Truly, the world is becoming wiser rapidly! McDonald a Democrat! We should as soon ttiink of calling Alex. Hamilton, or John Ntlains, or any of tlie blneligbts of the last war, Democrats! The fact is, that McDonald is not only as great a federalist as any of the above, hut he is infinitely more culpable lor liis here sies. He was raised in a school, the South eru. where correct ptinciples were taught, a i l where it must have required more than j tiie usual tendency to federalism, to have I led iii in thus astray.

A latiftulmarinn in the broadest sense of that term, he was there the advocate of a United States Rank, both on the ground of its Constitutionality and expedien-y. Does liis letter, which is c manned in tills day's paper, show any change on this subject. We heard the let ter read before the Convention. There was not a word in if then, nor i.? there still, on the question of the Constitutionality of such an Institution. The fact is, his mind re mains unchanged—he dodges the question. Unlike a statesman of high minded, ,lig nified views, he skulks, he conies not tip to the mark, but glides off gen Iv, and r.huses such an institution, on tlie ground of ex pediency, Until tin n, we confess we had respected Judge ALT) as a mat) of intel lect, of honesty and independence.
