| Nothing is more certain than that Mr.. TYLER IA,
lost not only the confidence, but the respect Of III,
Wings Of his native State. Whether he has beer
compensated for this less. by the acquisition Of tn,
respect and confidence of the Locoioco party. i,
yet to be seen. We, a few days since met with ,
genuine Wois from Bruusw thorough. going
out and out State Rights man-who has suffered
in the cause, and he assured us, that he had no,
seen or heard of the trst "ryler man" in all his
district of country. Every Wing repudiates His
fScelency, and no Locotoco has yet openly pro
iessed friendship for him. So Tar from this.
Gen. Dfomsoole, the big gun in that region talk :,
1t Is said, very freely about the Cap;ain-not even
dceming him too exalted and noble TO be made the
subject OF derision. Whilst Richie * Co arc vii

order To feather their out of the public crib
the feeling ascribed to Gen. Dromsoole, is that

more respectable Of that party. Richie s Co
may attempt TO barter off the party to Captain 1y-
Ter for the spoils-and there is no doubt such de-
sim is aioot-but they will fail in the effort TO
transfer the whole party many cattle in the
shambes. IL the contest for the next Presidency
To-, as there are signs it will s.-betweon Captain
Tyler and Henry Clay, or some other Wing cen.
,lem,n. the old demark,ton of parties at leos, on
one side, will no more be observed. We know
mary high toned gentlemen of the opposite party,
who would sooner cut off their right arms than be
suspected of being the advocates of the Captain.
They consider, and rightly, that there is something
OF personal honor nvo we'd IN the matter.
Let the gallant Wings then, undrsmayed by re-
cent Encouraging events, stand firmly by their
principles and their cause. When this contest
comes on, they will have gallant auxlliaries C.om
the ranks OF those who but lately were opposed to
them. They will rally under their broad banner,
all who harbour an enlarged patriotism, and what.
ever may have been their past differences about
petty questions, agree on the main point-a fixed
determination TO preserve our common Liberties and
the honor OF our common country. For our part,
We will cheehully bury the past, and embrace ev.
cry man as a brother, who will aid in delivering
the Republic from the moral incubus which be
strides it, and expe the mercenares who polute the
temple OF Freedom.
Many may be incredu lous as to the possibility Of
MIR Tyler's being the candidate of any party for
any Office. The feeling is naturaI-and many of
the late Van Buren, party in the country may in.
duge 1t as largely the Wings do. But stranger
things have come TO pass. Capt Tyler now has
the inner track. He go: there, to be sure. neither
by merit OF his own, nor by the will Of the people
But he is Ihere-and he has the distribution OF the
Spoi!s, which he has announced, through mis- Court
Gazette, will he confined TO his Jri.Iis. We oil

which was only bound together by the cohesive
power Of the public plumber. Many of ihem may

prudential gentlemen, and hold their pair oiism

TINS IS the character of the mass upon which
Capt. Tyler has to opera te with his spoils That
he will make some impression, cannot be doubted:
that he will make enough to command majority
Of the Locoioco party, is probible. In the mean
