THE ONE MAN POW Err.

After all the camors about the one man pow
er, as exercised by the President, who is elect
ed by the whole People, we find the noisy oppo-
nents OF the power in theory, the most Jealous
advocates of il in practice, and using II IN the
most studied capriciousness of manner on a
subject deeply affecting important interests o.
the nation We find member reserving his
vote till the list of the members voting by the
ayes and noes had been gone through-he and
his friends keeping taly--in order to ascertain
on which side his one man power should be eX-
ered The one man power was thus exercis-
ed. " again find the Speaker first exercising
the power in producing negative, and then
exercising tt to allow certain members to vote
when their right was doubtful.
Wewlll not pretend to enumerate allthe instan-
ces of the exercise of that power which occurred
on that one day when the Tarifibill was astpass-
ed. but we think that the votes and the man9uvres
TO fix the result, demon,tra the necessity,
without farther argument, of vesung negative
power in the President, to be exercised not on
" in cases of constitutional objections but
aohen deep and pitdlinterests are inuolued.-
A single member of Congress, no matter what
his intellect, may influence the action OF the
House on a question ofvital interest. We must
remember specially that, on all such questions,
the majority is generally very small, and that
majority, however small, produced sometimes
by log-rolling or trickery. Is any farther proof
necessary of the foresight OF the trainers OF the
Constitution, who gave modified negative
mower to the officer elected by the whole People,
instead of leaving an absolute negative to
member of Congress chosen for a single district!
Notwithstanding the newborn zeal against The
Presidential negative, facts daily occurring
nrove the wisdom of the Institution.

MIR. ARNOLD'S POPULARITY.

Our friend MIR. Arnold has shown much anxl-
ETY. to bring up his retrenchment bill. On every
occasion he has alluded to it, in one form or an
other. On every motion to go into Committee
of the Whole, he has given notice that he
would move TO take up his bill. He has even
offered resolution, on the gag principle, fixing
the time when debate on his bill in Committee
of the Whole should cease. His efforts at noto-
riely are earnest and unceasng But we fear
he does not act in such a manner as to prove
that his exertons in the cause of retrenchment
are sincere. We say this in kindness.
In the first place, as we have already noted,
he voted for the resolution to supply himself
with large lot of fine books, the price of which
would be more than equivalent to the loss he
would incur at the next session under his own
bill
Secondly he voted against the extra allow
ance TO the clerks, messengers and pages, or
lodged the vote. Now, we have formed no
opinion on the proprlety of granting these al
lowances but we think Mr.. Arnold selfshly
Inconsistent i'll voting an extra allowance to
himself and refusing il to those who have been
subjected by the extraordinary length of the
session, to extra work.
We have but to add, as our thirdly juxta
usum, something on another subject. We will
trouble Mr. Arnold no more from this date
henceforward, unless, per impossible, he should
| by some act now unhoped for, prove himsel
worthy of notice We cannot befriend him
when his own peculiar friends refuse to lent
him helping hand and even assail him. A
few days since, Mr.. Fessenden gave him a
courteous lecture on his offciousness-by which
lecture we had chartably opned he would have
| been bettered. But he seems too obtuse fo
lessons of reformation, and has sunk entirely
beneath the respect of his own party as was
cvinced yesterday while the House was in
committee of the whole.
Mr.. Arnold was very restih, but his friends
would not join him-so fallen was he, i
fall were possible. He called for tellers, ant
voted in minority OF one to 1870. He appealed
from the decision of the chairman, when Mr.
Payne, of Alabama, suggested that the appea
could not be entertained by the Chair unless
there was a second. A second could not b,
found, even among his friends, for poor for
| saken Arnold

