the day for the Newark State convention. II had

THE VETO

The Democrats of Portsmouth gave President Ty-
Ter salute of fifty guns the reception of the veto
message Thursday evening last.
This veto message Of President Tyler upon the re-
venue and distribution bill meets most cordial APP
probation. 1t is a plain, able, well-written paper
reflects much edit upon its author, and will most
unquestonaby have a great tendency to raise him
in the estimation Of the Democracy of the country.
We take much pleasure in laying this message of
President Tyler before readers, and ask for it
attentive perusal By our Democratic friends it will
undoubtedly be read with much pleasure and appro-
baton The Wings, we should judge from the
harsh and severe plhets heaped upon him, have lost
that entire confidence in the Wing principles and ppo.
Of John Tyler they took much pleasure in
publishing and circulating in handbls through every
street in town. and apprehend the sound of those
guns was any thing but welcome music to their feel
ings.
In many of the Presidential acts Of Mr.. Tyler we
have been most happily disappointed, and shall not
hesitate to commend his course SO far as it agrees
with the principles and measures of the Democratic
party and to censure and condemn what is Fede
raj in his Administration. II not necessary for
to comment particularly upon the message our ntelli
gent friends read it and judge for themselves.
1t is CRAFTY ing to that President Tyler is not
easily headed Bolts supposed, and that the band
of destrucres the Clay Wings, must by this time be
satisfied that Mr.. Tyler has more decision and firm
ness Of character than to be frightened from his duty
in protecting the Constitution of his country and the
rights Of the people by such unprincpled and un-
worthy set as now compose the Wig majority IN
Congress
Mr.. Tyler has nothing to hope from the Wing
party. They hate and despise him. He has vetoed
their two principal measures United States bank
and high protective tariff-and they will for
give him. And if MIR. Tyler will now take a bold
Democratic course we have no doubt
the majority of the American people will rally and
support his Administration.

Bolts has renewed his determination to impeach
President Tyler. He is going at it next winter in
earnest Let us see, the charges and specifications
read nearly as follows. SIN the name of Henry
Clay and the great wing party, and the people of
Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, i, John Nj. Bolts,
of Virginia. do, in the name and by authority of the
same, impeach his Accdency, John Tyler, of high
crimes and misdemeanors in that he has refused his
signature to laws, wholesome and necessary for the
wing party,-that by his vetoes, contrary to john
quincy adams, in such made and provided he
has obstructed the administration of justice in behalf
of Monoposts, Banks, Brokers, Pipe-layers and
other worthy and deserving agents of the wing par
ty-that he has ruined the prospects of Henry Clay
for the Presidency, by uniting with the loco focos
that he has refused to be counseed and dictated by
those who elevated him to power that he has
knowingly and wilfully appointed men to Office who
are enemies to Henry Clay that he has in many
instances bestowed the patronage of Governmentupon
loco focos that without the fear of salt-petre be-
fore his eyes, he has removed good and true wings
from important Offices, to make room for loco TO
cos that he has repeatedly headed Congress in its
attempts to legslae for the good of the wing party
and finally, in that he is not the choice of the wing
party and therefore, ought longer to be President
of these United States

man, the head Of majority OF the committee and
two minority reports from Mr.. Gilmer, and one

this purpose they proposed amendment to the Con-

The following extract of letter from gen
tle.l an of high and commanding influence in
show how political matters stand in the Buck
eye State. The Clay Wings are exceedingly
like the Bourbons "THEY LEARN NOTHING, and
THEY FORGET NOTHING" Because log cabins,
coonskins, and hard cider were important agents
in the machinery of the Presidential contest in
1910, they are silly enough to imagine they can
be rendered equally effective in 1912. But TO

THE END OF THE SESSION-AND
THE END OF THE GAME.-THE
PROTEST.

After playing nine months without rising,
the game has been brou! ht TO close by the ig-
nominious defeat of the Wings. They were
unable 10 make another move, unless it was
retrograde movement. The last move OF any
note was undoubtedly one of this character
After being twice repused on the Distribution
bill, they found it necessary (rather ingloriously)
to fall back upon the Tariff per Sc. Had they
remained another month, we doubt not the Elk
chequer would have been adopted. 1t will have
its day.
We have read, over and over again, the Pre-
sdents Protest, sent in on Tuesday, and can
not for the life of US, find terms to express our
admiration OF the document. 1t speak, for IT.
SELF 1t will go into the hands of every Amer
can, and the Presidents friends may well be
content TO leave il with the People. 1t needs no
friendly reviewer to commend il TO the public
it is It's own advocate and defence.
In relation To The reception the Protest met
with in the House, our greatest modification is,
that Bolts was made the or an OF the Wing
party. Was not Arnold, or Garret Davis, or
Stanly, or Lane, or Gentry, or Adams himself,
bad enough to suit their taste? Why should
they insult the nation by putting forward the
great puerile impeacher? But the President
must endeavor, with the besl grace in his pow
er, to survive it.
In regard TO The three resolutions, copied from
the Senate proceedings, we have nothing in par
ticuar TO say at this time. AS Gen. Jackson
was not killed by them, President Tyler, per-
haps, may not be totally extingushed. But the
former was censured by the Senate, the body
which, by the Constitution, has the power to
try Presidents. Ii is different with the House.
The House has no such power. But the tenn
poTary majority in the House can disregard the
Constitutional al defiance all rules, and
wreak its vengeance on the President at plea
sure. So belt We did not expect the Protest
would be entered on the journal But ue knop
ii piH be entered on the hearts Of the Ameri-
an assault on the House. 1t is merely vindi-
cation of his motives, and the dignity of the Elk
ecutlve Department of the Government, after
both had been assalled in tactious and uncon-
stlutional manner. There was no committee
no electloneering report, in Jackson's case
II was also an Insult to Bolts, to make him
spokesman on the occasion, and then 70 vote
down his own original resolution, after he had
been made cat paw by them The only won
derIs, that Bolts did not seize this opportunity
10 bring forward his celebrated articles of I'm
parchment. This would have been a terrible
blow at the Executive.
There is one thing to be noted in the close Of
this eventlul gamr. AU the members arrayed
against the President were Whigs-and all that
stood up manfully in his defence, with but few
exceptions, were Democrats.
