In odduon TO the foregoing considerations as to
the general Character which MIR. Tyler bore as one
OF the Wing candidates vii now cile, IN coufr-
nation, some specific points OF evidence tint he
was practclAy identified with that party. Look
at the testimony .; the Hon. MIR BoJts who de-

then see how we could cary ON the Government
"UhoGs national bank as an oscnt necessary and
proper, and that he Knows that Mr.. TYLER reterat.
ei the sentiment 10 divers persons m dyels places.
Look at Mr.. Tyei's endorsement ct General Har-
riSon's Dayton speech. That document recognised
the oonStuton,.iiy OF a national bank. Ii a.so
denounced the use OF the Nc,o power In the Iu,
