Capt Tyler has at length opened his eyes to his
own Interest, he has become sensible that those who
have been feastng government pap since ne came
into power pay no regard to the instructions contained
in the Circular, admonshing them to beware how
they inerfered in the political contests Of the day
We know, that in Michigan they as active in the
political field, and engage with all the aspefty com
monty attendant upon partisan efforts they were
in the days of coon skins and hard cider Even in
our little village, the government office holders enter
into party politics with much spirit hired menials
There is no question but that there is strong Tyler
party, a party not to be despised, in Mchigan-but
they are dishearened They headed in every
move to sustain the administration by the Clay Wing
Office hoders-who fed from the public crib, and
who can afford to spend their time, which should be

vengeiul throes would be impotent Parties would
be independent of them The people would truly be
" disenthralled." The country would revive and

would give the administration hearty support, if
the President would but act with energy in reference
to the efforts Of partisan ofcehoders and carry out
the doctrines promulgated in the circular 'sThe
march of Justice must not stop or falter'
We have supposed that the Administration was
perfectly contented, and rather encouraged, than
