ANOTHER VETO.


The Wings, believing that the American people
are Jealous of one man exercising IN this country
much individual responsibility, have, by intrigue,
caucusing and brow-beating, forced Janus bill
through Congress by ostensible majority, if that
can be called majority, which IN one branch was
nearly Tie, while in the Senate the same was Ell
fected by the silence of Southern Senator and
the absence of another
Pretending to be friendly to the manufacturing
interest they cogged the bill with a weight which
they knew would defeat the expectations OF the
manufactur
Pretending to be patriots and reformers, they wish
to draw from AN exhausted treasury the few dol
lars from the public lands, and compel the Govern
ment to go on borrowing until the public credit shall
be destroyed.
Pretending to be economists, they pass months in
discussing and perectlng measure, which, when
perfected they know will be so obnoxious 10 a MI
nority in Congress- almost if not quite as numerous
their uncompromisinl majorIty-a minority too,
swelled III influence and weight by some OF Their
strongest supporters Of other party measures-as
to cause them to hail the Executive dissent with
appreciation.
If this Clay party seek the good of the country,
why their sessions of Congress longer than any
preceding sessions in times past?
Why do they deliberate almost the whole year IN
maturing plans which have nothing but party zeal 10
recommend them
Why attempt IN the same bill to put money in the
Treasury by an abuse of constitutional power, and
them by an assumption of power not embraced 10
that instrument, distribute a common fund
This mockery Of legislation | ads to all those evils
which the Republican party have ever strved to
avoid. Unequal taxation rs imposed upon the people
by their public servants, sworn though they be 10
support the Constitution, and this is done that the
President of the Wings, by accident, may be deprived
in his administration of those aids which Congress IS
bound to afford him, if he pursues an honest and
manly course.
Can it be wondered when this dictatoral Wing
majority is 50 unbend ng that peto follows reto
Fortunate is il for the country that such citadel
exists to which the Executive repair, in the last
resort and from party pollution the rights OF
the American people. Though Democratic Re-
publican we can appreciate that act OF a Wing fre-
sdent who throws himself in the breach and arrests
tee Gaus in their furious career.
Bewildered themselves by the loss Of place and
patronage, they charge upon President Tyler mad
ness, sehshness, &C., and compare him to Charles
LIST, to Nero and such tyranaic rulers.
But it will not do The people observe their ty-
rannic course Three independent Senators of their
own party condemn them. How then they
coed in humbugging people who are as free to
judge they capable Of exercising enlight-
ened judgment. The Clay leaders have broken
their promises to them. President Tyler, the
other hand is striving to relieve the by all consti-
utiona means.

TILL, lLvrnl

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
Revenue and Distribution bill meets most cordial
appreciation. 1t is plain, able, well written paper
reflects much credit upon its author and will most
unauestionably have 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 II an
attentive perusal. By Democratic friends it will
undoubtedly be read with much pleasure and appro
baton. The Wings, we should judge from the harsh
and seve epithets heaped upon him, have lost that
entire fdence IN the Wing principles and purposes Of
John Tgler they took so much pleasure in pub
fishing and circulating in hand-bills through every
street in town, and apprehend the sound OF those
guns were anything 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 so far as it agrees
with the principles and measures of the Democratic
party, and to censure and condemn what is Federal
in his Administration. II is not necessary for to
comment particularly upon the Message, intelli-
gent friends can read it and Judge for themselves.
Ii is gratifying TO that President Tyler is not
easily headed Bolts supposed and that the band OF
desirctires the Clay-whigs must by this time be
tsfed that Mr. Tyler has more decision and frmness
of character than to be frightened from his duty in
protecting the Constitution of his country and the
rights of the people by such unprinciped and
worthy set as now compose the Whg majority in
Congress.
Mr.. Tyler has nothing to hope from the Wing par
ty. They hate and despise him. He has vetoed their
two principal measures-a United States Bank and a
high protective Tariff and they never will forgive
him. And if Mr. Tyler will now take bold indie
pendent, Democratic course, we have no doubt the
majority of the American people will rally and sup
port his Administration.
