ing of great import or no,oriety had transpir-
ed. The mass of the loco-foco party seem TO
be totally opposed 10 His Accidency's new
plan for a Government Fiscality; and their
head, Cravat Tom Benton, has declared his
hostility to the President and his measures,
and avowed determination to battle against
said "Fiscality" through the 7th, and swears
he will not be found missing in the 18th hour.
Poor Tom, he need not fear his Accidency in
'44-neither of the present existing parties
will nominate him for the present high and
lofty station which he occupies; and which ne
gained by the lamentable death OF the immor-
tai HARRISON, and SO basely abused. lie be-
trayed his country, his cabinet and his party

spit upon. Fear him not.

Jake Thompson, of Mississippi, gave notice o

law as it now exists, we are not able TO say

After supper the company made their way

laughing eyes and fairy forms of the ladies, as
they glided through the dance, the palace mo-

mark in relation TO him. Whatever his crime may
have been, II has not been unattended by full mea-
sure of punlshment-to which have desire to
add. We are willing in charity to concede, that IN
his interview with Ciey he understood the latter IN
accordance with the sense which he afterwards In
sisted that Mr.. Cilley should express IN written form
But that was a total misunderstanding, growing out
OF the uncertainties of verbal communications on such
occasions, well Ied,-knowing as we do
how uniform were Mr. Cilleys representations on the
subject to his friends from The beginning and how
Indignantly he saw in the insolence of this demand
that evidence of a determination to force him to the
crime of fighting the disgrace of insult and out
rage which led him in that fatal hour 10 accept that
fatal challenge.
OF the part which Mr. Clay appears to have pei
formed in this dread DRAMA we have nothing else TO
say than this that While he was undoubtedly at the
time actuated by sincere desire 20 avert any fatal
conseq uences in the affair, yet to his subsequent
course, in allowing his friends to keep closely
drawn the veil of secresy the extent OF his parti

Correspondence of The NJ Y Evening Post.

The rejection of Mr.. Tyson whose name has been
for several months before the Senate as Commssary
General of Purchases, is topic of general CONVEX
saton The vote stood 90 to II, four democrats, viz
Calhoun, Cuthbert, Walker, and McRoberts, and
seven wings, Evans, Bates, Choate, Sprague Tai
madge, Rives,--, voting for him. The conduct
OF the wings is, to many, unaccountabe, because, at
the extra session, they confirmed the nomination of
this gentleman, Surveyor of the Port Phila-
dephia, without dissenting voice and now, only
seven wings in the Senate be found
to vote in his favor for on Office which they will
allow he is abundantly Qualified to fill. 1t may be
asked, in the expressive language of Mr. Calhoun,
"Can you, gentlemen, state reason why Mr.. Ty-
son shall be rejected"' If the Clay Senators could
not state reason why he should be rejected will
state one, and the only one, why he was rejected
and that is, he is friend Of the President, which is
enough to satisfy every true Clay man.
The question asked among politicians is what course
will the President pursue in future having fully
certaned that there is settled purpose, on the part
Of the Clay faction to break down his administration
1t is believed that he will nominate no man to office
who is suspected of being nimical to his admins
traton, no matter how well he fought in the "hard
cider campaign and those gentlemen who are the
liege subjects of the immortal Harry, should have
their walking-tickets before they could say Jack
Robinson. Nearly all the important offices filled
with gentlemen who are the avowed friends of his
vilifer and caumniator, and hundreds Of democrats
of good character and sound principles were hurled
from office by Ewing and Granger, for the purpose
of putting in their place Clay puppets. This is the
opinion which prevails here, among the best inform
ed wing politicians. The Clay wings with their lead
er, will then have opportunity Of judging whether
Mr. Tyler is the "weak, vacilatng'' man they repre-
sent him.

