~" Most gladly would approve of any bill ha-

manufacturing interests its incident, which should
be presented to unconnected with matters having
no necessary utilization. president Tyler.
Now why does not Congress pass tariff bill sepa-
rate from any other measure The country calls
for one, and the President has declared his willing
ness to sign one, should 1t be presented to him
neced cith matters having necessary ailiation" Yet,
is not probable that Congress will pass one if
they do they will attach to it some odious measure
which they know full well the President cannot
sanction and for this have little reason to expect
the enactment Of tariff law this session. But Con-
gress will adjourn, and tell the people they have
done their duty; they have passed laws and the Pre-
sident has vetoed them, and we do nothing for
the relief of the country until Henry Clay is elected
President" This it is: Congress is doing nothing
but receiving their eight dollars day and conrivng
to " head Captain Tyler" and make the next Presi-
dent. The people, who care more for their country
than party, the watch, and are burning with
Indignation at the disgraceful scenes enacted at the
Capitol.

The Federalists have always endeavored to misre-
present the policy of the Democratic party in rea-
ton t. tariff. At the present time the Democrats
in Congress, even those who believe in the doctrines
of free trade are willing to vote for almost any tariff
for the purpose of revenue, which the majority in
Congress may bring forward; but the Wings are for
fastening the Distribution scheme upon the country,
and they know they can only do so by lacking 1t to
the tariff bill If the Wings are really anxious to
nrotec the great interests of the country, by the pas
SAGE of judcious tariff, why do they not separate
tariff from Distribution and let each stand upon its
own merits They will not do SO, because they
know that tariff will be established and distribution
will be de eated, if brought separately before Con-
gress 1t is only by driving them through together,
that they can hope to carry their point. The ma
iorty in Congress well knows that tariff bill with
the distribution clause will be vetoed by the Presi-
dent He cannot consistently sign such a bill, and
their object is to compel him to the veto power
again. hoping that its frequent exercise will render
him odous with the people.

nations for selfish and unprincipled exactions' The
check of responsibility entirely fails for though the

THE CLAY WINGS AND DE WITT CLINTON.
On the eve of an important State election it has
been the custom of the Evening Journal to appeal to
the Clintonian politicians to to the support of
those who were it ed Them the political friends
of the late Governor Clntons On such occasions,
the Federal organ was not remiss in assuring them
also that Mr. Van Buren, the inveterate opponent
of Gov. c.. and harbored towards them, and towards
the family and friends of the deceased statesman, un
mitigated hostility.
Among the appointments made by MIR. Van B lren,
during his administration, was that Of George w.
Clinton, son of De Witt Clinton, collector of the
port of Buffalo For four years, Mr.. c. has dis
| charged the duties of the appointment with equal
ability and fidelity and to the entire satisfaction of
the business community of that place. Of the gen.
eral estimation in which ne was held in that commu-
nifty, the fact that he elected Mayor Of the city
OF Buffalo, by the votes of both parties is sufficient
proof. Mr.. Tyler, finding the collectorshp in such
hands, did not hesitate to comply with the general To-
cal sentiment and nominate Mr.. Clinton for re-
appointment. The Clay majority of the Senate,
however, caring for none of these qualifications,
the worth and integrity of the incumbent, the cir
cumstance that he was the son of eminent citizen,
whose memory they affect to cherish, rejected the
nomination.
Thus the alleged enmty Of Mr. Van Buren, was
evinced by the appointment of son Of Governor
Clinton to office and the proessed friendship of the
Clay wings by the rejection of the same nomination
| even when made by "Whig'' Chief Magistrate.
Mr. " b. was for many years the political opponent
of Gov c. (the former steadfast in his adherence to
the Democra ic party, its faith and principles and
the latter acting with those who exhibit their respect
for his memory and their regard for his family by the
rejection of his son J But he is incapable Of per-
sonal feeling of enmity from any such cause and
how nobly his conduct contrasts with those who,
when political object is to be attained profess
bounded veneraton for the character and profound
estimation of the services of Gov. Clintona
1t is presumed, now that VIC approach another inn
portant State campaign, that the Evening Journal
will renew its appeal to the Clintonians and that it
will avail itself of that favorable occasion to an
nounce and explain, and probably vindicate, the
lection of Mr.. Clinton by its "Whig' friends-a fact
respecting which it has so far maintained an imper-
turbable silence

THE DEMOCRATIC REVIEW.

