Apprehended Disgrace!

We are requested, by a member of Congress who is entitled to our confidence and respect, to say something in deprecation of a design which he believes to exist, to defeat all salutary measures which remain to be perfected by Congress through hasty adjournment to an extent that will break up Congress on Monday next for want of a quorum: To state this apprehension, as we have done in his own language, will, we feel satisfied enough to defeat the purpose, if it exist. But we do not think he is misinformed. There is no class of men who will willingly incur the odium of participating in any such design, the success of which would cover the present Congress with deep and indelible disgrace. Nor would the individual constituents of such a class escape, each his share, of opprobrium, should Congress informally adjourn, leaving vitally important business undisposed of. But even a quorum is wanting.

We clip the above from the National Intelligencer of Friday last. It is appropriately headed. Any such attempt to defeat legislation, would be truly disgraceful, and we do not believe a sufficient number to accomplish this sneaking mode of defeating legislation, dare resort to it. If they cannot conscientiously unite with the honest portion of the Whigs it would be more manly, to join with Messrs. Adams, Arnold, Potts and the other politicians of the party, in their noble stand.

While on this subject, we would ask the initiated to vote for such a sort of tariff for revenue?

They have professed their willingness to vote for a tariff if the distribution clause were out. If they dislike the pending bill, why did they not sustain Ingersoll's proposition, or agree upon some other tariff for revenue? Are they too disposed "to head Captain Tyler" and "starve him into submission," by denying a revenue to his administration? Or, have they in reality abandoned the true Democratic doctrine as set forth by General Jackson in his letter to Dr. Coleman? Will the Globe explain, or the Enquirer enlighten us on this subject?
