and he will deny the name with apparent indignation. If there bo a mnn in your proud city who was " opposed lo the last tear •ingle him out, nnd question him ns to Federalism. He? OI no, ho never wus n Federalist. Cutcii a man in your streets who wore the black cockade' who thought, as " Old Tip’’ did, that John Adum* was n patriot, and who accordingly supported that Alien nnd Sedition Law President—ask him in 1841 if ho is u Federalist ? Ami bo will not wait 'till tho cock crow# thrice before ha denies it. The name of •' Federalist" is scouted from tha earth 1 Why, Daniel Webster, J. Q. Adams nnd John Scr. gennt will tell you they hnvo no title to the name.— Like the lust Plteiml of ike gnlnxy, it is a polirical fraternity now nowhere to be found by that name.— But thank God, there is a Shibboleth on their tongue winch ibpy cun nevei conceal. Tito marks of the heart ore upon them, and however they at tempt to bedeck thnm*u|vo* in tlio borrowed habili ments of Republicanism, they constantly betray tho " inner man” by their unsightly appendage.*, as bis satanic mqjesty did in his last tour through tho world— ••His cont won red,and bis breeches were blue, With-It hole behind, which his tail went through. They can never hide their tail: It pops through nt every turn they mnko, In tho shupe of a National Bank—a high Tariff—Internal Improvement*—as sumption of State debts, nnd the reception of Abo IHtufi Petition*. Although these, and many other signs of iho present times point, with nn unerring finger, to the old Federal party, disguised as mod ern H'A»y#, there aro other nnd pu«t occurrences which nail them to thu counter ns base coin. The • Inal tear" is n sharp thorn in their sides—it dor s not stick tn their bnnk, but goes through to their lieartv Dm lag our last struggle with Gtent lirituin paity line* were deeply nnd distinctly drawn.— There wu* no skulking then, except from the ene my. The Democrats supported thu war, voted men nnd mpu»ure* to prosecute it vigorously wept over the reverses uf uur urms, nnd rejoiced In the victories of thoir countrymen. Tho Federalist* op' posed the war, the prosecution of the war, and re - fused, by their voles in Congress, to appropriate money to feed ami clothe our soldier#, to fill the ranks of our gallant army, nnd enable the country to pul forth its energies. They denounced tlio war nt iniquitous in it* inception, murderous in it* prose, cution, and thnt it was " not becoming a moral and religion* people lo rejoice at our Navul victories." Tbi# federal inntiment you will find in the shape of a resolution offered, by Mr. Quincy to the Senato of Mussacbusotia. It wns thoie combatted by Mr, I luhnea, 11 ft-nrless’nnd eloquent Democrat,who sup ported iho war with all his ability, ,,nd who after ward* moved to erase tlio pitiful sentiment from tlio Journal of that body.

If the nbovo specimen of Mr. Webster’s patriotism is] soothing to the Southern Whigs—hit present al lies—into what a perfect state of repose the follow, ing must throw them. " January I4ih, 1814," Mr. Shrffey, (n Virginia Federalist) offered the follow ing as n rider to the bill introduced by George M.

Fifty-three Federalists voted with him,] but 103 Democrats rose up and put them down. Then como tho question on the passage of Troup'i bill for "filling the ranks;" 89 Democrats vo ted for it, among whom were John C. Calhouni Cheves,Crawford, Forsyth,Grundy.

When Daniel Webster rode at tha head of thi Harrison procession last spring, in Baltimore, flag from thu old Buy Slate wavod over his hem whit 1 Ids inscription, '* We are now where «p< have been, and where we ever mean ta be," have no doubt of it. What a pleasing retrospect foi thn Southern Whigs. Thus—Dnniel Webster in t midst of the Inst war was found in tho Congress tlio United Stales denouncing the war—refusing I his vote* to permit u* to invade 11 neighboring bostili British Province, and refusing to fill tlra rinks our urmy; and at or about the same time tl chivalrous Harrison, miffed In soma private feudj wlih tho Secretory nt Wnr, at tho very moment] when the country wn* nt its utmost need retreat*] from the army,nnd throws up his commission!
