GREAT AND ENTHUSIASTIC TfLtR
MEETINGv

We have received an Extra from the office OF the
Yates County Wing, dated August 4'h, headed
with the sentence quoted at the beginning OF the
present article. From the contents OF the paper
however, it appears that although the notice tos the
meeting contained call upon the friends OF Pres-
dent Tyler, yet ut the hour appointed there was
large assemblage Of Wings, amors whom not
single Tyler man was to bc found. The meeting
was organized by calling Joseph Roat, Esq to the
Chair, and appointing John C. Babcoek Secretary
Several animated speeches were delivered. Among
the speakers were ID Bissell, l. n b VanderiiP,
and L b Vaudeville, Esqs. We quote the follow
ING resolutions without comment, simply as an evil
denco OF popular feeling:
I. Resolved That the official acts OF John Tyler
President of the United States, Justly en,lte him
TO our warmest and deepest oNecrations-
9. Resolved, That the threatened veto of the
tariff bill, Just passed by the popular branch of
the national legislature, exhibits the President IN
the same light as history represents Nero, who nd
died and danced while Rome was burning, and
proves the President TO be more OF knave than q
fool, his 'conscieniious scrupes' 10 the contrary
/ Notwithstanding.
}. Resslped. That the treason of Benedict Ar
mold no more disgraceful TO him as soldier,
than the tteaeherv and hypocrisy OF Capt Tyler rs
lgnomlnious 10 him as n man.
1. Resolved, That John Tyler occupies lower
place in our estimation than the dead body OF
Cac;a did to Mark Anthony, when he exclaimed,
"Now lies he there 50 low, aud none so poor TO do
him reverence"
5. Resolved, That the declaration Of the Hon.
T IL Benton, that he "would as soon take hack his
wife TO his bosom, who had spent three years in a
bro;hel, TO take into his party Captain Tyler"
is the only common sense rcmaik We eves heard of
his making.
s. Resolved, That the very name and mention
of john Tyler siinks in the nos,rls of the people of
this Union, and his friends are so few and for be-
tween that the last trump only can call them TO.
gether.
7. Resolved, That HENsI CLAY, the Star of
tho West, is our first and last choice, and 10 secure
his election TO the Presidency in 1914, we pledge
to the country ''our lives fortunes, and our sa
cred honor"
5. RssOlrtd, That Capt. Tyler, not knowing
how to manage the ship Constitution, be requested
10 resign forthwith.
The above resolutions having been accepted and
adopted, were passed by reclamation without one
dissenting voice.
whereupon the following resolution was seconded
and adopted:

THE FIRST OFFER.
BY MISS WINCHESTER.

SUSAN WILLIS was a sprightly, cherry
checked girl Of seventeen when she made
her conquests Edward Littleton loved her
with all the sincerity of young and ardent
soul, and made her honorable proposals -
she was pleased with his preference, allow
ed his visits, because she loved to be ad-
mired; she rode with him, TO show the world
she had made a conquest; but when, after
having frequently urged her on the subject
Of marriage, he told her he would have a
decided answer, she laughed, and told him
she hoped he did not think that one so very
young and so much admired as herself
would become the wife Of poor mechanic.
He blushed deeply, then fixing his eyes on
her face with a determined look, he asked
her II she was in eanest-"never more SO"
she earnestly replied. "Susan," continued
he, you ought to have told me so before
why have you received my attentions so
long, and by your conduct taught me to hope
that nv warm affection was reciprocated?n
d" Ha! yon trust every smile, them" she re-
piled sneeTingy. Edward felt his heart
breaking-and, after wishing her long and
happy life, he buried from her presence
He had no sooner left her than he felt him
self released from a dangerous snare; he
consoled himself by rejecting that she was
unworthy Of his lOve-and, if he was not
altogether so happy as he might be, he was
not so unhappy as he expected to be. He
applied himself closely TO business, and in
the course of a few months married an ami
able woman, who brought him not only much
personal worth, but handsome estate.
In the meantime, Susan, proud Of her con-
quest, and dreaming herself as much adj
mired by all as she had been by the faithful
Edward. thought herself entitled TO select
such husband as she should prefer from
among the village beaux but her vanity soon
became obvious 10 every one. and the young
men were 50 Disguised with her airs of CO.
quetry, that they all forsook her; it was also
known that she had ilLtreated Edward Lit
tleton--and, as he was beloved By all for bis
steady and amiable disposition, no one, eli.
Their old or young, thought any better Of her
on that account.
Time rolled rapidly along, and Susan
found herself twenty-five yeas Of age, with
out having had the second offer. Il is true
