AN Nj. C.-WHO is IT2

The Baltimore (Clay) Patriot publishes a let
ter dated at Washington which the editor says
is from the pen Of distinguished member OF
Congress-" We make the following extract
the Italics are his own:
" ioe had been so fortunate 10 hare had at The
mead Of agatrs ariiO ioouid hare eo-0perated
lotth us from the beginning in carrying
INTO eDeet, ce loold hare closed this session too
months ago."
Now we do not wish TO charge an honorable
gentleman with asserting a deliberate ialsehood
and 1t is unnecessary In this and all other in
stances. II neper does any good. But we may
be permitted to assert that the only Veto this
session, occurred only some ten days ago, and
that if Congress had adjourned 'two months
ago." il would, of course, have been escaped
If the President vetoed no bill during the first
five months Of the session, in what way did he
fail 10 cooperate with Congress- Did he not
urge prompt action? Did not the aohoie press
of the country beseech, urge, command Con
gress TO waste no time in Presdent-making
but to make the necessary laws without de-
lay
And yet this honorable veracious member
has the lmpudence TO tell us that want of Co
operation on the part of the President is the on
ly reason that they did not get through with the
business of the session and adjourn two months
ago! Why it was at the end of the seventh
month of the session that the President vetoed
the twelve line bill, which was only few days
passing through the House And yet Con
gress would have adjourned at the end of the
fin month if it had not been for the eternal
Veto These are the creatures that charge the
President with inconsistency! We shall wait
for the People to speak.

PRESIDENT TYLER,S OPINIONS.

We published yesterday the excellent letter OF
President Tyler in answer to Lis friends who cee-
brated the day at McArans Garden Any one who
will peruse il with candor and impartiaty will find
in il brief but very satisfactory hi,tlry of the
course of President Tyler in relation to the most
citing public questions that have agit ted the
try 1t need only to be perused to where the fault
lies in relation to the present unfortunate condition
of the money concerns Of the public. II will open
the eyes of all parties to the fair and manly course
of the present Chief Magistrate of the country
In this valuable letter he says;-".Nost gladly
rold approve of any bill haping rerenue tor its object
and the protection Of manufacturing interests its met
dent ohch should be presented TO unoonuected toh
matters haring necessary utilization, and ,Chich
In calculated TO eab4rTasS the Ereeutire action"
And yet with this public ayowal 10 the nation, it is
grayely proposed by some of the Wing papers 70
keep Congress in session TO poch the Executive We
can tell these gentlemen that the eyes of the people
are closely fixed upon the track of those partisan
Congr, ssmen who more anxious to head the Pre-
sident than to serve the country.

ANOTHER VETO.

President Tyler has vetoed the ''twelye line Tar'n
bill, and his message to Congress assigning his rea-
therefor will be found ia another column OF to-
days Star. Could he have done otherwise than veto
such bill Certainly not. And have not The
least doubt bu that the Wings themselves expected
just such result knowing full well that the President
was opposed to the distribution Of The proceeds of the
public lands in present depressed condition of the
country The bill proposed u continue the existing
revenue laws in force until Angus with poviso 10

dered the bill Objectionable, and the President having
no other alternative rightly vetoed H. La doing SO,
he but used the great consti utiona safeguard with
which he has been wisely clothed, that he might check
the hasty ID npolitic legislation of Congress The
plot Of The consprlng majority was To force Mf ~
Ter TO sanction distribution compel HIM TO go against
the Tariff bill. He did the latter and the nation VIII
commend him for it. Mr.. Tyler (and every one
else) believes iauf for necessary, aud he

The Wings should be satisfied that they cannot

three sanguinary conflicts to accomplish 1t. Let
them their efforts at Presdent-making, and
spend the OF their political existence In max

THE VETO

On Tuesday, June 2Sth, the President returned to
the House of Representatives in which it originated
the bill entitled, An to extend for limited Pc
riod the present laws for laying and collecting duties
on imports setting forth in BRIEF but lucid
ner, his objections to the One of his most
prominent objections is, that the BILL without the
sanction of an exigenoy sufficient to warrant such
course of legislation, TO violate infringe up
on the principle of the Compromise act of 1888, to
render that act liable to doubtful captious inter
pretaton thus endangerng lis existence, and amount
ing virtually and ultimately breach of the public
faith. The compro Mise, whatever il may be in theo-
ry its defects excellencies justly regarded by
the President as imposing the highest moral obga-
ton.
Throughout this Veto Message, the President shows
himself warmly in favor Of discriminating tariff,
such as shall give incidental protection to the manu-
acturer, while 1t is amply sufficient for the purposes
of revenue and expresses full conviction that this
double benefit may particularly at the present juno
ture be secured to The country without any departure
from the spirit principle of the statute in question
that is, the act of 1888.
The bill was SO obviously defective, that its dsap-
prevail by MIR. Tyler was confidently predicted, or
rather seems to have been anticipated matter of
course, by candid men of both parties.
The reception of this message was followed by
somewhat angry discussion, or, it might more APP
proprately be termed squabbe, IN the House OF Re
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES abusing, others commencing the
Executive for this exercise OF constitutional prero-
gative. The veto power was attacked, but 1t was
conclusvely shown by Mr.. Cushing 20 be not "
lie of monarchy, but popular institution, originally
and specifically designed protect the interests Of the
people. 1t is only necessary to peruse the message,
with the debate which ensued upon its reception, to
become satisfied that in vetolng the bill presented
for his approval the President but obeyed the die
tates Of duty with that manly irmness, that honesty
and integrity of purpose which, as his bitterest foes
must acknowledge, among the most certain ele-
ments OF his character

The object of the Veto therefore not to arrest
any wrong legislation, according to the Presi-
dents view In the bill vetoed but to arrest act of
Congress on another bill now under discussion
Such proceeding strikes in the highest degree
irregular and unconstitutional 1t is the exercise of
the Veto power for purpose far different from that
Tor which it was delegated, and in manner to afford
stronger argument than nything which has before
occurred Tor Withdrawing from the Executive the Veto
power altogether Boston Advertiser.

fcutles, viz "lst. A well-regulated Bank of the u.
So The Distribution of the proceeds OF the pub

by proper discrimination would furnish incidental
protection to our domestic interests and manuiac-
lures" Bank Tariff and Distribution ! A pretty
highly seasoned Federal dish But Mr.. Tyler is
heading m st of these schemes, Mr.. Bolts has pa
nacea for him also-lmpeachment, ay, impeachment
is to be the sword hung Mr.. Tyler's head. "Let
the public mind become familiarized to the term inn

high public trusts tremble at the sound.n So writes
the Hon. John Minor Botts.) And if the sound will
not be sufficient to frght Mr. Tyler from his propri-

have lust had, that Mr.. Tyler can be inundated
from his course why then the articles of impeach-
