THE Observation-Disclosures


dom, if ever called to his aid in the administration,
any of the higher order of talents in the kingdom.
This cannot be urged against MIR. Tyler. So far as
he had the choosing he certainly brought into the
administration, of the highest reputation in the
country. 1t may even be said that he did more, for
he not only retained but has continued to support in
office, the brightest and abes of those called around
him by his lamented predecessor. Thus far he is
certainly entitled to the thanks of the country, and in
great measure to its confidence and If these great
men have more of talents than of tact which we
think will be admitted whatever may be urged
against the policy Of such coutse, all must admit
the disnterestedness and confidence 1t portrays. If
it cannot insure popularity, it will lay the strongest
claims to respect
In our humble opinion that which makes the
strongest against the President is the circumstances
under which he came into the Presidency, which he
could not help and for which he cannot certainly be
chargeable Nevertheless, it could not fail Ito render
him obnoxious to every feeling of envy, and to mark
him out as the prey to every powerful party, and OF
all those leaders who control combinations Of the
kind.
In regard to his general policy, so far as that has
been developed, much can be found to applaud, and
little to censure The he pursued in regard to
the bank bill has been the most yehemently urged
against him. One thing may be ventured on this
subject already, that from experience of the
banking system, as it has developed itself since that
event. there has little occurred to strengthen the con-
fdence of those most violently opposed to him for
the course he then took.
In another branch of this policy, find more to
disapprove of-hs retention in important Offices OF
highly Objectionable Loco Focos. That he should
make some bad appointments among the Wings,
might be excusable, where many appointments had
TO be made but to retain men in office whom the
people had virtually elected, assuming more than
he be justified to them for, and here is probably
the secret of his not receiving warmer support even
in his more laudable measures.
We copy the preceding article from the Pitts
burg American, not adopting its language as
our own, but because it indicates that tone OF
candor, and forbearing good sense, which al
ways find ready response in the hearts and
judgments of the American people. BY the
considerate of his counrymen, President Ty-
Ter is most willing and DESTROYS of beng judged
at all times for, by all such, as he is most sen
sble, the embarrassments under which he as
sumed the Executive Administration, will not
be lost sight Of, nor can they fail to appreciate
the aggravation Of those embarrassments which
has grown out of jeaousies and rivaries excited
through the lanl having in view the accom-
plishment of the individual ACKNOWLEDGMENT Of
the actors in them, rather than the healing OF the
great distresses under which the nation is labor
| ing, as under the travas of death itself.
| Who can doubt that if cordial, disinterest-
ed patriotic union of effort with the President,
had been made, or rendered in sincerity, by that
portion Of the original Wing party, or rather by
the leaders of that portion Of the Wing party
who now stand out in the most hostile attitude to-
wards the Administration of President TYLER,
the work Of POLITICAL REFORM, anticipated by
the country in the election of General HARRI-
SON, would have been, ere this, in ''the full tide
of successful experiment. and the nation would
have been rejoicing in the same high quail
ties of frmness and patriotic devotion on the
part Of the President, which are now being
made the theme of unmitigated denunciation,
and ascribed to the worst and most selfish pur-
poses?
The truth is, at the most trying moment that
any President Of the Union was ever exposed
to, and ere the President had scarcely seated
himself, in obedience to the imperative call O
the Constitution, in the Executive Chair, hi
was made, without cause and from the meres
impulses of personal jealousy that ever actuatec
