/ Now, what will The Times say, when i comes 10
learn that MIR Tyler, (vcry much to hrs credit has IN
terposed TO arrest the sacrifice and 10 hauk the shame
less and harpy voracity of the office hunters. The
new Wing Commissioner of the Land Office was
scarcely in his scat, before Mr. Secretary Ewing
directed him to discharge IL IA Of his Clerks,
\ Democrats of conrse) But no sooner did MT. Tyler
hear Of THIS proscrpiiSn, than he ordered them all 10 be
Immediately renstaed with the exception OF three or

No rood or liberal man will feel for the degradation Of
him who could be so nurated by party, or 50 ohse

old war-wurn veteran faithful officer and turn him
adrift twih the a.ed partner OF his bosom, without
shed to cover them from the petlngs Of the piicss
