THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

We publish this morning an able and interesting
Message from President TYLER, urging upon Congress
the proprety of suspendng the operations of the act
passed at the extra session. for distributing the pro-
ceeds of the sales of the public lands, among the
States. Whatever may have been thought of the
distribution act, at the time of its passage the none
tary affairs of the national government have since
fallen into such state that there cannot be much
diversity Of opinion as to the necessity of doing
thing, and that promptly to retrieve the credit of the
nation. The democrats, who as body, were OPP
posed to the passage of the distribution act there is
no doubt, will generally go with the President in
favor of its repeal and they will be sustained by a
large number of the wings, who will the proprie
ty of such step. The President meets the question
fearlessly and in reference to the distribution act
well to the readjustment of the tariff to which he
aludes in his Message, expresses his sentiments frank
ly and without reserve. We commend the document
to the attentive perusa of our readers-Phil finer.

A WORD IN JUDGE WRIGHT'S EAR.

The Cincinnati Gazette of Saturday. arraigns
Mr.. Tyler deserter from Wing principles, and
there are three specifications made under this head,
| which we propose briefly to notice.
1st 1t ,cas leading Whigpnncple that no man. hoc-
pure should than Presidential term.
1t is alleged by the Gazette that Mr.. Tyler is dong
all he to violate this wholesome rule and to
cure for himself the succession How does the Ga
zette Judge him. Answer First by the Madso-
nan second by his action regards appointments
to office.
The people will reply that the first answer is to-
tally unsatisfactory, besides afording ground for
the charge. The editor of the Madisonian yields
honest and ardent support to the Administration, and
repes the vile assaults upon Mr.. Tyler and his Cabi
net by such men as John M. Bolts & Co. 1t hath in
this offended, but no farther The great desire to
force Mr.. Tyler into public declaration that he will
not serve the Presidency should the colleges desire
him to do Them probably, the difficulties exist
ing might be compromised.
As President OF the United States it is required that
John Tyler shall publicly acknowledge featy to
party and submit to the livery of party minis
ter the collar of partisan leader. This he will
do If no party supports the Administration, the
People will calmly consider the measures proposed for
the welfare, by the officers, and in due time
will know from the Representatives why support of
those measures was withheld The great body of the
People have sympathies in common with those who
would bring ruin the commonwealth in order to
excite odium against the public servants who
trusted with the Executive Department of the Govern
rent. Mr. Tyler was elevated to his present station
by act of God He has never been elected Presi-
dent of the United States and strictly admitting the
premises of the Gazette, his election another term as
President would be violation Of the principle adj
vanced. Be that it may what right is there in the
party the press to challenge Mr. Tyler to the avow
al of the sentiment proposed before the proper period
arrives to cast about for President. Have the
People nothing to do but to engage in President max
ing? What would be the effect of such declara
ton Parlisans would become violent in Congress,
and questions would be agated and decided not upon
their merits but upon the bearing of the next election
The Administration would receive support oppos-
ton its measures conceded WITH opposed the
| particular views of the successor annointed.

Although we are not among those who imagine
that war is Immediately to take place between this
country and Engand-yet we cannot perceive any
good reason that can be urged for the inactive and
inefficient course pursued by government so far
any thing like wise preparation for such emer-
gency is concerned. We have thousands of miles of
sea coast and frontier for which there is protec
ton that is worthy of the name. Our marine force
is as nothing in point of numbers and Implements
when compared with that of the threatened enemy
Of war steamships we believe there but three,
and to make out even this number, or two have
to be counted, whose "indentures should have been
given up years ago." And yet, with all these things
in this improper condition, hear but little, and
still less that promises the least Improvement In
all this there IS an evident improperly, for it should
ever be kept in mind by government and people,
that the true mode of avoiding unnecessary conflicts,
is at all times to be prepared for them.
