From The old School Republican

We say to certain very busy 'mousing politicians"
that your plans are well understood and your motives
properly appreciated. Processing to believe that
John Tyler has saved the country, protected the Con-
stitution "yet John Tyler is not our President" If
John TYLER has indeed done much for the country
as YOU profess to believe tell me, if you please whose
President is John Tyler Is he not, thereby, practi
cally and emphatcally tie Peoples President and
are YOU not one of the People We will support
John TYLER in all his believe to be right
bit we will not vote for him in lS44." Who asked
you to support measures you do not approve? Who
asked you to pledge yourselves to vote Tor John ~
Ter in 1874? We should think common modesty
would dictate the propriety OF your waiting until you
were asked to vote for John Tyler, before you re-
fused.
We again repeat, your objects and purposes are
well understood We have but word TO say 10
such You are not capable of approaching the mo-
tiyes of John Trer any one who, IN all his acts,
are not influenced by the selhshness which hold
undsputed sway over your own actions. But have a
care you may be caught in your own cunningly de-
vised schemes. Before you are aware OF IT. you may
stand before the American people, naked, undis-
guised personfed selishncss.

SWIMMING.

bly, Iressed upon the mind, would save life in all
ordinary cases and for want Of knowledge of this
rule, very expert swimmers are sometimes drowned.
The rule is this clasp your hands behind your back
make your nose the highest point of your body-or
look towards the horizon over your forehead-and
do not stir MUSCLE and you viii infallibly float.
Thus every human being has a life preserver
against water, if only taught to use it. The brutes
from their different conformation, and especially
from their want of the great rational development of
the forehead, float 10y necessity and swim by instinct
1t is pity and paradox that men should lose their
lives by a more liberal allowance Of brains

find the above extract profitable for reflection. 1t
Mill teach them, we hope, INSTRUMENTATION in the
abuse which they heap upon John Tyler for his re-
solute adherence to their promises, and second
greater caution in the policy which they may hereaf-

times past in supporting the provisions of the Com
