THE PRESIDENTS VETO.

This message, like its predecessors, is written in
neat, lucid, and argumentative manner Nothing
can be clearer than the positions assumed by its au-
thor; and how body Of men, possessed of the least
honesty intelligence, deny their Justice, it is
difficult to perceive. Let every man read it, The
fact is, and every man must acknowledge it, the
wings have caught Tartar" Tyler is more of
democrat than que ever believed him to be. Again
we say, read it; it knocks whiggery into cooked
hat and exposes the fallacy of whg arguments upon
this subject the rickery and the real motives of the
who, holding the majority in Congress, refuse
alleviate the dstresses of the country but spend their
time in fishing for vetoes,' hoping thereby to ruin
the President in the estimation of the people, and
make capital for Henry Clay and the wing party
All this will eventually rebound upon themselves.
The people understand the matter well; there is q
contest going between the interests ofhe country
and the success of the Federalsts To suppose that
the latter, to attain their object, will hesitate at in
fictng stab upon the former, is very unreasonable
for where men, destitute of every principle of honesty
seek to compass particular end no ties are too sacred
to be broken. object too holy to be decorated
The Wings have the ascendancy in Congress-they
determined to their power for the urtheranse
of their selfish ends present and future. If to
unite their forces in the East and the West or to eff
feet any party object whatever is necessary to adopt
bargaining system of legislation, it must be done
though it involves the breach of every pledge
made and every settled principle of Government
agreed upon, and though the country may meanwhile
be bleeding at every pore, and the Treasury itself
bankrupt. And if they arrested in their sordid
and baneful career as, thank Heaven the Consttu-
ton has wisely provided they may be- then heard
their deep growls disappointment unmeasured abuse
of the Executive, and condemnation of the zone man
power"

My friends in the District will take notice that on the
first day of September next, intend introducing
Neau style Of Hat, for the Fail fashion,
from and after which period my sales will be made
FOR CASH ONLY.
shall reduce the price Of Hats to q mach Ioacer
standard than before fred upon the same quality
in this market. The new system of cash purchases
and sales will enable to do this, and the same
time relieve my customers from the burdensome tax
necessarily imposed upon them by the od-fashoned
credit system; being well understood that under
that theory of trade portion of the community is
made 10 pay for the delinquencies of the other.
My prices aoiH be uniform, and deviation will in
no instance be made from that first named scale of
which will always be kept at hand and ready for the
inspection of purchasers.
In order to enable to carry out and perfect this
system of purchases and sales at the LOWEST rates for
cash snail be compelled to call on all indebted to
me- either by note or account for immediate payment,
who will please take notice accordingly, and prepare
themselves for the prompt liquidation of their de-
mands.
To n,y old customers whom 1t has been my plea
sure to for the past twelve years, return my sim
cere acknowledgements and hope they may find it to
their advantage to continue their custom under my
new arrangement which it is confidently believed will
prove to be one of mutual convenience and benefit.

From the PHILADELPHIA I'm. Sentinel.

The impression has gone abroad pretty generally
among the people, that it was all important to elect
the State Legislatures in the different States. The
numerous rejecons made by the United States Senate
produced every where among the friends of the re-
jected candidates feeling of strong anxiety to get
the Legislatures, with the view of changing the ma
jority in the Senate Of the United States. From
present appearances, it would seem if they had
thoroughly succeeded. The people think that the
retoes of the Senators upon President 7yers nomina
tons are highly censurable-so much so, that they
are every where sending in their popular uetoes
against keeping such Senators in power. From the
leares that have been unfolded in the volume of the
future, it seems quite PROBABLE that the rejecting
Wing Senators will, in their turn, be rejected them

NOMINATED.

The Wing Convention yesterday nominated Henry
Clay, the "war, prsence and famine" candidate for
President They did not nominate candidate for the
Vice Presidency, for reasons we suppose best known
TO themselves. There never was appropriate
day for such a nomnation--the Heavens we're hung
in black-and wept heavily during the whole time
and at night, poured down in torrents, while the
winds roared in rghtul furywhile the Deity of the
waters if conscious of the evil which would
from such nomination, in the majesty of his in
dignaon, and burying beneath his the wharves
our city, carried destruction and distress his over
wheming course.

1t is stated in the New York Journal of Commerce,
that this distinguished Senator made of his hap
piest and most brilliant speeches, in secret session, in
favor of the ratification of the treaty with Great Br
tain recently concluded by the President and Lord
Ashburton. In the absence of particular knowledge
of the details of the treaty, take the fact of its
meeting the sanction of John Tyler and John c. CAL
houn, as abundant proof that surrenders nation
al right, and is honorable to the Union We await
the publicity of the negotiation with much interest.
From sundry sage givings out, we infer that it will
constitute an era in American diplomacy. 1t is said
to be most favorable to the interests of the United
States.

speech of Mr. Calhoun in favor of ratfying the rea

of the best efforts of great man. If Mr.. Calhoun