ROMANTIC ATTEMPT AT SELF-DESTRUC-
TJON

A letter from a friend in Sturbrdge, Massachu-
sets informs US of a rather romantic attempt at
self-destruction which occurred in that town last
week The subject of it young lady some
sixteen year. old named Mary Porter, who resided
in the family Of the Rev Mr.. Austin. Miss Porter
had for some time, for not stated, been
subject to an unfortunate depression Of spirits, her
melancholy at times bordering upon an alienation OF
reason but the maady had never been considered so
serious To render It necessary to keep any parueu
lar restraint upon her. She was much in the habit
she was generally attended by some member OF the
amil, but occasionally she went upon those excur-
sions unattended without any apprehensons lor her
safety being entertained On the occasion referred
to she rode off alone, and was expected, with all
confidence back to breakfast. But the breakfast
bour mast as did several succeeding hours, without
her return, or any intelligence respecting her.
Toward noon the family became alarmed, and sew
eral started in pursuit of her. Among the number
was lad who about three miles from the house ouhd
the horse upon which she rode out, but without any
rider. grazing by the road side. The boy returned
with the horse to the house and Mr. Austin, with our
informant pursued their search in the direction IN
which the horse was found. Several hours, ho"eV-
err were vainly spent in the search; but al last tbe
Young lady was discovered by them perched on
rock In the middle Of shallow stream which courses
in that vicinity There she was, denuded oil her
riding habit and dripping with water. lhey hur-
red TO her and led her to the shore and she then
informed them that she had taken herself to the water
with the intention Of drowning herself, and ma two
efforts 10 do So but had found the water too shallow
She had mounted the rock to look for deeper water
when she was discovered, and happily rescued
She was forthwith conducted home, and with all
practicable despatch placed in the Asylum at Wor-
lester.

VETO NO. w.


John Tyler has again firmly met, and nobly and
and periodically discharged the high and responsible
duties of his station. He has promptly vetoed the
Tariff and Distribution bill which the Clay Wings IN
Congress- under the dictation of the " One Man
Power" at Ashland, passed and sent to him in snch
a shape to compel him TO withhold his signature,
dishonor himself and his Office by the tame surren-
der OF his avowed and well-known principles, at The
shrine of Presdent-making Congress to the great
detrment of the public interests. The Clay papers
may and will rail at this independent and manly
course Of President Tyler, but it will meet with the
hearty applause of large majority OF the American
people, who, fast the elections occur, are,
through the balloboxes, placing their seal oil con-
demnation upon the Wing cabal in Congress, who, for
twelve months, have been squandering the peoples
money, at the tune of eight dollars per day. IN I'M
awaiting attempts to head Capt. Tyler" and pro-
mote the aspirations Of Henry Clay for next Presl-
dent.
The reasons given by the President are perfectly
conclusive of the business and proPrey OF ms e1ei
else of the po err and they ought to put the whole
wing party to the blush II is the President who has
been consistent aud the wings who have been ncon-
ssent this subject Of the Tariff and Distbui ION.
AT the extra session, these same wings IN Congress
passed distribution bill which provided that the aoi
should be suspended and imperative whenever the ne
cessites of the Treasury should require the tarh to
be raised above 20 per CENT but now they have pa sed
a tariff bill raising the dates above 20 per cent, IN
which they have inserted provision that the distrbu-
ton bill shall not be suspended and nopeI alive ac-
cording TO It's terms as II passed and became law at
the session. The President, therefore, has pre-
served his consistency by the Veto and brought the
wings back the policy they established at the extra
session in regard to the Tariff and Distribution. Let
him hold the wings there he doubtless WILL and he
will receive the cheering swell done" of the people

GENERAL SCOTT AND THE TREATY,

From the note appended, We are gratihed to
find that we were wrong in imputing hos
tilily on the part of General Scott to the treaty
lust ratified by the Senate. We were led into
error by the assertions OF exchange papers on
our table, and the assurance OF one or two
friends occupying such positions as to entite
their statements respecting the Generals sentl-
ments in this matter TO uuhesitating belief; but
they, too, must by some means have been led
into error.
1t is hardly necessary TO say that we do take
pleasure in being thus enabled TO do the Genera
Justice We will add that we are panied TO
think we did him injustice, however uninlen-
uonally:

ty fully committed To the one. term principle, and
could not consistently support him. He then looked
elsewhere for aid. The loco focos broken by their
recent defeat were anxious To produce divisions In
the wing ranks, and promised Mr.. Tyler the desired
support. Hence the two hank vetoes and the break
ing up the first cabinet.
We appeal TO any honest political opponent
to say whether il is just aud proper for any of
fcer under the President, 10 build up and sus-
tain the journals that defame and calumnlale