President would communicate the papers. These

deemed satisfactory, the gentleman from Pennsylva-

course is unprecedented. He argued at length to

MR.. MANGUM'S VOTE.

1t is unnecessary to repeat again and again
what has been said, both in Congress and out
of it, in relation to the obstinate determination
of the 'heading" party to keep united the Ia
riff and the Distribution questions Argument
and appeal are now too late. We will not
address either to members of Congress, gene
rally or specially. We intend to insert, how
ever, one short paragraph for the special edih-
cation of our friend, Mr.. Mangum. We would
despair that any thing from us could produce
repentance or conversion in him. The will OF
his constituents would be probably as power
less. We therefore submit respectfully to him,
as subject for serious meditation, the follow
ing paragraph, written by MIR. Mangum HIM

in the House by the Speaker on Saturday,
passed by majority of four. several members
being absent and that it would have succeeded
merely by the casting vote Of the Speaker, 1t
all the members had been present; and second
ly, that it passed the Senate by majority OF
two, and would not have passed at all, had
Messrs. Henderson and Berrien been faithful TO
their trust. These facts are the texl-now let
Mr. Mangum read his own comment:
To superficial observer seems to be, in fact
what il is in theory, Government of the many for
the benefit of the many. closer investigation dis
closes the TRUTH that it is, practically Government
of the smallest possible majority over the largest pos
sible mnority-that the largest minority Is laid un
der contribution to augment the aggregate OF exac
TONS and the majority is let down to the lowest safe
point, to enhance the value of the dividends and
that this majority thus small and effective, is, in fact

branch oil the Government in attempting to re-
medy the evils we suffer under; that you would
furnish means to supply the wants of Govern
ment-and, after doing these things, to re-
turn to your homes and show disposition to re-
trench IN your own persons. But what have
you done? You have attempted to saddle the
People with huge mammoth Bank, which has
twice ruined the country-you have spent over
two millions upon yourselyes-you have seen
the Government bankrupt, and yet wished to
empty the Treasury of the few dollars it con-
tanned from the proceeds of the public lands
you have refused to pass a Tariff to supply the
wants Of the Treasury, and yet appropriated
millions upon millions, and leave after you
National Debt of twenty or thirty millions! All
this have you done for the mere qualification of
the Lord of Ashland, and in order to render Mr..
Tyler odious in the eyes of the People
Is this your patriotism, honor, honesty and
love of country? Are these the lessons taught
boast you made us previous to the elections, of
reform and retrenchment-of high wages and
better times All-all-swallowed up in obey
ing the dictates of man who has always been
rejected by the People-who, by his hasty and
rash conduct at the extra session, had nearly
driven US on the rocks of despair, and who, even
now, smiles at the misery and CRIES of distress
he hears around him, arising from your neglect
of the Peoples interests.
The People will tell these misrepresentation:
betrayed as we have been, endeavor in the short
time left you to retrace your steps. Let a balm
be applied to the wounds of your bleeding coun
try, by assisting the Executive in the admins
tration of the Government in a Republican
manner, without regard to party or partisans.
He has plainly shewn the People that he in
tends to do so, and you may as well make vir-
tue of necessity by yielding up some thing to the
good of your country. Do this, and you may
once more be restored to our confidence, and
there will be exceeding Joy over your CONVEX
sion. PHoCIoN.

THE TARIFF.

All parties in favor of tariff-some desire
high, some low, but large majority, we believe,
are in favor of medium tarif-a tariff sufficient for
the support of Government. In the tariff case the
advocates of high and low tariff ought to yield
much, and fix upon medium and there let it re.
main. 1t is important to the manufacturer that it
should remain permanent. A high tariff cannot exist
1t has been condemned over and over again by the
people Neither can a tariff too o,o remain perma-
nent tariff such as President Tyler has expressed
his willingness to sanction is what we want, and if
Congress adjourn without adopting such measure,
let them take the responsibility.
