TOO MUCH IEGISI ALTON

That the too close interference Of Government
with the commercial affairs Of the country, both in
terna and foreign, has pernicous and palsying eff
feet is fact that has been too garngly set forth TO
be for moment doubted. The country has been
most prosperous, and the people most happy, in the
days gone by, when political meddl,rs not sche-
ming and experimenting, and thrusting their fatal
and unceasng stabs at the very vta's of the Const
tuition. With class of men in this country there
has beer, and fear always will be- that open and
startling cry awe mtst legisate we must legis-

the evils which have attended the country through
late years have been the sole result of too much
egislationn And with this too much legislation, it is
plainly evident that have had too much un,ciSe
legislation mixed up and compounded with the
whole mass When such is the case, the only rene
dy, then for the bad regulations is for In sc who
have the power to remove the instruments of evil.
What would have been the result had the wild and
corrupt measures Of the Wings Of the last Congress
been permitted to have gone into operation; Why,
long years of reck ess, costly legislation, for u
mate good TO the country. Embarrassments would
have accumulated at fearful rato-panic would
have spread far and WIDE and a complet depression
in the emporiums of business would have been
matter of course Then not too highly can be COM
mended the vetoes of John Tyler, they the
means of checking desperate game, in which the
prosperity Of the whole country was at stake-oi
blasting in their buds the efforts Of reckless band of
% disorganizers." There many who approve of
the course which Mr. Tyler then pursued in this mat
teI-the commercial man, the merchant, manufactu-
rer mechanic farmer, all, the whole of the produc
ers of the wealth of the country, are unanimous in
their approval of the means which have been used in
defeating the ruinous measures of Wing majority

ABUSE OF MR. SPENCER

1t was saying, we think, of Mr.. Grundy, that
where you found cudgels under tree, there
was sure to be good fruit on the branches. The
Federalists are belaborng Mr. Spencer's letter,
but their puny strength is not sufficient to rob it
of its merit. We hope they will continue the
war, and with all the violence they can summon
to their aid. We regret that at present we can
find additional cause for their luminosity. 1t is
by the screams Of the coons we learn how our
shot tells.
The ultra Wing presses are bestowing, with
their usual prolusion, upon Mr. Spencer the
terms, "raitor," "apostae,' "rascal." We
trust they will indulge Literally in their vernacu
lar tongue, and say all in denunciation Of him
possible. He fears nothing but their praise, fol
that alone can injure him.

THE ELECTION-THE GRAND RESULT.

The battle being over, and the smoke cleared away,
we have now leisure to look at results and count
causes and consequences. The Democrats have car
ried the State by majority of about 1900 for Co
vernon, and count Is on Joint ballot IN the Legs
lature.
Two years since, the Wing majority in the State
was about 10000 for Harrison and Tyler. There
have been great changes, but their character is not
understood at distance. majority OF the old
Wing party have changed by deserving MIR. Tyler,
while minority of the same party, believing Mr.,
Tyler to be honest capable, and faithful to the Con-
stitution have refused to desert him, and voted with
the Democrats, who sustained him. The result is
signal triumph of Mr.. Tyler over his enemies who
aiming to head him, and should be remembered
and referred to in all coming time illustrating the
truth, that "iniquty can seldom triumph IN free
country"
Local causes it is true, also conspred to produce t. c
defeat of the Wings. They had madly undertaken
to vindcate the indefensibe conduct of their late
minority in the Legislature, aud they succeeded but
too well in convincing many of their men who sell
dom think fer themselves, that it right for legis
lators to run away in open defiance of the Consttu
tion--to put an end to the Legislature and legsla-
tion contrary to all law, precedent and propriety
simply because it suited the sovereign will and plea
sure of Wing minority.
Some even thought that it was right for Wings, but
would be urong for any other party SO to conduct
Right for Pairicians-wrong for Piebeians. Any indi
vdual who could express such sentiment, is unwor-
Thy the appellation OF an American citizen.
The resignation of The Wing members was bold,
daring, and desperate move; and has, as IT ought,
oyerw helmed the actors in il with shame and coniu'
sion of face. The authors Of it are yet to receive
their mered doom, for let no person suppose that
project SO reasonable, originated with the late Wing
minority. No one who knows them, would ever sus-
pect them as the authors Of a scheme supendotS.
Had they originated it, they would have had the tact
at least TO have made plausible defence of it, and
this they could not do. We have our doubts whe

or counselled secession, will barely dare to show

MR. SPENCER rs INCONSISTENCY.

