another in Mississippi, another in Kentucky and
IN various other States. We have another thi,
morning to add to the lst-not less significant than
those which have gone before. The Riebmord

morning-than which there can he no h.,,.. =;
dencc oil the unadulteratcd Whirrerv of hi, r.
cellency!-The treaty between the hish eon,,,c,
ing parties has been long in progress. When m,
President was here last fall, the Editor made an
ovetture-or at least gave an intima,on OF his rea
dness to enlist-by leaving his warm bed beCor,
day to see his Excellency take the cars. lie ia now
reaping the reward OF his subservency. IL would
have been too palpable and bare faced, if he had
forthwith received his compensation. II las come
at last and IN good season,-ior the times are hard
the Banks are costive, and brother Fisk is max
Ing a diversion IN rHE party, which renders Govern
ment pap Indispensable.
Ii Is obvious that Mr.. Tyler is making a "Je,d
set" at the Locofoco party through their presses.
II he en- buy up these. he fancies that the pa,,v
must follow. Iii, nice conscience opposes no bar
rer to this dolectablc scheme II has been .nnounc
cd, by authority, that the Administration MUST have
party and as il has merits TO create one. i,
must rely upon its patronage to buy one.
The annexed article from the N. York Courier.
throws some light upon this subject. IL appears
that the convicted beller Of the Herald ia rs install,
ed IN royal favour, and in conjunction with tho
Richmond Enquirer, constitutes one of the stipen
diary presses Of the Administration.
From the N. Y. Courier
We learn from source which admits of no ouo,-
tion that the President OF the United States il sbon,
maturing an arrangement, which he. with his usual
foresight considers perfectly certain TO secure b;.
election TO the Presidency in lsii.
A gentleman now in Washington informs us ,b,,
AT the request Of person in the confidence of Cant
Tyler person connected with the Penny P,ess
OF ono OF our large cities, was authorized 10 make
oyertures TO his contemporaries in the three cities
oil Boston, New York and Phladelphin To un;,e i,
the support of John Tyer's Administrator On
condition that they should become the recipients of
the Presidents patronage And he further assure,
u.s. that the individual alluded to- has actually visit,
CD washington on this business, and been mos,
graclousy received by the Executive.
We have also the details of this movement, beco,e
us, together with the names of the parties who boyc
asSented TO the arrangement; and our readers will
very soon become applied ola copar,nership between
me editor OF the Herald in this city and n Will
know individual, which will open their eve, N tho
truth OF what Is now in contemplation. The Her.
aid oil last Saturday, contained the 6rs: notice of
sale OF Public Lands ever advertised in this c;,v
and this large advertisement of Land Sale in In;
nos ordered to be published for the period of three
months. This worthy organ of Tyersm. with lie
usual impudence, accompanied its first insertion "a;
leading article calling the attention Of Euronean
Capitalists TO the sale and in a semi official tone
INFORMS them, that I'm consequence Of the delay in
Congress IN providing for the deficiency in the
treasury by the imposition OF Taxes, the Govern.
ment OF the United States is almost out of fndsn-
that "it wants money and must have it, 81, there
tore, throws into the market large quantity of lis
valuable real estate" 10
The next annuncation in the Herald. will bc
mat the new office fitting up for that establishment
al the corner OF Ann street, is to be sustained nv
The patronage Of President Tyler that job p,in,ins
10 an enormous amount, is 10 be there executed for
the Government and that distinguished friend
late an enemy is TO be associated with him.
we shall not at present, go further into this mott,
Die scheme TO buy up the Penny Press bnt VIC
predict It will prove a total failure Already has
the proposition been rejected where rejection was
,east anticipated and this last resort of Tvlcrism
Is not only destined 10 be signal failure bnt those
who pretend to be Mr.. Tyer's friends and hnve
some knowledge OF the people, will tell hin, ,b,r !,
wac sAn-.i~-i - f~iiy ad madness ana That eyen
the parties sought TO be bought upr had agreed To
the proposed arrangement, it would not have secur
cd HIM an additional supporter among the People.
