THE VETO NO. Nv

OF President Tyler will be found in the preceding
columns. 1t was sent to the House of Representa-
hives on Tuesday. By the poll eness of gentleman
from New York, VIII, LEFT that city on "Wednesday
evening and arrived in the Thursday corning,
were in possession at that time OF New York
Herald, extra, containing the Message, and we soon
issued in extra, and supplied those of our sub
scribeis who called.
TIE Veto was exp, cled by all partes--for the Ia
riff and Distribution bill presented for he Executive
approval framed by the Wigs 10 be retoed, and
the great and permanent inten SITS o the country were
regarded they should have been in pertrctng its
details.
The Message-not outstanding it was expected by
the 'uniyersal Wing party" well as the Democrats
has rutHed the temper of the Clay men, AMI they
denounce the document and the President in unmea-
sured eims. They are apparently ready to shoot or
hang Mr. Tyler, because he will not approve of the
Iiratica scheme of M. Clay, and consent to give
away the Land fund when the Treasury is disabled
and when the avails of the lands absolutely need
ed to meet the current expenses OF the Government
and when, by acquleocing IN the impoc and I'M
Just measure, there would be taken from the pockets of
the people In the form Of taxes on the necessares OF
fe dollar and half for every dollar that would be
distributed to the States.
Is is well that The President has had firmness
enough to resist the elec,loneerlng policy of Mr. Clay
an acquescence the scheme would have manifested
disregard for the best interests of the Union The
Democracy, however much they may disapprove Of
certain acts of MI Tylcrs
ly the one repeating the Independent Treasury-wiIl
not fail to give him credit for his Vetoes.
The language of the Message, in allusion to the
uniting of the two questions OF Tariff and Dis'rbu-
tion ought to meet with general approval. The
nufactuIers should repudat" the comes lon cacu
lated to do them great and permanent injury.
But if they choose to spurn this counsel, and go
for Tariff and Distribution, and urge their friends in
Congress to adjourn without passing judcious tariff
BILL the conclusion will be forced upon ALL that they
are willing to sacrifice their prosperity in order to aid
Mr. Clay in the vain hope of obtaining the Pres-
dency and their condition will fail to command the
sympathy of the community should their business
continue to languish for the want of Tariff"
We are happy to know that there a few
facturers who have looked upon this subject in its
true light, during its agitation IN Congress and have
regretted the foohardness of those of their craft
who imagine that prosperity is to come by being at
ached to the kite of Mr.. Clay.
The Democratic members of Congress desire to
frame judicous arif-one that "shall afford to the
manufacturing interests of the country all the Incl
dental protection they require"-and if an adjourn
ment takes place before such an one is passed. the
odium must lay at the door of the ''whgs" who will
sacrifice the welfare of the Union rather than disap-
point the wishes of their o-deieated candidate for
The Presidential office.
