she should pronounce it j" rise," d1Fss rails

MR.. TYLER'S ADDRESS.

We repubish from the pamphlet edition, the ad-
dress made by Mr. Tyler, now President, at Ran
doph- Macon College, in 1888. II is characterized by
that fervor of spirit which breathes in all his produc
tons. His remarks upon the nature of our Govern
men are consistent with the principles of his whole
life, The following extract has striking adaptation
the present times and will serve as watchwords 10
his friends in this crisis
In all the agitations and commissions Of party to
which popular governments are particularly exposed
there will still be post of absolute saety-it is to
stand by the Constitution There is other post of
safety The party Of to-day may not be the party Of
tomorrow. The political idols which set up and
worship at moment may in the next be oveithrown
and trampled in the dust. Let then those who may
have the folly to do so, fall down before the car Of
Juggernaut and be crushed but you will not follow
their example. You will still rally in support Of the
Constitution and when the storm is at the highest
you will cling TO its pillars and if needs be, will
TEEN it glorious to perish amid its ruins 1t may be
your fate to be denounced by those who would beray
You may be prosecuted even unto exile. Summon to
your aid that moral courage which will enable you TO
achieve victory full Of renown than ever con-
queror won triumph over the weakness of human
nature and over the temptations which most easily be-
set us. You will thus entte yourselves TO the
pect of your enemies, and when success shall once
more perch your conntrys standard and the
be frightened from their prey, you will have reward
richer than crowned monarch can confer, the approval
Of your own unsullied consciences."

had wished thus to cut of the President by obtaining
his signature later the late yeto) TO bill the same
as that planned by him in the beginning Of the session
and sent TO Congress. Some called out, That
was MIR. EwlsG's scheme.nl 1t was not MIR. EwIscs
scheme, There was not a man, not boy IN the
country who did not know that that bill did not
press the views of the Cabinet
The Wings Ia after the late veto intended
to present that bill but they were then cut of from
maturing il by information from various that
the President would not sign that bill So they could
not head him" that way Then the bill for Fiscal
Corporation framed with express reference to the
Veto Message. IL had been said, that they had en-
deaSored TO entrap the President into signing bill for
Bank, the stock Of which would never be subscribed
1t was not so, The stock would be subscribed. But
the President changes his ground every time the sun
rises He tpiH neper sign that bill.
Mr., PROFIT then replied 10 Mr.. Stany. Mr..
p. complained that he himself had been abused by the
Wing papers. He specified the Baltimore Patriot
and the NJ Y. Wing papers generally asguilty of this
he doubted not that tomorrow the Wing papers from
all paris would come loaded with abuse of him. He
had been earicatured also. Last year they had
enough to do with caricatuEng their opponents, with
out caricaturing their friends. Said Mr. Profit !;
Why what great man | am getting to be, Mr.,
Chairman"
Mr. DAWSON remarked briefly that he would
not denounce those who might differ from him in op
MON, exclude them from the party. Though a
party man, he would not be tied hand and foot to q

The funds Of the Cover nment are now virtually,
In the custody OF the President"
So says the Baltimore Patriot But is il true
The funds of the Government, on the contrary,
are in the custody Of the law-the law of 1889
They are precisely where they always were
from the foundation of the Government down
TO lSl6-where they were under the admins
tration of Washington, Of Adams, of Jefferson,
and Of Madison. They are in the U. S. Urea
sury, and no portion Of them an be drawn from
the Treasury, except under appropriations made
by law. The President cannot touch dollar
Of the public funds. He is the executor Of the
law-and the law is the creation of Congress.
In regard to the details Of the administration
strain Executive discretion, Congress will do il /;
and do it, doubtless, If il be necessary, before il
adjourns.
The intimation thrown out in various quar-
tiers that the President has usurped and united
the purse and the sword, by veloing an imprac-
ticable, and, as he believes, unconstitutional
Bank bill is groundess and unjust. This is a
poor device TO terrify and silence the Presidents
conscience. II was unknd 10 repeal laws limit
ing Executive discretion, present to him sub
stitute which he could not sanction, and then
accuse him of usurpalion. If this denuncia-
ton, therefore, is repeated, il will be strong
indication that the design was, by this process
Of legislation, merely TO head him."
