All who delight in seeing their native State and
its prominent men held in reverence in other por-

ca,ely fa,tered by the following article:
"VERMoNr.-The 'cideriies' ofVermont have

TYLER'S SCRUpLES.

John Tyler, in his letter the Legislature Of Vir-
gnia, dated Feb. 80, 1886, has this beautiful SEN
timent;-"I was a wise custom among the
Chinese, which required the biography of each
Emperor to be written before the close ofhs life,
and placed before him, so as to give him, fore
death. 1t was designed to restrain his evil pas
sions-to curb the exercise of despoc sway
There are many reasons why this sentiment
should be remembered, just at this time. John
Tyler is expected by the host er greedy specuIa-
tors to sign bill for great National Bank. 1t is
said one' DR.. Bolts, of the great American Con-
gress, has prepared this dose in such manner as
will enable him to do it without single twingc of
conscience. This practical physician has been cal
led in, because Tyler, having before him some
forcknowledge ofwhat the world would say ofhim
after he was dead if he should consen, to viola
ton of the Constitution, expressed some hesancy
in asserting to just such Bank as the spectators
want, and demand, that it shall be called rIs-
CAL AGENT. 1t would be a violation Of States
Rights too gross to be endured 10 sign Bank Bill
|, would be violation Of his oath too monstrous
not to fix upon him inldmy through all time 1t
would be a crnging to Massachusetts federalism
too great to be thought of. 1t would be breaking
promise made too solemnly to be lightly regar-
ded; for John Tyler, be it remembered, stands be-
fore the world PLEDGED to repair the BREACH
made in the CONSTITUTION BY creating Ma
tional Bank, WHENEVER AN OPPORTUNITY
SHALL PRESENT ITSELF !! Here is the evil
dence. 1t is from one Of his speeches in Congress
1t is plain, positive, uncompromsing, and should
be placed now before him as most impor,an,
piece "of his Biography" "INASMUCH AS |
BELIEVE THE CREATION OF THIS COR.
PORATION [U. s. Bankl UNCONSTITU-
TlONAL, CANNOT WITHOUT VIOLATION
OF MY OATH, HESITATE TO REPAIR THIS
BREACH THUS MADE IN THE CONsTITU-
TON WHEN AN OPPORTUNITY PRESENTS
ITSELF OF DOING so WITHOUT VIOLA
TING TIE PUBLIC FAITH" How can John
Tyler HESITATE, even? Would i, not be well
to have some writer initiate this " rise custom"
among the Chinese, and prepare beforehand BIZ
ography of the acting President 1t might contain
full details of this " despotic sway" in exercising
prescription for opinions sake, for its fist chapter.

understood, and that no opportunity had been af-
forded for taking the yeas ana nays on the usual
item of the of the bill, and showing the country
who were responsible for them.
Mr. Wise expressed himself in similar manner,
and moved to amend the title of the bill so as to
style it a bill to violate the compromise act. lie
said Senators would shelter themselves from voting
to tax the necessares of life, by saying that they
did not vote for these protective provisions, but
were compelled to take the bill as a whole.
Mr. Biddle said that the bill ought to be called
an act to fill the Treasury by tax on the necessa-
res of life, after having created a deficiency by
giving away the revenue to STOCKHOLDERS and hold
ors of state securities.
The Bankrupt Bill from the Senate, was read
twice. Mr. sprigg, of Kentucky, moved TO lay it
on the table--lost, yeas 81, nays 1923.
The bill was committed to the committee of the
whole.

DEMAND THE SPECIE!

Should the federalists succeed in chartefng a U.
s. Bank, says the Bay Slate Democrat, we trust
the democrats will not only boldly avow the doc
trine of REPEAL of its charter but that they
will, one and all, decline taking its bills, and il
forced, under peculiar circumstances, to take them
that they will as soon after as possible, present the
bills to the bank or its branches and DEMAND
THE SPECIE.
Let the bank issue its five dollar notes, if it dare
let it attempt 10 circulate its worthless rags, but
let The democracy of the whole country come for,
ward, MS one man, and MAKE 1T REDEEM ITS
PROMISES, and keep its lying notes in The draw
ers of its own counter, while the people use as
their circulating medium The legal currency of the
country-gold and silrer.

We remember reading in some of the papers,
that shortly after the accession of President
Tyler, purser by the name of Ramsay was de-
tached from his ship because he had taken an ac-
tive part in the political contest of last fall. This
may have been all right and proper, though we
look upon it as miserable, petty tyranny. But if
MIR Purser Ramsay lost his berth for having been
an active eIec'ioneerer, in what principal of Justice
is Capt. Robt. F. Stockton given the Supernten-
dence of the building of steam Gigate in Phila-
dolphin. The conduct of this gentleman was cer-
tainly Of a character which should have received
the disapprobation of the Department, for he made
use of every argument and charge, and every piece
OF defamation, or spoke from The stump, and in
one of his speeches offered, if Mr. Van Bu'en was
elected, TO be one of band to 90 to Washington
and yi-et-armis, force Mr. Van Buren, from the Pre-
sidcnlial chair Yet he is rewarded for his activity,
we suppose, on the ground that he was in favor of
the new Democratic party, and Mr. Ramsay was a

PASSAGE OF THE BANK CHARTER IN
THE SENATE.

The circumstances under which the Bank char
ter passed, deserve commentary. which we have
not time to make this evening, They are few
facts to which we call attention, to mark the charac-
ter of the transaction.
First, The charter for this new government Of
The country, passed the Senate without obtaining
the vote of the majority of the members of that
body. There are f(ty-two acknowledgements
is only one half represented in that body. II her
full representation had voted as The fraction of it
voted on the question, and the other dissenting
member from the bill (Mr CIayton) had been COM
PEELED to do his duty, and vote according to his
own sense of his oath, the charter would have fall
len in the Senate.
Next, If Mr. Henderson had done his duty yes
terday, attended as he was bound to do, and voted
as he says he would hai voted, according to the
dictates of his conscience, the compromise, the
amendment, would have been rejected, and then
Messrs Merrick and others, who stood pledged to
vote against the bill, without the amendment,
would have defeated the measure. The Bank
charter, instead of being passed by the extra Con-
gress convened for the purpose, was thus, in fact,
passed by the absence Of Mr. Henderson. 1t ought
therefore, to read, " be it enacted by the absence
of Mr. Henderson," instead of " be it enacted by
the Senate and House of Representatives in Con-
gress assembled"
! II the charter should then become effectural to
fix upon the present generation the great monoyed
dynasty proposed, it will be the consequence, first,
of the call Of mulllated Con5ress-a Senator from
Tennessee yesterday would have sliaed the bill
and secondly, of the conduct of two Senators, who
abscnlod themselves, and thus avoided the perform
ance of duty which they admit their consciences
demanded. The vote of either would have defea-
ted the bill.
1t was carried at last By the vote of Mr. Preston,
who VIGOROUSLY violates the almost unanimous
public sentiment Of his State.
| Will the President sanction bill thus worked
through the Senate, by what Mr. Randolph would
term blach-les management-and containing, as it
does, beyond all question: full assertion of the
power to impose branches on the Stules-which
has been again and again pronounced by the presi-
dent downright violation of tho Constitution of
the United States We think not
| On our return home from the Senate, we we're
greeted by letter from great man, six hundred
miles distant, whose ken we have often found
reached beyond all others, which makes m asser-
ton on this point. We have frequently found his
assertions prophecies, and we published the fol-
ted by the future: CLAY wiN not get his Bank
Bill passed, TYLER wW reio t.'--GiOJe.