j. WASHINGTON TYSON

The rejection of this gentleman by the Senate of
the United States although not altogether unexpect-
ed, Grom the composition of that body was vet I'M
Just inexcusabe, and unwarrantable. The requisites
for office in the days Of Thomas Jefferson were is
the applicant incumbent ''honest-is he capable ~
These requisites appertaned to MIR. Tyson,i emf
nent degree-hs integrity has never been questioned
and his talents and bearing superior to three
fourhs of those Senators who voted against him.
Mr.. Tyson was in the full performance of the duties
of the Office of Commissary General and not syla-
BILE was uttered, or could be spoken against him, by
reason of ncompetency neglect. He was most
excellent officer, and all whose eyes not afilct
ed with strabismus, or their minds jaundiced, award
ed him praise Why this rejection? We fear that
other than pure motives operated upon the minds of
majority of the Senate-that "envy, hatred, NAL
ce," and faction, produced this result. To give Mr.
Tyson fair, open and honorable trial. before an
honest Just and impartial tribunal, the result would
be glorious to him, and creditabe to his triers To
be dealt with in secret before his Prosecutors enemies
and slanderers, would evenuate in his discontinue,
to their everlasting dishonor and disgrace. Let us
look for an instant at the character Of some of the
Senators voting for and against MIR. Tyson
Seven of the best and abest men, and Wings in
Preston, Rives, Sprague and Tamadge, voted for
Mr.. Tyson, with four loco focos Messrs. Calhoun,
Cuthbert, McRoberts and Walker.
The only two Wings of decided talent who voted
in the negative, were Messrs. Crenden and Man
gum their Claysm would not let them vote for the
confirmation of gentleman who abored so long and
successfully in favor Of the nomination ofthe beloved
Harrison
We have said this much of the rejection of Mr..
Tyson, because we know him, and worthier man
does not breathe this side of Heaven.

gone to Richmond this week to look to things lit

might carry the day because, if we defeated,
we expect to be, he will back to the capitol in

THE NAVY.

1t is understood at Washington that the promo ions
which the exigences of the Navy made impe rative,
and which were recommended by the Secretary, have
been acted by the Senate with the exception Of
some of the captains and comlnodores, in regard to
whom there is some difference Of opinion) The de-
lay in the promulg of promotions which con-
irmed is creating great dissatisfaction among the jul
nioTs, some of whom have been entitled TO their lift
for many years. 1t is known greatly to embarrass the
Secretary, and has rendered the Navy less efficient at
the present time than it should be. Another difficulty
growing out of the delay is the detention Of vessels
which should now be at sea. No blame be attri-
buted to the Secretary. He is most competent and
able officer, and has done all he could to effect the
great objects connected with the prosperity of the
NAVY.

The Hartford (Connecticut Courant, comment
ing upon the rejection of Mr.. Tyson, Of Philadelphia
says:
"a nomination, if tie nominee possesses a fair cha
racer and has capacity and fitness for the Office to
which he is nominated, should more be rejected
because the Individual is the friend of President Ty-
ler than because he is the friend of Nj. Clay or Ge-
neral Scott, or any other distinguished Wing. Such
considerations these should not enter into the
breasts of honorable Senators hope they do not.
Sure we are that the constituencies of the Wing Sc
majors from New England will not sanction them
The General Administration is entitled to receive
fair and liberal support from the Wing party, and
leprecate all factious opposition TO it, let il from
what quarter II may"

