1t was our iatenlian TO offer few re-
marks upon the message of The President
giving his reasons for the veto of tn bank
bill. On reflection, we thought best TO
wait for further Developments in regard
to the course the present administration
intended to pursue Hereafter, before we
assume position wh,ch ulrcriar>cnlnical
events might lead rs To abandon: rhis
course is the most prnden, Mr.. Tyler
was not placed in the pUss,i"n he occupies
3 by our voles; he never was t,yerle oI
ours; and certainly ono single ac, of OIL
cial duty, by him discharged, however APP
PREDATORY it may be. cannot remove all
the objections which other official acts
have created. The democratic party Of
the country are united by principles which
are unchangeable, and cann"t be modified
by circumstances. Those principles are
the same in Georgia as in Maine. Any
portion then of the Democratic party cam
not enter into any compromise which may
lessen in the least, the integrity OF those
principles, wilhou, committing breach
of faith, and I'VE might say without acting
with treacherv towards the general mass
-sof The party. Mr.. Tyler deserves The thanks
e,tof the tlemocr,,ic party ior his veto of the
twn bank bitf<;abul we cnnsrientiously be-
lieve tnrt h" deserves 81 far no more al
urshands. Let us recollect that for this
veto, he has sanctioned measures which
the democratic party in the union and IN
both branches of Congress, have con-
demned, as at war with the principles
they profess, and.the policy they are de-
sirnus the federal government should fol-
low. Mr.. Tyler, by his veto alone has
MT identified himself with the democratic
p.-tv. Until he has done 81, by other
iriai acts, we must leave him in the
hands nf ,hnsr who have plac him in
the exai!ed station he occupies. Besides.
bernre we commit ourselves, let us wait

We will conclude these few remarks, by

friends the propriety of waiting sometime
longer for fuller Development OF the
divisions which have sprung up in the