Those models of political purity, the editors
of the N. Y. Courier and Enquirer and Baltimore
Patriot--men who will be saints when they re-
ceive Qualification, and will be beati6ed when such
purity as theirs is duly appreciated, are attacking
MIR. Spencer for inconsistency Particularly
do they ring their changes upon what they call
" apostacy" from the sentiments of the SYRIA
spare their Indignation, their pious horror, at
least, until they read, which we do not be-
lieve they have ever done, the address itself.
They then will find that Mr.. Spencer has ex-
pressed no opinion of his own, no personal
knowledge of the facts he assumes. The
whole address is predicated upon the statements
of certain Manifesto, which recent publications
have completely demolished; and Mr.. Spencer,
with proper care TO assume nothing approved
a rudence rendered most praiseworlhy by certain
refulations since of the outrageous lalsehoods
contained in that Manifesto-gives credit
for all his remarks and allegations, TO the
gentlemen Who endorsed such publication. These
same gentlemen pretended to represent majority
of the A" Wing" members of Congress-they re-
presented but thirteen, and they the most VIC
lent, the least credible, Of the party They
made assertions, not only IN direct contradic-
ton of facts but in defiance of moral probability.
They violated, without the least shame, that
useful provision of law, which requires no man
to stultify himself and, after having written
themselves down asses, they hoped to render
the people fools!
If the distinguished Secretary has changed
his opinion of the Veto power, we give him Gre
dit tor honesty and manliness in pelceiving and
correcting his erroneous impressions We are
willing 10 acknowledge, that in the Syracure
call, the Veto is denominated Kingly power
that in the recent letter of Mr.. Spencer it is
more justly termed {" the suspensive and correc-
tive power Of the Constitution" There may
be difference betwe cen the two defnitons-and
if so, the change has been produced upon the
Secretary's mind, we doubt not, by his deep
felt conviction of the Veto's paramount neces.
sity-a conviction most inevitably impressed up
on his understanding by the occasions upon
which this g corrective and suspensive power
has been exercised since his assumption Of the
duties of Cabinet minister.

ity is worthy of imitation, only occupying about two

is principally on the subject of the Congressional APP

to it
Sand regret that now, for the first time within
that period of more than half century, the honor
and integrity Of the several State Legislatures should
be so far dtrused by the present Congress TO lead
to an attempt to deprive them of this power. While

State into four convenient Districts for the choice of
Representatives in Congress would at the same time

LETTER FROM JOHN c.. SPENCER

We commence is this mornings Sentinel, the pub
LEGATION Of letter from the Secretary of War TO n
committee of citizens of Western New York, in de-
fence of the course Of Mr.. Tyler, since his
cession TO the Presidency, and in Justification of his
own acceptance of and continuance in Office, since
the rupture between the Wings and the President
In doing this Mr. Spencer rapidly glances at all the
leading measures of the National Administration,
contrasts the conduct of the Wings in and out Of
Congress- with their professions before the election
of l540 and proves beyond controversy, we think,
that Mr. Tyler has faithfully carried into practice, in
his administration of the Government, the principles
which he had previously prolessed and advocated,
which were those of Republican of the old school,
Of which Mr.. Spencer avows himself to be dis
cipe.
The letter is written with great ability, and is cha
racterized by all the clearness which marks the pro-
auctions of Mr.. Spencers pen, and with manly
frankness that disdans concealment. We trust, that
none of our readers will be deferred, by its length
from giving this mastery exposition an attentive pc
rusal 1t will fully repay them for the labor, and
make them better acquainted with the real merits of
the controversy between the people and the Pres-
dent.
