The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1842-05-12
From The N. Y. Arena.

The papers~are filled with rumo-s respecting the
removals in Philadelphia and New York. by the order
OF President Tyler and many of them with the most
violent denunciatons of that to amiabe Chief Ma
glsirate.
The outcIy OF the party press is excessively mean
and ridiculous. The partisans of Mr. Clay have
burned the President in efigy-damned him I'LL the
lights burnt blue, satired, rdculed and abused him,
read him out OF the Wing party, done every thing
that such men could do to destroy his influence and
embarass his Administration, and now, when Mr..
Tyler shows a disposition to bring around him his
friends his enemies are in a paroxysm of indigna-
ton.
II would be much manly and decent If every
opponent of the President would resign at once, and
save him from the disagreeabe necessity OF asking
them to 60.
There is certainly nothing unreasonable in expect
ing that those who are living upon the patronage OF
the General Government will not oppose the Execu-
tive.
If they are all servants of the people, Captain Ty-
Ter is chief cook and bottle washer and those under
him should obey him cordially and faithfully, or give
immediate notice to quit
There must be, will be, and shall be an organized
Administration party, 'n spite of lamentations here
or elsewhere" and the frmest, strongest most con-
sistent and most efficient supporters of Mr.. Tyler,
will be from the ranks of the Democratic party
We say this in perfect independence without caring
who likes or who dislkes it.

REMOVALS FROM OFFICE.

The vindictiveness of the "Clay Wings" towards
the President, appears to have convinced him at last
of the actual necessity of removing from Office his
vilers and filling their places with those who will at
least respect the hand that feeds them. Holding
position as do, entirely aloof from any influences
from that quarter we have looked with establishment
at the forbearance shown by Mr. Tyler towards those
ohice-holders who not content simply to acknow
ledge themselves his opponents but woudtak particu
lar occasion to show their opposition and even hatred
for the President by joining 'Clay Clubs and doing
all they could to injure the man, whom above all
others they are indebted to for the Offices they hold
From all that we can learn movement has COM
menced in Philadelphia which causes no little hut-
terng among the peculiar friends of Harry of the
West" We should not be surprised, and the Presi-
dent would certainly be justified in making general
removal of all that class of individuals from office.
And if he would direct his attention to the Custom
House in this city, he would soon discover the neces
sty of setting ball in motion that would crafty our
mercantile community much as it would benefit
his own administration and the country at large II
he has personal feelings to subserve let him study
lie asst the best interests Of the Government, by
using onger to nourish its worst enemies.

Mr. LINN said that the object Of the Senator from
Maryland was to facilitate intercourse between the
Executive Departments and the Senate with regard
to nominations. Now, it was question, and worthy
of consideration whether they ought to resort to the
Executive at all-whether they ought not to be en-
tirely independent of any information from the Exc
cutive head. Taking that stand, let the Executive
communicate Information, if he should think proper
to do So If sent voluntarily, very well but ifhe did
not, let Senators rest their own responsibility for
their action, and get information where they could
MIR. MERRICk withdrew his amendment for the
present and the resolution was then laid upon the
table.
INTRODUCTION OF BILLS.
Mr.. VANS introduced the following bills viz.
A bill TO produce for the settlement of certain ac
counts of the Territory of Wisconsin and for other
purposes;
bill for the relief of Robert Miller and
A bill to extend the time of payment Of a ludg-
ment obtained against the Planters Bank of Mssls-
sipp and for other purposes which severally
read first and u second time
REMOVAL OF CAUSES FROM TaE STATE TO THE
FEDERAL COURTS.
The Senate then proceeded to the consideration of
he bill providing for the extension Of remedial justice
in the courts Of the U nted States.
Mr. HUNTINGTON addressed the Senate in
favor of the bill, and in reply to the remarks of Mr.
Buchanan, delivered on former day.
The Senate then djourned.

EMIGRATION TO OREGON.

From paragraphs which have appeared this spring
in Western journals, it would seem that quite large
number of persons in that quarter are making ar
rangemeuts to emigrate to the Oregon territory and
have various indications that in the minds of per-
sons of migratory disposition in this section, that
territory now holds the prominent place which
Michigan and Indiana but few years since held in
the minds of those who have by this time become
fathers of those valuable acquisitions to the
Union. For the information OF those inclined to
seek home in those far western wilds, we
would state that the only American settlement in the
Oregon Territory, besides the small mission settle
ment, is on the Wollamut, branch of the Columbia,
about 80 miles up the river. The country compris-
ing the Woamot valley is about 300 miles long and
200 broad. 1t is represented as fine grazing and
wheat country, and generally has wood sufficient for
fuel and fencing. The cattle subsist in the fields
without fodder or shelter through the year. Salmon
are taken in abundance on the Wallamut. The
colony from the United States referred to- consists
of about seventy families, and located above the
principal falls, which situated about forty miles
from the mouth of the Wollamut. The British hav-
ing taken possession of these falls, people were
compelled to make their settlement further up the
river.

From the Daily Troy Budget.


The Wing this morning endorses nomination of
Henry Clay by the Columbia Republican, accompa-
MED with the declaration that "hls claims to the Pre-
sidency will not again be submitted to National
Convention of politicians" This is certainly the
most melancholy indication that we have of Mr..
Cays prospects, and Of his popularity with-not the
people, for he had any with them-his own par
iy. So peculiarly obnoxious has his name become to
the country, that CHS claims to the Presidency-not
the claims of the people to his talents and services
dare not be trusted to the decision of Convention
designed for his nomination We very much doubt,
ourselves, whether it would be exactly prudent for
the Bank party to depend upon Convention for even
the nomination Of Bank candidate, but the looks of
the thing, where there is much Boosting of Clay
popularity! And by The way, if these nominations
Of the Kentucky deserteI by here and there country
paper, looked upon such mighty and demon
stratve Indications why is it that the country, and
especially the universal Democratic Wing" party
not settled in their minds by similar demonsra-
ton from the powerful columns of the Troy Wing I?
The would then be settled. We should then
probably "no more talking one way and voting
another"