MR.. CLAY,


Mr. Clay left Washington Thursday for his
home in the West He goes into private life, as his
friends believe, only for brief season, at the end of
which they expect him to return to the Capitol to
ceive upon his brow the civic wreath But they are
to be disappointed. Mr. Clay has enacted his part
in the great drama of life and is already of
yesterday In politics he belongs to by-gone school,
He came upon the stage ia stormy period of public
affairs with brilliant talents, chvalrous feelings, and
all the elements of apopular leader. His sympathes
were with the people, and he arranged himself with
in his popular sympathies he would, in all probabili
ty, have long ago reached the Of his ambition.
But he "sinned against liberal IDEAS" by becoming
the champion of associations, cques, and clubs, and
the advocate of the privileges of the few instead of
the rights of the many. This false step gave the
character to his whole subsequent life and the
sequence of it is that he has had and has not
now, any available strength with the people, Ardent
admirers devoted friends, he has ever had and ever
will have but unfortunately for him, they in the
minority position out Of which they can neither
drag him he them, for they have sympathies
in common with the of mankind. This
sideration, under any contingency that may arise,
will always disappoint Mr. Clay's ambitious hopes.
It has governed, with ing certainty, all his past
fortunes and it will control his future calculations,
be their character or purpose what they may. Were
the powers of the state in the hands of privileged
ders Mr.. Clay's will would be law. But resting
his fortune upon such incidents of life rather than
upon the broad basis of humanity there is power
over him which he cannot control-the power of a
diffusive public opinion. This power has hitherto
checked his public career it sends him into re-
tirement and there it will hold him, with steady
nerve, until his energies exhausted by the
Aict with his own rreversible fate He has gone
into retirement--for the last time

REJECTION OF MR.. TYSON.

This gentleman first appointed Surveyor of
the Port of Philadelphia, and his nomination was I'M
hesitatingy confirmed by the Senate. On the occur
renee OF a vacancy IN the post of Commissary Gene
rail- occasioned by the death of Gen. c.. Irvine, Mr..
Tyson Immediately transferred to that Office by
President Tyler and has discharged its duties ever
since December last. But the Senate after hesating
about the nomination for than five months, have
at last dared to reject it And this in the faco Of
their confirmation of his appointment as Surveyor,
and their express ack nowedgment of his fitness for
office
The truth is, neither the President or the Senate
doubt in the least Mr.. Tysons capacity for either of
these offices. But the Senate since they confirmed
his Suiveyorship have discovered that he is perso
nal and political friend of Mr.. Tyler This is ca
pal crime in the eyes of the Clay Wings in the Sc
nate, punishable in all with political death
Some fifty more ofthese Criminals" now hang
ing in suspense before the Senate, under the awful
charge Of friendship for President Tyler.

ject of Mr.. Tysons nomination Those in italics are

Here, then is the honorable Senate of the United
States-the balance wheel in the Constitution-the
regulator of the popular branch Of the Legislature
rejecting Mr. Tyson for the sole reason that he is an
Administration man Not whisper is heard against
his honesty or abty-nota charge is laid against him
of any description, that he prefers Mr. Tyler to
Mr. Clay Beautiful specimen OF Southern chivary!
Charming idea of the morale of Wing politics
We'll, the honorable Senate of the United States
may descend if 1t please, from its legitimate platform
of high and responsible public duty, to the low level
of factious revengeiul opposition to the Executive,
but if it do moi find Itself, rather than Mr.. Tyler,
headed" by public rcprobaon, then the signs of the
times give forth false auguresl This body could moi
take more efeclua mode of building up the popuIa-
riy of the President than Ivy rejecting men whose
superiority of talent and purity of character
conspicuous as are those of Mr. Tyson.

HINTS FOR OFFICE-HOLDERS.

The Madisonian of the 9th instant, has an article
on removals from Office We copy the concluding
part, as piece of gratifying intelligence to those,
who while Mr.. Van Buren, in Office strove to out
Herod Herod HIMSELF in their devotion to the Demo-
cratic pary-but since the accession of Mr.. Tyler,
have strven equally hard, to prove they had taken no
part in politcs-no, they never mentioned it. Fur
thermore the hint will apply with the same force to
those ultra olice-seekng Wings, who anxious
to prescribe every Democrat, no matter how faith
fully he had discharged the duties of his office, or
how well he was liked by the community. Off with
his head was the cry. The honest men of both par
ties--Democrats and Wings should unite to sweep
from office such TOOLS who like Esau would sell their
birth right for mess of pottage
