The reception OF the last veto OF President Tyler in
this city, has been oft the most curious character ina
enable The behavior of the wings generally on its
reception, was most boisterous and savage. Such
expressions as these were very common amongst
many OF the leading wing politicians DIN him,
he ought TO be shot'' ''The miserable scoundrel
should be sent TO a lunatic asylum!' " Such a
wretched miscreant should not be allowed to live
10 do any more mischief; and the man who should
assassinate him ought TO be considered the truest
patriot in the country"
These, and similar outrageous expressions, were
common in the mouth OF the wings. On the other
hand, the locoiocos were equally boisterous and sa-
wage IN their rejocngs; they drank and swore, and
hired oil cannons, and made "night hldeous' with
their shouting. But the most amusing exhibition
was that displayed by the partZan presses OF this
city The Courier was, as matter OF course,
quite rabd and vugarly abusive So was the Ame-
rican;" the Commercial" was but little better.
But more than ALL it was amusing to see the 6 Ex-
press" which is enjoying Government post office
contract worth 500, 600 year. turn round and abuse
The President like Pckpocket. Here are some OF
the choice extracts from the Express
The President of the United States has again n'erposed
the strong OF Executive authority against the Legsla
branch the Government. The President
ire Dictator he has embodied IN his own Never
elected by the People TO fill the place he holds he has
taken upon himself an authority unparalleled in the his
tory OF Government and beyond all precedent in
the history of the Government OF the crowned heads OF
the old world. For the first time we have President
TONG Revenue Bill and that too under circumstances
peculiar and so aggravated that the Of will
believe The President IS not IN his right mind
mocratc party for abandoning that party under the adj
mnstrat of General Jackson and he has lost the con-
fdence of the wings by separating himself from those
who cheeriully and voluntarily gave him next to the
highest office in the gift of the People President Tyler
in the language of the Declaration Of Independence
has refused his assent to laws the most necessary and
wholesome for the public good" He has arraigned him
self against the Representatives of the People. He has
taken upon himself not designed by the spirit of
the CONSTITUTIONS =
But denuncation and lamentation are alike idle Men
may mar but they cannot destroy. The President may
wrong the people to wreak his vengeance upon his
mics in Congress Could he not have wreaked his ven
geance upon his enemies in the Houses of Congress
wtho. hurting his poisonous arrows in the bosom oil the
Republic7
On the other hand, equally amusing are the ex-
presslons of the locofoco editors, particularly
friend SIAM Bang ~ Co. Ii is universally conceded
by all parties that this message is the most complete,
comprehensive, and at the same time the neat
est document that ever came from the president
And 1t is so thoroughly democratic that it takes the
wind completely out of Mr.. Van Buren's sails Con-
sequenty, this enlightened sapam, Slam, says
While we rejoice that Mr. Tyler has nterposed his veto
against it, we heartily sorry that his objections
not more general and more in with enlghten
cd public opinion.
That is, he likes the measure itself in the alb
strac, but he does not like the style of the message
Capital critic When the fact is, that it is more
comprehensive, better worded, heater, and more
elegant than anything that ever emanated from Mr..
Van Buren's pen, anything that he could write
were he to do nothing else for the next ten consecu
tive years.
This veto message will cause terrible blow up
and explosion of the wing party The separation of
the Tariff principle in the measure from the Dstri-
button principle will cause complete separation of
the eastern wings from the western wings on the
merits of the act itself And the strong democratic
manly principles laid down in this veto, takes the
ground completely from under the feet of Mr. Van
Buren,.
Thus, all parties are thrown by it into the utmost
confusion. And there they will remain for some
time to come And if there should be an extra ses-
sion the confusion and discord would be increased
ten fold. In Short no can see clearly the uti-
mate effects of this measure bat those who have a
good substantial s1uint that enables them to look
all ways at once. One thing is certain. The veto
will be the death blow to all politicians and finan-
cIers; and the working men, the industrious me-
chanic, and the honest, enlerprsing, steady, cash
tradesmen, will all come out right eventually
