This, together with a speech made few d,vs
before on tie removal Of the Gcposites contains ~
many passages applicable 10 the present state of
things, that hut for having something Of INV own In
say ml-ht ne content to adopt II my speech on
ih!S occasion. In page G6j same volume:
"Mr Tyler rose, and began by saving that ifo,v
man expected that the Chief Executive officer Gf
any country, whatever the form OF Government
over which he might preside, or Whatever his con-
DUE would want supporters and advocates. he wa,
pima 10 the lights of history, and ignorant OF the
nature Of man. -" And many who bovc .s.;s,J
10 eIevatng the President by their SURFACES to this
nigh Office, can with but difficulty bring themselves

his policy. Thus 1t is that men of ereat mora
