THE VETO COME!-THE LITTLE TAHITI
DEAD!
Thanks to John Tyler, and let the Republican par
ty say, AMEN
We publish the manly Message of the President,
containing his reasons for refusing his assent TO the
Provisional Tariff Bill. The Wings, who have IN
time past bawled themselves hoarse In the utterance
of reproaches upon the Executive VIII again STRAIN
their throas to splitting Very well, the hacks only
cry out and lustily-few beside will now join. The
President, already famarized with the fury OF Wing
denunciation, when it was louder and lar more ex-
tensile than it will be agao, heeds not the coming
breeze. We dare aver, he scorns the impotent rage
Of his enemies, with heartness and sincerity e4uai
to any wrath which they can muster for him. Inc
loud brayng of editorial opposition he has heard De
fore, and undismayed, may hear again, SO long %
the sympathisng paudits of the People shall susa,
him in the exercise of the restraining power Wisely
conhded by the Constitution 1t IS the very eArei-
ty of party madness which stimulates the ihsuu-
ments of Mr. Clay in all these abortVe enorts 10
head the President Ii is hatred's labor lost Truly,
the Wings are compensated according TO their oe-
serts The poisoned challce which has been SO often
presented he returns to the lips OF his enemies, 70
be drawn to the dregs.
The efforts of the Wing party, during the present
long session of Congress- instead of being directed to
some practicable objects of public good, have been
degraded to the miserable employ of accomplish
ing Mr.. Clays ambition. Incidental to tins principal
means Hence the alternatives presented, under the
hope through him, TO bring popular odum on the
VETo power Such have been the paltry motives
anmating their movements and shaping the course Of
legislation under the control Of the Federal majority
in either House Of Congress. And, in this view we
proclaim the opinion, that INSCRIPTIONS and
faclious Set than this pseudo Wing party never
held the elns of power in the National Legislature
Andyet there few prominent exceptions from
tn s remark-indviduals to whom award the tri-
butte of admiration, and surrounded as they are
by The corrupt and designing-their patriotism as
sailed by temptation or menace in every form, they
certainly deserveit.
But, upon this subject of the Veto, never doubt
ed the determination of the President. We cannot
see how any person could doubt to his course II
was rendered plain and palpable by the laws OF the
land
1t thought by that party that without the pas
sage Of the act rendered the President for his sigma
ture, that the Government would be left without any
legal means for collecting the mposts, and that spe-
ces Of coercion it was imagined the President could
not resist But, the provisions of the Compromise
act have put that notion to flight, and under them,
steps have been taken to embarrass the Government
from the dilemma, into which the Wings would will
lingy have thrown it. But, forbear to make fur
tner comment. Let the reader turn to the document
the Veto, and thank its author again and again, for
his irmness, his honesty, and patriotism
