AL TEN IlON HE UNlNEhois'
The "Great Retired" of SOLITUDE and desert
loaste" memory, is again upon me pot'fica'
chess board.
All! indeed, lis the natural inqury1 mas VI. 'as'
exposure of his 1852 704 of Land scrip specuiaHo,
secured 10 him py his own management anu 'o'es
in Congress drawn him forth from MS aghytea anu
sacrifeial retirement Has the long e"aosuo "
names of Revolutionary Soldiers WILLOWS anu orpnan'
to whom he bald cents for their dollars touched MS
Shvlock 6,,ings so as 10 come forth and vndlcate
and extenua,e or deny his participation IN me rauuu
lent and Infamous ransactlonsf Not so, GEAR Ieauer
He bas moi DARED to appear before the public on that
,,hec He stands before the world as having IN 'he
asa9ence of an assembled multitude called high Hea-
ysn to witness that he had never either directly or
indirectly, speculated in land scrip. Against winch
stands the proof positive upon the pubic fecous o 'he
nation that he has been the direct purchaser OF land
scrip to very large amount. In such predicaiheh'
how can he attempt detencei
But with view no doubt, of smoothing over and
diyertnp public attention from the enormity OF having
wtonpcd scores of "wool hated little bIas' Gas he
termed the children Of farmers and mechanics upon
certain occasion the "Great Retired renews the
question of difference between himself and President
TYLER that occurred near year since, and which
drove him out Of the Cabinet
Ii will be recoleced by rta lers, that when the
Hon. Thomas Ewing resigned the post Of Secretary
of the Treasury he caused copy OF his letter OF re-
siynati,n III be published in which he attempted TO
stIgmatize President Tyler with perhdy ana ,reaeh-
ery founding his charges upon What he knew from MS
own private confidential Cabinet and CONVEX a'iona
intercourse with the President 1t will also b. rtcoiec
ed that though President Tyler cou not with propre
ty descend TO personal alteration with Mr. Ewing
any more han with any other private CITIZEN YET, me
letter OF Mr.. Ewing was Immediately followed by the
declaration on the part of the PIess which IS known
to speak the sentiments of the President, as well as
by his friends in public speeches that the charges OF
ialsehood and pertdy which are made against Presi-
dent Tyler by Mr.. Ewing, in his letter OF reslgna,
ton are themselves FALE Under tins pa n ana
pointed repulsion OF his charges Mr. Ewing remain
ell silent for nearly year, The question then ARISES
why does he now take it up Why does he now
voluntarily and une xpectc1ly speak on this subject
from his retirement Lancaster, Obi" through the
National Intelligencer at Washington city, medium
which will at once attract the attention Oh 'he peoPc
in every seclion of The Union2 The mystery this
the exposure of Mr. Ewinss dshonorabe partici-
patton ia specializing with the property OF soldiers
widows and orphans, has presented HIM In chatac-
ter which has placed The Imagination OF both friends
and foes upon stand as to proper degrading
timation in which they should hereafter regard him
This suspense OF public judgment, Mr.. Ewing well
knows is an I'M ottont tide IN his political htc and
there can scarcely be doubt that he agilaes the long
since 'sheed" Cabinet misunderstanding at this crl
tical period TO operate, as the lawyers term 1t, IN
mitigation of that judgment. And though he can
scarcely expect exonerate himself fully from the
odum attached to breach of conf cnce IN exposing
the deliberations Of Cabinet councils upon question
| that would necessarily have TO De discussed IN a
great variety Of points OF consideration, yet by getting
| up investigation, and lawyer like confuse the public
mind by referring distinct issues" "a single fact,
or the aggregate of facts differences "avernents,
"charges made in terms and various other "plead
ngs used by the legal profession to raise TWO sides to
question he hopes create discussion which will
connect his name for time with subject different
| from that with which it has lately been presented
| That he will succeed in raising such discussion Is
evident from the following pregnant paragraph tIom
| the last Madlsonian:
| Ma. LANDscRIP EwiNG.--The "relired" gentleman
4 occupies several columns of Tuesdays lntegencer,
| in an attack on the President and Mr. Webster. We
are glad this opportunity is afforded us to do Mr. Ew-
ing and others full justice The public may expect
a candid and elaborate exposition Of the history o.
the veoes aud of the conduct of all concerned,
few days. We shall endeavor to set this matter al
rest forever. At least doubt very much whether
any of the retired Cabinet will ever rake up again
ssLos.. uvs.v Nth It.
Thus it will be that Captain Tyler" is not te
be "headed" by Mr.. Ewing, without "show o
fight" Among them be it. II is ga grab ana
sab struggle between Turk and Turk; and we care
but little which whips. In The mean time, we WILL
NOT forget neglect the Land Scrip transaction
